When we had the breathe app you could setup hourly reminders to breathe. Now that it’s been pushed into this mindfulness app we’ve lost that option. You can only select at the start of day and end of day. Then you can manually set times. What am I supposed to do? Add an hourly reminder manually for each hour??

Ok. I figured out a work around if anyone else has this problem. Apparently the reminders app has an hourly reminder option. So what I’ve done is set a reminder hourly to breathe. And another one to go off every 3 hours to do some journaling and log my mood etc.
Its too bad though that Apple took this feature away without giving much thought to the user experience. They spend so much time and money on what’s new with the updates but not so much on what’s been taken away and possible workarounds. If you think about it though it would also be a great opportunity to ”promote” some other apps in the App Store. Like hey! We took this feature away but here’s a work around and here’s some apps that do the thing we took away - please check them out. They could charge for that ”referral” and make lotsa lotsa money. But hey what do I know.

You are correct.
Add a reminder for every hour you want it to sound.
Wow. What a great age of AI and automation we live in.
Thanks anyway for the response.
Can't set hourly reminders for the Mindfulness app on Apple Watch
