About

Moss

Read full description

Moss is a silent meditation timer with a gentle sense of rhythm. Choose how long to sit, begin, and be left alone. When time is up, a soft sound brings you back β€” never an alarm. Moss isn't guided meditations or a content library. It's the calm structure around your own practice. MEDITATE, UNDISTURBED β€’ Choose a duration and begin in seconds. β€’ Sessions stay completely silent β€” no music, no voice, no interruptions. β€’ A soft, brief completion sound ends the session gently. FIND YOUR RHYTHM β€’ Set a practice cadence that fits your life. β€’ Gentle reminders invite you to sit β€” they never nag. β€’ Begin a session straight from a reminder. SEE YOUR PRACTICE TAKE SHAPE β€’ Follow your sessions and consistency over time. β€’ Progress that encourages rather than pressures β€” a missed day is just a day. Quiet by default. Nothing to browse, nothing to manage. Open Moss, sit, and return gently.
