Best app for daily stress-free life. I make sure to spend 30 mins daily on the app, listening to audio that calms me down nd reduces the anxiety. Teaches a lot of good breathing techniques to help manage stress and tension. Recommend this for meditation and good sleep.

I had a lot of problems getting my account and the app to work and I was really frustrated but the helpdesk team were able to help me and turn this one-star to a four star. While the customer service team is top notch (I was helped via email, so I can only speak about the mail team), it's annoying that a simple log-in could become such a drama and that's why I'm holding on to the fifth star. But in the end the problem was solved and the app does what it said it would.

Great app lots to do and use , navigation of the site is tricky . Really helping but like all thins needs practice.

Tried it for a few days, it was ok. Not too sure why there are so many people giving it negative reviews for being unable to cancel the free trial, maybe they just don't understand how subscriptions work on play store and have forgotten to cancel in time. It is one of those apps that if you don't cancel before the end of the free trial they will charge you, but that's absolutely normal (even Netflix will charge you of you don't cancel before the end of a free trial!!!). Cancellation maybe the one thing that could be confusing people here but it's not necessarily their fault, cancellation on Android works just like every other subscription service on Android and when you authorise the subscription it clearly states at the bottom of the payment page how to cancel - to cancel you go to the Google Play store and click subscriptions, then you click cancel subscription - once you click cancel there then Google will ask if you really want to cancel, say yes and it's cancelled - any Google play subscription can be cancelled simply in this way, and unless you click renew subscription and go through play store security (fingerprint ID/Google password) they can't reactivate it at their end. If you try to cancel within the app then yeah there is a risk that the play store subscription will still be active and play will just automatically pay it, that why when subscribing play store gives you specific instructions on how to cancel (plus if you look on the internet there is numerous instructions on how to cancel play store subscriptions and they all describe the same method!) It's like having a bank standing order in place and not bothering to cancel it at the bank end when you've cancelled your subscription to whatever it was and then complaining to the company that they took your money - no they didn't the bank did because the instruction to do so is still there, and this is the same with play store subscriptions, cancel them in the subscription list in play store not in the apps.

New to this type of thing, but I thought I would give it ago. I was offered membership via my health insurer. I have been feeling quiet stressed as many in recent times, I used the app for the first time this morning and already feel a difference. I started the basics course and I genuinely couldn’t believe how much more calm I felt just after listening to 2 sessions. I will definitely stick with the app as there looks like there are so many different types of meditations and sleep sounds to explore. These are my initial thoughts and I’ll update my review after a couple of weeks.

Great app, very pleasant to use. However content about medfitations is mainly the same throughout different courses they offer. Basically they offer around 5 technics under various “courses”. So after a few months the app stops bringing value as you don’t need it anymore. Which is nice, meditation is quite simple, However no need buying yearly or even lifetime subscription.

He estado un año subscrito. Creo que es perfecta tanto para principiantes como si ya has practicado algo de meditación. No deja de actualizarse y completarse con nuevo contenido, también actividades físicas, no sólo mentales. Me encanta su diseño y sus animaciones sobre todo, muy sencillas y explicativas, ayudan a comprender los conceptos. Yo no tuve ningún problema con cancelar mi subscripción desde la web. Recibí un correo confirmando la cancelación y haciéndome una oferta por si quería volver. Muy recomendable en resumen.

Refund of annual subscription: After getting billed yesterday for automatic renewal (that I didn't realise I had!), I looked on here and my heart sank. So many bad reviews about not getting a refund. However, I emailed their customer service and also tweeted them. Didn't get a response from the tweet but I did get an email after about 24 hours saying they would refund me and I have confirmation that they have! So sometimes it works! Has restored my faith in a company that should have a reasonable system in place to not create more stress! And because they did this, I might even renew when money is not so tight.
