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.

Stillmere is a meditation timer and nothing more. Choose how long to sit, begin, and a bell tells you when you're done. No guided sessions, no streaks, no account, no ads. SIMPLE TO START • Set from 1 to 60 minutes with a tap, or turn the Digital Crown on Apple Watch. Then begin. • Start with Siri: "Meditate for 10 minutes with Stillmere." BELLS YOU CHOOSE • 15 sounds across singing bowls, bells, temple gongs, wood and cymbals. • Separate beginning, interval and ending bells, how many times each strikes, and bell volume. • Interval bells mark the time along the way, every few minutes. OPTIONAL SOUNDSCAPES • Blend lake, stream, ocean, rain, wind, reeds, a low fire and a deep hush into one mix. • The mix sways gently like weather, settles as you sit, and fades away just before the ending bell. APPLE WATCH, WITH OR WITHOUT YOUR IPHONE • The Watch app runs on its own, so you can leave your phone in another room. • A soft tap on your wrist marks each interval; a firm one marks the end. • Add it to your watch face to open Stillmere with your last length ready. WHILE YOU SIT • Your phone can stay locked. Time remaining shows on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, and you can end from there. • The ending bell still rings after an alarm or call interrupts. STILLMERE PLUS (OPTIONAL, ONE PURCHASE) • Seven more themes, each with a quiet moving scene, on iPhone and Apple Watch • Matching app icons • Endless mode on iPhone: no countdown, only your interval bells, until you choose to end • Save up to three sits and begin one from Settings or Shortcuts • No subscription, shared with family PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Optionally save completed sits to Apple Health as Mindful Minutes. • Stillmere collects no data. The only connection it makes is to the App Store, if you choose to buy Plus.
