Sit
Read full descriptionHide full description
Sit is the meditation timer that can see how still you truly are. No guided voices. No streaks to chase. No cloud accounts. Just you, the timer, and a deeper understanding of your own practice. — PRESENCE DETECTION — Sit's accelerometer reads real stillness during every session — completely on-device, zero permissions required, zero data transmitted. After each session, your Presence Score shows exactly how still you remained. Over time, Stats reveals your average presence and longest streaks. — CAMERA QUALITY TRACKING — Enable optional front-camera tracking for the fullest picture. Sit uses Apple's Vision framework entirely on-device to detect whether your eyes are closed, your head is upright, and your face is still. No images or video are ever saved or transmitted — only a single quality number, stored locally on your iPhone. Zero cloud. Zero biometrics. Pure presence. — AI MEDITATION INSIGHTS — History surfaces personal insights about your practice. Powered by Apple Intelligence on iOS 26+, or a thoughtful rules-based insight on older devices — always on-device, always private. Learn which time of day deepens your practice, how your quality is trending, and what your consistency streak says about your discipline. — THE TIMER — • 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, or 60-minute presets — or custom up to 2 hours • Gentle bell that rises naturally at the end • Audio continues in the background when screen locks — AMBIENT SOUNDS — • Rain, singing bowls, forest, ocean, white noise • Plays under any app — layer with your own music — BREATHING GUIDE — • 4-7-8 pattern with smooth circular animation • Settles the mind before the silence begins — HISTORY & STATS — • Full session log with quality score and completion rate • Daily streaks — consistency is the practice • Logs Mindful Minutes to Apple Health automatically — BUILT ON PRIVACY — • No account, no sign-up, no email — ever • Camera: frames processed in memory, discarded immediately, never saved • Motion: processed locally, never leaves device • AI insights: run on-device — no server, no API call • Optional anonymised session stats (count, quality, streak only) to help improve future insights — your explicit consent, revocable anytime from Settings Sit. Still your mind. Watch it grow. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

The clearest difference is device support: nak at 4 against Sit's 2. nak also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
