About

Arrive Within

Features
Read full description

Arrive Within is a private, offline-first meditation garden. Choose from 42 guided meditations in English and German, a flexible timer, or an open-ended stopwatch. Every qualifying practice permanently grows one living tree and the world around it. Guided sessions and transcripts are bundled with the app, so the core experience works without a network connection. Optional bells, quiet ambience, haptics, and truthful session recovery help you return after an interruption or relaunch. Write or record an optional private reflection, review your journey and simple statistics, create calm local reminders, and export a readable copy of your data whenever you choose. Your privacy stays yours. Arrive Within collects no user information. There are no ads, analytics, tracking, subscriptions, accounts, cloud sync, or social comparisons. Practice, preferences, progress, and journal data stay on your device unless you explicitly export them through the Apple system share sheet. Your journal is never analyzed. Twilight is the complete free Garden. One optional one-time purchase unlocks four additional visual material styles; it never changes progress, practices, or content. Arrive Within is open source.
