Eight free. More when you want them.

Two moments in every state are free, with no limit on repeat visits. One optional Full Library purchase unlocks the other eight. No subscription.

Music, sounds and history are included for everyone. The purchase price varies by App Store country or region.

Sound, on your terms

A little music.
Or none at all.

Choose from four soundscapes. Adjust the music, touch sounds and completion sound separately. Haptics are optional too. All audio is included on your device.

A little perspective

Find a moment
worth returning to.

After an activity, leave feedback or simply move on. Your history helps you revisit moments you liked. Suggestions come from your choices, not from guessing how you feel.

Yours to keep

No account.
No audience.

Your history and preferences stay on your device. No ads or analytics tracking. The activities work offline, and you can delete your history in Settings.

A few practical things

Before you begin.

Where can I download Back Online?

Back Online is available on the App Store. It is designed for iPhone and requires iOS 17 or later. Download it for free and start with eight moments.

Do I need an account or a subscription?

No. Eight moments are free without an app account. Full Library is an optional one-time purchase, not a subscription. Apple handles the purchase through your Apple Account.

Can I use it without an internet connection?

Yes. Activities, bundled audio and local history work offline. Buying or restoring Full Library requires a connection to Apple.

What if a moment isn't for me?

You can leave at any time, choose something else, or stop for the day. There is no streak to lose. Breathe naturally and stop an activity if it feels uncomfortable.

About the research

Inspired by research.
Not a treatment.

Research on brief breaks, breathing and attention informs the design. These exact activities and audio tracks have not been clinically validated. Back Online is for everyday wellbeing, not medical diagnosis or treatment.

Read about micro-breaks and structured breathing. Research & credits in the app explains what each source does and does not support.

A pause. Then your next thing.

Eight free moments. No account. No subscription.

One optional purchase unlocks all sixteen moments.
