Description
During a Vipassana Meditation retreat, I have realized the meditation timer I was using for timing meditation sessions was far too elaborate, distracting and not very reliable. I have therefore developed a simple meditation timer app to run on my phone. The app worked really well, so much that I have decided to upload it on Google Play, thinking other meditators might use it for their daily meditation practice or while on a Silent Vipassana meditation Retreat.
Whether you are an apprentice, a teacher or a seasoned meditator the meditation timer will help you to track meditation sessions without distractions and useless features. The Meditation app will not teach you how to meditate or take you though some guided meditation, the purpose of the app is to track time for insight meditators that have pre-existing meditation skills and know the technique(s).
I will make some extra improvements to the timer, as soon as I will have the time free from meditation and please, get in touch via the meditation app and let me know how we can improve the app. Also, if you want to contribute to the maintenance and development of the app, feel free to buy me a coffee :-)
Cheers everyone and I wish you all a life without suffering.

5 ★ Good app. Does everything it should and simple to use. Nice selection of sounds. I'd add a 3 second pause after starting so users could settle in place.
5 ★ Good to track my daily meditation record. This motivates me to try my best in spending time meditate everyday. Meditation helps in my concentration in inner well being. Thanks and great job
5 ★ Truly excellent. Simple, able to add custom bells, does the job
5 ★ This is a simple yet very useful app. The log is the best feature, I'm able to keep track of my meditation duration in a calender, has helped me keep up with my meditation to form a habit.
5 ★ Great app.. This simple app fulfils your purpose without any noise. Must have for every vipasana practitioner.
2 ★ I love the price but I'm spoiled by Insight Meditation Timer and didn't realize how much they provide in sounds and time options until I tried to use this one. I'm sticking with you to see how you are doing and if the quality and options improve over time. you're onto the right track. check out what's already out there ( seriously, Insight Meditation Timer or others will show you what's up in your world of timers, imho). thanks for the great work and for your Meditation practice as well. Mr.
1 ★ Warning: this app could cause hearing damage. I use ear buds so as not to disturb others around me. This app immediately raises the volume up to the maximum as soon as you open the app and rings a bell. I thought it was a mistake and opened the app a second time and it did it again. Wow, your app is harmful through its poor design. In response, yes you can go in the settings and adjust the volume, however why would that be the initial setting and why should the app always override the volume?
5 ★ Very generous of the developer. Thank you very much Andrea. This is the best app being so simple yet very effective. Just using this app in its current form makes you feel convinced of being transformed. This app is vipassana in its truest essence. If I ask for more features, why am I even practicing Vipassana? Thanks so much. As I've been using the app for a few days now. Oh boy, am I tempted to suggest to add this or change this or that. Simplicity is key to an untroubled mind. Thanks.
4 ★ I like the app, it keeps me more focused when I know the time runs. unfortunately if a session is disrupted the time yet meditated doesn't count, which is a pity. I.e. I start a 60' session. If it disrupted in the 55'. it doesn't count. seeing the daily counter it is not considered. could you pls count the minutes until the disruption? Metta
5 ★ Awesome app, totally free, no problems at all. Easy to use and lots of personalizations
5 ★ Very good simple mediation timer that does its job. It would be nice addition if one can chooses between sounds when the leading time ends and the meditation starts, like one is able to do that for the end of the sitting session. Also the session loop is very good addition.
5 ★ Simple and straightforward meditation timer...just what I was looking for. Excellent.
5 ★ Good app clear and simple. Allows you to increase your meditation time by five minute increments.
2 ★ Just use inbuilt stopwatch which is already in your Android or iOS. No relevance of this app because it has only stopwatch function . It should have teachings of guru and other stuff relevant for meditation. People who gave 5 stars are unknown about basic features that your mobile already provide. Don't sign in with Google as Google collects your data.
5 ★ It just the timer like stopwatch and there is no voice guidance . Beginners will struggle with timings and without meditation guidance. So it ll b suitable to all the meditators !! M Vipassana meditator completed my courses in Dhamma setu centre !! Finally it just a timer !! Wakes u up by sound once time gets over !! Useful for me !!
