Dōan vs Still Point Timer

"Dōan - person who leads a meditation session using bells to keep time and nurture an atmosphere of focus and clarity" Dōan is an unguided meditation timer that periodically reminds you to return focus to your meditation practice using gentle gong sounds. You can: - Configure the length of each session and how often you want to be nudged to return your focus - Choose your favourite gong sounds from multiple recordings - Turn off your screen: The app will keep running in the background even when the screen is locked or turned off

Still Point helps you build a daily meditation habit by starting small and progressing gradually. Begin with just 1 minute on Day 1. Each day adds 10 seconds, making consistency realistic and sustainable. During each session, time is shown as simple visual blocks that fill as you go, so staying present feels easier and more manageable. Use Still Point to: • Build a meditation streak with progressive daily sessions • Follow a clear visual timer with block-by-block progress • Track session completion and consistency over time • Capture thoughts and reflections after practice • Review your progress and stay accountable Still Point is designed for people who struggle to get started, stick with it, or sit still for long periods. Start small, stay consistent, and let progress compound.
