Dotfade

Dotfade

A 5-minute visual reset when you're stuck.

When stress builds up and your attention won't settle.

What happens

1

You press Start

2

A scene slowly appears, dot by dot

3

You breathe and count cycles while it runs

Dotfade doesn't try to calm you down — it just gives your attention something steady to stay with.

Why it's different

Not a habit

You don't need streaks or discipline. Use it only when you're stuck. This matters when stress makes routines feel heavy.

No guidance

No instructions during the session. Nothing to "do right". Guidance often increases pressure when you're already tense.

Stats are optional

Numbers are there only to notice change. You can skip them entirely.

If this doesn't help right now, close it. Nothing is lost.

Why sign in (optional)

  • New scenes over time
    Different images appear as you come back. No repeats by default.
  • Your counts are saved
    Only if you want to look back. You can skip this every time.
  • Patterns, not scores
    See how your breathing cycles change — without goals or streaks.
