No unnecessary voice over guide. No background music or ambient sounds. Just you and your mind, the way mindfulness meditation was meant to be.
Center is an elegant meditation timer which tracks your sittings in a beautiful and simple way. With HealthKit integration so you can see your daily mindfulness practice stats right from the Health app.
The app uses haptic feedback in addition to classic meditation chimes: one chime to start, one chime for intervals, and three consecutive chimes for ending a meditation session.
Before you begin you can edit your sit time, set a delay to prepare, plan interval sounds to keep you focused, and get meditation insights. After each session the app tracks your meditation practice and provides custom insights to help you. This is what makes Center a valuable app: simplicity and a tailored experience to improve your practice the more you use the app.
# Distraction-free meditation
Many meditation apps like Calm and Headspace are filled with ambient music or voiceovers which distract from the purpose of the meditation. The goal of mindfulness meditation isn't to control your thoughts or breathing: it's simply for you to observe and be mindful of those things.
# Discover meditation insights and tips
It's easy to lose track of your meditation habit if you're not monitoring progress or getting feedback along the way. The more you use Center the more the app learns about your practice and can offer custom insights into how to get more from your meditation.
# Customize your practice for you
If your practice includes different stages within a single session, you can set interval chimes to ring (traditional singing bowl sound). You can sit for as short as 1 minute or as long as an hour (using repetitive timers for sitting even longer).
Use interval chimes to help re-orient you during your session and a daily meditation reminder to keep your habit going.
# Track your meditation habits
Easy-to-read visuals show your meditation practice at-a-glance and the app tracks everything from the average time of your sittings, what days and times you typically sit, how long you've been practicing, your current and longest meditation streaks, and more.
The app has been carefully designed for everyone from junior to seasoned meditation practitioners. For fans of the now defunct app Equanimity - Meditation Timer & Tracker by Robin Barooah, as featured on NPRs All Tech Considered.

• Daily meditation reminders

Great app, no unecessary features
I ditched an expensive annual headspace subscription for this, it is everything i need. set me a timer for 15 mins, logs the minutes in apple health. it is everything a meditation timer should be- simple, no fuss, calming. i would happily buy the author a few coffees for their time if that was available. one possible minor improvement might be to allow a new user to transfer their existing “streak” to the new app. as it is, i use the streaks app to track this so i could maintain my count. headspace is long gone. big thumbs up for this one 👍.
Great. Simple and to the point.
Thank you
Beautiful, doesn't work
I’ve tried using this app on my watch but unfortunately it never gives the end bell. I understand you can never have too much meditation, though this is a stressful way to reinforce that principle
Why does the interval sound not work?
I like the app, it’s got a simple interface. But the intervals just vibrate a tiny bit rather than make a sound. I have my phone’s volume on and do not disturb is off.
Doesn’t seem to work on latest OS
Looks great but as soon as I hit start it immediately ends. Maybe a bug with the latest iOS. Makes meditation practice very easy and quick. I’d not that effective 😂
Perfect
A simple, yet elegant meditation app that syncs with your health data. No unnecessary subscriptions, data gathering or ‘guidance’. Just you and your mind, as it should be.
Doesn’t work on watch
The app looks nice, unfortunately it doesn’t work on my watch. I start a meditation, look at my watch later and it’s on the Home Screen. I open the app again and it offers me the option to start a meditation.
Great until sounds stopped
I noticed after a few sessions the sound reminder stipe spending with no way to review this in the app settings shame as nice app
Perfect
I’ve been looking for this for soooo long! Simple and unpretentious. 🙏🏼
Nice design but
Would use it if it didn’t 1. Cut out music when I started it and 2. Switch off if I leave the app. Unless these issues are fixed I will have to stick with insight timer, shame bc I love the design of this app
