ZenMind Zazen Meditation Timer

Just sit. Traditional bells, walking meditation (kinhin), zero data collection. ZenMind is a dedicated zazen timer, not another generic mindfulness app. Unlike general meditation timers, ZenMind recreates the traditional flow of Japanese zen practice: entering stillness, kinhin, returning to sitting, and release. The bell sequence follows conventions used in zen practice. ■ Traditional bell sequence Three strikes begin zazen. Kinhin and the return to sitting have their own signals. The final bell releases the session. ZenMind is built for the shape of zazen, not only a start-and-stop timer. Bell cues and ambient sound continue even when the screen is locked. ■ Zazen and kinhin Sit in zazen alone, or combine zazen with kinhin, the walking meditation practiced between periods of sitting. ■ Begin before you sit A quiet pre-session sequence helps settle body, breath, and mind. No loud countdown. No rush into practice. ■ Seven-step posture guide Learn the basics of posture, breathing, gaze, and hand position through a concise seven-step guide. The guide includes full lotus, half lotus, seiza, and chair sitting. ■ Nothing you do not need No streak pressure. No badges. No social feed. No crowded dashboard. The interface is made from ink-black space, white-sand text, and slow fades so the sitting itself stays central. ■ On-device records. No subscriptions. Every practice record lives only on your device. No server. No account. iOS may ask for tracking permission for ads, and ZenMind still works if you deny it. ■ For those who - Want a quiet timer after using Calm, Headspace, or other guided meditation apps - Prefer unguided zazen and silent meditation - Practice in a Soto, Rinzai, or Japanese zen context - Want kinhin and traditional bells in the same timer - Care about privacy and a fully local practice record -- ZenMind's descriptions of zazen draw on traditional practice and do not represent the official view of any specific zen school. If you have a medical condition, please consult your physician before sitting.
