Ratings and reviews

Very happy that this app is free, globally. A nice range of topics and features. Minus one star because it says it's tracking your progress, but, on various Android builds, it insists that whatever you worked with last, is "next". Very frustrating and time consuming to either: a: have to take extra steps after meditating, just to get the heart indicating completion and/or b: having to spend minutes from opening the app to figure out where one last was.

Easy to use; accessible and very blind friendly; thank you. It's getting very hard to find an app that isn't overloaded with unlabeled images, buttons, and circular sliders. Thanks for a straight-from-the-hip, getter-done meditation app. You're welcome. I'm really grateful that the reminders are verbal as well. Most apps seem to think that visual reminders are enough, but blind people don't have the luxury of looking at their phones constantly, so thanks for talking to me.

I really want to like this app, it's one of the few meditation apps that doesn't have content hidden behind a subscription. But the app itself is buggy. The intro sequence to gauge your issues is slow and laggy but not unusable. But after I selected my programs, it said I didn't have any programs selected and the tab for "all programs" was empty. So yeah, I'm hoping this is fixed so I can actually meditate without a paywall
