Tapback: Meditation Timer
Gentle taps back to the breath
Only for Watch
Free · In‑App Purchases
Apple Watch
Tapback is a simple meditation timer for Apple Watch. Gentle haptic reminders help you notice when your mind has wandered and return to the breath.
Set a session length, choose how often you want a tap, and begin. Tapback stays quiet and out of the way—no guided audio, accounts, streaks, ads or subscriptions.
GENTLE FOCUS REMINDERS
Choose a fixed rhythm from every 10 seconds to once a minute, or receive taps at the halfway point, thirds or quarters of your session.
THREE TAP STYLES
Pick the haptic that gets your attention without jolting you.
ROLLOVER
Let the timer continue after the planned end for open-ended sits.
APPLE HEALTH
Optionally save completed sessions as mindful minutes. Tapback writes only the start and end time and never reads your Health data.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Tapback runs entirely on your Apple Watch. There are no accounts, analytics, ads, tracking or network requests.
Tapback is free. If it helps your practice, an optional tip jar supports continued development.

tl;dr fixes a crash when starting a session. Shoutout Jay for the report!
---
Issue: Apple Watch hardware is `arm64_32`, where Swift's `Int` is 32-bit, so passing an `Int` to `String(format:)` against the string catalogue's 64-bit `%lld` under-filled the C vararg buffer — the trailing `%@` then read past the end and `objc_msgSend`ed garbage, crashing on the session screen's accessibility value at every session start.
Fix: Replaced all `String(format:)` call sites with `String(localized:defaultValue:)`, which passes arguments type-safely instead of through C varargs.
