What is included?

Basic breathing is free: a five-second inhale and five-second exhale, with one-minute sessions. Plus unlocks eight more practices and longer sessions for eligible rhythms.

Choose a weekly or yearly auto-renewable subscription, or a one-time Lifetime purchase. Current prices and subscription periods appear in the app before purchase.

On Android (RuStore), Plus is offered as a monthly or yearly auto-renewable subscription, or a one-time Lifetime purchase without renewal. Prices appear in the app and in RuStore before payment. The terms are in the public offer.

Restore Plus access

On iPhone, use the same Apple Account used for the original purchase. Connect to the internet, then open You or the Plus screen and select Restore purchases. Lifetime access does not expire; access may end if Apple refunds or revokes the purchase.

On Android, sign in to the RuStore app with the same RuStore account you used for the purchase, connect to the internet, then open You or the Plus screen and select Restore purchases. The RuStore app must be installed on the device for purchases and restoring to work.

If your access still does not appear, contact us with the plan name and a description of the issue. Do not send payment credentials.

Manage or cancel a subscription

On your iPhone, open Settings, tap your name, then Subscriptions and select Less Stress. You can also use Manage subscription in the app. Cancelling renewal normally keeps Plus available until the end of the current paid period.

On Android, open the RuStore app, then Profile → Subscriptions → Less Stress → Cancel subscription. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription. After cancelling, Plus stays available until the end of the period you have already paid for.

After Plus ends, Basic one-minute breathing remains available and your local history is retained. Lifetime is a one-time purchase and has no recurring renewal to cancel.

For billing and refund requests, visit Apple’s purchase support. For purchases made through RuStore, refunds follow RuStore’s rules and the public offer; write to us if Plus did not unlock after payment.

Reminders and voice guidance

Set an optional daily reminder in You → Reminder. If it does not appear, check that notifications are allowed for Less Stress in iPhone Settings and review your Focus settings.

Enable Voice in You for spoken phase cues. Check your media volume and audio output, including connected headphones. Haptic feedback depends on device support and system settings.

On Android (RuStore)

Reminders: on Android 13 and later, allow notifications when Less Stress asks after you turn on a reminder. If you declined, open Android settings → Apps → Less Stress → Notifications and allow them. If reminders arrive late or not at all, some Android versions restrict apps in the background to save battery: in Android’s system settings, set battery usage for Less Stress to unrestricted (the name of this setting differs between manufacturers), and check Do Not Disturb.

Language and voice: the Android app follows your device language. When the device language is Russian, the interface and voice cues are in Russian; otherwise they are in English. To switch, change the language in Android settings; if the app still shows the previous language, close and reopen it.

Backups: if backup is turned on in Android, your session history and preferences may be restored with your backup on a new device. Purchases are restored through RuStore, as described above.

History and privacy

Practice history and preferences are stored on your device. Less Stress does not offer accounts or cloud synchronization. You can delete session history in You; deleted history cannot be restored by us.

Read the Privacy Policy for details about local data and Apple purchases, and its Android section for RuStore purchases.

Health and safety

Less Stress supports general wellbeing. It is not a medical device, does not diagnose or treat any condition and does not replace advice from a doctor. Choose a comfortable pace; if you feel dizzy, short of breath or uncomfortable, stop and return to normal breathing. If you have a health condition, ask your doctor before starting breathing exercises.
