Absolutely brilliant!!

I have never felt better thanks to this brilliant app

Good, but needs improvements

Overall, I like using this app- it's simple and fairly intuitive and is a helpful supplement to my other methods of improving/maintaining mental health. However, there are 2 things that I think would vastly improve my experience: 1) I'd like to be able to filter by multiple tags at once- currently, you can only listen to one tag at a time. 2) You can set an "auto stop" after x minutes, which is a great idea. Unfortunately, I find that the stop can occur at an awkward point in the background audio. I'd love an option to "auto stop" not only after number of minutes, but also after number of background track cycles.

Everyday

I began soul searching and read several self help books that helped me identify my weaknesses and problem areas. Since I'm entering a challenging period of my life, I'm demanding more from myself than I ever had before. I selected a few of the avail aspirations, but mostly made my own.

The first time I fell asleep to my customized aspiration soundtrack, I was really impressed. I woke up feeling positive and happy. Now I use this app daily when I have to do a lot of reading and writing. I should probably mention I have ADHD, so this app really helps give me the white noise and drowned out environmental distraction. When I'm working (reading and writing papers), I play this app at the same time as another one called Forest. If you have similar work demands and/or ADHD interference, I highly recommend pairing these two together. The other app tracks work time and converts it into social impact (it will plant real trees with your accumulated points). Anyway, I've recommended ThinkUp to 3 of my closest friends and I use it every day. Everyone has inner obstacles to overcome and everyone wants to achieve their own definitions of success. Find what works and stick to it. Make it happen!

Well thought out and effective. Exactly what I was looking for. Highly recommended.

I don't think I've ever reviewed an app before, but I've been using this one for over a year and was reflecting recently on what a difference it has made in my life and decided to rate a review.

The people who put this together clearly cared quite a bit about crafting an excellent product that would really help people.

I had a very specific wishlist for an app of this type and this is the only app that I could find that even came close. The user experience is well thought out and has clearly been carefully designed. It's a joy to use and never frustrates me.

One feature I would add would be an option to instantly mute the sound (preferably even when locked). Maybe by a shake gesture? I don't know if this is technically possible, but it would be a lifesaver.

Another big win would be the ability to search your affirmations to quickly find one that you wanted to edit.

Love it!!

What an amazing and unique app. Thankyou so much. I even have hash tagged a bunch of beautiful affirmations my partner made up for me for nights we are apart. Great success with the sleep affirmations and love Joel Osteens prayers. Highly recommend this app

Four stars for four affirmations

Great app, but when I originally downloaded it, you could record five affirmations without having to upgrade, now you can only record four affirmations! Very disappointing, especially as there was no mention of this when I updated the app! :(

Great App

I have just got the free version & it works beautifully! It is great to have a place to store & record affirmations in you're own voice & to be able to set a pre recorded time to play it back - very useful & powerful!

My only slight criticism is that u have to upgrade to the premium version, b4 u can add any music at all! It would be great if u could just add 1 or 2 tracks for free, that would make it perfect!

However, I will upgrade in the near future to gain access to all of the features!

Thanks again!

So grateful to find this!

This is one of the best apps I've found for developing and maintaining a positive mindset through the use of affirmations. Love the fact you record in your own voice and the background music is so uplifting.
Thanks so much for this beautiful app - 5 stars, highly recommended for everyone needing a daily boost in positivity, gratitude and all things happy!

Great app but would love a random order feature

This app is such a great idea. Hearing the affirmations in my own voice seems pretty powerful. I also love the idea of having music in the background. Selecting and recording affirmations is really easy. Writing your own affirmations into the app is a little harder but, but not a big problem. My main complaint is that I can't seem to play the affirmations in a random order - the only way to do this is to shuffle them manually which is a bit of a hassle, especially when you've bought premium and have 20+ affirmations to listen to. If this app can do that then I seriously see myself using it everyday and having a big impact on my life... And I don't say that much about phone apps! (Except maybe the iPhone calendar, lol).
