Meditation Helper

Thank you for making this app, it is great. I am not sure why but the timer is not quite accurate... It lags. Possible additions I'd enjoy are a choice of bell, gong, or Om sound. Also I'd enjoy an option for 'rest time' at the end to give some time to re-adjust to "normal life mode". Thanks again.

I wish I could give it 5 but there's a problem with setting bell intervals that makes it very frustrating to use. I wanted to create a profile for a 20 minute meditation that has a bell interval that rings after 5 minutes, then after 10, then after 5 again. However no matter how I try to edit it (either when creating the profile or editing it after creation) the intervals always set to 5, 5, 10. It will not allow me to put the 10 minute interval in the middle, and when I edit it it just automatically changes the 10 minute bell interval to the last interval. Fix this and I will give 5 stars. If not, I'll have to download another meditation app.

This app has become indispensable to me. I not only use it for meditation, but for exercises related to energy work and development of magickal skills. Often these exercises are complex arrangements of several techniques performed in succession over a given period of time. This little app is perfect for that, with its capacity for regular, timed intervals marked with an unobtrusive bell. I know when to move on without becoming distracted by the interval bells.

Easy to use and helps as a reminder to practice. Recommended as a soothing timer for your practice time and as a way to keep track of how often you're practicing. The settings for daily reminders are very helpful.

Only what you need. All wheat no chaff. Would give 5 stars but the auto silent mode does not seem to work properly on android 6 – it also sets the media volume to 0 so then the bell does not sound. So now I have to do this manually at start and end of each session. However it is not such a big deal as because Google restricted auto airplane mode access for all apps I have to do this manually anyway too–so I just switch them both on/off manually at start/end of seasons.

This apps has everything I need, but noticed the "Disable Screen Lock" isn't working. My Note 2 screen locks even though m edition session is ongoing. Please look into this. Thanks.

I tried so many other apps for meditating. This one is the best. Simple. Easy. You decided the bells and interval times. No confusion.

I've used this app for over 3 years and I loved it, but now the ability to block calls and message tones is gone. It may not be the apps fault but the bottom line is that as of this writing (March 4 2015) it no longer blocks incoming calls or text message tones and that is not conducive to uninterrupted meditation.

Not user friendly. I must be dense. The preset 30 minute setting kept showing up when I wanted the one I created. I could not discard it. Now I cannot get the app off my phone.

was OK when I use it initially, but recently, the bell doesn't ring according to the interval that i set. very disappointed

I'd love to give this 5 stars, because I use this app daily. But the latest version is broken. Firstly the alarm at the end of my session doesn't work any more. Nothing happens at the end of the session, the countdown timer simply displays "--/--". Only when I push the stop button does the chime sound go off. Secondly auto airplane mode - would love to see it working again. If those two issues were fixed, I'd give this 5 stars and pay for the pro version.

I've installed 10ish other timers, like: Buddhist meditation trainer, Zazen, insight, Vipassana and Calm. But this is the best one. Simplicity and sense. I've bought the pro out of respect and support to to dev. Dev: thank you for making my vision on a meditation timer :) if non of the meditation timers would fit me, I would've made it this way! Please keep it KISS!

The intermediate bells help our mind to revert back from worldly thoughts and concentrate only on mantra vibration. Thx

Excellent! It works very well, and it's pretty thorough with the options to set up how do you want the device to behave while you're meditating: alarms, calls, connectivity, etc...

Sitting time, widget to see your streak, very nice bell, no annoying music or ads or limits. Overall very good app.

Silences the phone, including calls and texts, automatically (optional). Nothing flashy, nothing missing.

The app's fairly simple, yet it has many useful options. I would like to see another couple of bell sounds, but still it deserves 5 stars.

I can't get the sound of the bells. I've gone through the settings 10 times and I've definitely set it up so I have 1 bell to ring at the start, 1 at half the time and 1 at the end but nothing happens

very useful app. recommend to read the instruction for the widget: "Don't break the chain," he said again for emphasis. The widget displays the chain of days where you have hit your meditation target.

Need bell at intervals but fails to ring every so often as set.

Sweet n simple.

This is a very basic timer, and works well for what it is; having meditated with monastics, I came to prefer a variety of bell sounds, rather than the simple, tinkly bell like this one. I much prefer the Insight Timer over this one - multiple choices for the sounds of various bells, bowls, and gongs.

Since last update the app stopped blocking calls and texts notifications.I had to unisall and reinstalled twice.

I teach meditation. This is the only app I use.

Everything I could ask for, love this app from the meditation log to the settings control to the customizable reminder... brilliant!

Been using this for a while and it's great! But I recently upgraded to android 6.0 and the "disable screen lock" function doesn't seem to work. Please fix it.

Has really helped me get into a daily meditation habit over the past year

I love this app. It is the best meditation timer I have ever used or seen. If you want a good daily meditation practice with no fuss and could use some encouragement, this app is for you!

This is a fantastic application.

This app has the best timing features of all the 10 I've tried and the developer is polite and not pushy to buy. I recommend buying :)

Love how flexible this is. Just would really prefer a choice of bells and for sitting stats to be available as a graph. Would even pay for an upgrade if this can be done. Please :)

No frills, just a great set of timers for mediating

I use it whenever I use a timer to meditate. I also use it to do timed drawings. Definitely deserves my 5

Where did the flight mode go? I'm so OVER getting calls during a meditation! ! The last version I had on my old phone turned it to flight mode as soon as a med started... bring it back!!

Where's the flight mode? Put it back please. It was such a wonderful feature as it automatically turn on and off all communication and gave you proper silence when meditation time started and finished respectively. Overall very complete but 5 stars if that tool was available again

Works well and is a must have for any one with stress or something of a need to chillax.
