Only good for approx a minute
This app is ok but after a minute or so the dot fills the screen so you aren’t moving anything around and it loses its purpose. Also find it strange that it says to close your eyes... but then you can’t see the following instructions on the screen as there is no audio. Not the worst but some serious flaws.

Thanks for your feedback. We intentionally designed PAUSE to ask you close the eyes while maintain the mindful finger movements. There should be sound scape playing during eyes closed, and we recommend to always use a earphone. Btw, we just released a new update, please give it a try and let us know your feedback.
Enjoyable
OK, so here’s the deal. I use this just like those old “ocean wave” toys. (The ones that came in a plastic tube, and were filled with a thick blue liquid and a clear liquid. You tilted them from one end of the tube to the other to make “waves”.) With this app, i don’t close my eyes, and I pay no attention to the “too fast” or “too slow” because I don’t care what the developer had in mind, I just want to play with the colors. It does fill the screen, but, if you move around toward the corners you will see that the circle is still there. Then you can start playing with it, making it bigger and smaller, and moving around. It’s a not perfect app. I’d like a little more control of the size of the circle, and the colors, but I enjoyed it.

Extremely simple - in a good way
A simple and efficient way to reset your mind, for the price of half a cup of coffee. Just don’t expect it to do anything it doesn’t do.
Waste of two perfectly good George’s.
WTAF? Total bs and a waste of money.
Relaxing App
This app makes it easy to meditate and is super relaxing. Only complaint so far is it needs to be able to go full screen on iPhone X and above. Looking at black bars on top and bottom is aesthetically unpleassing. And with you’re eyes closed if you move your finger over the bars then it stops the session.

Apologies for the waiting, we just released an update to support iPhone X. Please give it a try.
Needs voice instructions
Tells you to close your eyes but continues to give visual instructions which you obviously can’t see if your eyes are closed. Useless app without voice instructions.
My fav
I love this app! I've used it for years (though I probably don't use it enough) and I've found it consistently calming and visually stunning. The audio is also very effective in clearing the mind. If you're like me and don't respond very well to someone-talking-in-a-smooth-voice meditation, this might just be the app for you. (Pro tip: put the time up to 20 minutes for a deeper and more calming dive.)

Love it but....
Fantastic alternative to a mindfulness app, truly great. But... even though I paid for the app every time I open it I get forced to see an ad for Sway their other product which is annoying and annoyed is not the feeling you want to relax! I expect ads for freebies but this feels cheap.
Not worth it 😒
As others have said, once the blob fills the screen there’s not much else to do. You could just rub your finger on your screen anyway for free... not worth the $1.99
Almost perfect
There’s no option to mute the sound! This would be perfect for listening to a podcast or music and relaxing, but your ambient music ruins any chance of that.
An option to keep the circle on the screen would be good. Also, once the colour fills the screen, moving my finger feels pointless as there is no visual feedback after that. An idea would be to have it automatically start again with another small coloured circle and so on..
Let me emphasise that this app is pretty amazing. It’s super clever. But you’re a 6/10. With a few features you can reach 10/10.
