I assumed it was the group titled "The Living Force".

Let me know if it is a different group...

Hi,

I've just submitted a new group "Temple of the Jedi Order" - not sure what the process is / how frequently they enable new submissions, though. I'll post an update as soon as the group shows up in the search.

I've also joined "The Living Force" group for lack of alternatives until then.

As for OS compatibility: the app is available for iOS and Android. The basic version is free, the deluxe version (with guided meditations etc.) apparently costs something - I can't see the price as I purchased it several years ago and it now just gives me the download symbol on the app store. If your phone runs Android, you have the possibility to check it out first and get a refund if you don't like.


regards,

Cyan

For myself - Probably for all the wrong reasons....!

I've typically just free-timed my meditation or used the timer on my watch or phone.

However, I've not "journal-ed" my meditations. I'm curious if this will give me an impetus to track and provide a basis for journal-ing my meditation.

Beyond that, it's a tool, nothing more than tech-bling for the mind... ;-)

Same reason for me - just like my fitness tracker gives me an incentive to do sports, I find using an app that keeps track of my practice to be an incentive to continue once my old habits try to re-establish themselves

Do you dislike the idea? If so, why?
