This Ap does not come with directions It is set for 10 minutes and no way to do anything else     Wasted my money Luis Grover

Still no apparent support at developer s page Can I get my 0 99 back I found this listed as working with 4 2 1 but I ve now found another page saying it won t     Found a different description saying it will NOT work with 4 2 1 Hank Roberts

This is a fine app if you re looking for a simple starting and stopping bell over a fixed time period plus a small optional preparation period like 30 seconds to get into position you can adjust the time before the first start bell rings I appreciate the clean and simple interface not full of bells and whistles both figuratively and literally since there s one count em one chime which sounds great If comes up short if you want intervals or repetition There s a Repeat option that sets the timer to restart and restart and restart and restart never stopping until you go back to the settings and turn it off Exiting the app postpones the restart the app will chime immediately when you return to it Makes me wonder if they ever actually tried to use this feature A setting to let you set the number of restarts would turn this from a face plant into a winner             Good for single sitting bad for repetition yadayada999

We hope customers writing negative opinions will act in good faith and revisit their reviews to reflect the changes in current updates Almost all negative reviews are related to some iPhones going to sleep an issue which was fixed long ago in version 1 0 1 made available around September 8th We apologize on behalf of Apple for taking so long releasing the update which was completed some two weeks before it appeared on the App Store If users are still seeing issues we have a support email set up to give us quick feedback Reviews sometimes take more than a day to get posted Lograh Your inflammatory remarks does unfortunately not show much understanding of the iPhone platform As 3d party developers we are not allowed to physically lower the brightness of the display unless we let the iPhone go to sleep which as you so kindly remind us halts Meditation Timer so it won t ring when the time is out One thing we could do is fake lowering the brightness by darkening the image we display but that would do little to improve battery life since the light output would be constant If you come up with a technical solution for this issue by all means let us know However dimming the screen would probably help alleviate screen burn in fears which is why we re planning on adding something like this if there s user demand for it The next version 1 0 2 submitted a week ago will add an option to disable vibration on the iPhone I am the developer of Meditation Timer and thus set a neutral rating of three stars                 Re problems avocadetest

There is no cancel or pause button If you start a session and quit the app before it ends the timer will continue to run and you will hear the chime next time you start the app No choice of chimes         Mediocre Eugene26k

I might as well have staid with te timer provided with the phone s clock At the very least I expected an array of chimes tones sounds Don t waste your money     Worthless Luna241

Worthless piece of crap     Piece of crap 223Rock

Sometimes I need to pause the timer somwtimes I want to Tap to start It could be elegant instead of fair so close and yet so far             Fair but no pause button reset take too long zkwest4

Emulating something as simple as a timer has to have the simple functionality of pausing the count Life has interruptions hello Pretty colors and some features which would be nice were they not trivialized by what s lacking quickly deleted     fail Bhnu

A cute little app that worked for a few days But the gong stopped sounding and I don t know why So it quickly became useless     Not reliable ChristinaAlma

It works well                     the way it is AmosM

I found this app to be very useful I request a volume control within the app for the gong I don t like having to turn my whole phone s volume down and found the gong startling Otherwise nicely done             Nice Have request Bean345

I use that application everyday day for my meditation exercises The preparation time feature is very useful and this application never crashed I ve been using it for over a year now on a daily basis Love the gong sound too                     Does enough for me vHoon

This simple timer would be much more helpful if you could stop and restart             Simple Timer Daily Seeker

I love this app It s the gong that sold me on it But recently the sound stopped working I ve reinstalled it tried tweaking the settings but I m still not getting any sound Any ideas I m running it on my iPod Touch thx                     Great app but the sound stopped working fraterpater

Very nice clean and simple app for meditators Interface is well designed Feature request I d like to be able to add a dedication screen that I could have come up at when the timer ends Maybe in the preferences allow me to type in the text of the dedication prayer                 Very elegant and simple AnotherBlueDog

i love this app and i use it daily for my own meditation sessions and once a week for our meditation group the large numbers are great as is the preparation countdown which i find so very helpful my only suggestion for it would be to offer a variety of gong sounds to choose from i find the default one a bit brassy for my tastes or maybe even let us choose our own sound from our ringtone list just a thought thank you for this app                     almost perfect Bombay M.D.

This app is stylish and feels solid well written but it doesn t really offer any significant functionality over the built in timer in the Clock app It feels like the developers focused on slick aesthetics over usability For a meditation timer I want a wide selection of sounds various bells and bowls and very customizable ring times Ring three times in 30 seconds then once after ten minutes then once 30 minutes later then three more times 40 minutes later I want all the options exposed easily in a nice usable UI Meditation timer offers basically none of that You can set a preparation time after which it rings once and then rings once more after your set meditation time There is only one sound Also while this is subjective I found the sound harsh and it ended far too soon I like listening to the tail of the singing bowl noise In this app it rings for a few seconds and then cuts out You can do essentially all of this with the built in clock timer except the preparation period but it s not that hard to just get set up and then lean out and hit Start Furthermore the UI for this app goes for looks over functionality When you launch it you get the very attractive timer screen But there s no functionality on it You need to double tap to get to settings In fact you always need to double tap every time you launch the app because the timer doesn t auto restart so when you launch it s at 00 00 In Settings there s a Restart button which you always have to hit There s no reason to have the pleasant purple or green timer screen at all though unless you meditate while staring at your phone I meditate with my eyes closed or barely open or else looking at the ground while I walk Having the timer screen at all is just a nuisance since it means you have to double tap to go to Settings all the time to do anything I m disappointed in this application I don t mean to be mean but I can t understand what the developers were thinking It offers so little functionality beyond the built in Clock timer and exposes it in an obfuscated way it just feels like they wanted to make something that looked nice but didn t really think about how meditators might want to use it     Mostly looks little substance bhsharp

I agree that this app seems a perfect match for iPhone owning meditators I also agree that this app is a bit limited if you have auto lock set on your phone the phone locks and the alarm will not wake the phone I m not sure if the SDK gives the developer access to wake the device but if it does it would be nice saves energy by shutting off the screen yet still is functional Having the screen off is also nice as it prevents peeking at the time for those whose concentration might be wandering All said this could soon be a 5 star app and would be used twice daily by many users                 Almost there McYogi

Would be great to have option to set number of rings I prefer 3 bells start and stop     Excellent mbadgett

In general I really like this app It would be helpful if you could reset the timer using a single gesture rather than having to open the settings and tap reset             Good but needs improvement DSimmons

I see that the upcoming upgrade will allow the user to dim the lighting on the iPhone It would also be great if an option allowed you to mute the sound s notifying you of incoming e mail or phone calls which certainly can disrupt meditation while allowing for the sound of the bell notifying you of the end of the meditation Whether this is possible I don t know but the sound of the bell is pleasing while of course the sound of an e mail message being delivered to your iPhone during meditation is not welcome understanding of course there is an option to place the notification on vibrate                 Mute Some But Not All Sound NONICKNAME5

I have used this a lot since it was free for meditation and for short naps The updates have been helpful and address all the issues seen in the negative reviews so I give it one extra star It is a nice timer that has the benefits of a calm appearance and a settable preparation time before the timer starts I m not sure I would have paid for it but my suggestion would be to offer some options to the bell sound If your speaker volume is up too loud or if your phone is too close to you the sound can freak you out                     Zennish ScottNewton09

In the first version this didn t ring if the screen went blank before time was up a simple bug and one that was reported as such Now the author has decided that it is easier to disable the screen blanking entirely rather than make the app work properly Using this your iPhone will be lit the whole time running down your batteries and disturbing the darkness of the room and possibly damaging your screen as well it can t be healthy to have a static image displayed for a solid 30 minutes or more The author clearly chose to take the lazy way out and hide the defect in this program rather than address the user complaints and fix the bug in an honest manner As such I can not in good faith recommend this program to anyone     Defective by design Lograh.

When the phone goes to sleep so does the timer hopefully this will be fixed in future release     Useless topcattcw

This looks beautiful and I love the icon for the app but it doesn t work Am I the only one with this problem I set the sound but when the time runs out nothing plays I change the length of time on the timer and click start but the old time remains         So disappointed a.mac

When my Phone goes to sleep the timer doesn t go off Please fix             Needs to wake up from sleep Wolfharte

Not worth 0 99 Just use your iPhone timer with Harp If you need a good free timer download Zencast s 10 20 or 30 minute mp3 s Then support them by paying the 4 bucks for their Meditator app         Free yes Pay no lonnie247

I had high hopes for this app but since it is rendered useless after a couple of minutes when the phone goes to sleep and the screen goes black I ll have to just recommend using the timer that comes pre installed on the iPhone Hopefully there will be an update that either keeps the iPhone awake while the program is running or wakes up the phone and sounds the chime when the timer is up Until then     Pretty much useless stlredbird

Yes folks if you set your iPhone screen to go black after 2 minutes and you meditation is longer than that then the alarm will not sound Did anyone test this thing Absolutely useless     Useless if you meditation time exceeds the screen blank time new.nick.name

Thanks for putting up a clean and simple mediation timer And can t beat the price                     Nice work Orci

Like the application But would love a volume control for my iPod Touch             Nice idea ShibaChica

This is a great app but it s bad that vibrate can t be disabled Hearing a loud buzz sound on your table as the phone vibrates is not the most gentle way to come out of meditation             Great app but make vibrate an option CaptSaltyJack

I love this app Cool idea cool interface                     Pretty Cool Shivam21

I would say that overall this is a great App Simple and clean My only suggestion would be to make the font a little more appealing It doesn t really fit the background maybe make it look more like the text on the icon white background green text dark border Just an idea Great Jon                 Pretty Nice jpop825

Exactly what I was planning to write Thanks                     Great Work Eric Moritz
