About this app

Ready for a lifestyle that prioritizes health and wellness?
Ready for living with more energy and focus?
Keen to have better sleep, improve mood and body composition?
How about balancing your hormones naturally?

The answer? Do your daily activities at the optimal time for your body.
Anchor your life to sunrise and sunset to optimize your circadian rhythm.

Circadian rhythm, biorhythms & chronobiology: the science🔬

Your body's circadian rhythms are 24-hour cycles of biological, hormonal, and behavioural patterns. This biorhythm modulates a wide array of physiological processes, including your hormones (i.e. melatonin), sleep, hunger, and metabolism, ultimately regulating body weight, performance, mood and susceptibility to disease. As such, your circadian rhythm has profound implications for well-being and longevity.

The 2017 Nobel prize in Medicine was given for research on circadian rhythms. Circadian clocks in almost all of your cells govern cellular functioning. When you disrupt your circadian clocks, chaos, inflammation, and disease are consequences.

Circadian is your app for applying circadian rhythms and living more naturally. Circadian uses local times (i.e. sunrise and sunset) plus user settings to calculate your circadian rhythm, also known as biorhythm. Optimize light, exercise and food timing to finally live better. Harmonize your life with the natural cycles, and let yourself be surprised!

Set reminders & alarms for critical circadian events to live well 🔔
In line with natural cycles, like light & dark and seasonal changes, Circadian provides reminders & alarms to operate on your optimal biorhythm. Start syncing your sleep cycle with nature and be active when you are meant to. Use Circadian as a daily schedule to live well. Set reminders for:
○ daybreak, sunrise, solar noon, sunset and nightfall
○ ultraviolet light rise and fall (UVA and UVB)
○ sleep and wake times
○ natural eating and fasting
○ morning and peak exercise
○ peak cognition

Adjust your sleep with the seasons💤
Your biorhythms govern daily functioning, while seasonal rhythms affect longer-term behavioural & metabolic changes. Circadian adjusts your sleep duration dynamically based on your location. Let your biorhythm become the schedule that keeps you in sync with natural cycles, balances hormones (ie cortisol & melatonin), and leads to better sleep. Your internal natural cycles & hormonal ebb & tides will be harmonized as a by-product.

Include fasting in your daily schedule 🍴
Eating and fasting are important cues for your biorhythms. Aligning your eating time with circadian rhythms is essential to balancing hormones, lowering inflammation, preventing/reversing disease and better sleep.

Understand and learn with Circadian 💡
Why is daylight (via UVA light) the first step to make melatonin?
Why is sunshine essential for your hormonal balance and health?
Why is an indoor lifestyle an on-switch for stress hormones?
Find these and many other answers with Circadian!
The learn section provides carefully curated in-depth content, practical suggestions & many surprises.
Learn about circadian rhythm, light (sunlight, UVA, UVB, red/infrared & artificial light), melatonin, sleep, grounding & much more.

Still doubtful? ☝️
Consider that circadian disruptions are linked to almost every modern disease, from diabetes to cancer. Don't believe it? Search: "shift work" or "circadian rhythm" plus a disease name.

What does Circadian cost? 💵
Circadian offers a 7-day free trial + a limited free version after that. Prices for the full version vary based on the country/region.

💚 See sunrise & sunset, bathe in more daylight, make the nights dark again, build a strong sleep / natural cycle and experience harmony with your environment.
⚡ Live well and achieve holistic health by optimizing your hormones via circadian rhythms.

I like a lot of what this app does, so I bought a lifetime license.... But, it seems to be missing a major feature which is to be able to best schedule a nap based on circadian cycles. It would also be really great to have a connection to smartwatch sensors to help adjust settings, based on how the body is responding.

Thanks for your review, Jacob. You will be able to add custom events (ie nap) with the next major release (September 23). If you have any specific suggestions regarding adjusting settings based on measurements, please send an email to supporet@circadian.life. Mind your rhythm, mind your light ☀️

Had trouble at first with the subscription, but it seems to be fixed. Great app, but still needs further development. First, the startup splash screen is a little annoying. It would be nice if that were optional. What I would like to see even more is a widget showing all the different parameters in the circular map found in the app. Would make an excellent widget to keep track of all the parameters. And highlight and specify by name the parameters that are active at that point in time.

The app has great educational content and health articles. The notifications and alarms are also helpful. I travel full time so I have to update when I go to a new time zone manually. Otherwise, the notifications are off. Great app for helping get into a better flow with your circadian rhythms and education on the whys behind it.

Thank you for your review, Amy🙏 Great that Circadian is helpful to you. Yes, changing locations currently requires the user to press auto-locate again or load the new location manually. Automatic auto-location is on our list of future features. I appreciate your patience. Many thanks, Bastian | Team Circadian
