About this app

Mindfulness Chime is a hourly chime app (also known as a talking clock, speaking clock, hourly alert, hourly beep, hourly reminder, hourly signal or just a blip blip) that help you to tracking time better with 5 mins, 10 mins, quarter-hourly, half-hourly and hourly reminder chimes.

Ever lose track of time? An hourly chime and speaking clock app can be your secret weapon! Stay on top of your schedule with gentle chimes or spoken announcements, letting you know the time without glancing at your phone.

This is especially helpful for safe driving, keeping your eyes on the road. For those who experience "time blindness," regular chimes can be a lifesaver, helping you stay mindful of the day and avoid feeling overwhelmed.

What Mindfulness Chime (Hourly Chime & Speaking Clock) can do?

PLAY SOUND REGULARLY
- Play the sound regularly, helping you stay mindful of how much time has passed. Choose from preset intervals like 5, 10, 15, 30 minutes, or even 1 hour to perfectly match your workflow.
- You can also set different sounds for specific intervals! This way, you'll instantly know how much time has passed without even checking the clock. With unique sounds for different time-frames, you can easily develop a system to stay on top of your tasks.

SPEAK THE TIME OUT LOUD
- Ever miss a beat! Our app can speak the time out loud, so you can stay on top of your schedule without glancing at your phone.
- Free your eyes! Our app can announce the time, letting you multitask or stay focused without needing your phone.
- Stay in the moment! Listen to the spoken time instead of checking your phone and avoid unnecessary interruptions.


WHAT ELSE?
Don't let important tasks slip through the cracks! This app goes beyond just a simple reminder. It's a flexible tool that adapts to your needs! Here are some ways you can use it:
- Stay Hydrated: Set hourly chimes to remind yourself to take a sip of water and stay hydrated throughout the day.
- Safe Driving: Use the speaking clock feature to hear the time announced while keeping your eyes on the road. This is a safer alternative to glancing at your phone.
- Stretch it Out: Schedule regular chimes (e.g., every 30 minutes) as a gentle reminder to get up and stretch your body, improving posture and reducing fatigue.

This is just the beginning! Get creative and use the app in any way that helps you stay organized and productive!

Ratings and reviews

Needed a simple hourly and half hourly chime to replace all older app no longer being updated. Tried 3 or 4 before landing on this. Had a few issues early where sometimes it would not chime, but haven't had that issue for several days now. Working well, easy to set up and let's me use my own sounds. Very nice!

Everything I've been trying to find in a timer for almost a decade. I've downloaded more recurring timer apps than I can count, and this is the only one that does it exactly the way I've been wanting. Even the ones that came close lacked the most vital feature: having the time spoken aloud. That alone makes this the only app I'll ever use for this purpose, my ADHD brain absolutely requires it. You've given me back hours I would have wasted and control of my life, thank you!

App is small and works as expected. There is only a single ad each time you open the controls, and the free version requires you to open the controls at least 1 time every 3 days, which is not horrible, but with my ADHD, it was too hard to remember, so I bought the paid version. I am very happy with it.
