Poor App

Doesn't work and crashed.

I do not recommend it, download the official Vipassana app

basically the app is to monetize through mandatory “dana”, that is, it is not dana. Opposite to proposal of Vipassana taught in the tradition of S. N. Goenka, so I do not recommend it.

Exactly what I need

Simple and straightforward, has some bugs but they don’t interfere with the experience.

Super App

Wäre aber schön wenn man die Leute untereinander anschreiben könnte… oder eine Mail senden könnte die Leute die alle die App nutzen …. Und es wäre schön wenn bei der Hälfte seiner Zeit das man ein zwischen Ton einbauen kann…

Beispiel bei 1 Stunde oder wie auch immer die Zeit ist dann nach 30 Minuten ein Gong usw

Sonst schöne App für die gern Meditation machen

Discipline, motivation, and stats

I have now used this app for over a month each day, and it encouraged discipline for me to meditate regularly, and motivates me to increase my number of sittings, and finally, being big into keeping my own stats, this has allowed me the ease of recording each hour.

I highly recommend this, if you are a serious meditator and want to get to the next level. Also if you are having trouble meditating daily, and you are a beginner, give it a try, I think it will help you up your disciple and practice.

Helpful tool - not just a timer

Really helping my practice. It’s not just a timer but with the tracking and stats, it serves as a motivational tool too. I like that I can see if there are other people also meditating- reminds me that there is a community of people who are also keeping up with their practice.
Only thing I would prefer is the timer to also sound if I have it on another app - eg if I use Spotify for audio from goenka. However can see that this suggestion has been addressed by the developer on another comment and there’s a technical limitation to having this.

- schlichtes Design

Tolle App!

Gute Umsetzung, ideal für vipassana meditierende 👌🏼

Starting today

The app is a great idea. I began to use it today. Dana ok and I don’t find where to activate the gongs, would you help me? I recently did. 20 day course, would you add this option in Courses?

functional

An app which I use as a basic timer: The two gongs remind me when to change from annapanna to Vipassana and then from Vipassana to Metta. It also keeps track of what you log, helps me understand how disciplined I’ve been. The app is confusing, at first I thought it was broken! but I persisted, eventually I understood how to navigate within the app. So some minor issues, but nothing that stops it from being a great, functional, motivational app. I wish there was a way to hear Goenka’s morning chants via the app.

Works but improvement needed

I like the simplicity of the app. Great to be able to set your own timer as I wanted to sit for 2 hours and most apps only allowed settings to 1 hour. It will be good if the timer and chime continue to work with the screen turned off. Currently the timer continues but the chime does not. Also, it will benefit from a preparation time, eg allowing for 5-10 secs before meditation starts so we can press the start button and then settle a little. Thank you for the app. Despite above, I will continue to use it.

Super

Danke für die App

Encouraging 👌🤙💖💋🎶

This is connected to my daily paceometer so I can know how much I mediate in other apps too.
I love to analyse how I’m progressing and this allows me to do that in various ways.
Honoured to be part of the journey 🙏😍.
Namaste and Thankyou

Sehr schöne App

Schön gestaltete App. Hilfreich um die Meditationspraxis aufrecht zu erhalten . Verschiedene Soundfiles stehen zur Verfügung. Sehr schön

Schöne App für das tägliche Meditieren

Die App finde ich super. Man kann sich die Group Recordings von Goenka anhören und sieht wie lange man in der Woche meditiert hat.

Great Tool

Keeps my personal daily practice strong💖

I would like register Some courses else

Hi, this is a really nice app.
could you improve this app with 10 days server courses and the others kind of courses: Satipatthana; 3, 20, 30 days for both serving and sitting.
Other thing, could be the option for us use others sounds, like the grouping sitting records that we can get in Dhamma.org app.
I could send you the others courses agenda.
Great regards

Almost nice

I would prefer to be possible to hear the bell while having the phone in sleeping mode.

Sehr gut

Hilft sehr gut dabei die Praxis aufrecht zu erhalten. Sieht jetzt auch gut aus und ist viel performanter geworden.

Sehr gute Arbeit, Danke!
