Find and connect with friends on Insight Timer
Connecting with friends on Insight Timer is simple and helps you build a supportive meditation community. There are two main ways to search for friends and add them to your network so you can share your meditation and mindfulness journey together.
Find friends using the Search tool
The quickest way to find a friend is through the search feature in your Library. This method lets you search for people by name and instantly view their profiles.
- Open the Insight Timer app on your device.
- Tap the Library tab, which is the magnifying glass icon at the bottom of the screen.
- Tap the Search icon in the top-right corner of the Library screen.
- Type your friend's name in the search bar.
- Tap the People tab to see matching profiles that match your search.
- Select your friend's profile from the results to view their profile details.
- Once you've found their profile, if you're not yet connected, tap Add Friend to send a friend request. If you're already friends and their messaging is set to "Anyone," you'll see the option to send them a message directly.
Connect with friends through your profile
You can also manage friend requests and view pending connections directly through your account profile menu. This is a great way to see who's tried to connect with you.
- Open the Insight Timer app on your device.
- Tap the three lines (☰) menu icon in the top-left corner of the screen.
- Tap Notifications to view your incoming friend requests and activity.
- Tap See All to view the complete list of all your pending friend requests.
From there, you can accept, decline, or manage your friend requests however you'd like. This gives you full control over your community connections.
