Zen Timer keeps meditation practice focused on a timer rather than a catalog of guided sessions. Users set a duration with a circular control, take a short settling countdown, and begin when a singing bowl sounds. A closing chime marks the end of the sit. Sessions can be saved to a calendar heatmap and daily streak, or tracking can be turned off for a timer-only experience. The developer describes it as free, without ads or pop-ups, and supported by donations. The sound and interval format work for practices such as zazen, breathwork, or quiet mindfulness, but the app does not provide instruction or guided meditation content. It is best suited to people who already know what practice they want and prefer a simple start-and-finish signal.
