3.1

July 11, 2020

Simplified the post-sit message when Airplane mode is still on.  Now you just need to turn off Airplane mode, and don't need to press a second button to recheck that it's off. It now also shows a confirmation message when your Friend Notifications sends out. Be happy :-)

3.0

June 4, 2020

NEW, MUCH REQUESTED: More Goenka recordings! Fully integrated with the rest of the app, so you still get a simple Countdown timer, easy History tracking, and powerful Friend Notifications to stay connected with fellow meditators. Huge thanks to everyone who wrote in suggesting these. I've found them really great. Hope you do too.

2.8

May 27, 2020

Improved Daily Reminders! The Daily Reminder notifications will now only fire if you haven't sat in the day yet. Or twice-yet for the PM reminder, if you have both AM & PM turned on. These reminders will also now add a '1' badge to the homescreen app icon, so it's easier to see you still haven't met your goal for the day. Other improvements: ‧ Friend notifications now include "with chanting" or "with extended mettā" or both. ‧ Improvements to the look of History List and Calendar, and the post-sit Airplane Mode reminder. ‧ Added check to make sure your name isn't set to 'null' before sending out Friend Notifications.

Reviews of Goenka Timer

  • Potential bug

    I Used the app first time today on my iOS device . iOS version 16.5.1 (c)
    I set the meditation timer for 55mins including chanting and 4 min mitta. Even after 60 mins, I still did not hear anything while meditating, and realized that the timer stopped running sometime midway and was still on for another 18mins. Both the end chanting and mitta started playing the same time at that moment. Also when I tried to stop it, the audio kept playing in the background . I had to kill the app to stop it.
    I like the app overall and would like to use it daily but can’t with this broken functionality
  • Unable to turn on metta

    I use this everyday and for our weekly group sit. Unfortunately the extended metta in/off button appears on top of the calendar. So if I try to turn it on it takes me to the calendar page. Would love to see this change so I can end my sit with recorded metta.
  • Good with an issue

    The sound recordings disappear when the app is quit. They have to be downloaded each time you listen to them.
