Universal Breath App

Yoga breathing exercises, pranayamas

Universal Breath App launched on December 26, 2023 with 81 votes, #678 of 3,780 launches that month and more than 50% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 2 years on.

What it does

Designed to replace the teacher who counts aloud and marks the moments of breaths, delays, and exhalations. Now you can turn on the app after your yoga practice and it will count for you. Or you can practice pranayama independently.

Choose a level of difficulty from 1 to 4 and then a practice time from 1 to 10 minutes. That's it, you are ready to start taking the first steps in mastering the breathing technique called pranayama.

Breathing exercises trigger your body’s relaxation response, helping to reverse the stress-driven “fight or flight” mode. Deep, steady breaths slow your heart rate, lower blood pressure, and reduce cortisol — bringing a real sense of calm. Breathing exercises help you tune into your body and mind. Focusing on your breath builds awareness of how you feel — physically and emotionally — and gives you more control over your reactions. Regular breathing exercises can boost your lung capacity and overall function. Deep breathing supports better oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange, which can be especially helpful for people with asthma or COPD. Athletes and active people can gain a real edge from…from universalbreath.app

  • Hi HN! I’m proud to share that we have built a real 3rd party iMessage client for Android. We did it by reverse engineering the iMessage protocol and encryption system. It's available to download today (no waitlist): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.beeper.ima and there's a technical writeup here: https://blog.beeper.com/p/how-beeper-mini-works. Unlike every other attempt to build an iMessage app for Android (including our first gen app), Beeper Mini does not use a Mac server relay in the cloud. The app connects directly to Apple…

  • Hey! I made Heynote entirely for my own use case. For many years, I always had an Emacs instance running with the scratch buffer open, even long after I had abandoned Emacs as my programming editor in favor of more recent IDE:s. The simplicity of having just one big scratch buffer appeals to me, but I still want to separate the different things I jot down somehow (without using tabs or similar). Previously, my solution was to insert a bunch of blank lines between the notes, but hitting C-A would still select the entire buffer. That's why I came up with the concept of "blocks", which turned…
