About this app

This application assists with both timed (via duration or ending at a specific time) and untimed sessions, with numerous customizations, including start/interval/end sounds and device behavior. It also provides a monthly overview of your progress.

A major feature in this application is the ability to share your sessions online. Though entirely optional, sharing your progress online adds another dimension to your accountability. Now that you've gone public, as your meditation streak increases more users will see it as a goal of their own. One user has posted over 500 days of consecutive days of meditation.

Your meditation streak is the number of consecutive days you have recorded at least one session. As your streak grows, "not breaking the chain" becomes quite important. Soon you will be meditating once a day, even if it's five or ten minutes out of your schedule.

Key features:
- Automatically put your device into priority only, alarms only, vibrate or silent mode while meditating
- Choose from several included meditation sounds, or use a sound file of your own
- Play an interval sound at a duration of your choice
- Pause your session and come back to it when you're ready
- Post meditation sessions online to MediNET, and visit the MediNET meditation forum
- Choose any Holo theme for the application: light, light with dark action bar, or dark
- Many more features are included, and new features are added with each version

Love the simple interface and customisable features. REVIEW UPDATE: After trying again to import over 350 meditation logs from another app I can say I got it working! However, it was not very intuitive on what the file structure for the imports should be. My rough guide: Use the text editor as Excel corrupts the data encoding, ignore the session ID field to avoid errors, dates need to have time in the same column, note field is also not required. The file encoding requires double brackets "".

No annoying ads. All the features I needed with no bloat. The app is intuitive to use, ite interface is efficient, and it's straight to the point. My only minor quibble is I would like more control over the interface colours. Also would be handy to have more control over presets, ie set specific intervals for each one rather than just start end. It's a keeper. Would pay actually if they introduce a pro version.

Unfortunately on my Pixel 1 the timer doesn't reliably end, I need to set the phone's timer to make sure that I end my session. I set the system timer to 30s longer than the meditation time and it always goes off first. Otherwise I like the simple streak tracking of the app so I still use it for that, always concurrent with the system timer.
