Beautiful, Well-Designed

Beautiful to look at, intuitive to use, and truly gratis —this timer is a gift made from hard work, strong design skills, and a pragmatic understanding of what most meditators most need in a timer.

It’s elegant and not cluttered up with in-app purchases and hints that you need to buy them. I love that it’s totally free to everyone but the designer will accept tips, consistent with traditional practice of many of the great meditation teachers who lead meditations for free but accept voluntary offerings from those who want to and can give something in return to support their work.

This is the best app. I’ve found for meditation. The only issue I have is occasionally it doesn’t respond to my iPad or iPhone Bluetooth feature no matter what I do except delete the app and download it again. This gets the Bluetooth connected again…go figure. Just takes a minute. Because of this I have stopped responding negatively to this glitch. It has just become part of my meditation. If I keep expecting the world around me to conform to my expectations it will totally disturb my meditative peace so, I just let go and fix it. It has become a non-issue issue. 😌
Thanks to the developer…great app. 🙏

Really appreciate a truly free app!

This app is beautifully simple, and I feel like it aligns with what meditation should be about.
After having premium membership with Headspace for years I just wasn’t getting much out of it for the extortionate price - so this is much better.
And Thankyou for keeping it truly free!

Works!

Does just what I need when I need it. Recommend.

great app for what it is

UPDATE

I have given one star in the past, but the developer fixed the problem I had after I downloaded iOS 15.3. I haven’t tested to see whether it’s going to remember my settings, but it played my chosen background music and made a sound to begin and end meditation at my set number of minutes. Next we’ll see if it remembers my other sounds.

LATER

I complained about this app before, but the developers have made it work PERFECTLY now! I have iPhone 13 Pro with iOS 17.1.2, and it works! This has got to be THE BEST meditation app available on the App Store! I tried several others, and they all stank compared to this one. I’m so glad I paid for it because it is worth every penny! Have no fear to buy this app because it is great!

Perfect except for two small things

This is a perfect app and no ads or anything that is not for its purpose. Two request, a five second pause before the first gong after starting the timer so you can settle before the gong goes off and have a rain background sound that does not have birds - there is already a bird’s one and I am not comfortable with the chirruping.

Meditation Timer

I really like this app. The sound is perfect for a calming and gentle lead into meditation which I think really helps get body and mind settled especially after a long and hectic da. Sound both before after and within facilitates meditation practice.
I used to sit at a well known Zen Center in Rochester. There we had a large bell calling us to the Zendo about 15 or 20 minutes before the formal meditation started.
Also a hand held bell was struck by one of the senior students in the Zendo right before we started each round of zazen, and also signaling us to start a round of kin hin or walkimg meditation and again when we were to return to sitting.
At any rate, bells are a traditional part of zen practice and have been used for a couple thousand years. I have heard a lot of them and the sound created by this app is definitely one of the most pleasing.

Excellent little meditation app

All one really needs for a meditation timer with a pleasant authentic sounding gong.

Solid Meditation Timer

I have been using this app for many years. I set a timer for 10 minutes and assign a bell to ring every two minutes to remind me that my mind is not clear. You can change the sound of the bells and the overall time and the interval times. It has a variety of background sounds, I have used before as well. My needs are not great, and this is perfect. Somewhere along the way, I think I donated some money to the person who made it.
