Read full descriptionHide full description
Sit is a meditation timer for people who just want to sit. Set a duration, choose a bell, begin. A gentle sound marks the start and end of your practice. Nothing else gets in the way. Bells — Eight resonant sounds including singing bowl, temple bell, gong, and crystal. Set different bells for the start, interval, and end of your session. Haptic — Prefer silence? Switch to haptic mode and feel the bell instead of hearing it. Prep — A brief countdown before your session so you can set the phone down before it begins. No accounts. No streaks. No distractions. Sit. That's it.
