### 5/5 — Just what I wanted

*2014-07-28, version 1.5*

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.

### 3/5 — Premium?

*2021-06-09*

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

### 3/5 — Doesn’t Save Timer

*2021-03-14, version 4.4*

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.

### 4/5 — Simple, Customizable, Practical

*2020-01-29, version 4.0.1*

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.

### 4/5 — Great app - version 2 is tricky at first

*2014-10-30, version 2.0*

be sure to go online and read the FAQ if you are having problems. Elegantly done app to be used every day!

### 5/5 — Beautifully simple

*2023-02-08, version 4.6.1*

No fussy stuff, just a beautiful design that makes me look forward to my meditation. Thank you ✌️

### 5/5 — Best timer out

*2022-03-31, version 4.5.3*

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.

### 5/5 — My favorite!

*2018-05-03, version 3.7.5*

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!

### 5/5 — simple timer

*2018-03-20, version 3.7.4*

just what i wanted and beautiful color themes

### 5/5 — Great timer

*2016-08-01, version 3.1*

I don't need social networking, guided meditations or groups to join just a straight forward timer simple and to the point.

### 5/5 — Best on statistics

*2016-02-25, version 2.7*

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.

### 5/5 — Works great

*2015-10-01, version 2.6.1*

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.

### 5/5 — Very nice

*2015-07-20, version 2.6*

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.

### 5/5 — Great!

*2014-08-21, version 1.6.1*

This app helps me stay on track.

Having a built in time and meditation statistics is fantastic.

Thank you.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2014-08-20, version 1.6.1*

Simplistic, straightforward and very aesthetically pleasing
