Great app until recently…

This app had genuinely assisted in combating my anxiety and depression. The daily breathing exercises, meditations and journaling have been very helpful in helping me grow along my mental health journey.

Normally I would rate an app like this 5/5…but over the past couple months I have not been able to access it due to a bug in the system :(.
An update hasn’t been done in years and I’m really hoping the problem gets resolved soon!

Um what??

Literally two days and I’ve noticed a difference. Even on the first day, I noticed one. I have really bad insomnia, but I slept completely last night, and probably will tonight too. My overthinking disappeared, and the sleep feature knocked me out. All of this, FOR FREE!! So much you can get without a membership on this app. Will be using this for the rest of my life. ✌️

Kills phone battery

I used this for a sleep meditation, so I fell asleep. The app seems great, but then you can’t keep listening to the meditation without you phone unlocked. Then if you fall asleep it also prevents the automatic phone lock from working. I woke up to my phone still lit up from 8 hours earlier and my battery almost depleted. Not really the ideal….

Love the app, but needs some speed improvements

This app is great, and so good for my mental health — I've recommended it to countless people.

The one issue I’ve been having for months is that the app takes up to a minute to open. This is super irritating and frustrating especially when trying to access a tool that is supposed to help keep you calm! Is there any plan to fix this? I cancelled my paid membership because of it.

Amazing must have app!!

I have a arsenal of tools to piled up from going to psychiatrist and therapy for over 30 years. There will always be a time you hit a wall, sometimes it’s easy to climb over it and sometimes you get stuck and don’t know if you will be able to walk let alone climb your way out of bed. I used this app for 1 day and I’ve felt more weight lifted off of me,more happiness and gratitude and confidence than I have in over a year!! This app is a blessing for me,please keep up the good work and helping others!!!

We are so happy you're enjoying the app :)

Good app needs refresh

This app is a great way for me to start my day. It allows me to check in with myself and set a good intention for the day. However, i’ve been doing it for a while, so it gets repetitive after a while. It needs updating with new quotes in the middle and new quotes at the end. Please refresh.

keeps me centered

I’m really enjoying this app. I find that it helps me stay centered and The affirmations are very helpful-It’s helped me to realize that I do have power in my thought patterns. But if I can adjust my thought patterns and pay attention to my modes of thought , i may be able to better align with my goals-It’s been very helpful in my journey of self empowerment and development-i tend to be critical of myself and this is helping me with that. -Thank you so much for creating this app. Blessings

Soothing new content.

I’ve been relaxing through my stressed out workday by having some of these longer meditations on repeat in the background. Specifically the new beginner series has made learning to meditate very easy. Go check out the Frank Vogt series for beginners it’s great. And there’s some awesome stuff from dr sop about New Years resolutions and I feel better already.

Gorgeous app for improving self-care

This is the only app review I’ve ever written, but I was feeling compelled to express my love for this app. I discovered it about 1.5 years ago when I was in the throes of depression following a painful separation. My self-care was so inconsistent. The “daily happiness workouts” have been such a blessing for me in terms of introducing a truly wonderful, well-rounded habit. I love that if I commit 10min to doing this in the morning, the app will nudge me through all the techniques associated will living more joyfully: deep breathing, checking in with my emotions, journaling, gratitude, goal setting, etc. It’s all designed so elegantly and I can honestly say that I noticed a shift after doing this for several weeks; the gratitude practice alone was worth the time. I am also so impressed with the wonderful library of content and enjoy exploring - especially when I’m having an off day. Great job Happy Not Perfect team!

We are so happy you're enjoying Happy Not Perfect! Taking care of your mental health is so important, keep up the good work :)

I loved it until

I loved the app until they started charging you to use the basic features of the app. I honestly decided to delete it once I logged onto the app to try to do my Happiness Workout just to find that if I wanted to do that, I would now be charged monthly $10. As much as I do love the app and I believe that it helped, I’m not willing to pay $120/year for something that I only use when I’m having a particularly rough moment/time. If you’re willing to pay for it, do it, it’s a great app but there are other alternatives out there that you don’t have to pay for.

Hello, We're sorry about that! We have to charge to be able to pay our team and content creators as we continue to grow. But please check out our instagram for news on special promotions :)

Need more new content

I love your application and I do meditation everyday. But I found out that your sessions and the daily dose are always the same. I hope you can improve this issue, doesn't make sense if I listen the same advise everyday, specially if you pay every month. Thank you. Namaste 🙏🏻

Love this

I enjoy this app, the writing prompts everyday and acknowledging my emotions is such a good quick exercise. I do wish there were more positive words under the feelings list, seems that the negative feelings over power. Also I feel like what you get for paying the monthly fee vs what you get for free are about the same.

First meditation app that I use regularly

I am generally anxious and terrible at meditating even though I know it’s good for me. This is the first app that I’ve stuck with in a routine and I’ve tried quite a few. I really do feel better for it. Highly recommended for reluctant meditators!

Great app but less "free" than before

I've had this app for a while now (years). It's a stellar app.

The 'happiness workout' that used to just be a small reprieve in my hectic day costs money now. It used to be free. I only noticed it happened when covid happened so it seemed like a greedy move though it could be for any reason really.

You still have access to most of the tools of the happiness workout for free but the meditations for this part of the app have been locked. They have other basic, free meditations you can use which are great still but the 'happiness workout' just set them apart from the rest of the apps. This change made me sad.

I have used the app as a paid member and free member and didn't find I was using it enough to pay for it. If you can pay the 60 or so dollars a year for the app, and actually use it more than I was, then you're getting a very solid meditation app.

What I needed❤️

Just got this yesterday after seeing an article in one of my fashion magazines about it. I have used it twice and it has already helped me a million times more than other apps I have spent money on. Sometimes I don't need to meditate; I need to express how Im feeling, burn bad thoughts and just get the junk out and this helps me do that. Seeing all the options reminds me that I'm human and not the only one having off days. I love it.

Loved it at first

I loved this app when I first found it but it doesn’t have enough content. My goal is to use it several times a week and the content isn’t new or updated in the 9 months I’ve been using it. So each time I open or listen I hear the same. It would be fantastic if they had a year of u inquest content. If they had more it would be a five star app.

LOVE IT. One request...

Love this app. I met Poppy Jamie in person and her dedication to making this the perfect app for meditation was evident in every word she spoke about it. My only ask is that the first bit of the happiness workout have more positive emotions! I think a huge part of any healing/meditative process is recognizing and rewarding good feelings. Thanks for an amazing user experience!

Great app for mental hygiene

I love the quickness of it. When I only have a minute at work, I can choose to deep breathe for 30 seconds while looking at a visual like a happy face ballon and hear beautiful relaxing music- or opt for a longer meditation. I like how I can pick a feeling, and then journal about it and do a gratitude list which helps especially if I’m struggling- daily doses are great and the whole app is user friendly and finally, I love the positive sayings that I can save to my photos and send to friends. Good job with this one!!!

My favorite and I've used a lot of these kinds of apps

I have a lot of things I'm dealing with and this is pretty much the only mediation I'm willing to go to on a bad day. I love the 'happiness workout' it somehow makes the whole thing of meditating everyday feel less a chore. And the large majority of meditations they offer just genuinely make me feel happier. As opposed to some other meditations on other apps that come across like lectures or religious dogma or insincere, any of which tend to annoy me, personally.
Also this introduced me to 'tapping'! Which is super super helpful for me.
