USER QUOTE
"Discovered this marvellous app by pure accident, but I’m so grateful that I did. It came in the right time into my life. After reading a serious of books on topics of psychology, NLP, self-help and using many meditation and life-changing apps, this one stands among my favourites. It feels very personal, non judgemental. It’s easy and intuitive to use, but not childish and it combines great mindfulness, meditation techniques, as well as psychological challenges."

Ratings and reviews

So far I like the app. I do have a recommendation though. During out chat I noticed a user that speaks another language. I had to go to google translate to better understand what they where saying. It would be pretty neat if you had a feature on the app that would automatically translate things for the users preferred language so that they can communicate more effectively in the chatroom. Just a friendly suggestion to make app even better.

The idea of the app is great. It was recommended by my therapist to use as a tool along side other things. My issue with this app is the idea is to share through a group session but after 4 attempts at various groups none are active. I have tried 4 video calls that are part of the learning and no one joins which defeats the idea of what the app is offering. It's a shame because it's such a good idea but nobody is active on the platform.

Shortly after having started with the premium version of the absolutely fantastic Fabulous app, I discovered this one. They go very well together, and it's unbelievable that 29k is free. Both are by far the best coaching apps I have ever come across. And I'm already avidly recommending them to all my friends who are interested or might benefit from them.
