New einkMeditation App for Mudita Kompakt

Hey there, I have developed over some months my own meditation app (with AI support) for the Muditat Kompakt, to overcome some limitations of the existing app. It is a personal project and was developed only for the Mudita Kompakt, but it might work well for other devices as well. I use it daily, so I expect it to be pretty stable, but please let me know if you have any feedback. I have not yet implemented an interval bell feature, but it is on my list if you are interested (I don’t use it much myself).

You can download the apk here:

Here are some of the main functions:

  • Meditation timer
    • with start/end cues (bell / vibration / light flashing)
    • turn background light off during meditation
    • hide meditation time display during meditation
    • adjustable pre-meditation countdown
    • allow additional time to be tracked (or not)
    • use predefined meditation times or adjust to any time (minutes)
  • Practice overview with:
    • “Today”
    • “7‑day horizon” (restart-aware, may show fewer days)
    • “30‑day horizon” (only shown when meaningful)
    • motivating headline + suggestion for today
    • streak tracking
  • Session list with paging and manual add/delete (useful for meditation retreats)
  • general features
    • supports English and German languages
    • You can set your own long-term and short-term goals; the app will use them to provide you with meaningful feedback and suggestions.

Looks great! Have you thought about making this accessible through the mind apps app (https://www.reddit.com/r/MuditaKompakt/comments/1q57pq3/mind_apps_mindful_apps_for_eink/)?

Hey just wondering what your process was like to make eink optimized apps through Chat GPT? Did you have previous experience with making apps?

I did not have prior experience with app development, but 10+ years ago, I was working as a software developer. So I know something about the process. But ChatGPT really helped me get to a good starting point. From then on, it was quite a learning journey (around app development and how to use ChatGPT), and to get to a meaningful result, it needed more time than I had hoped for at the beginning. But it is also enjoyable to have an app that exactly suits my needs and, hopefully, is useful to others.
