Transcend Meditation Timer

Transcend Timer is a simple and elegant meditation timer which can automatically silence your device while you meditate and restore volume settings when finished whilst ensuring that the display doesn't sleep in the meanwhile. Here are some of Transcend Timer's features:

- One tap meditation: no need to open a stopwatch app, silence the phone and check display timeout
- Full screen 'immersive' mode while you meditate hides status and navigation bars
- Attractive display with analogue and digital time readouts
- Prevents display from sleeping during meditation
- Silences phone ringer during meditation
- Android Marshmallow and Nougat users can choose between Do Not Disturb (DND) modes 'total silence' and 'alarms only' with the previous DND mode restored automatically
- Restores previous ringer / DND settings when meditation is finished
- Choice of display themes, a dark ‘night’ display, a light ‘day’ display and an auto setting that will automatically choose between dark and light settings
- Currently Transcend Timer does not signal the end of the meditation period with a sound, this option is coming shortly

Transcend Timer is suitable for use by practitioners of Transcendental Meditation or any other meditation technique that does not require any external auditory stimuli.

This is the free version of the app. After a seven day ad-free period, it will show an ad after each meditation. A paid version without ads will shortly be released.

Transcendental Meditation is a trademark of the Maharishi Foundation.

This app has been absolutely extraordinary in how useful it is whilst remaining incredibly simple to use. My favorite features are the ability to silence specific notifications, or all notifications - and the optional soft "gong" sound after the meditation, which is such a beautiful sound even if the volume was accidentally left on too high. Other very noteworthy and useful features are the ability to change the timer length and the countdown colors to any color imaginable. Thank you!!

Simple. What I love about this app is its simplicity. When meditating, more options just add to distractions. There are already enough in our busy culture, and meditation can be a struggle. This app is beautiful in how one may choose to activate do not disturb mode when the timer is going. It is more than a timer, it's a beneficial tool for meditation.

Great app, easy to use and clean design. It'd be good to add different gong sounds, and perhaps an option to have a bell or different gong ring at a chosen frequency instead of only at the end.

Perfect! I use Meditation Timer twice a day, every day, and I like it a lot. I'd suggest an option to select a larger display size so I can see it more easily when I'm meditating without my glasses.

It's a simple timer. No ads, nothing fancy. The only other feature it has is that it can silence notifications or alarms but that's it. Exactly what I was looking for

Great little app. I haven't noticed any bugs yet. I like the gong volume control. I change it up depending on where I'm meditating.

If you want a meditation timer with a selection of gongs and a volume setting independent of your ringer/notification volume, this is it. There IS an annoying "Rate this App" popup. Hopefully I'm disabling it by doing this.

Simple and peaceful way to begin and end meditation time. Very easy to use. Very easy to customize.

Jon. C. Mar 25, 2022     

Elegant and easy to use with a lovely gong sound on the timer. Sets the standard for this kind of meditation tool.

app is great, but how much fu*king updates do you need for a simple dimer app??? it literally said i cant use it after 8 days unless i update....and it always naggs for updates... the TIMER APP!!! jesus christ. Enough with the updates already!

Joe. L. Mar 8, 2022     

Does the job I want it to. Appreciate the dark color scheme. My only enhancement request would be to have ability to set back to back timers. So setting a primary timer, say for 20 minutes, and then a secondary timer for 2 minutes that begins once the initial 20 minutes ends.

It silences all audio on my phone and I must restart the phone to restore sound to other apps. I tried unchecking the "total silence", and closing the app after use. Nothing helped. Uninstalled and trying another app.

I love this app; it is simple with the chime and can block notifications so you can focus on the practice.

onu. d. Apr 22, 2022     

simple yet beautiful app, instantly my phone turned to a sand watch.Sounds and new animations can be added in future updates. Thank you Bro.

Bru. C. Apr 2, 2022     

No option for a gong to start meditation ? All meditations start and end with a chime or gong. Will reinstall when start sound is available.

As simple as meditation itself but without all the constantly-getting-in-its-own-way.

Rob. T. L. Feb 21, 2022     

Exactly what I was looking for! I can't stand guided meditations, I just want an app that will let me meditate in silence and let me know when my chosen amount of time has passed with a peaceful, meditative sound. Check, check, and check. And it's free! Thank you developers! 💗

I can confidently sit with eyes closed while meditating because of this app. Very good experience

Simple and minimal design. Functional. The gong could be more pleasant

mik. p. Nov 7, 2020     

I really like the simplicity of your app! I just noticed this morning that it hadn't disabled the "do not disturb" after ending the meditation. So alarms etc were missed.. This is quite crucial to get set back to normal. Having to double check that the mode is disabled defeats the purpose. Would this be something you could have a look at, or can I provide some log to help troubleshoot?

B. H. Apr 26, 2021     

Doesn't work for me at all. It's supposed to count down the time, and make a sound at the end of the time, but it does not make a sound. Instead it puts up a message that says it can't adjust the volume of the gong, and to try manually switching off Do Not Disturb in my phone settings. Tried this various different ways (before launching the app, before setting the timer, after setting the timer) but the same thing happens. EDIT after reply: already had Total Silence selected so still no fix...

Ada. W. Dec 18, 2020     

Works perfectly! I've been using this for a few months as a replacement for Headspace now I feel like I've graduated from thier guided meditation. It works perfectly for me, nice and simple, no adds and no permissions. It's very reliable as long as you don't sleep the phone. It keeps the phone silent the whole time and after until you stop it which is more than I hoped for but absolutely ideal as it lets me finish without distraction.

Jac. B. Dec 27, 2019     

The gong does not reliably work. About 25% of the time I open my eyes after who knows how long to see a message saying that the app could not set gong volume, and something about the DND settings (I have them switched on). This means that I don't trust it the rest of the time, which is a distraction. In response to feedback: the real problem is the inconsistency. Since it works fine 75% of the time, most of the time I spend checking the settings will be unnecessary.

Jam. B. Dec 15, 2019     

Great app, perfectly minimalist. My one gripe is that there seems to be a bug which causes the analogue clock display to count down in half the time (eg in 5 minutes when you set a 10 minute timer) but this is purely cosmetic. Edit: No, it is a bug. If I set it for 1 minute the rotation takes 30 seconds and so on.

Kat. H. Dec 29, 2020     

Does just what it says it will with no distracting extras. A clock with adjustable time and background color, a single gong at the end with adjustable volume. That's it! One tip: when I use it in the car, I turn off the bluetooth on my phone first. Otherwise the chime rings silently somewhere in cyberspace.

Ell. J. Feb 18, 2021     

Basically perfect, it's minimal (ideal for trance states), functional, and allows turning on do not disturb automatically. My only gripe is that I can't use my own audio file. I often get so lost in my chanting (which is fairly low pitched) that I cannot hear the built-in gong over the mantra permeating my being. I prefer higher pitched singing bowls/bells to cut through the trance. If I could set my own sound file for the gong, this would a a no-brainer 5 start app.

Nic. M. Oct 26, 2020     

Great app. Near perfect. It's nice you can change the colour of the timer and background. It would be nicer if you could also change the colour of the pause button. As I have set everything to be dark, but the pause button is so bright, it sort of defeats the purpose. Still 5/5 though.

Great app for meditation simple timer let's you set and go quickly with a bonus of a large display

All I need is a simple timer, and this is it. A nice sounding deep logo gong at the end.
