### 1/5 — Bugs never fixed; waste of money

*2025-05-05, version 4.2.0*

There’s a common issue with the login thats been occurring since last year. You’re forced to choose a subscription, and they will indeed collect their coin but you will not receive the service. Once you login and choose a subscription you get stuck on the page that prompts you to choose a subscription. I literally do not know any features on this app anymore. I remember when it was free and had free features. I think incorporating that again can fix the bug issues. It’s very disappointing because I wanted to support a black business and I feel robbed of my money because I never received the service I paid for.

### 4/5 — Love this app but I want more activities

*2025-03-17, version 4.2.0*

I love this app and this app really had helped me! 

On the other hand, I would love to see more within this app such as activities and rewards. For example, there should be a journaling activity, mental health workshops, or even a cute merch store. Also, there should be a reward system if you made it to a milestone streak or was very consistent using this app.

### 5/5 — The hunka of the hunkiest people is a true legend

*2025-02-02, version 4.2.0*

I can’t imagine I deserve credit but I do

### 5/5 — LOVE IT!

*2024-12-10, version 4.2.0*

So proud of what my team and I have created! This is a place for us.💫

### 2/5 — Exhale, well made but a dog whistle.

*2024-10-13, version 4.2.0*

Let’s be frank, if this were made for any other specific group, cries of injustice would be heard non stop. It is insulting, as a part of the targeted group, that services like this exist. I just don’t agree with the obvious dog whistle. 

Now that that is over with, do we really need an app like this? Not really, there are many far less expensive options available. This merely capitalizes on identity politics and those that are motivated by it. 

The app is well made and it does exactly as it advertises. User interface is thoughtfully made, but again, there are so many options out there that service the metal health conscience.

### 1/5 — What happened to modern black folks?

*2024-08-23*

Imagine if this was an app marketed for white women. Sisters, I grew up in the south going on 40 years ago. I was one of two black girls at my school. I know what racism looks like and 21st century US/UK is incredibly, overwhelmingly egalitarian and antiracist. Stop letting people sell you oppression with this sort of nonsense. You don’t need some special app that understands the unique “struggle” of being a black woman. Stop thinking other people aren’t going through the same sorts of trials and tribulations we go through. Every person is fighting a battle, wrestling with some pain or trauma. We are not special in this regard. Sorry to the developer, I’m sure you put thought into this app and you genuinely believe this sort of stuff they taught you in college but it just isn’t reality. I know I won’t convince you of this because financially and ideologically you are bound to this notion of systemic oppression of women of color, but these sorts of apps/agendas cause more racial division. Stop focusing on the color of our skin and let’s get back to judging one another solely on the content of our character. Now, if you really want an app that helps black women succeed, create an app that teaches us to get married, stop having children out of wedlock, and how to be financially literate. It’s not me being facetious. If every black woman knew that, we’d be out of poverty in a single generation.

### 5/5 — Excellent tool for wellness

*2024-03-25, version 4.0.2*

The thing about the Exhale App is I truly did not realize how much I needed it until I started using it. The look and feel, the gentleness of the prompts, the quality of the content-- all of that made me feel incredibly grounded and held. 
As a busy primary care physician, it's been hard to find time for self-care-- the Exhale app helps me to actually invest in some self-care with the approach of using short modules (5-10 min) to engage listeners.  
I've gone from being someone who did nothing at all, to now doing the deep breathing and meditation exercises at least every other morning. So excited by what the team has created and the love they've shown to us Black women users; I can't wait to share it with my colleagues and patients.

### 1/5 — Pagan Spiritualism/ Corny

*2023-10-03, version 3.0.7*

This app offers a variety of paths within Pagan Spiritualism, often veiled by the facade of New Age self-improvement and inner reflection. However, it's important to note that spiritualism alone may not provide profound growth beyond the realm of self-indulgence. I caution those who consider using this app as a means to enhance their lives.

It's vital to recognize that elevating oneself to the status of an idol can be one of the greatest pitfalls one faces. True redemption, for many, is found through a connection with Christ.

Additionally, it's worth acknowledging that this app caters primarily to a specific audience. Some may find it amusing that anyone with self-respect might take offense.

### 3/5 — No access

*2023-09-02, version 3.0.6*

I’ve had this app for at least 2 years, and it used to be perfect! But now I can’t access the site. It keeps telling me it’s sending an access code, but it never comes. This is sad, Because I REALLY enjoy the content. Once this issue is fixed, I’ll definitely be back.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2023-03-26, version 2.0*

This app has helped me in my journey for self healing! I downloaded this app a year ago, and I just stared using! I love that this app is geared toward POC!!! Kudos to all who are responsible in making this app! U all r truly healing minds and hearts- speaking from experience!!! Thank u!!!
