MindTime vs Kora Run

A silent meditation timer that gets out of the way. No guided voices, no feed, no ads — just a bell, your breath, and the time you choose. Most meditation apps want your attention. MindTime gives it back. Set a duration, pick a bell, and sit. When you finish, your streak, your stats and your journal are waiting — and nothing else is. Built for a real practice MindTime is the timer, not a content library. It is made for people who already sit: vipassana and insight meditation, zen and zazen, mindfulness and MBSR, samatha and anapanasati, metta, breathwork, yoga nidra — or simply sitting quietly for ten minutes a day. Silent by design • No voices, ever: nothing talks over your session. No guided tracks, no teacher, no feed to scroll. • Vibration-only mode: feel your interval bells instead of hearing them — made for retreats, shared rooms, offices, dorms and late nights beside a sleeping partner. • Fully silent mode: or switch every sound off and let the session simply end. • No ads, no interruptions: nothing appears while you are sitting. Your timer, your way • Any duration: from seconds to hours — or endless mode with no time limit at all. • Warm-up phase: settle in before the session really begins. • Presets: save your usual sit and start it with a single tap. • Four session types: Meditation, Sleep, Focus and Relaxation, each with its own statistics. Six interval bells that bring you back • Six recorded bells: three Tibetan singing bowls (Manipuri, Jambati, Thadobati), a crystal bowl, a Hanchi gong and Koshi chimes. • Start, interval and end bells: set each one separately — ring every 5 minutes, every 10, or at any interval you like. • Independent volumes: every bell has its own level, so nothing ever jolts you out of a sit. • Or no bell at all: vibration only, or complete silence. 31 soundscapes — entirely optional • Noise: brown noise, light brown and intense brown noise, white noise, pink noise, green noise and blue noise. • Rain and nature: gentle rain, heavy rainfall, thunderstorms, rain on a van, ocean waves, a mountain river, forest birds and crackling fire. • Ambient and frequency: zen garden stream, choir pad, cosmic space, 174 Hz, 285 Hz and 528 Hz. • Silence is the default: mix a soundscape under your session only when you want one. Build the habit • Daily streaks: see your consistency at a glance. • Real statistics: total sessions, total minutes and average session length, broken down by type. • Weekly view: the days you actually practiced. • Gentle reminders: stay on track without being nagged. Reflect with a journal • Session notes: capture what came up while it is still fresh. • History: browse back through weeks and months to notice patterns. • Optional: turn journaling off in Settings and never see it again. Distraction-free by design • Hide the clock: show or hide the countdown and the progress circle — some people focus better without a number. • Screen stays on: your phone never interrupts a sit. • Gentle fade-out: eases you out of the session instead of cutting it off. • Cloud sync: presets, history and streaks stay in step across your devices. • No sign-up needed: open the app and start. The timer and all six bells work offline. Available in 38 languages. Website: https://mindtime.app Terms: https://mindtime.app/terms Privacy: https://mindtime.app/privacy

Run 60 minutes non-stop. Most running plans tell you where to start. Kora finds out. Kora is for anyone new to running, or coming back to it. ONE RUN TO FIND YOUR STARTING POINT No target. No pace to hit. No distance to cover. You run continuously until you would rather stop, and Kora builds the plan around that. One person lasts a minute. Another lasts forty. Both get a plan that starts where they are and heads for the same place: sixty minutes of running without stopping. THREE RUNS MAKE A WEEK Each week gives you three runs. Finish all three and the plan moves on. A week here is three runs, not seven days. So a bad week costs you nothing but time, and there is no streak to break. EFFORT, NOT PACE Every session is built on how hard you are working, not how fast you are going. Kora tells you what each part of a run should feel like: easy enough to talk through, hard enough that you cannot, or a gentle jog to recover. Then it gets out of the way. There is no number to miss. THE PLAN LISTENS After each run you drag one dial to say how it felt. That answer decides what comes next. Say a week was hard and the plan holds you there until you are ready. Say it was fine and it steps up. You move at your pace, not somebody else's. IT ALL WORKS WITHOUT SIGNAL Everything is worked out on your phone. Run in a basement car park or up a mountain. Nothing waits for a connection. When you are back on a network it all backs itself up, and on a new phone everything comes back where you left it. WHERE IT ENDS The plan finishes when you run for sixty minutes without stopping. That is the goal. Not a race, not a distance. An hour of continuous running is the point where running stops being something you are trying to start and becomes something you do. NOTHING ELSE IN THE WAY No adverts. No leaderboards. Nothing you record is sold or used to track you. PLEASE NOTE - Sign in with Apple is the only account you need. - Talk to a doctor before starting any new exercise program.
