### 5/5 — Great simple timer!

*2026-07-16*

Does what it says, nice and simple. Works well.

### 5/5 — Beautiful. Simple. Clean.

*2026-07-15*

For those of you who are tired of all the BS on Insight Timer, this app is the perfect alternative. Clean and simple, it does its job beautifully without any unnecessary distractions.

### 5/5 — Minimal as it should be

*2026-07-05*

Does everything it needs to be, no fluff no upsell
Perfect for zen practitioners

### 5/5 — All You Need

*2026-06-11*

The perfect no frills meditation timer—exactly what I was looking for after dealing with so many other apps rife with pop-ups and prompts trying to sell you something, which is antithetical to act of meditation.

Even if this app had a price (one time payment; not a subscription), it would be worth it.

### 5/5 — almost perfect

*2026-06-10*

this is exactly the meditation app I was looking for, and many thanks for giving it away! my one suggestion: the bell samples end rather abruptly. would you consider adding a gentle fade-out?

**Developer response:** happy you’re enjoying! I agree with the bell feedback, I’ll record something better for the next update :)

### 5/5 — Yup

*2026-05-26*

It’s got everything you need. Thanks for this.

### 5/5 — Please add a home screen widget!

*2026-05-04*

I love the look of this meditation timer, it’s the nicest looking app out of all of them!! It would be my go-to if it had a home screen widget. Something as simple as ‘get started’, or a ‘daily streak’ or both in one widget! A nice feature would also be background sounds, nature or ambience. I think this app is great and minimalistic which many others lack, but would be more enticing to use with those features. Thank you!

### 5/5 — zen.

*2026-01-26*

no adds. calming scheme. simple. zen.

### 5/5 — great app!

*2026-01-24*

This is exactly what I was looking for in a meditation timer — simple, with interval bells and stats. Not over accessorized like everything else on the app store.

**Developer response:** Thanks Chaz!

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2026-01-22*

This app does exactly what I need it to do. No frills.

**Developer response:** Thanks Owl! No need for any frills.
