I just bought it, the microphone doesn’t seem to do a lot (and I don’t gave access to camera) but I will try it out later.

It’s a well thought app. The core function is really good, I will enjoy trying out the different exercises! The design of the homescreen could be better, looks a bit cluttered.

Maybe some background information if it takes off in the future would be nice for people who don’t know the science behind each breath type.

Other than that, I wish you success!

Have a quick look here if you think the mic input is not working correctly: https://www.lungy.app/how-to. If that doesn't help, please send a message to - hello [at] lungy dot app

I agree the home screen could be clearer and the layout could be improved on the exercises to include more info. Thank you for the feedback!

It's not fair to judge the microphone when you didn't use the camera to position it correctly.

There is an exact distance and tilt the phone needs to get the best sound, and its not really possible to nail that without the help of the camera.
