Ratings and reviews

I love Headspace as a service (my daily streak is over 2000 days) but this app gets worse every time they update it; it's overstuffed with random content and it's glitchy to use. My "recent" section hasn't updated for months, meditations often hang without closing for minutes after ending, I get reminder notifications to do the next session of a sleep program I completed a month ago, etc. I keep recommending this app to people but I'm not surprised that almost no one seems to keep using it.

I've used this app for years. I used to enjoy most of the content and get a lot of use out of it (esp the sleep section), but the UI just keeps getting worse, making it harder to find things w/out digging multiple pages deep, which can get stressful. Also, recently there's a lot of focus on the instructors themselves and work productivity, giving a very corporate, toxic-positivity vibe. The old stuff is still good, but I get less and less interested in any of the new.

Overall, i really like headspace, it got a skeptic like me to believe in the power of meditation. Search features and overall selection have come a long way! The only downside for me and why not a 5 star, is that you dont get to choose the narrator. There are 1 or 2 narrators whose voices just dont click with me, and it ruins the immersion, essentially making associated themes unusable to me. I hope they add the option to choose narrator, or at least get ppl with more neutral voices

What's new

A steady meditation practice can calm the mind. But sometimes a bug appears in the app and it distracts us. We removed that bug from this latest version, and we already feel more at ease.
