Ratings and reviews

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.

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.

Lovely voice. Simple no nonsense app that just works. Has helped me for years. I love her voice, but also the music, and the fact that when you want you can turn off voice or music or both and just guide yourself. Very impressed with their modest simplicity and lack of cant. I struggled to meditate for many years, and tried many different apps, but this is the one that helped me the most and is now the app I use the most now. Thanks to the developers for helping one more person meditate
