ZenKoan is a quiet koan practice companion for people who want a daily Zen prompt, a simple sitting timer, and a private reflection log without audio clutter or account setup. WHAT IS INCLUDED - A daily koan with a short practice pointer - A searchable starter library, with the complete library available in Pro - Sitting timer presets for 5, 10, 20, and 40 minutes - Start and end bell sounds using system audio - Optional private reflection after a sitting - Sitting history and practice insights, including total minutes, streak, and weekly rhythm WHY IT IS DIFFERENT Most meditation apps optimize for large audio catalogs. ZenKoan is intentionally focused on koan study and silent sitting. It opens quickly, keeps practice controls obvious, and avoids feeds, ads, social mechanics, and forced login. FREE VERSION Use the daily koan, starter library, reflection flow, and up to three sittings per day. ZENKOAN PRO ZenKoan Pro unlocks the complete koan library, unlimited daily sittings, and the full practice history/insights archive. Monthly and yearly auto-renewing plans are available through the App Store. PRIVACY Your sittings and reflections stay on your device.
