I reached out to the greater to restore my purchase but there was no response. **Developer response:** Hi, please use the "RESTORE" button on the purchase screen to restore any previous purchase. If you still encounter issues, please contact our support at contact@indie-goes.com. Thank you! ### 5/5 — Problem solved *2018-07-30* Please note if you purchase a second session,etc and get locked out of your first one, don’t despair. When it asks you to download again as if you need to re-purchase, just press the Restore prompt and the sessions will all be fully restored. If this doesn’t make sense contact the author or app designer; they want to help make sure things get resolved. ### 5/5 — The best *2017-10-10* I listen ever evening. Must have! ### 4/5 — Soothing, uplifting affirmations *2017-04-15, version 2.5* Very welcome app to help with relaxation. ### 5/5 — Fantastic App. Everyone NEEDS to try it out. *2017-02-15, version 2.5* I strongly urge any of you who may struggle with aches and pains, anxiety or who are just in need of a decent rest & relaxation meditation. This mediation series has elevated my overall well-being and has helped me remain calm and relaxed. Again, a brilliant and truly magic experience. Thank you for making life a joy again. ### 5/5 — Great app *2017-01-05, version 2.5* Excellent app. Very simple design but easy to use and really helpful. ### 5/5 — Love This App *2016-08-14* It works! ### 4/5 — App Hippies *2016-02-02, version 2.4* Great! App ### 5/5 — Not your typical affirmations *2015-12-07* I have used four of Barbara Clark’s amazing affirmation mp3s on her super easy-to-use app - Relaxation and well-being, Self Love (Part 1 & 2), Support Your Lower, Middle and Upper Back, and Release Grief & Trauma. These are not your typical affirmations, for at least two reasons. One is Barbara’s incredible voice, which I find to be a healing transmission in itself. Secondly I think she is using some kind of magic here - a special method – I don’t know what it is, but it reminds me of NLP or another “subconscious” restructuring technique. These are truly comforting and amazing tools. Last year when I was on an extended solo journey in Africa, my low back went into severe spasm. Being far from home and any of the usual healing resources, I was really distressed. I tried resting, heat and gentle stretching, but after days of severe pain and immobility, I needed help. I suddenly remembered Barbara’s website, which I had known a bit about before. I purchased the back support mp3, and the first night, I felt enormous comfort and reduced pain as I drifted off to sleep. In the morning, I was about 50% better, and I continued to listen to the mp3s about twice a day for the next few days, during which my pain steadily reduced and my mobility increased. I was so relieved and grateful for this when in such a difficult circumstance. I have been so energized and uplifted by the self love affirmations. They are incredible vibration raisers even when I am feeling down Being able to use the mobile app to access these from anywhere is awesome! I feel as though I have a friend and healer available to me anytime! ### 4/5 — Helpful *2015-12-01* I love this. I wish there were more to chose from and not so expensive to purchase each one. But there's about 3 different ones I change between and listen to every single night. And I believe they really help me. Money, personal love, anxiety. I wish they'd develop more options at a more reasonable price. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not worth the money *2019-02-19* Was very disappointed with what zi got for the price of my purchase. I will update review if there is any improvement in my back pain. ### 1/5 — Total rip off *2018-04-01, version 2.6* Downloaded the app and they want $10.00 PER MEDITATION !!!! ### 1/5 — In app purchases *2017-02-17* The in-app purchases do not tell you how much they are before entering iTunes. ### 1/5 — Purchases don't stay put *2015-06-12* I purchased one session, and really enjoyed it!! So I purchased a second session, and then the first one I purchased disappeared/relocked. When I tried to restore it within the app, the whole screen freezes while it's "trying to contact the online store". Furthermore, there was no clear section for app support option on the website. Excellent meditations, but I barely got to use the session for which I paid $6 - not cheap for an app. ### 1/5 — Terrible. *2015-04-27, version 2.1* This lady's voice is not conducive to relaxation. Her pronunciation is clipped and stern. She almost sounds like a teacher giving you a telling off. I would not recommend this app unless the voice is changed. ### 2/5 — Issue with app *2024-10-01, version 4.1* The app just redownloaded a new version 10/1/24 and the app has been changed and I can no longer use it. The voice saying the affirmations is has been slowed down in speed and it takes too long to even say a sentence with the new slowed down voice. Also the screen is not stretched out and looks distorted. I tried to contact app support but the link does not function. Please fix this app so it is functional or refund my money. Thank you. ### 2/5 — Love the content - but lost all my purchases when I got a new phone! *2020-01-26, version 2.6* Frustrated to spend $30 CAD for sessions I can no longer access since I got a new phone... ### 2/5 — Purchase *2017-06-11* I am not able to purchase because the page freeze before entering the App Store. ### 3/5 — Wish that volume control could return *2024-12-26, version 4.1* I love the meditations, however i miss the old layout. Before there was a feature to control both the volume of the meditation words and the music. Otherwise its a good app. ### 3/5 — I love this app, but... *2016-02-15* Every time I download a new mediation, any other meditation I have bought in the past locks on me and I have to buy it again...I really thing this needs to be looked at because I have to go back to apple for a refund now. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Long time listener *2025-06-26* My day starts and ends with this app. I can’t believe I’ve never written a review, and that more people haven’t downloaded this! I found Barbara’s meditations back before the app existed and they were just a download, ~15 years ago. The back meditations brought me into this program, but I use more than half of them. The stress and anxiety meditation has worked wonders. Each and every mediation I’ve purchased within the app is worth every single penny! ### 5/5 — Great value , fabulously effective *2024-08-18, version 4.1* I have successfully used 5 of these wonderful programmes, cannot praise them enough Sonja Kobelt ### 5/5 — Its my twice daily app. *2023-10-30* I started using it from 2019, and since then there is not looking back. The regular 15 mins free version is the one i listen daily. I purchased money affirmation and hear it before sleeping every day. Thank you, it does have an impact and i mean it.😌😌😊 ### 5/5 — Beyond Affirmations *2022-07-28* I have thoroughly enjoyed the calming voice and positive healing affirmations from Barbara Clark. I have recommended it to several of my friends. ### 5/5 — Magic *2022-06-18* Grateful to have stumbled upon this app, as these meditations have been game changers in my life…I listen regularly ❤️ ### 5/5 — Works *2020-08-15, version 2.6* Perfect ### 5/5 — Mind-Body *2020-05-12* This app played a huge part in me overcoming over a year of debilitating back pain. Several years later, I’m still pain free and regularly use this app to help stay that way. It took time and patience...but it was literally a life changer. ### 5/5 — It works *2020-01-29, version 2.6* I was surprised to discovered some mental blocks I had that were causing me pain. These meditations help a lot. It definitely worth it. You won’t regret it ### 5/5 — Great meditations *2019-09-27, version 2.6* These meditations are relaxing and soothing and help me fall asleep. Money well spent. ### 5/5 — Feel better!! *2019-02-11* I cannot fully put into words what these mediations have done for me. Barbara’s soothing voice will take you to a state of relaxation free of fear, sadness, anger and all the other negative emotions that make you sick. I like the very specific nature of this app, but I highly recommend this one as well as the “Release, Heal and Transform” app. I’ve requested she make more for the body specifics and am hoping she considers for things like better eyesight, breathing and lung function and maybe even for hormone and reproductive health. Keep it up, Barbara!!! ❤️ --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
