Yes. Reflect is on both the App Store and Google Play, where it has over 50,000 installs and a 4.6 rating.

“The music and sound effects weren't the highest quality. A lot of the app was centered around tracking and streaks, and some people might not be as interested in that.”
Reflect offers the widest range of session lengths, from about 2 and a half minutes up to 15, so it works for a quick moment or a longer quiet time. That's more flexible than Pause, which tops out at 5 minutes, or Soultime at 3 to 5. Everything in the app is free, unlike Abide, Hallow, and Soultime, and it's the only one with a tracking feature for people who like to see their progress. It also seems non-denominational, so it may suit more people than Catholic-focused apps like Hallow and Amen, and its calm aesthetic is more soothing than Amen's busier design.
Reflect's design and audio quality fall behind the top apps. Pause, Abide, and Soultime all scored 10/10 on design, while Reflect scored 7/10, and its music and sound effects weren't as polished. Pause beat it overall by being just as free and non-denominational while offering a higher-quality, more peaceful experience. Reflect's focus on tracking and streaks may also turn off people who want a simpler, quieter practice.
