Leave a Review Relax Meditation
Excellent for those new to meditation
The experience I have had with this app is really very good. You can create your own background music or sounds. The speaker has a very calm, appealing voice which relaxes you and keeps you connected. The introductory classes or sessions really help you understand why we need to meditate. Although, I do have trouble keeping my mind focused I can see that through more lessons I can get the hang of this. I find it very relaxing and would suggest it to anyone who is new to meditation.Show lessTigerlillynyc
Superb
We started using a noise machine to cover up snoring some years ago. It worked well, but the noise machine would break every other year and we'd replace it. Then I tried an app for a noise machine. I've tried a few, and this is the best, unquestionably. There is a great variety of sounds, and you can create your favorite combinations with each sound at its own volume, and save and label it for the future. I never wanted to get into a subscription payment, so had never gone pro. Now they offer lifetime access for a reasonable set fee, and it is well worth it! As much as I have used and enjoyed this app, I was happy to have the opportunity to compensate the company, and the current lifetime fee is at a proper point when comparing it to stand alone models and other apps. I suggest you try the free version for a few months and then don't be surprised if you upgrade!
One more thing - some other apps are just not as good as stand alone noise machines. This app is far better because of the quality of the sound options and the ability to really personalize the saved sounds.Show lessCyndyML
Worthwhile to go pro
I downloaded both the Relax Melodies and Relax Meditation apps together, liked them both and had much difficulty picking which one to go pro on during this promotion. I ended up paying $20 for lifetime subscription on one app and to my surprise, they both went pro! I truly enjoyed these two apps a lot.
I had other meditation apps before for the past 6 months. As I became more advanced in meditating, they became monotonous and boring. These two apps are advanced enough without breaking the banks! Other advanced meditation apps can easily cost $10/month, so this one is much more affordable. I have no regret going pro!Show lessIntuision
A pleasant surprise
First of all, I have been using this App for a few years as my go-to sleeping program. With all the sounds and tones, it's easy to find something anyone would want. The tones have especially changed my life and have made taking a calming nap while trying to get over a migraine actually possible.
But what really led me to write this review was the shock I had that it not only updated completely after many years, but that it also synced the lifetime membership to the one on my phone automatically. It's nice to have all the features of both versions. Before the update, the one on my phone had to be bought separately, even though it was the same program. It had caused me to worry that they were getting rid of the program I had the lifetime membership to. I'm so glad to know that wasn't the case.Show lessSquidloaf
One of my favorites!
I switch between this one and Rain Rain as I like to have a variety of sounds and control the volume for each. Unlike Rain Rain, Relax Meditation allows a LARGE number of sounds to be in your mixes. However, I wish it was possible to view all playing sounds in a simple dropout menu and also allow me to adjust volumes in the same drop menu. Currently you have to scroll through all the sounds to see what's playing and have to hold the sound to adjust the volume individually.
Also editing a favorite mix seems to only edit the name of it? I can't seem to select the sounds to delete or adjust them.
These are smaller features I'd like for more convenience but overall I use this app regularly and the sounds are clear and I do love the visuals. Very relaxing and I have fun making my own mixes! I purchased the lifetime version and do not regret it.Show lessSirWallus
Saved my Vacation...!
I discovered your app at a desparate moment in a "too quiet" hotel room on vacation. I usually sleep with a huge powerfull fan on, and I needed something to send through the bluetooth speaker that would give me good "noise". I love how you can touch the hanging tiles that each have a different sound and you can layer them together to get just what you want! Very useful. I can see how this would be handy for a mom with a baby who needs to calm down and go to sleep. Many free choices and options to upgrade to bigger sound packages. This app is fun to just play around with! I dont want to spend my vacation time fooling around with this app, but it sure is tempting!!

Love it!
My wife and I love listening to running water sounds while we sleep at night and early morning to drown out the ambient noises of the neighborhood, such as the neighbor's dogs, lawn mowers, construction equipment, utility trucks. My wife downloaded a different app for this purpose earlier but it cycles with a very noticeable skip, which is enough to wake me up at times. I love this app for several reasons - not the least of which is the fact that the sound doesn't "skip" when it cycles. I also love the ability to combine sounds - I gravitate to rain and running water. We also like to experiment with combining sounds. Keep up the good work!Show lessRocketmanRob
Music for Sleeping
Update to my previously submitted review (below): Hooray to the composers who created new sounds and melodies that happened to address my concerns and/or criticisms. There are more evocative music selections that don't get stuck with short repetitive melodies but rather wash over you or lull you into a state of calm and peace. Also there's an impressive number of new meditations. All in all, thanks for the welcome updates.
Previous review:
I appreciate all the choices of sounds and ability to customize ... but I wish the sounds with melodies (piano, flute, orchestra, etc.) had a longer loop cycle. Some of them consist of just four notes - whistleable, memorable notes, if you know what I mean - where instead of relaxing you, start to annoy or frustrate you because you're fixating on it, instead of letting it wash over you. I'm a music teacher, so perhaps I'm hyper sensitive to this. If you could offer more music choices with less melody and more of a droning, hypnotic quality, I'd give this app five stars. Thank you for a great app.Show lessLeasuca
Wonderful!
I was looking for an alarm clock app for my ipad when I found this. I hadn't set out to find meditation sounds and music. I practise yoga and meditation most every day and so have a series of go-to tracks and videos to set the audio ambience for these, but a limited repitoire can begin to feel a bit stale.
This app allows for a wonderful level of granular control. I find I am tweaking audio mixes according to my mood every day. The sounds are very well considered, each with their own volume slider. I can save favorites. There is so much available for free with this app!
When I can, I look forward to upgrading for the additional content, but do not feel deprived until then.
The graphics and interface are lovely. Oh, and the alarm clork is perfect! It is a straight-forward alarm clock with a snooze button and non-violent waking sounds. I love the chimes to wake to.Show lessFurys0ng
Story Time
Years back there was this "sound machine" let's call it from Brookstone. The radio-like thing could play a variety of soothing melodies and sounds from rain and thunder to ocean waves crashing against the beach. They were relaxing and wasn't just a cool piece of tech to have in my room, but something that could help me sleep and study.
I'd always wanted one. However, the problem was that it was too expensive. Years would pass and I told myself that one day there would be enough money set aside to buy it. As it goes that day never came.
Fast forward and I received an iPad Mini for my birthday. The same one aim typing this review with. At some point I started searching for "ambient sound" and the like. Eventually I found this app.
From then on I've been using this for everything that I had intended when I was younger. Including transcendental meditation. Needless to say it's been an awesome little treasure.
The recent visual and functional update for the iPad is a sorely needed and greatly appreciated follow up since it was first downloaded.
To all of those working at iLBSoft.
Sincerely and wholeheartedly. Thank you.
It's the simple things. You know? That's what makes life the amazing adventure that it is.Show lessSignature905
