Breathing In Labour
Breathing In Labour is a distraction-free mobile app designed to teach and pace proven breathing techniques for every stage of childbirth. It offers animated visual guides and audio cues for techniques like Box Breathing, Opening Breath, and J-Shaped Breathing. The app operates offline without account requirements or ads, making it accessible during contractions and delivery room use.
What it does
• Guides users through 7 stage-specific breathing exercises via step-by-step animations and visual rhythm pacers. • Operates completely offline without requiring personal user accounts, data collection, or ad placements. • Teaches physiological context behind labor breathing techniques for both early labor dilation and active pushing stages. • Offers optional premium customization for custom breathing intervals, color themes, and relaxing background audio soundscapes.
Why it works
Keeps all core breathing techniques and educational content 100% free without paywalls. Works offline without requiring user sign-ups, ensuring reliability inside hospital delivery rooms. Focuses on visual animation pacing so users can follow rhythms without reading text during active contractions. Monetizes strictly through optional aesthetic customizations like soundscapes and color themes rather than core functionality.

Founder story
Breathing In Labour was created in 2026 by Polish developer Artur Jankowski in Czarnochowice, Poland. While preparing for childbirth with his partner, he realized that remembering breathing counts during intense contractions was difficult. He developed the app as a visual, distraction-free breath coach to help expectant parents effortlessly follow rhythm pacers without reading instructions.
