The idea for this app has been based on my positive experiences with RunKeeper. I wanted to have something similar for my meditation, to keep me accountable and motivated.

While we are based in Europe (Switzerland), most of our users are from the US (California actually). So a number of tech people and entrepreneurs are already using our app.

Would love some feedback. What can we do better?

Hi Remo, I'm not (yet?) into meditation hence I've have not tested your app and therefore cannot give you any feedback on it. Nevertheless, I really like the way how you openly communicate your findings throughout your startup process. I see that you interact heavily with your customer base. That's great and interesting to follow. Your post here is underlining your open mindset. Keep up the good and well thought out work. felix

Hi Felix, thank you so much for your kind words. I really appreciate it. Yes it's true, we're following a Lean Startup (and YC) approach by listening and talking to users.

I suppose that you have discovered my project log :). If anyone else wants to check it out, it's where I share everything that I learn from building and running this app: http://remo.fm/zenfriend-app/

(it unfortunately hasn't been updated in a while, that's why I didn't mention it. I plan to submit it to HN once I've updated it)
