Meditation
Love being able to use my own photos. Easy to use and flexible. Great app
Use every day
Simple app, that does exactly what I need. Interval noises help keep me focused and let me know when I'm done without being to harsh or annoying. If your making the tradition from guided meditation to meditating with no guidance this is a great app to have.
Simple
A good simple app.
Very good
Very good app. Easy to use with intuitive design. Nice small bells sound to signal start and finish of meditation time and a lower sound every five minutes, to keep your concentration on track.
Only problem is that although the sounds are authentic sounding enough, their resonant vibration lasts only three to four seconds and then stops, which gives it a very artificial/unnatural feel when you're meditating. The resonance of a normally struck instrument such as these would last much longer, maybe 30 seconds, with a natural, slow fade. This does matter because the sudden cessation of the sound is actually quite intrusive to meditating. Allowing it to continue and fade naturally would enhance the meditation.
Would be excellent if app developers could consider revising this aspect.

One of the better timers out there. Simple and works
Good timer that actually works
Does what it says.
Excellent.
An excellent app. Highly recommended.
Very flexible settings, with lots of options, simple to use, and visually pleasing. I find it particularly useful for metta (loving-kindness) meditation because I can have 'preparation' time, then a main period split into 5 sections, then a final 'all beings' section. Being able to choose a different sound (bell, bowl or tingshas) for each transition, and whether it sounds 1,2 or 3 times is really helpful for keeping track! Of course, the app is also useful for much simpler meditation formats.
The only thing I'd want changed is better quality sound for bell and tingshas - they're rather tinny.
