I really want to be able to say I simply love this app. I do love how simple it is, how it doesn't add extra distractions when I sit down to meditate. It's just a timer. However, it has a bug that really compromises its usefulness. Every so often, the timer doesn't go off. I eventually open my eyes to find a message saying that the app was unable to set the gong volume. This only happens occasionally, but it's often enough that I can't trust the app as a reliable timer.

Missing two simple features that would warrant 5 stars. First, there's no interval gong to bring you back. That should be adjustable every X minutes. Second, there aren't different gong or chime sounds to choose from. Those were two of the key features I was seeking. I wanted a starting gong, different interval gongs every 3 minutes, and a conclusion going (same as start). Otherwise, decent app, simple layout. The settings should show current meditation length...not hidden until selected.

It's exactly what I wanted. No ads, no nothing, simply a timer that gives _one_ sound instead of jumping up and down until I hit it. Haven't dug into the options yet, but I saw that there's a few things that you can tune, too, so don't let my minimalist description deter you from seeing if this is for you ^^
