Timefully • Meditation Timer 4+

This Meditation App Inspired by Cosmic Conciousness

I have used this meditation app for many years and it has helped me open the windows shuttering my own consciousness. My initial foray into meditation relied on guided meditation apps which I found extremely distracting as they hindered my attempts to concentrate on knowing God. This app does not purport to teach me how to meditate. Its strength lies in the ability to create an environment compatible with embracing the silence in order to commune with the soul within. External voices simply multiply the dance of thoughts, and memories thereby creating ever more disturbing waves of distractions. With this app, I am able to calm those waves in my efforts to unshackle the soul. No app can transmit the meditation experience mechanically. Meditation is an individualized experience just like the soul is an individualized part of the spirit of God. Further, this app inspires you to be consistent in your practice, giving you measures of your progress through time. I cannot enumerate all the benefits I obtained from this app, but one should consider it if one wants to experience the true art of meditation!

Fantastic!! Great for TM

I always felt distracted peeking at the clock during meditation to check the time. This app solves that problem by playing a gentle sound after your 30 second warm up, after your meditation and finally after your cool down. There are profiles for other forms of meditation as well.

The app is very thoughtfully designed and honestly is just so much better and more than I expected. The time tracking features are great, the selection of sounds to choose for the timer are great, the ability to fade in the sound is so appreciated. I love the milestones and the ability to set reminder notifications. I'm so impressed with this app! Big thanks to the developer. My wife and I happily paid for lifetime subscriptions even though we don't have Apple watches (yet).

One feature request: I would love to be able to import my own mp3 for the timer sound.

Developer Response ,

Thanks a lot for the wonderful feedback! So happy to hear you like Timefully!

Will look into the import your own mp3-part. If possible, reach out to hi@timefully.co and tell a bit more about this request. Do you want to update sounds frequently, or would adding a few new sounds to the base set that comes with the app be enough?

Thanks again for the feedback & have a nice day /

Premium features without distractions!

If you do shikantaza, breath awareness, or any other type of “just sit” meditation, this is hands-down the best app available. It allows you to set customizable timers with bells, and to set notifications by day of the week. You can start a session — silently if you like — from your watch. If you do, it tracks your heart rate and exports it to the health app. Then it logs the length of your sit and tracks your habits across time.

That’s pretty much it! No guided meditations or lectures to buy, just an app to track your mediations efficiently and without distraction. Where Headspace and Calm charge $13 per month, this app is $14 for lifetime full access.

The only thing I would improve is the heart rate tracking. Some others can write Heart Rate Variability (HRV) data to the Health app, and that’s nice data to have to see meditation’s effect on your stress levels.

Thank you for the feedback! Wonderful to read this kind of review.

We are looking into the heart rate tracking (including HRV) and will release updates over the next couple of months. I'll keep you posted here once the updates are available in the Timefully app.

Thank you for helping us make the app better,
