Monk Mode

This is an excellent app, I really respect and am deeply grateful for the work that went into releasing this entirely free. It’s meditatively basic, distraction-free, just a timer and heart rate + mindfulness minutes tracking, which is everything I want, plus the icons are good-looking too. The one thing that would make this perfect for me is if I were able to set an open goal instead of being forced to pick a time limit, so I could utilize the tracking without limiting or planning how my meditation sessions will go.

I had to leave a review because I’m so grateful for this app, and I feel blessed because it was free. After I figured out that I needed to download the app directly from my Apple Watch, I was able to immediately start using it. The times are in increments of five, so I just set the time for a little longer than my planned session, and end it manually when I finish. I love that it monitors & reports my heart rate and meditation time to both the Apple Heath & Fitness apps. Thank you, thank you! 🙏🏾

I appreciate it app. It just runs a timer and sounds the bell (or gives haptic feedback if the bell is silenced) at the end of the meditation. The meditation is then saved to the health app/data, along with a heart rate reading. Having this on my watch as a complication encourages me to do some meditation when time allows. Apart from 1 minute, the meditation periods are in increments of 5 minutes. For the most part that works for me. Occasionally I would appreciate being able to set custom times.
