Pros and cons of Mindfulness Bell app for iPhone and iPad
Mindfulness Bell app good for
Very simple, nice sound. Would be even better if one could have the last bell ring differently, so one can know that the meditation is over without checking time or counting
This is a simple and beautiful app to keep you mindful through the day. However, it lacks a vibration mode for these occasions when it is not convenient to be brought back to the present moment by a loud bell, such as professional meetings.
I really love this. My spiritual tradition asks for frequent reminders of a lesson idea through out the day. I have the timer set to ring every 10 minutes. I can have it set on the quiet ring so it does not disturb others. It is perfect for me. I had tried others that just didnt do what I wanted. This one is so simple it is beautiful!
Set the number of bells you want and the end time, and it will chime at random intervals. Choose between normal or quiet. Stays running in the background. Perfect app that does exactly what I was looking for; no more, no less.
Great app that I use at the office to remind me to be present throughout my day. Easy to use and has all the features I need.
Does just what it says - would like different bells to select from. Airplay support would be sweet.
Edited: Ive noticed that the bell just doesnt play - even when the app is in the foreground. It seems to randomly not work

This app does what it says. Ive had problems with it in the past but on an iphone6 with ios10 its working just fine.
Some bad moments
I thought this app was going to chime at set or random intervals everyday between say 7am and 10pm. Instead I have to start it every time I want to use it. Its more like a meditation app in that way - Ive got one of those from the same developer, so having this app is somewhat redundant. Id like to see this app be more useful in day to day living, so that throughout my day I am reminded to be mindful. The app should be always running sort of like an alarm. Basically, I want to set it up and forget about it, unless I want to change the settings. I hope these concerns are addressed in an update.
This does not work on my 4s iphone
no instructions, very frustrating app, totally not mindfulnesss
Tried to use this but the bells didnt chime off. Id set it and check later, and the countdown would indicate that several bells had rung; but I hadnt heard any.
It was working perfectly but after an update, the random bell function doesnt work!!!
I bought this yesterday, excited to have it sound every hour for a quick mindfulness break. I kept thinking I missed it or it was so soft I couldnt hear it. I checked all settings. Sound on and up. Watched it count down to bell and heard nothing.
i love this app--when it works. it has stopped working with the latest iOs 10. i can program it but it doesnt ring and it doesnt display the bells left. it will think it is ringing and count them down. i have deleted the app and reloaded after turning my phone off and on. frustrating!!!!
