Best relaxation sleep app ever! Long time user
My kids and I discovered Andrew Johnson’s relaxation sleep apps almost 10 years ago and we’ve been using them ever since. He has the BEST, most relaxing voice. And his relaxation/sleep walk-through routine really helps. Thank you so much Andrew Johnson!
Can’t rate highly enough - 15 years and still a loyal customer
I was first recommended AJ, back in 2012 when I was in my early 30’s now some 15 years later I was looking to see if Andrew had released anything new, and I realised I had never written a review. What can I say…. Andrew’s mediations have been with me through the best and worse parts of my life.
From becoming a new parent, stressful job, insomnia,
Anxiety, loss of identity and confidence, stopping smoking, and all the highs that well outweigh the lows, even when I am feeling great, I still use the AJ meditations, it has become embedded in my daily schedule. AJ’s meditations do as their title says, listen to what he says, don’t worry if your mind wanders,
Meditation takes time,
Don’t give up and keep
Trying every night.

It really helped!
I found this very helpful, just being made aware of each part of the body in turn to relax it, I noticed tension is places I hadn’t before. I actually slept better than I had in ages, with a baby it’s not so much the length of time you sleep but the quality of it! So I’ll be using this a lot from now on.
Reading some of the reviews was interesting… I like the idea of being able to skip the intro, to have a timer on the wake function and to have the ability to adjust the volume of the background noise… sounds amazing!
Hypnotherapy isn’t for everyone agreed and I can see why some people could find parts of it patronising but it’s a little rude to imply if you find this app helpful you have no self respect! That’s just my opinion 🤗

Have been using for literally 16 years
Just figured I should rate this app after forever. I found this my sophomore year in high school, on the first edition of the galaxy phone no less, and have genuinely been using it ever since. It’s the only thing to get me through nights of insomnia. Despite having essentially the entire thing memorized (which helps too honestly), it works every time. Thank you so much, Andrew, for keeping this lifesaver cheap and without a damn subscription. I don’t know what I’d do without this app in my life atp. I’ll probably be listening to it forever.

Simple but great
I’ve used AJ’s apps for years off an on. I love that I can come back to them when I’m stressed or need help falling asleep. I’m sure it’s not everyone’s thing, but I’ve really enjoyed several of his apps over the years.
Thanks AJ and team.

Changes :(
This was the best app; 5 stars without a doubt & highly recommended. Recent changes have seen the sleep meditation reduced to 11 minutes, when it used to be 30-40 minutes. It was a nightly ritual for me & I’m sad it’s changed :(
I still recommend, it’s a great meditation!!

Andrew is Amazing. Works Every Time
I’ve recommended Andrew’s meditation so many times over the years. He has the best Scottish brogue. This app is super simple and that’s perfect for me. Lay in bed, listen to the sound of his voice and the background music and let all else go. Works every time.
Mislabeled title
Nice messaging with peaceful music. Almost ready to sleep then voice tells me at the count of eight to open my eyes. And at ten become fully aware of the room. No no no. I don’t want to open my eyes at all. I want to SLEEP! Very disappointed.
It’s the only thing that works for me
I listen to this sleep hypnosis every night to help me sleep. Nothing else works as well.
Loved this app as a teen
I used to use this app over 10 years ago because it would help me sleep as a stressed out student that was also going through personal issues. It was very effective and got me through what could have been many sleepless nights. Now I’m in grad school and have rediscovered it and it’s still great; however, you can no longer change the background music. I used to love the ocean waves track, but there is no option for that anymore which is disappointing. Still love the guided meditation but sad that this feature is gone.

Works without fail
I love this app. I used to have at least one or two days wide awake through the night, but a combination of this app and cutting coffee solved the problem.
More recently it has also helped my 8 year old son, who due to medication really struggled to sleep. Worked better than kids sleeping app stories.
Thank you

Needs a dark feature or a nighttime feature
I really love this app, but it being white is super bright especially if I restarted at night because something woke me up. I would give it a five star rating if it weren’t for the fact that there is no dark feature and the background is completely white. It can be quite jarring in the middle of the night and it can make it difficult to go back to sleep

Deep Sleep
Great app. I use it all the time.
The sound of my childhood
My mom started to use this app for me when I was around 5 I think. I am now living on my own at age 21 and still use it occasionally. So nostalgic for me and has always worked wonders. Thank you.
What happened to the wake function??
I’ve used this app for years, and it’s always helped. But since the last update two things have changed:
1) The background music is much louder, to the point where it can be distracting and actually make falling asleep more difficult.
2) The wake function no longer acts as an alarm clock. You used to be able to set a time for it to wake you up, and Andrew’s instructions used to take a while to wake you gently. Now they run as soon as the deep sleep part is over, and are rushed through in just a couple of minutes.
Simply put, it’s nowhere near as good as it was before the last update.

Where did the option for delayed wake go?
This is an incredible app that works better than ANYTHING I’ve tried. The biggest downside is the last time it was updated, the option for a delayed wake disappeared.
Also, the option to skip through instructions is gone along with a large portion of the muscle relaxation.
Please bring back the old version.

Foolproof
I’ve literally had this app for 12 going on 13 years and it’s absolutely foolproof. Such a valuable sleep tool.
Works every time
Whenever I’m away from home and husband, I have difficulty falling asleep and and this recording is my lifesaver. If you find it doesn’t work the first few times, it’s worth persisting by using it nightly as AJ advises. It really does become more effective the more you use it.
I particularly appreciate the fact that the imagery is fairly neutral - no going down wells or staircases!

too good
I’ve always struggled with sleeping but using this app puts me right to bed. I’ve been using Andrew’s apps for years now and they’re all fantastic. I just want to hear how this track ends cos I swear I’ve never stayed awake through the whole thing. Thank you Andrew :)
Could not be better! Amazing!
I’ve been listening to this for almost a decade. It’s by far the best one I’ve ever tried. To this day, I haven’t been able to listen to the entire thing, I’m asleep before that happens!!!
