One of the worst user experiences available
It's genuinely easier to log into my bank's app than calm health. It constantly logs you out to the point where it provides a stressful app experience.
Invasive
New health app is very invasive and has too many questions I just want to listen to soundscapes
Missing one important feature
I am giving this three stars because it’s missing one important feature that the regular calm health app has. The ability to set a background theme with music. I do not like to listen to someone speaking without that gentle background music. Radiating Energy from Kip Mazuey often playin in my headphones for hours

Mixes
The app is ok. But, it really needs some options. I like to be able to mix soundscapes, with color sounds and music. With toggles to change the volume individually. I got spoiled by another app. This is available as a benefit with my insurance plan.
Apple Health integration missing
As much as I don’t like the idea of my health care provider having access to all my personal data, which is what this app offers them, I also think it’s a huge miss that Calm Health does not integrate with the Apple Health app. This deprives users of a complete picture of their health and efforts to improve and maintain it. The integration is there for the normal Calm app, but not here for Calm Health. Huge, gaping hole that seems to portend corporate hoarding of health data for future financial manipulation.

Non-continuous continuos music
The music keeps pausing and then you have to unlock your phone. Really annoying when you’re trying to fall asleep.
Thumb print log in doesn't work
The thumb print log in only works one time after entering your password. So at night when I want to listen, I can't log in. I would use it often if I didn't have to enter a password every other attempt.
sub optimal version
does not have the same track of meditations and they are often shorter then on the regular calm app, this version has more pop ups as well, clearly a marketed up health insurance version.
Just let me get to what I want!
I just want to use the app like the old one. Stop asking me stuff every time I open it. And it doesn’t go straight to get back to sleep anymore!!
Intrusive terms of service
My employer is transitioning us from Calm to Calm Health. I am forced to agree to let it collect sensitive health data before I can even open the app. I think it is outrageous just so I can listen to stories and ambient sounds. Not going to happen!
Too Complicated and brings less calm to use it
I almost don’t want to use this app because it’s actually quite frustrating to use. I like the simplicity of the original Calm app and how they have it easy to navigate to meditations and sleep stories. But it seems that we are being forced to switch to this.
I really hope that they make it less frustrating to operate because too many taps to get to one place is actually harder on my mental health than simple easy to navigate.
Also the load screen takes way too long to get to the Home Screen.
Maybe make the shortcuts at the bottom customizable so that you can go right to meditations and sleep stories.
I don’t know but I do know opening up this app brings me less calm than the original.

Impossible
I’ve spent way too long trying to register. It keeps saying wrong password, etc.
Love this app
Helps me with trying Moments in a very trying time. My daughter recommended it and I get it free through her work. She’s an Angel too.
Needs a better layout
You have to dig to find anything and you cannot favorite playlists to easily go back to them. The mobile app is also not made for people with anxiety. Too many taps to get to any of the calming music. Way too much focus on the breathy talking and not enough music with no vocals just to clear the mind.

Stresses me out
The content is good if you can get to it. If I haven’t been in the app in a while, trying to hack into it and re-register and go through the evaluation process — this elevates my stress level. When using a meditation series, it doesn’t indicate which days have been completed - so I have to scroll through and figure it out or repeat. Maybe the Calm App (vs. Calm Health) has better user friendly engagement - but not sure I would be willing to pay the subscription to find out.

Terrible experience switching
My employer switched to calm health and I could never get the switch to work from Calm. Call was good, not sure what Calm Health is but since the app is unusable I won’t find out.
Calm
Every single time I open the app you ask for a review and it’s so annoying. It already takes a little bit longer to find what you’re looking for and every time I’m asked to Rate. I’m gonna give you a one every time.
Perfect
This has been the most helpful resource for me. To monitor my mood and identify what parts need more attention. Huge help!!
Annoying and slow
The splash screen takes too long to open. Then it always makes an invasive suggestion. All I want when I open it is to listen to sleep sounds.
Frustrating
Every time I go on the app there are pop ups that I don’t want. This review comes up every single time, multiple times a day despite the fact that I have left reviews. The meditation selection is repetitive and there’s rarely new content for Jeff Warren. Calm health got rid of the feature to use soundscapes while meditating which is disappointing. I miss the regular Calm app.
