Insight Timer–Meditate & Sleep - Latest Quality Issues

Great app, although I wish there were fewer taps to exit basic timer
Premium user here. As the title says, this is a fantastic app. I've probably been using it for five years, primarily for just the basic timer for meditation and occasionally other content. There is a lot of valuable content and classes for all different types of meditators, and those looking for inspiration. From a quality of life perspective as primarily a user of the basic timer, I have noticed in one of the recent updates though, there are quite a few taps just to exit a timer once you're completed meditating. It used to be one tap (or perhaps 2) to exit the timer, and now it is typically three and occasionally five. This feels excessive and conversion, I'd like to see it back down to 1 or 2 taps again. Hopefully the developers are reading this and consider this change.

the free version is good and disappointing. The really interesting content is paid.

too many things on plus, otherwise excellent

Terrible search
This used to be a great app, a wonderful library. Now, like so many others, it's on a subscription basis, bleeding your wallet to death one day at a time. OK, everybody needs a business model. But it's clogged with junk, and its search function is unforgivably bad. Want to learn about the Tao, a really common term and one which I know has courses in their library? Too bad! Unless you know the name of the teacher and search for it, your search results will get a billion junky things, poorly recorded, none of which have Tao in the title. I'm working in French, but happy to find English stuff too—sometimes your search results are in one language, sometimes in another, sometimes a mix! Garbage. I want my subscription money back.

Great app with room for improvement
I've been using this app since 2019 and it is hands-down the best one that I have found so far. However, I recently bought a new phone and had to re-download the app and have found it extremely difficult and challenging to login with my old account information. For example, when I open the app, I did not see any option to login with an existing account. It seems geared toward forcing people to sign up for a new account and as you go through each step of the process, there is no way to go back or to choose an option other than giving them more information. Upon opening the app on my new phone, it erased my consecutive days to zero which was pretty disappointing. It would also be nice to be able to disable the random quotes when I open the app. It would also be very helpful to stop being asked if I want to receive notifications or add a widget to the home screen of my phone. And lastly, it would be nice if you could make the numbers larger for the volume level on the timer. Theyre very hard to see. It's also confusing on changing intervals and adding bells in the presets.

Mostly Good, But…
App constantly pesters me to allow notifications, install a widget to my Home Screen, and tell it how I'm feeling. Instead of 1 tap when I finish a session it's takes 3, and I'm constantly having to remember not to click the big slider at the bottom to share my feelings. Give me the option to say No once and then STOP asking.

useful and effective app for meditating, but with too many frills and continuous proposals that do not interest me, I would look for something simpler, without daily challenges or proposals to create a community or download gadgets, but for now it is the one I feel best with.

Very good in general but my biggest complaint is the streak counting widget. The smallest size is 2x3 which is very unwieldy. Compare that to Duolingo's equivalent widget which is 1x2.

This app used to be my favorite because of its simplicity. Now it's flooded with pushes to subscribe and services and features I didn't need or want. Even the one feature I used it for, a TIMER, is difficult to access on the app and begs me for money to *unlock all features*. Ugh. A perfectly good app ruined by becoming a useless cash grab.
