Zuverlässig

Hilft mir sehr im Alltag

simple and easy to use

a simple and effective timer without frills

Clean, perfect

This is it. The ad free timer that doesn’t interfere with zazen. It’s just exactly what is needed.

Simple timer

A stripped down, basic timer without all the distractions of other timer apps.

Einfacher, sehr guter Timer

Einfach, kein Schnick Schnack, macht genau was gebracht wird, mit einem sehr angenehmen Gong. Vielen Dank!

Just what I needed, no bells and whistles

I got tired of Insight Timer’s incessant efforts to sell me features and sessions I didn’t want. Zazen Timer is the antidote. Simple free timer with a nice bell sound and straightforward interface.

Doesn’t work on screen lock

Chimes after screen unlock only which is useless as a timer

Zazen

Simple, elegant and very helpful.

$3.99 - really?

It’s amazing how hard it is to build something that seems as simple as a solid meditation timer. I’ve found bugs and limitations with the free ones I’ve tried. I expected for $3.99 that there’d be some additional functionality but it’s just a timer with a ring that can’t be adjusted - that is a huge shortcoming in my eyes considering that this is not a free app.

Ungenügende Funktion

Man kann keine Timer mit verschiedenen Längen hintereinander erstellen, wie sie bei Zazen Sitzungen mit Kin Hin Gehmeditation dazwischen benötigt werden.

Nice and simple.

Good basic timer. The screen stays on the whole time. It would be nice if it was dimmed after a minute. Also having more options for the bell sound, like having three bells at the beginning and end.

Schade

Das sind 3,99€ die ich ausgegeben habe, ohne einen Mehrwert zu erhalten. Die Interval Benachrichtigung funktioniert nur, wenn man vorher die Töne des iPhones eingeschaltet hat. Das ist natürlich kontraproduktiv, weil so auch alle anderen Benachrichtigungen durchdringen.
Das lösen andere Apps deutlich besser, häufig sogar kostenlos.

Love it’s simplicity and utility

Simple and perfect for what I need it for. Great meditation timer! It’s also a handy interval timer , I used it to keep track of my mile pace at the end of a long running event : )

Sehr gut

Zen-Timer mit schönem Klang und praktischer Intervall-Funktion.

Zazen

It is a good app. However the original chime I remember went longer and slowly tapered out. This chime is just a bit too quick to finish

Does anyone remember Zenso?

I think this is one of the better ones out there right now, but it pales in comparison to the old timer, Zenso.

Not bad

I like this app. Especially the delay. I just wish there were more options for the opening and closing bell. I also wish the bell rang out longer and slowly decayed.

Favorite app

This is my favorite app. It is very simple. The bell rings to start and the bell rings to end the meditation. You choose whether to have a countdown and how long to meditate. This is all I need. I have never used an app so consistently. Nothing I don’t need. No bells and whistles. Perfect.

Response from developer

Thank you for this kind review! :)

Perfection👌🏾

A simple to use timer, with options to delay the start time, and have intervals, allowing you a sense of time.

Beautiful simplicity for a mindfulness tool

Just what I needed, a timer without extras. The ease of using motivates my to practice stillness throughout the day more.
