Quick answers
How do I start a meditation?
On the home screen, drag the candle up to the duration you want — 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, or 60 minutes. Release the candle. A meditation matching that length will start automatically.
To stop early, tap the candle.
The audio isn't playing.
A few things to try:
- Check your phone's silent switch. Glimmer respects your phone's silent/ringer setting. If silent mode is on, the audio may not play.
- Check your volume. Use the side buttons to make sure the volume isn't all the way down.
- Force-quit and reopen the app. Swipe up from the home screen, dismiss Glimmer, and tap to reopen.
- Check your internet connection. Audio is streamed from a server the first time you play a meditation. If you have no signal or weak Wi-Fi, the audio may fail to load. Once a meditation has been played, it's cached locally and will work offline.
If the audio still won't play after all of that, email me — I'll help diagnose.
Can I use Glimmer offline?
Partially. The first time you play any meditation, it's cached on your device. After that, you can play it again without any internet connection. New meditations require a connection to download the first time.
