Warning!!! Started a free trial and now I can't cancel my subscription. As I switched from an iphone to an android phone I can not cancel my subscription as set up on itunes. As you need to use an apple device to log on to itunes. Unlike other apps there is no cancel my subscription or turn off auto renew on the app. This results in them taking lots of other payments from lots of people. See the other reviews, lots of people having this issue with headspace. . I can neither get my money back or cancel. Pretty terrible considering they are marketing themselves as a well being product.

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.

Wisdom is acquired by meditation, as to say this app really is the source of all mine bright ideas. Meditation is in itself an intellectual practice that allows one to truly introspect. A wide variety of features and expert guidance incorporated into this app; allowed me to make the best choice I've ever made.

I got cold feet about this app when I realized it was impossible to hear anything without entering a credit card number. Too bad.

Very limited/basic information that has you thinking whether it is just marketing and they know it. I found nothing on headspace that I couldn't find in other places online for free. I don't understand the value added

I like their app, but it is just one of many offering the same product. My issue is with the lack of transparency in the pricing of their subscriptions. They will give you a discount on 40% no matter what (just ask), so their advertised price is not trustworthy. Even the discounted price is not trustworthy as they have resellers selling subscriptions with additional 35% discount of their already discounted price. I will find another product which translatable in their prices, and thus doesn’t act like a greedy company trying to take advantage of their customers’ trust.

The amount of exercises is huge in the app and I have to say I use it in so many different ways. If I'm stuck on a project for work then I use the focus exercise, if I can't sleep I listen to a sleepcast (Beach one is my fav) and do the Winddown. And if I go on a run, I love Kim's motivation run. Really loving this app, kind of wow.

Headspace plays a critical role in my journey building a mental health care routine -- feeling supported by the teaching and reassuring voices of Andy & the other teachers but also the variety of content I can go to when I need to explore or focus on a topic that matters for me (creativity, patience, relationships etc.). Not only does it now have a central place in my morning routine, right after my coffee, but I also go back to it several times a day, to explore new topics, watch a short video, put on a nice focus playlist when I need to work or listen to my favorite sleepcasts with my partner at night. I couldn't live without Headspace, so thank you to the team making it real everyday!
