No subscriptions. No advertisements. No banners, and no notifications distracting you away from what matters. Meditation timers used to be simple, just like the practice they support. Somewhere along the way, wellness became something to sell, and the path to peace was stripped of a foundational teaching: simplicity throughout life as a way to build stillness and centeredness in the mind. Still Flowing Timer returns to that. Set a duration. Choose a bell to open and close your sit — singing bowls, gongs, or a clear chime. Mark the time with interval bells. Save the sessions you return to. If you are still using this app in 21 days, choose whether or not to continue for a one time payment of $4.99. Let's get back to simplicity, starting with a straightforward meditation timer.
