A prompt to build your own version of Headspace

Written by the checker for a first version. Paste it into Vibecode as is, or change it to make the app yours.

Your Headspace-style app, first version

Build an iPhone app for people who want guided meditations and sleep sounds to wind down. The main screen should show two sections, Meditate and Sleep, with simple cards showing each track's title, length, and short description. Tapping a meditation opens an audio player with play, pause, and seek controls. Tapping a sleep sound opens a player that loops the sound and lets me set a sleep timer. Support background playback when the screen locks. Use soft blue and cream colors, large readable text, and a calm, uncluttered style. Include realistic sample session data and placeholder audio for the first build, ready to replace with my own recordings.

Opens Vibecode with this prompt ready. Your first build is free.

What a homemade Headspace won't have

Headspace gives people its own recorded meditations, familiar teachers and original sleepcasts, plus courses developed with sleep scientists.

  • Headspace's recorded meditation catalog
  • Original Headspace sleepcasts
  • Headspace teachers' recorded guidance
  • Scientist developed sleep courses
