All my meditation record is gone. Outrageous! ### 3/5 — Need to be able to select time zones *2021-07-28* I know meditation isn’t about getting stats but I live in the US and meditate at 7 am and 7 pm—and for some reason it only counts one session a day. It’s currently Tuesday and according to the app I’ve already meditated on Wednesday. It’s a bit annoying. Why doesn’t it just use my phone’s time when recording sessions? ### 3/5 — Setting don’t save *2021-02-02* I love this app, but I have to reset my preferences every time I open the app. It’s a drag. I have sent multiple emails to the help contact with no response. I use it almost daily but super frustrating to have to adjust every single time when there is a save feature.... ### 3/5 — Auto rotate *2020-04-14* The auto rotate doesn’t work. Maybe I am doing something wrong with the settings. Also, the meditation interval button is really hard to turn on ### 3/5 — Stop changing my settings *2019-06-20* I would like this app much better if they would allow me to choose my own timer settings. This was the case until recent updates... not happy!☹️ ### 3/5 — Unpaid version has advertising *2019-04-18* I wanted a simple meditation timer but one that was a little nicer than the timer built into the phone. This timer is a bit bloated and, because i have not paid for it, there are silent adverts for his other products while setting the timer and afterward. Just not the right headspace for me. The sounds are nice though. ### 3/5 — Less intuitive than it could be *2018-11-16* I find the settings kind of confusing. What’s the difference between an “end chime” and a “finish chime,” for example. I’ve had meditations interrupted a number of times because I had something like that set wrong. I’d like to have the option to have an interval chime every x-minutes, but “interval chime” just means it rings once halfway through, which is confusing. ### 4/5 — Simple meditation app *2022-01-09* This is a great minimal frills app which I really appreciate. I use it all the time. If I could change one thing it would be to permit audio from other apps. I’d love to be able to use this timer and bell sounds while playing music in another app but this app stops audio playback from other apps (which is a setting the develop can adjust). It would be awesome if this app had a setting that allowed audio to merge with other apps. ### 4/5 — Time Zone needs to be accessible *2020-10-01* Love the app but wish the time zone was able to be set. ### 4/5 — Almost Perfect - Need to fix time zone *2020-06-19* Like you see in other reviews, if you are meditating, this is the app you need. I rarely write reviews but I am writing in hopes they fix one thing to make it perfect - please let user set the time zone so my stats aren’t mucked up since I tend to get my 2nd daily session in the evening. By my guess, the default time zone set in the app is GMT/BST given likely built in U.K. Just my guess. ## Most praised reviews (6 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — DrR *2020-12-20* I’d like to see the moving circle change colors for each time period. Thank you a very useful app. ### 5/5 — Great for TM practice! *2020-01-26* I use it every day and highly recommend it. Maybe a couple of "gentler sounds?" Like a soft windchime or quiet tinkling bell sound, or water. I love the bird! Thank you!! ### 5/5 — Excellent app *2019-10-01* Perfect for a transcendental meditation practice! ### 5/5 — Love this app *2019-05-20* Wish it also had a time zone setting as meditations that I do on EST in the late afternoon get recorded in the next day and it messes up the stats! Also would like reminder message to state... remember to meditate versus don’t forget to meditate. ### 4/5 — Great app except the time zone settings *2019-10-29* I’m just hoping they update it so you can set the time zone. Otherwise it is a great app. Great tones and its handy having the option of warm up and cool down intervals. ### 4/5 — Time Zones *2019-09-20* This is great but would be better if it knew which time zone I’m in... it already says I meditated twenty minutes tomorrow! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
