About this app

Tap the screen and let it ring — a sound to settle your mind.

Ullim helps you meditate and rest with two sounds: the singing bowl and the moktak (a Korean wooden temple block). Tap anywhere on the screen to strike once, or press Auto to let it ring by itself for as long as you choose.

■ Singing Bowl
A clear tone that lingers for more than 20 seconds after a single strike. On Auto it strikes again every few seconds, layering each new tone over the last. Choose an interval from 8 to 60 seconds.

■ Moktak
A short, crisp wooden knock, recorded from a real moktak. Set the interval from 0.3 to 3 seconds and keep a steady rhythm. The scene is a rainy hanok.

■ Auto-ring timer
Set a duration from 1 to 60 minutes and Ullim rings on its own while the remaining time shows in large type. It keeps going with the screen off or while you use other apps, and the time left stays on the notification. Tap Stop to end it instantly.

■ Ways to use it
· As a signal to begin and end meditation or yoga
· To quiet your mind before sleep, study or focused work
· To keep time for chanting or prostration practice

■ Light and private
No sign-up, no login. Your settings and strike counts stay on your device, and every sound is built in, so it works offline. Haptics can be turned on or off for each sound. On a Korean device the app is in Korean. Every other language uses English.

Ullim is free and shows a banner ad at the bottom of the screen.
