Breathable
Breathable is a Mac air quality app that shows AQI readings, historical trends, and customizable widgets across Apple devices.
What is Breathable?
Breathable is an air quality app for Mac that helps users check local and saved Air Quality Index readings at a glance. It is designed for people who want quick visibility into outdoor air conditions, whether for daily routines, health awareness, or planning time outside. The app supports automatic location as well as manual location lookup, so you can monitor the air where you are or follow conditions in other places. Breathable also provides historical AQI charts and synced reading history, making it useful for tracking trends over time instead of viewing only a single current value. On macOS, it works alongside desktop widgets and a menu bar extra for faster access. Breathable is published by Karbon and is also available on other Apple platforms with iCloud syncing for shared setup and history.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
Breathable is a legitimate weather app focused on air quality information. Location access is normal if you want automatic readings for where you are, and the app can also be used with manually selected locations instead. It may store synced history and settings through iCloud so your data is available across devices. If you do not want location-based updates, turn off location access and use saved or manually searched places.
Recommendation: Keep Breathable if you use it to monitor air quality, widgets, or menu bar readings on your Mac. If you no longer check AQI data or use its cross-device syncing and widgets, you can remove it without affecting macOS itself.
