The best meditation app for those who want a bit of guidence. It has options to tailor your meditation session. I like the narrator's voice, but I love that I can control how loud it is. It doesn't hold you hand like the more expensive apps so you won't find yourself completely dependent on it. If you really want to get into the practice of meditation, and not just attempt to reap the benefits as fast as you can, this is the app for you.
So much about so little - i have no idea why there is a menu, since it seems that there is literally only one mode for mediation and only choose the type of sounds you hear. the other buttons are ads for another app. There is ONE guided mediation, that's it.
Great app for someone who has trouble meditating. It helps keep me not-focused and has a variety of periods of time so I can pick length depending on my schedule. It would be nice if there was variety on the verbiage, but otherwise great.
An excellent meditation app. You control both meditation time and background music as well as other features. The voice is soothing and professional. I recommend this app. Yep. Seriously 😎
Love the different nature sounds. It also gives you volume control for the background sounds and the voice. Sometimes I will just play the sound of rain and turn the voice all the way down.
I have been using this app for years now and love the different options for time, music or nature sounds. I find the voice really calming and the guided meditation really useful when my mind starts to wander
Best meditation app I've encountered. Beautiful peaceful voice. App has simple but effective options. I've tried a handful of other ones but always come back to this one.
I like the nature sounds option but her voice is sooooo grating on the nerves, like nails on a chalk board. wish they had an alternative voice available.
A great relaxation app. Easy to use and very soothing. Just enough choices to be useful without being too complex
No complicated senarios you have to imagine or light hitting your body etc that make me more stressed! Just a lovely calming, soothing voice. i have used this for years as a sleep or rest aid and loved it during labour too
Nice guided meditations. Easy to customize your experience such as time and background sound.
It helps me fall asleep. I have chronic sleep problems. I disable the talking and just meditate to the music. Lol 😆💖
one of the best meditation apps available, the narrator's voice is extremely soothing and this app is very helpful for greatly reducing angziety
Easy to use. I like the many options for time, music i respond better to a female voice.
Always works to center and calm. The cues are what any meditation teacher or guide would use and are well timed.
A lovely relaxing app and the speaker has the most beautiful voice. The music is really nice too
My first time at trying meditation. I use it to help me relax so I can go to sleep. I appreciate how simple but effective it is.
Almost always end up relaxed and asleep before the end of the session. Great App. Many thanks
A guided meditation app that is free and actually works. Highly recommended!
This app was recommended by my therapist long time ago. I still use it and I do not have problems with it. I truly love the app.
This is one of the best app meditation I found. I found this very useful to relax.
This is the best meditation ever. Very simple
This app got me started with regular meditation at a time when I really needed it.
Works everytime. Really good nights sleep. Never hear end even when only 10 mins ser.
Like the title, this meditation app is just that: simple. This app was recommended to me many years ago by a therapist to help manage anxiety. I've been using it ever since (and a sister app, iSleep Easy). Nothing complicated about the guided meditations, though you can customize background sounds and music & length of meditation. It's simply a soothing voice helping to guide your mind through taking a moment to let go of everything else going on around you, and simply exist. Very refreshing.
