I like it! I've been thinking about expanding a platform for decentralized crowdfunding.
Maybe some chill music will be cool as background too
Yes I agree here as well.

Is the primary goal to have a long session? If so, maybe have that displayed somewhere to incentivize a longer meditation. Great work. π
Just used it and have a good initial impression. Literally put the first thing that popped into my mind, which in this case was very random but I can see other moments of inflection where something important, a detail, flash thought that can be impactful later.. the highlight is the simplicity, speed and sleek design for me. πgreat start! Installed on home screen btw
Love this idea. A meditation app that encourages less screen time is very on-brand for nostr & bitcoin.
Reposted β keep building π
The text below the timer changes to quickly for a calming experience imho. Consider giving it more time to display and not changing it as harsh. Maybe slowly fadinh in and out π
Love this idea. Most apps try to keep us scrolling, but this one flips the game it trains your mind to pause, think, and disconnect intentionally.
A meditation tool designed for bitcoiners and problem-solvers feels surprisingly natural.
If this becomes a Nostr-native experience, it could be powerful.
Less noise, more clarity!
Thanks! Any concrete idea how nostr could help?
Thanks! Any feedback on changes or features?

Not necessarily. I think the more your mind is buzzing the more you will need to write down ideas π‘
Where does the music come from? Canβt a user start their own music app? This is a tough one to get right I think
πͺπ
Thanks! But how does it fit to this app?
If you can help me to value my time better, Iβll pay, thatβs for sure
Raising the bar, ie cost, of oneβs attention is a great place to work on
More feedback I will add, is at least for me was a little confused what the purpose of it was and how to use it at first, but it is a cool app. Could quite easily make this a Nostr app, and you could share your silent thoughts whith thr community as well as publish the link in a note to share with others.
I could probably implement that quite easily, I am sure you could probably as well.
I do like this idea very much, people are distracting themselves far too much with technology to ever have real uninterrupted thoughts.
Would be cool, if it was an app on your phone, that could track if the screen is really turned off. It could then count the off screen time and send you sats for hours without screen. Similar to
@RUNSTR sending sats for steps.
Interesting ideas π‘ I need to think about it more. I donβt have a plan to charge for the app.
Yeah,
A meditation tool built for bitcoiners and problem-solvers actually makes sense: pause, capture your first clear thought, then disconnect intentionally.
If this becomes Nostr-native, it could be powerful:
key-based identity, no accounts
signed βproof-of-offlineβ sessions
zaps that reward restraint, not scrolling
Less noise, more clarity. This feels like mental self-custody!
Thatβs cool, but where does the money come from? Iβm worried about abuse from bots
What confused you? How can I make it less confusing?
Optional publishing to Nostr could work π€
I see β¦ donβt really know how runstr is funded. I think they have a daily reward pool limit and get donations.
Oh true didn't think about that, I was imagining some chill nature related like those relaxing vids, nature sounds, waterfalls, birds, etc.
Maybe some non copyright track? Just very low at start and with an option for the user to stop
Small text and not a lot of info on the website about it, I got it after a second, and the app worked quite well.
Keep up the great work fren! Thanks for the β‘
Proof of offline is niceπ‘
Maybe lean even harder into simplicity β fewer options, more intention.
Great, thank you!
I think its a great idea and i would give it a try. I do meditate.
Great idea, thanks!
Happy to help ππ
Did you notice any options that could be removed?
-Easy to add, night mode for when an idea might hit at night
- Maybe a voice record clip of 30-60 sec max to get a longer thought in(the option/icon)
- cycle the text/prompts below the timer slower, and in order as in βheres whats going to happenβ, ie it says to turn off phone first
- variety on the text below timer, such as breathe, seek whats important to you, tao phrases etc to induce meditation
Excellent app straight to the point. Best part it is WebApp meaning it can be installed on any device desktop or mobile.
View quoted note βThe logic is sound, but needs some improvement on fonts and a graphic upon return.
Thanks, thatβs not my specialty. Iβll try find someone to do a design for me
Nice feedback, thanks!
impressive idea.
Here are my thoughts:
It would be great for an app that will silent in the background all apps by going into this app.
It stops everything except for this app.
You may ask but would not be easy to simply turn off your phone?
The idea is to remove distraction when you need time to focus. Eg meditate, creative endeavour, walk or nature time, etc. It counts how many hours you are off your screen (which tracks your screen time on/off).
Allows to schedule the hibernation of the app. So if you schedule to meditate at 7:00 then all apps except this one will be inaccessible including internet. Emergency dial is the only available and this app. It sends a reminder that in 1 min or 30 seconds the hibernation starts. User can choose to continue or not. If no response then it means to go on hibernation.
Make it difficult (two or 3 clicks) to disable the app when you started the hibernation (focus time) so it encourages people to carry on with the hibernation. It's a start and got more if you want βΊοΈ hope that helps π«π
Maybe you donβt have to, but rather there is some kind of future profit share for vakue driven behaviour
Maybe you could sponsor a friend to meditate and they get paid for using the app
Thanks! I donβt think itβs possible as that would need operating system level permissions on your phone. But nice ideas π‘
I've had great results with an app called OneSec. It adds a layer of 'conscious friction' by making you meditate for a few seconds before an app opens, asking: 'Do you really want to do this?' Itβs a game-changer for impulse control.
βTo take this further, we could look at:
βHard-Stop Pomodoros: An add-on that doesn't just suggest a rest, but requires a meditation session to 'unlock' the next work sprint.
βSocial Accountability: Adding gamified elements like leaderboards or daily check-in streaks to make the habit stick through healthy competition. π

no worries ty for the generous sats πβΊοΈ
but if you change your mind, at least you have this as an idea π
Easy... A notifification that says: Remember your health first Easy... A notification that says: Remember your health first, turn off the screen for you
Bad idea think more useful & not redundant useless things like this.
This helps me build effectively. Why do you think itβs a bad idea?
Thanks for the ideas! π‘
Social accountability could work well with Nostr, maybe
Maybe a friend could fund your own meditations π€
Did you get a zap? I got no confirmation when paying your wallet
Change your lightning address here on Nostr from Speed app to
@Blitz Wallet Excellent idea. We need to disconnect from the digital world from time to time for good mental health.
Thanks! Any specific feedback or suggestions?
Thanks! Let me know if you do and have any feedback!
An option for nature sounds and relaxing music would be cool.
Cool! This idea was suggested already π‘
Nice !!
Nice toughts on first toughts π also add some of the motivation quotes about focus and off the screen!!
Really good! Could think of some things to add, but I think the best is to keep it as simple as possible!!
Thanks! Could you give an example?
Thanks! This idea was already mentioned π‘
I pity those poor sods that work on a 16-inch screen. Cruel and unusual.
Even if your app is the best you are doomed if donβt manage a good ad strategy.
App Store is a pay to win game.
Itβs not on the App Store :-)
This feels refreshingly anti noise. I love how it doesnβt add another habit, but helps you step away from the screen and capture your clearest thought. Simple, intentional, and surprisingly grounding...
Minimal, mindful, and intentional. Love that the goal is to stop using the app, not get addicted to it.
Very on-brand for Bitcoiners less dopamine,
more signal.
Turning the screen off instead of keeping users hooked is a bold and much-needed design choice...
All the best π
Most apps fight for attention this one gives it back. That alone makes it stand out. I like it
Thanks...
This fits perfectly with the Nostr/Bitcoin ethos:
self-control, focus, and sovereignty over your attention.!!
Really like how this encourages stepping away instead of scrolling. Clear mind, first thought, then move on. More tools should work like this...
It feels less like an βappβ and more like a mental tool. A small ritual that helps you clear your head, reset your focus, and move forward with a bit more clarity. In a world optimized for distraction, this kind of restraint is rare and refreshing.
Thanks! do you have any specific feedback to improve the app?
Thanks! do you have any specific feedback to improve the app?
Thanks! Do you see any areas to improve?
Thanks! Do you see any areas where the app could be improved?
This doesnβt feel like a productivity hack
it feels like mental hygiene. A quick check-in, a clear thought, then back to real life. That restraint is rare in software today. ππ€πΌ
Thanks! Do you see any areas where the app could be improved?
Thanks! Do you see any areas where the app could be improved?
Are you sure what you go back to is the real life? π
Any ideas on how to improve the app?
Theres so many "meditation" apps & screen shut offs alternatives another one is just adding useless to the useless pile just like these half baked nostr clients coming out that just copy cat others & don't work well on chromium browsers. There isn't a problem that these apps will solve. People lack discipline & happiness apps that instruct you what to do most people ignore because they want to be happy doing what their doing which is ignoring the notification.
Don't think another chat application either theres so many & every new one popping up is now just a clone of nostr dms which btw they all hype the same shit which is bs. They all copy the same layout too which is horrible idk why people don't be original to come up with a better UX then do the same layout every other app has. Im tired of seeing the same layout no matter what app I try where did all the creative people go who made apps? Probably retired & fucking on wealth since they got out of the dev game in 2010.
Basically don't do what the majority has done make something actually useful for people. What I would want to see is a community app where peoples profiles are full markdown webpages. A space where your account lets you create unlimited markdown pages. Yes this is similar to rentry, sntry(site shutdown)(still self hostable), & fluffee. A native android apk which takes this idea further into a community app of searchable communities. Each account can make public chat rooms & private rooms that they can put this chat in their markdown pages as a module so the chat can appear live on the webpage as people are looking at it those with accs can chat & those without could use a guest nickname if enabled.
There will be alot more controls I would explain the rest if you actually try to build the app.
Bruh it's just a timer!!!?? π€π€π€
I have touched the grass of my mini garden till nothing left for the sheeps to eat ππππ
Need to add nature views videos with some natural sounds effects same like raining fall River running wind whispering and so on.
Good Luck.πππ
I did research first and couldnβt find an app like the one I wanted, so I built it. You should do the same!
Thanks! The idea is to turn off the screen, not watch it :-)
Sounds were already suggested a few times as an improvement
Great. But the type of sounds in the app. U need to make it customized. The users may check from a Play list. Even the timer I think it will be better if u can make it sets by the users
