Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the Headspace Apple Watch® app, and what can I do with it?
The Headspace Apple Watch app lets you play meditations, sleepcasts, and a breathing exercise, all on your wrist — without having to use your phone screen. Using signals like heart rate variability, Headspace finds the right moments for you to pause and reset throughout your day.
- Which Apple Watch models are compatible with the Headspace app?
The Headspace Apple Watch app works with Apple Watch Series 6 through Series 11, Apple Watch SE (2nd and 3rd generation), and Apple Watch Ultra, Ultra 2, and Ultra 3, running WatchOS 26.1 or greater. On newer Apple Watch models (Series 10+, Ultra, and SE 2+), members can experience fully phone-free audio playback directly from their wrist. Please note that Apple Watch Series 5 and earlier, and Apple Watch SE (1st generation), aren’t supported.
- What iPhone model and iOS version do I need to use the Headspace Apple Watch app?
You’ll need an iPhone 11 or later (or an iPhone SE 2nd generation or later) running iOS 26 or above.
- What is the haptic breathing exercise, and how does it work?
A haptic breathing exercise is a 60-second guided breathing session that uses gentle vibrations on your wrist to lead you through each breath. You’ll feel soft taps as you breathe in for 4 seconds, and again as you breathe out for 4 seconds. It’s designed to help you find a moment of calm, even when you can’t listen to audio or look at your screen.
