Spookily accurate 👀 but tracks you like crazy

UPDATE: I have serious concerns over the privacy in this app. I honestly believe that it uses AI to track your messages on your phone and also your verbal conversations. I’d be interested if other people thought the same about this app? It is too coincidental. I read over a message sent to a tradesmen and it tells me I communicate my feelings respectfully. Five minutes later a conversation with a friend about how I used to walk 6 miles a day. Then a notification telling me how I like to be active in my life. It really paints the picture of the world these days - giving something so useful and heartfelt but has background shenanigans behind the scenes. I’d rather pay more for no tracking. Hard to feel good about this app now I’ve seen it 😔 Time to delete

Get this!

This is the app that has the most positive influence on my life by far. I rarely go into the app itself, but the one notification a day genuinely sets the positive tone for the day, and always says something I need to hear on that day to make things better. It’s the only notification I keep on my lock screen / drop down menu, so I can keep seeing it. I’ve also got the widget on the first screen that comes up when I open my iPhone, as seeing that, even when I don’t intentionally look for it and go on my phone for something else, it definitely has a positive subconscious effect. I have come so far on my healing journey, thank you for being such a big part of it and creating an app that genuinely helps people 💕

Needs More Development Support

I enjoy this app, but the developers are not consistently updating or providing necessary functionality support. The apps, widgets, and premium features have never synced properly, and this shows in multiple reviews from others. As a multi-year subscriber, I can confirm this has been occurring for years, and not changed very much in consistency of support. The app functionality could easily sync all content, across all devices used, but this not even an option, which is silly to me. I don’t want different affirmations on each device, personal data collected upon set up each time it is downloaded or redownloaded on a new or existing device, that is tedious and unnecessary to the user. This could easily be applied in a separate menu, and available after a login to sync the personal content already established on an existing device or account. For example, the same background and favorited affirmations need to be available, synced, consistently displayed in each platform, be it a widget, Apple Watch, iPad, or iPhone. The Monkey Taps development team absolutely have the money from premium subscriptions to accommodate such basic support functionality, consistently, with each update, or as necessary, at minimum. Be better, and do better by correcting this asap. It’s the right thing to do! :)

A great resource and adds positivity to my daily life

This app has really helped me in the darkest year of my life. My whole life I’ve struggled with self confidence, negative self talk and thought distortions.

But I am a believer in what you see, hear, think, and say, has a direct impact into your relationship with yourself. It really can be so simple. When I started therapy, my therapist always recommended affirmations. I’d sit and write them out over and over. But this app giving me reminders throughout the day forced me to read it and over time I started to be more gentle on myself because I started believing what I was reading. My mindset shifted, I felt a change in my self talk and how I perceived myself. I learned not to be so hard on myself and treat myself with the same compassion that I would with a friend.

I recommend this app to anyone who struggles or needs a little pick me up when they’re down or need to change the way they view themselves. It’s a great stepping stone into giving yourself the grace you are deserving of and I can imagine it’s helped so many other people. I’m thankful I can share it with others so I can see how it can impact them too. 🩷

Auto charged

The app doesn’t give an option to change types of quotes. Automatically charged even though I cancelled. In the process of waiting for a refund.

I am

First of all, I’m just going to say that this app has helped so may people, including me, and it will help so many more. Bless the creator of this app, because you have a mind and heart for helping others. There are so many pros to the app, like cute widgets, affirmation reminders, and other things as well. A tiny con that came up to me and also happened to a couple other users is some of the affirmations did not resonate with me as a Christian, such as, “I am in control” and “I deserve to be loved”. From a Christian worldview, no one is in control except God, and nobody deserves anything on this Earth. Many of the affirmations do tie to Christian worldviews, such as, “It’s ok that I’m not perfect” and “It’s ok to not know what’s coming next”. And I understand that many people using this app are not religious, but it would be nice to see more inclusivity to religion, like Christianity and others. I know it’s hard to include so many people from so many different places and worldviews and try to merge everyone’s perspective on affirmations, but adding a religious category would be helpful. Thank you for the app, and I hope you have a great day.

Life changing!

I honestly never write reviews for an app but I’ve been using ‘I am’ continuously for 30 days and it has been life changing for me.
I read the affirmations everyday and my inner thoughts are so much more positive, something I’ve been struggling to do for the past 10 years.
I feel so much more motivated and happy that I even started going to the gym, being kinder to myself on bad days and taking care of my body.

Also to add this app is really easy to use and although it’s low effort it really really pays off!
