Changelog

What changed, in plain words.

3.1

September 2026

  • Hear every voice. Tap any sound or voice theme in Settings to hear a short sample, the Sylph Pro ones included.
  • The pattern builder keeps seven patterns of your own.
  • More from Zone7 Studios. Settings gains a page of the other Zone7 Studios apps, each one a tap from its website, and a Share this app button.
  • About links the privacy, terms and support pages, this site and the open-source licences Sylph is built with.

3.0

September 2026

  • Sylph Pro's two voices, Sylph and Mina, say "Let's begin" at the start of every session.
  • Icon buttons across the app read out their names for screen readers.
  • Tablet layouts sit a little wider.
  • We receive anonymous usage stats. The privacy page says what they are.
  • Bug fixes and stability improvements.

2.9

September 2026

  • A voice to guide you. Sylph Pro can speak to you: pick Voice: Sylph or Voice: Mina and a calm voice leads you through each phase, opening a session with "Let's begin" and closing it with "Well done" when it ends on its own.
  • Sound plays by default on a fresh install, so your chosen theme is there from the first session.

2.8

August 2026

  • The Lantern theme takes your chosen orb colour.
  • Bug fixes and stability improvements.

2.7

August 2026

  • Make it yours. App colour themes restyle every screen: the classic Sylph look stays free, and Sylph Pro adds Moss, Rose, Gold, Violet and Lagoon.
  • A sixth visual theme, Cove, gives you a still night cove whose waterline rises and falls with your breath.
  • Visual themes show live previews, and tapping a haptic or sound theme plays a short sample.
  • Session text can sit left, centre or out of the way, in three typefaces.
  • Your look follows you to the TV when you cast.

2.5

July 2026

  • Sylph opens with a short Zone7 Studios ident on a fresh launch. One tap skips it, and it does not play when you come back mid-session.
  • The launch icon eases into place on the opening splash.
  • Sylph is up to date with Android 16.

2.3

July 2026

  • Breathe sideways. Follow the orb in landscape on a tablet by the bed, a phone on a stand or a foldable half-open.
  • A session in progress does not skip a breath when you turn the screen.
  • The layout keeps clear of camera notches either way up.

2

July 2026

  • Breathe on the big screen. Sylph Pro can cast your session to a Google Cast TV, in every theme and colour, with the phase cues, the countdown and the timer.
  • Your phone stays the guide in your hand, and both screens stay in step to the tenth of a second.
  • Finish a session and the TV shows the same gentle tally your phone does.

1.1

July 2026

  • Picking a rhythm happens in one flow: tap a technique and it opens right there, with the session lengths and Begin inside.
  • Ending a session is clearer, with a visible End button, a quick two-second fade and a second tap to finish immediately.
  • The orb comes in eight free colours, from the original Air blue to Aurora green, Dawn rose and Ember.

1.0

July 2026

  • Four free breathing techniques (Box, 4-7-8, Coherent, Relax), and seven more with Sylph Pro.
  • A custom pattern builder with six saved slots.
  • Five visual themes, four haptic themes and four audio themes.
  • Sessions run from 1 minute to "until I stop" with Pro, and finish with a gentle five-second fade.
