Zen Reminder - Mindfulness Bell

I like this simple app I use it to time my daily meditation I actually have it on my iPad missed that it was a phone app Works fine                 Useful and traditional

Great support for mindfulness practice                 When you need to be reminded this app supports a mindfulness practice

The bell tone is at a perfect pitch a relaxing mellow sound I use it throughout the day for reminders to bring me back from the beyond that my busy life sends me The only thing I might change is volume of the bell The normal bell is too loud at my usual phone setting and the quiet bell too quiet                 Luv This App

I really like it I wish scheduling was more complete I would like to be able to ask it to sound the bell every two hours between 10am and midnight every day It seems I have to reset it every day or change the settings too often              Good app

I have been looking for an easytouse timer with a lovely chime for timed poses in my yoga classes and personal practice I use the insight timer for meditation and love it but this one is just right for quick nofuss set up I do wish I could save patterns as in the other app I would also like to be able to set it at 30 second intervals                 Perfect for yoga teachers

Great functionality BUT It would be really nice to have the option of changing the bell tone The bell sound in this app rings for a reaaaaallly long time which is highly intrusive for others if you are using this in an office environment The only option is to turn the sound way down but then you end up missing half the bells I like the bell sound in the lotus bud app but that app doesnt have this level of functionality           Good but intrusive to others

Thanks to Andrew whose fix now appears verbatim on the developers support page Five stars for Andrew none for Spotlight Six who couldnt even bother to respond to their customers Apparently they forgot to be mindful                 Thanks Andrew4549

I use this timer for stopping to rest my eyes from the computer screen as well as to meditate It is a simple app and as such wellsuited for the purpose of reminding one to be in the moment              Handy Mindfulness Reminder

I use some of your other apps and Im quite happy with them I want to use this Mindfulness Bell while I am working with Pandora providing music However the volume is extraordinarily low and that is with the normal bell not the quiet bell I would love two things 1 A volume control for the app as it runs in the background This will help people use your app in a variety of settings 2 More bell choices My inspiration for a mindfulness bell comes from retreat where we would pause during eating when our teacher rang the bell to check in with our presence I want to do that while I work Thanks and I hope you use this feedback to the greater good of your app development You have the structure of a really useful app here     I want to like this app

I use this with my Centering Prayer practice and it is very Helpful in setting the tone for my prayer period                 App for praying

A great app Fixed sound look at info on support for app Basically turn on sound go to settings notification center the app sound on              Fix sound

I greatly appreciate having Mindfulness Bell on my phone Its a wonderful app for timing meditation and because it can time many timesegments sequentially its perfect for smoothly performing a series of long yin yoga poses Thank you for Mindfulness Bell                 Perfect for mediators and yogis

Just downloaded this app and when I schedule an hourly bell it never makes a sound I can see the countdown and it lists the number of bells remaining yet it never sounds Not sure what I can do to make the app perform properly        App not sounding the bell

Thank you creators and developers May all beings benefit                 A must have

Can this be debugged or give me my money back     Thats right no bell ring

Dont buy unless you plan on keeping the app open at all times and not place it in the background     Background ring no longer works

Bell doesnt ring     Does not work

The bell goes off when Im on a call and thats a huge problem especially if its a business call           Chimes when on phone call

Rings once and thats it Does not work with ringer turned off Wanted to set for the day at one minute intervals and can only set 64 bells at a time     Does not work

This is great for people with busy lives The way that you can simply turn the phone to silent to silence the bell makes it so easy to adjust and the options make for a great experience with more mindfulness in your day                 Wonderful for Busy People

You have to start this app over every day it should just run in the background on its own        Should run on its own

The only thing I wish was if it could work even when the phone is locked But otherwise I use this everyday              Perfect

Helpful app Can use for various reminders I use it to help me remember to have good posture              Good App

This app would be perfect for me if it worked in the background Fix this and this app is 5 stars easily        Would be great if it worked in background mode

I love the concept but I want to have the option for a notification to pop up with a mantra that I can type out for myself I also want to be able to use a sound of my choice Also having to reset the bells every morning isnt preferable This app has a lot of potential and I use it semiregularly when I remember to reset bells           Display mantra and choose sound

I downloaded this app to remind myself of my daily affirmation Can you please enable this app to display my mantra which I could program in as a notification message when the bell goes off           Please add affirmation ability

Ok youve set up your life so you are living more spiritual you meditate send out good thoughts try to eat right and at the same time you live in the real world As you go into work you tell yourself that you WILL take a breath throughout the day to center yourself no big deal easy task You get into work and the day is off quick You answer the phone a client comes in you have to fill out some paperwork send an email off to get a brochure started Ill breathe in a minute Im calm in a minute I just gotta finish this your boss comes in to remind you the article is due in a couple hours You are starving you gulp down some lunch and you were going to center yourself at lunch thinking of the meeting you have after you turn in your project to your boss and on and on it goes till your day is over and you have not stopped once you think you have remained calm throughout the day but you are stressed That is where this app comes in It is amazing I use it everyday You set it to go off as often as you want for up to 24 hours The icon on your screen shows how many bells remain to chime which is fun It still runs even if you are doing other things with your device It is so unobtrusive that a coworker may be standing near and hear the bowl chime they pause a second you can see the look on their face like they are hearing things I say Thats just my reminder alarm and they go on not giving it a thought So this app is great if you are trying to remain zen throughout your busy day set it to chime as many times as you want think of a quick affirmation you like to use or a visualization or a sound a thought then use that throughout the day I am a pretty calm person and really didnt think this app would do much for me Boy was I surprised at how it truly does make you pause even for just a second In fact I use it at home too I set it to go off throughout the day to keep that little reminder to pause and be grateful for the moment So basically this app allows you to grab a second here and there throughout the day of being mindfulness It is like a quick meditation session Try it you will be surprised at how effective this simple little app is I love it                 I use this every day

I have successfully used this app to help me totally shift my pessimistic attitude to a more optimistic one It works great for randomly reminding you to do something such as a pebble meditation or put entries into a thought log if youre usingparticipating in cognitivebehavioral therapy The bell sound itself is beautiful and it has worked exactly as advertised for me                 Love It

Love the sound of the bell its perfect Would love to be able to save settings I use it for a meditation session in the morning and also set it to ring randomly throughout the day I hate having to reset the settings each time              Love the bell would love it more with settings

Or foreground for that matter I have to Manually ring the bell LOL What a joke I got robbed     It doesnt work in the background

Hearing this bell I am able to let go of all of my afflictions My heart I calm my sorrows have ended I am able to listen to my suffering and the suffering of others When understanding is born compassion is born                 Grateful for this App

I have the companys 2 other apps which work very well but this one doesnt work in the background And yes I did follow the suggestion from another user to go in Notifications to make sure the sound is on for the app Sadly if I could give this zero stars I would     I wasted my money

It rings too long so the bell sounds inauthentic and it needs a way to run 247 with set quiet times It would be a good free app but not enough functionality to pay for           Rings too long no auto setting

A simple app that does just what its designed to do and does it well                 Great for setting mindfulness reminders

Perfect to keep me going after Plum Village And free                 Love it

I have had this app for quite some time and really like it I use it a lot One wish if there could be an option instead of the bell to have a silent vibration as the reminder I really cant have the chimes go off at random times in the middle of a meeting but reminders to stay present during some of my meetings would be very helpful Thanks for considering it                 Only One Suggestion

Great app Helps me break away from the daily grind and refocus                 Use it every day

Good app would be better I didnt have to reset daily                 Useful

This app stinks     Not awesome

I am very hard of hearing and I cannot use this app because I cannot hear the bell I do not hear high pitched sounds so I miss it in this Mindfulness app The only bell choice is a high pitched sound that I do not hear On your other app Insight Timer you have bell choices I use Insight Timer successfully because I have a bell choice there which I can hear Please give us a bell choice in this app as well Thank you for your consideration     Need Bell Choice for HardofHearing

I like it the functionality of a random bell or a timed bell throughout my day is great to have It could be improved greatly if I were able to manage the settings in an easier way Set 16 random bells from 9 am to 9 pm everyday The user experience is odd in this regard I expect I would like a more simple way to set up a simple setting           I am still using this app

I need to be able to press the home button and have it run in the background like the app says it will but it doesnt work The timer runs but I want to hear the bells no matter what Im doing with my phoneexcept a phone call of course So if I want to read emails or send texts etc I can still hear the bells in the background Fix        Not what I wanted because

Sometimes doesnt run in background and has a tendency to ring in my ear when on the phone more often than seems to be coincidence But otherwise really awesome                 Great

It DOESNT ring in the background It only rings when youre iPhone is awake It doesnt even wake the phone to ring when notifications is enabled This is deceptive promotion on the developers part This could be a really nice app but it fails to deliver on what is implied in the writeup Very disappointing     Could be nice but

This app is the best I found at providing timed mindfulness chimes Sometimes I want more chimes than the program will allow And I sometimes would like there to be some sort of signal that the final bell is chiming But I am happy with the app              Does What I Need It To Do

I love this app BUTWhy must I go into the app every single day If I forget it doesnt start till the next day Just make it so you set it up once and thats it if you want to cancel it you can cancel it           Crazy setup

I think the bell tone is annoying not what I thought I was getting And of course there was no option to hear it before buying It would be better if you could change the tone but its not an option What a waste of a dollar     Unusable

June 2012 this works fine It chimes at intervals i set with either a loud or quiet bell It doesnt have a ton of features but does exactly what it claims to              Works fine

Needs work The main problem I have is the inability to set a bell interval that will ring forever You are forced to reset the bell at most every 24 hours Also only 1 bell sound that isnt that great           Its OK but

App works but no sound if ringer in silent only one bell sound opportunity to schedule start rime no menu no settings        Needs improvement
