Brilliant!

What a brilliant app! I have been using fora few years now, and it feels consistent with good choice of bells, lovely and discreet design, and track of my sessions. I wonder if it would be possible to add reminder every hour (mindfulness) or a choice of time throughout the day. Thank you for the lovely app.

Perfect

Exactly what I wanted - a functional timer without all the anti-mindful paraphernalia. Love that I can turn off streaks, etc, for me thinking about goals and past performance defeats the purpose. And it’s so pretty!

Literally perfect

It’s just a meditation timer. That’s it. The simplicity and sleek design are perfect.

Apple Health integration?

Am I missing how to connect Apple’s Health app integration on macOS? How can I do it? If it’s not a part of the app, can you add it?

All it is nothing else

Center is an app. Free. Free not “free.” It is a timer for meditation. Logs the Mindfulness minutes in app and the Health app. Only that. It is immaculate.

Opening the app is already meditating

I remember trying a bunch of app and the worst was Insights (or a similar name). You would log in and feel almost instantly overwhelmed and distracted by all the stuff you could click, all the different teachers, the meditation you could listen to, etc.

This app is perfect. You open the app and you feel a sense of calm and focus. I just want to sit in silence, time it, follow the streak. This one does just that.

End timer broken half the time

It would be a great app except that the end of the timer doesn't fire half of the time at random, making it unusable

Great app

I love the simplicity of this app. It’s straightforward and does the job beautifully.

Crisp experience

Simple yet useful. Many thanks

Don’t need fancy apps

If you’ve played the Headspace / Insight Timer / Calm app ecosystem before, you realize that meditation is simpler than they make it to be. This app is seriously all I needed all this time. And it’s free. Donations to support!

Perfect for unguided meditation

Perfect app. Great job!! There’s a bug where the chime didn’t ring every min if I set the custom time to 1 min. In a 5 min session I expected to hear it every min but I heard it only after the first min was up. Not after. Except for this bug, this is perfect for my needs.

Perfect. Like Insight Timer but no bloat.

This is perfect. Exactly what I need, with no distractions. Just how Insight Timer used to be in the good old days many years ago before it got flooded with a huge amount of bloat.

Great simple timer

I was looking for a basic timer without all of the distracting content. This one works an loos great

Perfect

Exactly what is was looking for

Love this app - worth the donation

It’s simple. That’s all I want in a meditation timer. Simplicity. I donated the $17.99 because the creator deserves the support.

Schöne puristische App

Eine schöne puristische App.
Kostenlos, keine Werbung oder Datenerfassung. Das ist heutzutage immer schwerer zu finden.
Man hat eine gute Auswahl an Klängen und auch die sonstigen Einstellungen sind gut.

Nervig finde ich nur den komischen Ton mit dem jede Meditation eingeleitet wird. Diesen kann man leider nicht deaktivieren oder verändern.
Für mich persönlich wäre es auch etwas besser wenn ich die Meditation minutenweise und nicht in 5 Minuten-Schritten einstellen könnte.

Ansonsten, wie gesagt, eine sehr schöne App. Liebevoll entwickelt, schlicht und benutzerfreundlich.

Vielen Dank an den Entwickler 🙏

great app

simple and does what you need it to do

Almost perfect, worth a donation

This app is almost the perfect meditation app. It simply does the job without requiring an account, without data tracking, without any ads. There are a couple bugs/quirks, like the chime not playing when the phone is in silent mode, but that may just be a limitation with iOS development and is completely manageable. Be mindful of your phone’s state and the app works great!

Response from developer

Thank you for the thoughtful review and support. Silent mode is not intended to prevent Center’s chime, in-fact the app is designed to play your selected completion sound even when the device is muted. I’ve improved that functionality in the upcoming 2.3.2 update, including when the screen is off, and Center will point you to the relevant setting if it blocks the chime. Please try it after updating at that time, and contact me through the app if the problem persists.

Doesn’t work on watch

The app looks nice, unfortunately it doesn’t work on my watch. I start a meditation, look at my watch later and it’s on the Home Screen. I open the app again and it offers me the option to start a meditation.

Amazing

An amazing app from top to bottom
