How designers use this tool

Coaches

Build the week's team protocol, export a code, drop it in the team Slack. Each athlete runs the same CO₂ table.

Therapists

Prescribe a custom 4-7-8 variant for a client's anxiety profile. They import by code — no email, no attachment.

Vocal instructors

Program a long-phrase breath for a choir. Students paste the code and practice between lessons.

Frequently asked questions

How does the pattern code work?
Each code encodes rounds and per-phase seconds. `r` is rounds, `i` is inhale, `h` is a hold (either in or out), and `o` is exhale. Example: r5i4h4o4h4 means five rounds of 4-second inhale, 4-second hold, 4-second exhale, 4-second hold-out — classic box breathing.
Can I share a design with someone who uses a different language?
Yes. Pattern codes are language-independent. A code generated here plays identically inside BreathMAX in Turkish, Japanese, Arabic, or any of the 20 supported languages.
Do I need an account?
No account, no sign-up. The designer runs entirely in your browser and in BreathMAX locally on your device.
What are the limits?
Up to 14 phase steps per cycle, 1–20 seconds per step, and 1–20 rounds total. Anything inside those bounds is supported by the app.
Can I use the designer on mobile?
Yes, it is fully responsive. However the best workflow is: design on the web, copy the code, paste in BreathMAX on iOS or Android.
