What is Insight Timer?
Insight Timer is a big, calm library of guided audio from independent teachers 🧘♀️🌙 Choose meditations, breathwork, sleep tracks, music, talks, yoga and movement, filtered by what you need, like sleep, anxiety, stress or focus. The app began as a meditation timer, and that's still here with custom bells, alongside progress stats and an Apple Health connection. Teachers run live classes and events, and you can join community groups and follow the teachers you like. Most content is free, even in guest mode without an account; an optional subscription adds courses, offline downloads and extra player controls. It's made by Insight Network Inc for iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Android and the web.
