FAQ

  • Breezy's vibrations are not meant to feel too strong. We don’t want them to be jarring, like you’re receiving a phone call. But we still want to give you some tips to feel the vibrations more strongly:

    • Make sure the Intensity slider is set to 100.

    • Your phone case might not be transmitting the vibrations very well, either because of the type of material or the thickness. Try removing the case.

    • Try moving the phone around on your chest or other body part to find a spot that resonates the strongest. You’ll typically find that the spot is directly on your sternum, just above your solar plexus.

    • The bottom 1/3 of the phone is the part that resonates the strongest. Make sure that the bottom portion of the phone is touching the spot on your chest where it resonates the strongest.

    • Try using Breezy with your hand holding the phone in addition to having the phone on your chest.

    • Try using Breezy with your hand holding the phone on its side while on your chest.

    • After you hit “Play” on a vibration, the play icon turns into a pause icon. Check your phone and make sure that you didn’t accidentally hit “Pause”.

    • Some phone cases don’t transmit vibrations very well, either because of the type of material or the thickness. You may want to try taking the phone out of its case.

    • Breezy is not intended for use while lying on your side. If you sleep on your side but want to use Breezy to help you fall asleep, we recommend that you use Breezy while laying on your back and then put the phone away and turn on your side to fall asleep.

  • Yes, Breezy works perfectly in Airplane Mode (no data connection required).

    If you have concerns about unwanted radiation, you can turn on Airplane Mode.

  • Absolutely. Breezy can still be effective even if you just hold the phone in your hand.

  • You may be receiving text messages, emails, or phone calls while using Breezy. These may cause vibrations in your phone that interrupt Breezy’s vibrations. We recommend that you put your phone in Do Not Disturb or Airplane mode while using Breezy so that you don’t experience these other vibrations.

  • Pure Vibrations are experiences that only have haptic vibrations. There is no guided narration, sound, etc. like the experiences in the Guided Meditation section.

  • Guided meditation is a structured meditation practice where a teacher or practitioner leads the participant through a session. The teacher's voice and instructions help the participant focus on the present and the meditation's objectives.

    Guided meditation can be beneficial for both beginners and experienced meditators. Here are some common elements of guided meditation:

    • Progressive relaxation: The teacher leads the participant through a progressive relaxation, focusing on breathing and releasing muscle tension.

    • Guided imagery: The teacher leads the participant through mental images that promote physical and psychological well-being.

    • Soothing sound: Sounds are included in order to provide an audio aid to the meditation. The sounds can be instructive, soothing, or grounding.

    The Guided Meditations in Breezy add the element of haptic vibrations that are timed to the soothing sound in order to create the most immersive and effective experience.

  • Not much, no, but it depends on how long you use it for.

    The haptic vibrations themselves are extremely low-energy and barely drain the battery.

    The most battery drain is caused by the screen being on. You can use Breezy with your phone face-down on your body for the lowest battery usage since the screen will turn off. If your screen is on, it won’t use any more battery than other apps, and likely even less since the app is optimized for minimal battery drain.

    We also don’t recommend using Breezy for more than 15 minutes at a time.

  • We recommend the Apollo Neuro. It’s a wearable device for your wrist, ankle, or clip to your clothing, that is scientifically tested and proven to improve your health for a variety of factors. It is meant for all day and night use and can help you fall asleep as well as stay asleep. The vibrations on the Apollo Neuro can be much stronger that what you get from the phone with Breezy.
