Meditation you read — small light, late hours.
A quiet, text-only companion for the moments other apps don’t serve. 3 a.m. feeds. Anxious spirals. The five minutes before deep work. No voice. No subscription. No accounts.
Not another
meditation app.
Lampside doesn’t want your subscription. It doesn’t have a guru. It doesn’t track your streak, push notifications, or sell you sleep stories. It’s a small, quiet thing on your phone for the moments you actually need it.
Nine specific moments.
One quiet shape.
The session is text and a circle. That’s the whole thing.
You open Lampside. You pick a mode. You read a few lines of text, paced like a breath. A circle expands and contracts beside the words. A soft chime marks each step. Maybe a haptic tap, if you want it.
When the session ends, you close the app. Nothing tracks you out into the day.
- Templates assembled fresh each time — never the same twice
- Optional bell, optional haptic, both killable in one tap
- Designed to be abandoned mid-session
- Works in airplane mode — everything is on-device
through the nose.
Built quiet.
Built free.
Lampside doesn’t talk. No instructor, no breathy narrator, no music. The whole product is text on a page, paced like a breath. Read what’s there. Put the phone down.
Free, forever. No trial timer, no premium tier, no “upgrade for sleep stories.” If something feels gated, it’s a bug.
Nothing leaves your phone. No email collected, no password, no analytics. Sessions live on your device only — airplane mode is fine.
Every session is reassembled from a small template of fixed anchors and randomized content pools. After 200 sessions of the same mode, you’ve still never seen the same text twice.
The hours other apps
won’t sit with you —
that’s why this exists.
Lampside is on Google Play, free, no sign-up. iOS coming.
