MEET YOUR COMPANION

A familiar face
while you wait.

With paid access, her pose and daily words change as your event approaches. Explore three moments from the app, at your own pace.

And whenever you want, take a moment to breathe with her. No timer to beat. No right way to do it. Breathing is always free.

WHEN THERE ISN’T A DAY TO COUNT TOWARDS

Some waits
have no date.

Waiting for results. For a call. For an answer you can’t hurry along.

You can save a wait without a date for free. It stays in the room as a still preview. Paid access adds changing words and optional check-ins, without asking you to choose an end date.

No date to keep.
The cat waits too.

A wait with no date: the cat lies by the door and the app says Still waiting. No date to keep. The cat waits too.

A PERSONAL LITTLE SPACE

Your wait.
Your own space.

No account to create. Your event names, dates and descriptions stay on your device. Calendar access and notifications are optional.

How your information is handled
Can I use Gentle Now without an internet connection?

Yes. The room, breathing and locally saved events work offline. Purchases and restoring purchases need an internet connection. Paid access can use the last store confirmation saved on your phone while offline; reconnect for entitlement checks and to confirm renewals. An expired trial or pass does not stay active indefinitely.

Can I use it when I don’t know the date?

Yes. Save an undated wait for free as a still preview. With paid access, the waiting companion offers changing words and optional check-ins without counting down to a date.

What is Gentle Now?

Gentle Now is a calm companion for the days before something important. A ginger cat, a quiet room, and a moment to breathe give you somewhere to return while you wait.

Who is it for?

It is for the days before an appointment, a procedure, an exam, an interview, a flight, or important news. You can also save a wait that has no date.

What can I use for free?

The room, the cat, breathing, help resources, and saving an event as a still preview are free. You can come back to what you saved without buying a plan.

What does a paid plan add?

A paid plan adds the living companion: the cat and daily words change as your day comes closer, or keep you company in a wait without a date. Quiet check-ins and calendar suggestions are also included if you choose to enable them.

Is Gentle Now for iPhone and Android?

Gentle Now is made for iPhone and Android. Purchases belong to the Apple or Google account used to buy them. Access does not automatically transfer between stores.

Do I need an account?

No. There is no Gentle Now account to create. Your saved event details stay on your device.

How do I cancel?

Cancel a yearly subscription in Google Play or your App Store subscription settings. On the App Store, cancel at least 24 hours before renewal. The One-Month Pass does not renew. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription.

Is it therapy?

No. Gentle Now is company, not treatment. It isn’t medical care, therapy, mental health treatment, or a crisis service. If you need a person to talk to, the app’s settings include “Need to talk to someone?”, which opens a directory of help resources.

Something else on your mind? We’re here to help.
