Einfach gut
Seitdem ich meditiere, nutze ich diese App und finde sie in ihrer Einfachheit genau richtig für den Zweck.
Die Klarheit der guten Gestaltung passt für mich ganz wunderbar..

Beautifully simple
No fussy stuff, just a beautiful design that makes me look forward to my meditation. Thank you ✌️
Best timer out
Love this timer and it’s no-nonsense approach. I have no interest in guided meditations, achievements or posting about how much I meditate and this app cuts all that away. The log is still nice to have for personal tracking and this app has the best I’ve used on here as well.
One request would be to add a feature that allows the user to put interval bells at a specific time. E.g - sometimes I like to meditate for 10 min with eyes open and then 5 with eyes shut. Would be cool if there was a way to have the chimes let me know when to close my eyes.

Premium?
Nice app. I’m still unable to upgrade to premium. The premium screen format is too large and I cannot see all the info where I imagine the toggle to the premium version is hidden. This issue is the same on both iPad and iPhone.
Also I find the bell sound harsh and an unpleasant way to end the meditation - which is the main reason I would like to upgrade.
Thanks

Doesn’t Save Timer
I like this app overall, but it has a big failure.
I think one of the things I liked was the ability to set a long timer. But I rarely sit for the whole timer.
When I cancel the timer, it doesn’t save the sat time in Health. So it’s failing to track meditation time.
What’s the point of integration if it doesn’t work?
Response to developer:
Free version. Thanks for the clarification. I may have missed your description, I didn’t know it was an upgradeable option. Will consider it in my search for a good timer app.

Response from developer
Thank you for your review. I don't know whether you are using a premium or a free version. The free version only saves the mindful minutes at the end of sessions. It does not offer an option to manually save them. If this is your case I apologise if that is not made sufficiently clear. In the premium version you can easily save the session at any time by accessing a context menu with a long-press gesture. The 'End and Save Session' saves both a log and the health mindful minutes.
Good meditation timer with some limitations
The Timer is well designed and does not overwhelm the user. Some features like the Timer Settings are not very accessible. The Button in the Upper Right can't be reached with one hand. Some swipe gestures are not very iOS like (not native?). If you swipe the sidebar menu into the screen it won't follow the finger like some other swipes. When I try to hide the menu I get delete buttons on the menu items. They crash the App.
There's no way to create a Zazen-Kinhin-Zazen meditation as the interval timers are too simple for that. But the random Interval is a Great idea.
I'm missing some more sounds to choose from. Well, at least the five included sounds are well recorded and don't stop abruptly. A preview for the repetition/gap would be nice.
It's great that I can enter longer timers than the graphical slider allows. Btw. the sloping half circle looks ugly to my eyes. Why not a full circle like the progress?
When the timer is Running tapping the screen will show a not very intuitive Ring with buttons. You have to learn how they work and the way to slow animation won't make it fun to try them. Well I'm not in a hurry when meditating, but an animation should support the user not Block him.

Simple, Customizable, Practical
I’ve tried more than a dozen meditation timer apps, but Simetim has been my go-to app for the past four years. Simple to use, but personal preference are easy to set.
I enjoy the flexibility of being able to tweak the settings to meditate by myself at home or sitting with a group at work.
What I like about this app the most are:
- beautiful bell sounds like none other in other apps;
- no-nonsense, practical interface for setting the timer and just sitting;
- presets that allow you to save different lengths, intervals, and different bell sounds;
- no distracting features like community, audio guides, or meditation courses.

Einfach ganz natürlich
Ich meditiere seit über 30 Jahren und habe bisher keinen besseren Zen-Timer gefunden. 🈵 www.zen-weg.de 🙏🏽
My favorite!
I love this meditation app for its simplicity and beauty. If you are looking for a meditation timer that offers all the function without the distraction and is wrapped in a beautiful package, this is the one. The developer was very responsive when I made a minor recommendation to remove the splash screen. Thank you!

simple timer
just what i wanted and beautiful color themes
Great timer
I don't need social networking, guided meditations or groups to join just a straight forward timer simple and to the point.
Best on statistics
Statistics and note taking were my main focus looking for a mediation app and this one delivers. The ui is well designed although it could use a bit of polish at the time of this review.
Works great
This app is great for meditation and I use it everyday. I prefer it over any other timer and its a simple design, perfect for my sessions.
Very nice
One of the nicest meditation timers available. I've tried several, but the visual simplicity and the wealth of options makes this a new favorite. The only problem I've noticed is that some of the backgrounds and lettering provide poor visual contrast which makes reading the info a bit difficult, but that's a minor issue. It's still a five star app.

Great!
This app helps me stay on track.
Having a built in time and meditation statistics is fantastic.
Thank you.

Simplistic, straightforward and very aesthetically pleasing
Just what I wanted
I was looking for a meditation timer that was simple, elegant, not intrusive, that I could use for my silent meditation. And It has nice bell or chime sounds. It's nice to be able to see the time elapsed during a session, from time to time, in an unobtrusive manner, with a nice aesthetic visual. No numbers, no extra stuff, just a beautiful circle that fills with color as time goes by. The dev clearly put a lot of thought into this. An app for meditation.
