Think 1st — then program!

QualityInsister

The only reason I still use this app is because I paid for it. The developers either don’t meditate themselves, or just didn’t think this one through. Who would design a meditation timer that does not work if you have your phone on silent?????! If I use this, I will be beeped, belled and bonged continually. Another oversight is the manner in which intervals can be set to sound during the meditation period. You can only determine the number of intervals, not their duration. This rather defeats the purpose. Finally, there is no choice for sounds used for start/end of meditation and intervals. Conclusion: keep looking, this one’s not fully cooked.....


Just enough

This simple app embodies zen practice. All you need is a place to sit, I recommend a zafu (round cushion) placed atop a zabuton (flat rectangular cushion) facing a wall, with your zen timer set to as many minutes as you desire. Bows.


Simple is perfect

It’s simple, elegant, and exactly what I wanted. Thank you.


Simple

A chime to start, a chime to finish, nothing in between. Exactly what I wanted.


Great timer

Gtduser13

Does what it says and does it well. I use it daily for zazen.


Nice and simple

Dr. Dharma

The look and function are very nice. Such a simple (but elegant) timer for an extraordinary purpose.


Benevolence...

Dharma Daniel

Benevolence... I only make it to the zen center once a week for an hour sit because of my schedule. This perfectly helps me keep time whenever I practice zazen ??


Perfect

Little woobie

Zazen Timer does exactly what I need it to. Simple and elegant, it’s a timer with a lovely chime. That’s it!


No bell goes off

Natacudoc

No bell goes of on mine. I wish it had some choices of bells and blocks to start and end meditation. Disappointed and want my money back.


Great app with one annoy flaw

pywellb

Overall I love the simplicity of this app. However it’s very frustrating that it can’t override the silence option on the iPhone, meaning I have to switch between silent and sound mode every time I use it. And if I forget, find my phone ringing loudly in a meeting the next day.
