Bell
Read full descriptionHide full description
Bell is a calm interval timer for repeated practice sessions. Choose an interval, pick a gentle bowl-style chime, and start. Bell keeps the screen awake during a session and plays the selected sound each time the interval completes. Use it for meditation, breathwork, stretching, mobility work, journaling, focused work blocks, or any practice where you want a soft repeating cue instead of a loud alarm.
Anoesis
