Love this app! One request. I love this application. The bells are beautiful and resonant. They even carry well over phone calls when I meditate with others. I like being able to set and save timer patterns that I reuse often. I think the user into face would be more intuitive if bells were timed from that last bell rather than the start time. I would really like to be able to order my saved timers. To get them in the order I want ; e. g. Length, I would have to recreate them.

So much better than standard alarm!. Great bowl sounds and it's a great touch that you can't depress the sound--nothing you do will cut it off impatiently. The only thing I wish was that it had some of the features the built in alarm does: snooze and the ability to set a standing alarm on chosen days of the week. Still, worth it.

Doesn't work on iPhone 6 Plus. I had this app on my earlier iPhones, and it worked well. But it hasn't worked on my iPhone 6 Plus. All chimes are just a horrible buzz.

Love it, right now. I must be meditating too much. I didn’t even notice the changes made to the app. Still love it. Easy to use. Nice sounds.

Good alternative to insight timer. I have been using insight timer for years, but in last year or so they have really cluttered up the app and it takes a long time to load and get to the timer. This cost 1.99, is simple yet incredibly flexible and has great acoustics. Love it so far

Fantastic meditation timer. I use this as a meditation timer and it’s terrific. The interface is easy to use and the design is simple and beautiful. The sounds of the various bowls, cymbals, gong, etc., are true to life and beautiful too. I love that I can program several intervals within each preset, and move the order of the presets around on the page. Out of the various meditation timers from the App Store that I’ve tried, this is the best.

Works most of the time. I have had a few times when the alarm never went off, so I find myself consistently using the iPhone default alarm as a backup. I like the variety of sounds, as well as the quality. They sound wonderful on my iPhone. I find it a peaceful way to wake up. I don't use it for meditation, but I do use it for stretching as a reminder of when to change positions. I think it's worth downloading even just for the sounds. I find the setup for changing the meditation timer a bit tedious and slightly annoying. When you go to edit it you have the options to edit when it starts playing, how many times it repeats, the interval time and the volume. Once you select one in order to edit and you select "save" it takes you to the main screen for THAT alarm. Then, you have to hit "save" again for a final time. Sometimes I've forgotten to select "save" that final time and I have to start all the way over. I wish that would change. I think it's a bit redundant to make me save my changes twice.

Wonderful. I use this for timing my meditation sits. I’ve used it for years, and love that I can set up different timers with different bells. I was sorry to see the change in the interface. I really dislike the red 😕. Luckily I meditate with my eyes closed so it doesn’t matter!

This app is WONDERFUL & I've owned it from THE BEGINNING!!!!. DON'T BELIVE ALL THE NAYSAYERS!!! I've owned this app since it's infancy and have loved it since day one!!! It is a wonderful meditation aid. It works beautifully to wake me up in the noting after a nights sleep - AND I HAVE NARCOLEPSY !!! (for those of you unformiliar with this ailment, in a nutshell narcolepsy this is: A condition characterized by frequent and uncontrollable periods of deep sleep... extreme tendency to fall asleep whenever in relaxing surroundings.) So if it wakes me up I don't know who these people are that wrote there complaints but they're just ridiculous! This is an OUTSTANDING APP AND A BARGAN AT ANY PRICE. I even gifted it for my mother and best friend just for a treat when I first bought it myself because I liked it so much!!! So please disregard the bogus one stars- this is great 

Simple, Easy to Use. I wanted a meditation timer that had a bell at the beginning and at the end and this allows me to set up both. I simply set the beginning bell for 5 seconds and set up the repeat bell for whatever duration I want, plus five seconds. Love the bell choices, and I love the wake-up chimes - nice start to the day. I don’t want music or guidance, I simply want to sit and meditate quietly. This app is perfect for me! Five Stars!!!

Q. My favorite app, A companion on my tao, The only thing i would add to it , the ability to change individual chimes , it would be nice to have a different chime for the last ring, thank you

Very nice to wake up to. I have been looking for an app to replace my broken Now & Zen alarm clock, and this app does that beautifully. The gentle ringing of the bowl-gongs are truly lovely, and I love the option of different bowls, gongs, and chimes. Also, I am ecstatic that I don't have to leave my device on all night, which seems to be necessary with a lot of similar gentle alarm clock apps. I couldn't be happier.

Best alarm clock. I love this little alarm clock! I've been waking up more easily since I started using it 6 months ago. My only wish is the ability to set multiple, recurring alarms like the iOS alarm clock. Also to make sure the alarm goes off if the phone is accidentally in silent mode (this might be an iOS issue).

Very grateful someone developed this app. I use it every day. It has a great set of options for how long each session is, how many chimes and at what intervals, and high quality bells and chimes recording. Couldn't ask for more. Thank you for developing this.

Simplistic Beauty and Usability. I’ve been using i-Qi for years, and have found that it’s one of the most flexible meditation timers on the store. I’ve found no other app that allows up to 24 hours of use; I set it all day long at times to remind me to breathe. The breadth of chimes and bowls, and clarity of sound is also rich and immersive. The alarm clock, and it’s golden timer option, permits a gentle and stirring opportunity to start the day without the jarring and sudden chimes of typical alarms. An intersection of simplicity, beauty, and usability. Thank you.

Works perfectly. Just turn on the sound on your phone.

Simple and elegant. Multi-year user here. No frills, takes meditation to heat in its design and use.

Strong Basic Addn. To App Collection, But Keep Your Wallet Out & Check the Receipt. The App functions with reasonably high quality basic sound, timer, clock, etc. I use it for meditation and to reinforce my Mindfulness Practice. I believe the write-up on the App was misleading in that you are forced to make an "in App purchase" to get the functionality we read to be already in the initial download. I was particularly frustrated bc I had already paid for full functionality in my initial download. When iTunes upgraded, I had to re-download and was charged a second time. Will let readers know if I get a refund, but otherwise, watch out!!! Don't get double-dipped or double-ripped. Seriously, I am sure they will correct any charging errors--otherwise it might be bad karma!! And the App works as promised. I would also like to see the creators of the App be more responsive to update requests. Besides continuous innovation and ever increasing functionality is the name of the game in mobile Apps.

Do not waste your money. The alarm does not work and the volume on the app hardly ever works

Best two bucks I've ever spent. This is just a great little app. I was looking to buy one of those expensive singing bowl clocks when I found this and decided to give it a try. The golden ratio alarm feels really relaxing in the morning. I love waking up to these sounds! My only complaint is that it is missing a few features. I wish there was a way to automatically reset the alarm, and you have to go into the app to turn off the alarm. Not a big deal just room for improvement. Overall I'm very happy with this app and it's really made my mornings a lot better.

Love it. This is a wonderful app, well put together. I love the golden ratio feature as well. I Use it as an alarm clock. There is no way I will go back to any regular alarm. The golden ratio alarm is the only way to wake up. And there are many beautiful sounds to choose from. And One can also set up a meditation alarm timer with this as well. Also, one can adjust the sound volume, as a percentage of the iPhone overall volume, which is really great since a too-loud volume can really jar the nerves when being woken up from a deep sleep. And at the same time this allows an incoming call to be a bit louder if needed.

Wow! Hooked my iPhone up to speakers—incredibly beautiful true-to- life sound💖. I was about to spend a couple hundred $ on a Zen alarm clock when I read about this app. To my ear sound quality when played through my speakers is 95% authentic! 🙏Send my gratitude to its seller, alphadock technologies GmbH🌷

It doesn't work. Don't buy it.. There are no sounds.

Wonderful sounds, but not of use as a wake-up alarm. I bought this app to replace my Zen alarm clock, which stopped working after a power outage. The app is easy to use, and I absolutely love the choices of sounds. It’s just what I wanted! However, there’s a fatal flaw for me: It won’t play the tones when the phone is plugged in. (After I get woken but by my backup alarm and unplug my phone, the tone immediately starts sounding.) So if you are one of the many people who leave your phone plugged in to recharge while you sleep, and also wish to use the phone as an alarm clock, this app isn’t going to work for you. V. disappointing, and a waste of my money.

Waste of money. Does nothing but sets chimes. I do not want noise while I meditate I want a tiny sound after a certain amount of time.

Love it...one little thing. I change my rating to 5 stars, you can set this little baby to ring three times at the end of 40 min cycle with 5 minute intervals. Bravo! I love this app, great choice of bells, it is wonderful to be able to set the bell at 5 minute intervals. I would absolutely love it, if at the end of a series of gongs it would gong two or three times to indicate the end of a 30, 40, 50, or 60 minute cycle. I much appreciate this beautiful app.

I like it!. I installed the i-Qi clock on my iPhone yesterday evening, set the alarm for this morning and it was great waking up to the chimes. I used the pre-defined Golden ratio for this morning wake up call. I have now created a new wake up sequence for tomorrow morning so we'll see how that works out. I was wondering if the chimes would wake me up or take me into a deep meditation. I would have preferred to remain in bed but the acoustic chimes did wake me up.

Excellent!. This is a terrific alarm clock for the morning, as well as the best meditation chimes app that I have seen and heard for the iPhone. The chimes and bowls sound remarkably realistic, so much so that you would never know it was a recording. The graphic design is also sleek, and the app itself is easy to navigate. In addition to my daily alarm, I use this app for my meditation: you can program custom chimes or bowls to ring at specific intervals to begin and end your sessions. Very thoughtful and useful. Money well-spent.

Does NOT work. I have had the old version of this app for 3+ years, and used it on a daily basis. Then the app stopped supporting the different free chime tones. So, I was excited to buy this new version and disappointed when it flat out did not work - alarm function failed on multiple tries - and meditation function offered no way to enter duration! I wrote the developers 4 days ago - no response.

Like so many iOS 11 updates, such a downgrade.. I would’ve given this five stars before the iOS 11 update. The new interface is ugly as hell and my list of chimes is virtually impossible to see. The old interface was so pleasing to look at with the parchment and the nice old style list of saved chimes on black where you could see exactly how many minutes and which bells. I’m completely mystified why developers can’t just leave a good thing alone and make it work with the new iOS at the back end as opposed to giving everything the ugly “latest“ Helvetica look.

Alarm Clock issues. I don't know what the other versions are like but this one is just ok. All the functions except the alarm are great. I set my alarm the night before and it hasn't gone off for 2 days now. I set the alarm just after the alarm was suppose go off to wake me up and it went off without a problem. I'm thinking there is some kind of issue with setting an alarm the night before? Sounds are fantastic-lots of options, and the app is designed very well. It would be nice if I could set different sounds for the warm-up and final chime for my meditation timer.

Used to be good. I agree with the other users, this app used to be good. It has failed on me two or three times which is totally unacceptable for an alarm clock. It was not a matter of setting a.m. or p.m. either, but some issue with the app, because it did not do this before the update. I now set a back up alarm with my regular alarm. Developers should get on this ASAP The chimes are lovely, and the meditation layout and set up is the best, I do not like the integration of native Apple alarm clock set up, Too many steps to take in order to create an alarm. The addition of a black background is nice, I wish that was a future you could toggle on or off. There is still hope for this app!

A Lovely, Trick Little App. This little app has high quality and varied sounds, and nice programmability. Having been a meditator for a loooongg time, as well as a dallyer in things subtle, I also appreciate the Golden Ratio integration. Cool things about this app... 1. No fiddling with figuring out what music you might like in morning or how to return to awareness via an iPod alarm 2. The absolutely jarring iPhone-iPod alarm sound is instead transmuted into something VERY pleasant which actually makes you body interested in waking up 3. The sounds are customizable so you can pick which ones literally resonate with you. 4. It's also unusually useful for creative types to put yourself into a meditative state - some would call it a self-hypnotic state - in which you don't have to worry about bringing yourself back to normal consciousness. This is a sweet app to bring yourself back to your normal awareness. And, no, I don't know these people. It's that I was shopping for an app like this and serendipity brought me to this new release.

What a joy!. Perhaps I should have been born to a life of privileged, solitary reflection. But since I instead inhabit a world of harried schedules and early morning dashes out the door, the i-Qi clock has brought wondrous, joyful ease to my mornings. I wake gently and my day proceeds with so much more peace and focus. Beautiful interface. Stunning chime sound options. (The Airplay option is awesome!)

Great. Easy to use. Reliable. Pleasure to wake to

Great meditation timer. In addition to being a nice clock app, I especially like being able to set up meditation timers with multiple chimes at times designated by me. Being able to set up a 30 min timer starting with three chimes, followed by a single chime at 15 min and a single chime at 30 min is great! It allows me a lot of flexibility in my meditation times! Great app and one I've recommended to my whole sangha.

Almost perfect.. I wish there was a way to change the order of the intervals after I make a set of timers. Also when I name the timer my keyboard hides what I’m trying to type making it difficult to see what I’m typing.

All you need. You don’t need fancy features, or ridiculous In app purchases or subscriptions. You need to simply set the time and that what this app does. Nice selection of sounds, and I love that you can set many different lengths of meditation time, perfect if you find you don’t have as much time to meditate as you would like. Nice looking interface. LOVE that it is a simple inexpensive one time purchase. Recommended.

Get it!. Sounds amazing!! Chimes are rich and authentic... very peaceful way to rise. However, alarm must be reset after every use. It would be nice if i-Qi had the same alarm setting capabilities as that which comes included with the iPhone i.e. multiple, recurring time settings. An update would be much appreciated. Other than that, this app is well worth the purchase!

Great when it’s not crashing :(. Developers need to get on top of bug fixing. App has been crashing and shutting off every 10 or so uses and I send in the bug report and nothing happens... for at least a year now. Could be a great app if the developers fix the bugs. It’s well thought out and easy to use.

Has Much Potential. I practice a more meditative form of yoga, Yin, where the poses are often held for 3-5 minutes. I was greatly looking forward to not having to set a timer at the start of each pose, but rather have a set grouping of timers to go off with the nice soothing sounds offered in this app. Sadly, because there is no way to control the order of the chimes within a timer and they just order themselves by length this was a wasted $2 purchase for me. The sound choices are fantastic for meditation and yoga. I really appreciate being able to set the sound level of them as well. There are a lot of good things going on in this app. PLEASE GIVE US CONTROL OVER THE ORDERING OF THE CHIMES WITHIN A TIMER and I'd be giving this 5 stars in a heartbeat!

Great. Love it

Easy with variety. I've used this app for several years and have really enjoyed it. I like having the different and realistic bowl sounds and the ability to have a start and an end bell. I use it every day for meditation, for timing sequences in yoga and for keeping me focused and mindful with study time. Thanks for a great app.

Extremely practical. So I can focus on what matters. Allows me to set interval chimes as I wish. Love it and recommend it.

Love this - quality. Love this, good quality, many options. Does it silence our interruptions (text/call/email/notifications)?? Can this be an option put into settings? It's jarring to get phone calls during quiet time :-) I noticed I think I can put on vibrate & the sound from this app only comes thru - which is excellent.

Needs a reoccurring alarm. This app does what it says. However, there are definitely some conveniences left out that are a must. This app needs to have a reoccurring alarm function that is programable by the day. For example, I should be able to set Monday through Friday for my early am wake up... However, I want to sleep in on the weekend, so I should be able to set a layer time for every weekend. Once addressed, I will give it a 5 star.

The one I use daily, working IOS 10!. I've downloaded several meditation apps over the last few years. This is the one I use daily. It's very simple yet versatile. I love the ability to design my own meditation timer with a variety of chimes, taps on wood blocks, etc. I have several different meditation timers built depending on my goal / time. Excellent app.

So happy to get it back!!!. I was so disappointed (and deeply annoyed as well) that such a beautifully designed app disappeared in iOS 10. Just got my iPhone 7 activated and was pleased to find I qi working again. I use it while traveling. Beautiful tones and broad capability to design meditation routines. Truly one of the great apps for those looking for something like this.

Can't do 108 bows. I wanted to use this app for doing my daily 108 bows (a traditional Korean practice), buy the timer only repeats a maximum of 99 times. Frustrating. So this app isn't useful for me. It's lovely otherwise.

Favorite daily apps. The clock paired with the I-Qi timer (please update to the new iOS!) are my favorite apps, my favorite reason for having a smart phone! I use it every day to wake up, and for my yoga and meditation practice. It has directly enhanced my daily home practice. Thank you!

Wonderful. This is a wonderful app, perfect as a peaceful wake-up alarm or as a meditation timer. Works perfectly and is easily set up however you would like it to work. To the developers, thank you, I am very grateful.

iOS 10 woes. Since upgrading (operating system and app) it is very slow to open and uses much too much battery (70% according to the iPhone settings).

A Lifesaver. My Zen Clock malfunctioned and I've been waking up cranky and drowsy ever since. I tried the other slow alarm clock apps out and they simply didn't wake me up, or the sound quality of the files they used irritated the audiofile inside me. i-Qi meant to be the intermediary between getting my Zen Clock fixed but found that the app was simply better than the real thing! The design, animation, intuitiveness, and most importantly the quailty of the sound files i-Qi uses sets this app as simply the best and most used app I use. The resonance in the sound files is AMAZING! Exactly capturing the sound bowl's essence. I wake up fresh and happy. I'll say it. "i-Qi - better than the Zen Clock."

Nice. Works great!! Especially when you find what chime and volume is best for you! Like others have said would be good to be able to set it up for the whole week! Solid app!!

Trusted timer authentic sounds. I have used this app for 8 years, easy, uncluttered, awesome for yoga sequencing. 🙏

Authentic sounds, excellent design, perfect features. This is the best meditation timer I’ve found. I use it to bring myself out of meditation. The cymbals are an authentic rendition indistinguishable from the real thing. The app is simple, uncluttered yet has every feature I want. An exceptional app. Thank you

Love it!!!!!!!!! Soooo good. I used to live in an ashram with daily meditation and someone playing chimes like this for the end of meditation and this ap has taken me right back there! I absolutely love it! I would like it if the ap could override the mute button tho... Because as an alarm, I cant use it because I need to sleep w my phone on mute so that phonecalls or msgs don't wake me up

Perfect. Great app. Simple and all you need. Very customisable to what ever you are doing. Would be great if it linked into Health App!!

Woah. I was eating ham. Then I downloaded this app and now I'm eating bacon.

Authentic, high-quality chimes. Being an experienced meditator, I found this app to be very easy to use while producing high quality, authentic chimes. I never meditate without it.

Great zen clock and meditation timer. My only issue (and the only reason it doesn’t get 5 stars) is that selecting the bell sound for the meditation timer is very buggy.

Thanks for developing this App !. Beautiful, works perfectly

Dead with iOS 10. Was an app I used frequently. Will not run under iOS 10.

Great App. Simple but effective, I use it every day

Just right. Simple app and very easy to use. Love the singing bowl sounds they are quite pure and don’t disturb my meditation. This app is all I need to keep me on track during my meditations so that I don’t worry about the time.

simply genius!. lovely sounds clever alarm clear interface works out of app and phone on silence what more can I ask for?!

Nice alarm function. I use this app for it's alarm function and it's great. All it needs is a recurring alarm function and the ability to set select the days of the week the alarm goes off and it would be perfect. I did try the Peace Alarm app and it was terribly unreliable.

yoga timer- poor. I did love this app. But lately just problems with it. No longer sounding the chimes. Not being updated or maintained anymore.

Great app. Love this app. Use it everyday for a reliable, gentle wake up. Love that when it is turned off it doesn't cut the sound, it allows the sound to finish gently

Not worth it.. I downloaded this and the chimes/sounds stopped working after 2 days. I restarted my phone, the chimes started working again, but only the first time I used the timer. The second time I set it, the sounds didn't go off. I slept in twice because I was counting on this alarm to wake me up. NOT worth it.

Brilliant.. Love it.

the i-Qi clock is a gem in a sea of apps. The sound quality is fantastic. Integrating a golden ratio interval into the wake-up alarm phase is a brilliant idea. The alarm clock and meditation timers are the most valuable things that an ipod touch/iphone gadget can do for me. This gizmo will transition you gently and effectively from sleep to waking! Superb app with exquisite aesthetics!

Wonderful. Love it!

Didn't wake me up!. This app stops working sporadically. Not something I'd rely on.

Time is of the essence. Been waking up to this wonderful alarm for many months ! Start the day on the right "note" .......

Peaceful mornings. Thanks for creating this app! It has changed my mornings and has resulted in happier days overall. I'm sharing it and recommending it to friends.

Love this clock. Tonal quality is very nice & I think it's a great way to arise.

Wonderfully soothing. I use the clock every morning as my primary alarm. It's a lovely gentle way to be roused out of sleep using the golden ratio. The sound quality is good with most of the bowls but gong is very distorted on my iPhone 3G. The timer is great and you can meditate without thinking about the time. I love this app!

I use it every day.. Great sounds! A meditation must-have.

Simple, clean, beautiful. Provides me exactly what I need to support my mindfulness practices. Care and attention in the design makes for an effortless experience in setup and use.

Just purchased. It looks great so far. Thank you for making it compatible with iphoneX + generation. Please make an option to activate more than one alarm (like it is with apple’s standard alarm). Thank you 🙏🏻

Excellent!. This app does exactly what is announced. Would love to have more choices of ringer sounds. Namasté

Bowl singing. This App is amazing ! Best alarm clock AND best meditation app ever !

Excellent. Works well. Chime sounds amazingly clear.

Excellent meditation support. Excellent for interval timing during meditation; reminder to focus, or division of intention setting, meta and breathing, for example. However, using the meditation tool seems to interrupt a set alarm, and alarm seems to have to be reset for each use. Lovely sound options and quality.

My favourite meditation app. I’ve been using this meditation app for years now. After trying out a few different apps, this is my favorite. The strength of it lies in its simplicity. It’s easy to set up and use. The sound of the various chimes and bowls is great too. I use it every day.

Best timer ever!. I had to write this review to think the application author. I use this timer every day and I thoroughly enjoy it. I encourage anyone who's looking for a good clean the meditation timer to use this one.

The best alarm clock I've purchased.. This simple idea has taken away all angst in the morning. I'm absolutely shocked by its effective gentleness. I would recommend this phone to anyone.

Love it!. Intuitive & simple. I use this lovely app for meditation & alarm. Easy to program great sound nice features. The developer keeps proving it

Lovely, easy, versatile. The tones provided are just perfect because the whole sound is provided until it goes into silence. That is different from other meditation apps where the tones are cut off abruptly or are not soothing to the ear. It is easy to set up a variety of meditations using different tones. A very nice app that is well worth the money.

If you don't mind missing work... Then buy this app. I used to love it, perfect way to wake up every morning, but with the update it hardly works. I have missed work 3 times now because of this broken app and have had enough. Costs way more than $1.99, it's cost me over $100 in lost wages. Uninstalled this morning. Please fix.

Always faithful for me. Unfortunately, other users have experience problems with this app; however, it has worked for me every single time and I love it! It is more enjoyable to wake up to the sounds of this alarm clock!

Need an additional feature.. Hello I just now bought the app. Can you please add the feature to schedule multiple alarms. Thanks Kabira

Beautiful but broken. Edit: the new version of the app crashes after asking you to select the theme (I selected classic). Then it won't restart at all. Until they fix this it's one star. --- First off its a beautiful app. Definitely the best looking and sounding meditation timer. I also like that it is simply a timer, not packed with other distracting features. The point is to meditate not to play with dozens of features. That said, I wish they would add in app volume control. Using the device volume buttons seems to be inconsistent. Sometimes it's set loud and plays soft, vice versa. Just add a volume slider in the app and all confusion will be erased.

Love it - what a fabulous way to wake up!. This is a fabulous app -- beautiful sounds, and I love how you can create your own alarms. No more waking up to normal, jarring alarms!

Best Meditation Timer!. I've played with 10+ meditation timers for iOS and I always come back to this app. Why? • many chime choices • sounds sound clear • when having a sound repeat in a few second intervals, the sounds overlap instead of cut off, sounding more natural and less jarring • being able to set multiple chimes • ease and simplicity of use • good app aesthetics • the golden ratio wake up alarm is so pleasant to wake to Don't waste time and money like I have on other meditation timer apps. They pale in comparison.

'Update' = What the Hell Happened??. I concur with the other reviews in that the recent update destroyed what was an excellent application. Meditation alarm, not dependable to chime. Alarm, similarly. I accept the possibility of operator error, again, specific to this update. However, I trust that these major performance or usability issues will be addressed. 2 stars for past enjoyment and future opportunism for the return to form.

Just great!. I've been using this app to wake me gently and reliably every weekday morning for the last year. Thanks for making this app!

Meditation. Now my work starts to be my meditation! I was searching for this kind of app for ages! Now I can work in intervals breaked by excellent gong sound. 100 stars from me to you! Thanx!

The app I didn't know I needed!. Fantastic app! No need for snooze with the progressive alarm feature. That's the point! Hope the next update includes saving multiple alarms and daily alarms.

Great app for meditation but consume too much battery. Both meditation and alarm modes are great and very useful, definitely the best meditation timer I've ever used. The only down side is that it consumes too much battery on alarm mode. Usually 25-40% of battery is gone when I wake up in the morning. If this battery issue can be fixed, then it would be the perfect app!

I use it every day. Perfect meditation timer with great selection of sounds. Flexible. Easy to use as alarm clock or session timer

Great to have it back. This last update by Apple took this program a while to catch up with. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, they say and it was true here. Very much missed the clarity of these sounds and the smart design. Really didn't realize how much I appreciate this program. It is truly fantastic.

Beautiful alarm. The bowl, bell, and gong tones are very beautiful, and the graphic design feels professional and sophisticated. But I CANNOT believe this has not been updated to include a repeat alarm function, despite repeated urgings by reviewers. Still, the alarm tones NEARLY justify downloading the app.

Beautiful redesign. My favorite timer now has a sleek new icon and interface. Turning alarms on and off on the clock face is a neet new feature. My favorite feature is being able to set multiple consecutive timers at different time increments.

Alarm doesn't work. Very disappointed Bot for alarm function and have set every night since purchase and it has yet to go off! Chime timer works but needed the alarm. Not happy aggravating to say the least.

Great alarm (?!). For years I have looked for a gentle alarm like this. The sound and options are wonderful. For those who complain that the alarm doesn't work. This seems to happen when there are too many apps active. When you end your day, close out everything but I Q. When you set the alarrm, tap a bowl to see if it rings. It may sound complex, but the steps are simple. Hopefully 1.1.4 will fix the bug. This one is worth a little extra time. r

What a joy!. Perhaps I should have been born to a life of privileged, solitary reflection. But since I instead inhabit a world of harried schedules and early morning dashes out the door, the i-Qi clock has brought wondrous, joyful ease to my mornings. I wake gently and my day proceeds with so much more peace and focus. Beautiful interface. Stunning chime sound options. (The Airplay option is awesome!)

Nice. I love this app and I wake up to the Golden Ratio everyday. However, after I updated my phone to 7.0 the bottom 2/3 of the volume slider is gone. This makes it a real pain to change the volume. Please address and this is easily a 5-star app!

Battery drain. This app has lovely sounds. It is unfortunate that the alarm needs to be set every night. Most unfortunate, though is that the app severely drains the battery of my phone. I had to delete this app and I feel I wasted my money.

Excellent!. After fixing background functionality, this app is once again THE app I use for timing thing and time awareness.

Broken after update. Unnecessary cosmetic update completely broke the functionality of what used to be my favorite app. Alarm fails to go off, meditation timer can turn a 20 minute meditation into an infinite one. This was a beautiful, simple and elegant app that now simply fails to perform its core function. Very disappointed.

One hand clapping!. For those who wish to free themselves from clinging to the clock while practicing. A delightful, useful app with no flaws that I can see. Thank you!!!

Gentle wake up, luv it!. I've used the alarm clock for many months. Only twice it didn't wake me. Very clear sound and very easy to use, worth the purchase. Now I'm hoping for more selection of preset wake up bowls since I'm not musically inclined to develop my own.

Meh. It worked okay for a while but when I tried to use it last night, it didn't start properly this morning. If I can get it to work again it deserves a better rating. But failing to wake me and then giving a single gong when I touched the start up screen after waking up later than the set time, well, meh.....

Much less groggy because of this.. I like the fact that you can set the initial volume. I wake up much less groggy because of this alarm clock. It's like my cup of coffee.

The app quickly stopped working. The graphics are beautiful and the sounds were clear and authentic. I woke one morning to the alarm and really did come out of sleep alert and calm. Then, within one week for the free meditation timer and 3 days for the clock, ALL THE SOUND STOPPED FROM THE APPS. So, now they do not work at all. I encourage you to find a different app that serves the same purpose. The beautiful sounds support to meditation and waking, but unfortunately only if the app works.

Delightful. So nice! The best way to wake up I've ever encountered. The quality of the chimes' sound is magnificent. Thank you so much for creating such an intuitive and beautiful app!

Facilitator. I love this app because it replaces my facilitator tool that rings 3 chimes with a wooden stick to get the attention of the room. I can select a few tones from the list and tap the screen to get the tone. The tone has a long natural sound that tapers off as if you rang a chime in the room.

It's pretty good. I like the sound of the bowls, very realistic. Waking up to them is lovely. However I wish that I could set more then one alarm and set them to repeat as specified. Setting different slants through the day and again before bed is kind of annoying.

Sitting meditation companion. This app has been my sitting companion since It first came out. Love the variety of bells and the ease of setting different sessions. Thank you for a wonderful help to my zen sitting. sgb

Wow!. I use bowls and chimes to begin and end sections of classes and meditations. Now I don't have to lug them or worry about storing them. The clarity is amazing and I love the freedom to configure bowl sounds for alarms, etc.. Thank you for expanding the world of my iPhone!

Love it!. Excellent timer/alarm. Use it for both, love the choices of sounds. Worth it all the way!

Perfect Pitch. I don't know how they do it but the tonal quality sounds EXACTLY like a brass bowl and sustains just like a real brass bowl. Great app and I use it for morning wake up, meditation and even to time speakers at meetings. I highly recommend.

The best for Meditation & alarms. I've loved this for a few years, using it to meditate, to wake up gently (the "golden ratio" alarm setting is such an effective but gentle way to wake up), and to set multi alarms for tasks like stirring oatmeal every 3 minutes over a 30 minute span. The new update is tremendous and increases the user-friendliness ten-fold. THANK YOU Peter Hess!

Best app!. I set my times, and it gives me all the options I want for bells. This is my favorite app for meditation. I don't need guided, I don't want social media sharing. This is my favorite app for meditation and I checked every day for an update to the iOS 10 crash. Thank you!!!

Does exactly what I need. This program functions perfectly for what I need. I wanted a chime at intervals, and one singular sample would have sufficed. However, I particularly like 5 of the sounds offered and this even allows you to set up a schedule of alternating chimes. Simple, effective. Love it.

Used to love this. I used to love this app. It was my alarm clock, meditation timer, nap timer, etc. It is beautiful to look at and the chimes are soulful. Now the meditation timer and alarm are unreliable. I missed work this morning!!! Please fix it! I still have hope.

Peaceful. Waking up to this alarm is a pleasure, as it wakes you gradually, rather than jolting you awake like traditional alarms. I also use the timer for my morning and evening meditations, yoga, and reiki practices using the different bowls and chimes. This app very much enriches those practices in a harmonious way. I'm glad to have found it.

Not very intuitive. It seems as if this would be much more useful app if it were more intuitive to program the clocks. How to get a simple progression of bells isnt as eaasy as it seems. "Repeat twice" actually gives you three bells, and the order of the periods change when you alter them even in the slightest.

Was excellent, now useless. What was once a very good timer/alarm/clock is now useless. It fails in the middle of my meditation, without explanation or warning. For more than a year it was flawless...then, after the "update," it is no good at all. It used to be much more aesthetically pleasing, too. What a shame. How do we get our money back?

No sound. None of the sounds are working. iOS 4.3.2. They were working fine about a week ago. No clock, meditation timer, etc... This has been a really solid app until this.

Love the Gentle Waking. Great alarm. Like the progressive alarm. Works in the background, on silent/vibrate and when locked! Only desire would be for it to rotate so that I could leave clock up while phone is on it's side.

Meh. Ok when it works.. This alarm is not as good as the native iPhone app in terms of customization, nor is it good for daily use. You have to set it up everyday to do so, which is annoying. Moreover, the alarm only works about half the time! This was a waste of money for me, which I hate about developers who create crappy products that you pay for and can't get refunded.

Very Poor Alarm Clock. Perhaps the acoustics are indeed fabulous as reported but I cannot get a preview of them nor can I get an alarm to ring. It's difficult to use and absolutely no instructions. Email to support has gone unanswered. There is no snooze option for the alarm and it's incredibly difficult to understand how to use it. Hard to believe you not only can you not snooze you cannot set more than one alarm - period. Waste of money but more importantly - waste of time and effort!

pretty bells. not working with watch yet. for use with the watch timers need to be set on the phone. so I set a wake-up and a 30 minute timer on the phone and went to the watch to start 30 minute meditation. 'my timer' icon appears on the watch but nothing happens when it it pressed. patience.
