User reviews

Timer

Came here because the MUSE soundscapes were so good, so to me the timer with signals+background is easily the best feature of the app.

It would be nice to be able to use this feature offline. I don’t really see why we shouldn’t be able to.

Also, it took me weeks to discover this feature, as the tab sometimes takes you to the notifications page erroneously.

Gratitude

The sound wave technology has been a great way to view that which is actually there,and its ability to help expand contemplation, while also helping understand what can be achieved.

Tracks have skipping

Idk what happened- an update or whatever but the timed tracks now have skip/repeat pauses. Please fix it! It’s very distracting.

Feature request

I use this app regularly, & I love it! I would love to see more unguided meditations. I would also like to request integration into smartwatch Health apps! I’d like to be able to include my meditations with this app in my meditation tracker & also have capability with the Welltory app. Unfortunately, they can’t use the Expand app as a source because the Expand app does not have Health app capabilities.
