## What is Flowtime?

Less stressed. More resilient. Healthier.

Flowtime app has scientifically validated lessons made by renowned guides on various topics. The free timer mode makes the app compatible with other apps. That helps you record data with just one app while you listen to audio from other apps. Fill your goal rings with whatever audio you listen to. While practice is made easy, it's simple to make meditation your new habit.

# SCIENTIFICALLY VALID LESSONS
Meditation helps us relax while guided lesson matters. Flowtime lessons were validated scientifically to improve stress resilience in a randomized controlled trial completed in collaboration with Mobio Interactive and the University of Toronto.
There are about 120 sessions from professional meditation instructions, including courses engaging in relationships, performance, stress, leadership, focus, anxiety, mindful pregnancy, and so on.

# IMMERSIVE GUIDED BREATHING TRAINING
Experience mindful immersion with our innovative audio, visual, and vibration guidance. Make it easy even for beginners to cultivate calm awareness in the present moment and prevent the mind from wandering.

# GOAL TRACKER RINGS
Tracking your goals daily makes meditation feel more real and less like an abstract, unattainable concept. It's a small step that can really make a difference in achieving your goals. Every minute you practice counts automatically towards closing the ring.

# FREE TIMER MODE
When you are still finding the audio that suits you from different apps and platforms, it's essential to record all the practice in one app. Start timer mode, you are free to listen to any lessons from Insight Timer, Calm, Headspace, or even YouTube. Every minute you practice counts in the goal trackers.

# BIOFEEDBACK MEDITATION
Know you're getting there as you hear the sound that verifies your desired state, whether it's flow, breath coherence, alpha or theta status, or focused concentration. No more guesswork or relying solely on feelings. There are 11 metrics available to set up.

# VISUALIZED RICH BIODATA REPORT
The real-time data matters when you are doing meditation, while rich biodata reports after practice are also crucial to measuring your practice every time and insights into your progress. The sensors passively sense your brain and heart activities, and the app translates them into visualized graphs of your body performance. You will be eager to see how well you perform after you practice.

# MONTHLY & YEARLY REPORT
Trends help us see the big picture when small changes add up. They make it easier to spot important changes. Some metrics like HRV can be less responsive, so it's better to look at them on a monthly or yearly basis.

**You can use the Flowtime app alone or with the Flowtime headband, which is available to purchase in the app.**

With your permission, Flowtime can write Mindful Minutes on the Apple Health app for health tracking.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us. You can send feedback on the app or email us.

### 3/5 — Glitches

*2026-07-30, version 5.0.6*

Good overall, but it has glitches and difficulty maintaining the connection.

### 5/5 — Can’t live without

*2026-06-27, version 5.0.6*

I love being able to look at the data and trends. It helps me learn what works for me because I can see how my practice influences my levels.

### 5/5 — 5 stars

*2026-03-31, version 5.0.6*

Flowtime continues to impress me.  It’s easy to connect, very comfortable and gives me accurate info about my meditation. The app is loaded with useful information

### 5/5 — Very good

*2026-02-04, version 5.0.6*

Functionally very rich, well thought out with lots of data. Good design makes it intuitive and easy to use.

### 4/5 — Good Meditation Monitor

*2025-09-09, version 5.0.6*

I have found this to be my favorite device for monitoring meditation. It’s helps me find and strengthen the coherence state and flow too. I'd like to give it five stars and would do so if it didn't lose the contact between sensors and skin
 now and then and if it were more sturdy. I’d like to see them add a way to check contact with the skin as that would help keep the signal strong.

### 5/5 — Impressed

*2025-08-19, version 5.0.6*

Take your meditation to the next level!

### 5/5 — Amazing Learning Device

*2025-06-19, version 5.0.6*

I have owned the headband for a couple years now. I bought it to know when I was in the meditation flow. It does not disappoint.

### 3/5 — Flow time app

*2025-06-02, version 5.0.6*

Needs more explanation, needs more online demos on platforms like YouTube etc

### 1/5 — dumb

*2025-04-07, version 5.0.5*

It does not let you export brainwave data after 1hour. this is terrible. don’t buy

### 3/5 — Needs improvements

*2025-03-11, version 5.0.5*

The app could benefit from input from an experienced UI designer. The charts are not colorblind / color vision deficient accessible. To make the charts accessible they need to labeled with the brain wave type. Also noted typos in the interface “We will not sold your data”.
