Apnea Assistant: Freediving

The Apnea Assistant is Hands-Down, the Most Complete Freediving Training App Available!

The Apnea Assistant combines 18 guided CO2/O2 tables, apnea trainer and breathing exercises, including two fully customizable training generators, a free 28-day 4-Minute Challenge for breath-hold training, and 30 in-depth Learning Center articles into one complete freediving training platform.

Built by the Freedive Academy Panglao instructor team, with more than 50 years of combined teaching experience, the Apnea Assistant is a professional freediving training system - not just a simple timer.

Originally developed for our students in Panglao, the app is now available to freedivers worldwide.

NEW: Free 4-Minute Breath-Hold Challenge

Train toward a 4-minute static breath hold with our free 28-day challenge, developed by Freedive Academy Panglao.

Follow a structured training schedule combining CO2 tables, O2 tables, breathing exercises, recovery days, and Personal Best attempts. Throughout the challenge, you'll receive coaching emails explaining each phase of your training, helping you understand not only what to train, but why.

Whether you're preparing for your first beginner freediving course or you're already an experienced freediver, the challenge will help you build consistency, confidence, and a stronger breath hold.
