About

Medity

Features
Read full description

Medity is a minimal meditation timer. A circular dial, a bell, an ambient sound, and the silence in between. No guided sessions. No ads. No tracking. Built for the quiet practice of sitting still — nothing else. — THE TIMER — Drag the dial to set any duration from 3 to 60 minutes, or tap one of the presets. The ring breathes gently while you set up; once you begin, it shrinks to mark your progress. — THE SOUNDS — A library of nature recordings, procedural noise, and composed meditation tracks: • Rain (light, heavy) • Ocean (waves, shore) • Forest, river, fire, wind • White, pink, brown noise • Six instrumental music pieces (Calm, Illusions, Japanese, Moonlight, Reverie, Spatium) • Or pure silence Every track loops seamlessly. — THE BELLS — Five bell timbres synthesized in real time (Tibetan bowl, Japanese bell, soft chime, deep bell, meditation gong) ring at the start and the end of every session. Optional interval bells every 5, 10, or 15 minutes. — THE PRACTICE — Sessions sync to Apple Health as Mindful Minutes. The Stats screen shows a 26-week heatmap, your current streak, and a gentle line graph of minutes per day. Quiet acknowledgements ("Markers") unlock as you accumulate practice. — THE FEEL — Designed entirely in light mode with translucent Liquid Glass surfaces, Geist typography, and a deep navy ink. The Live Activity in the Dynamic Island keeps your session visible even with the phone locked. — THE PRINCIPLES — • Free, with no in-app purchases • No analytics, no third-party SDKs, no ads • All data stays on your device, with optional iCloud sync • Open about every asset shipped — see the Acknowledgements screen for credits Medity is a personal app, built by one person and shared with whoever wants it.
