UPDATE, April 9, 2026 - The original Nova voice is back! Hurrah! Makes all the difference, to me, in the effectiveness of the guided meditations. Thank you for bringing it back!!!! UPDATE, April 4, 2026 I can’t use it. The voices are awful. 2 very young female voices. 2 old men voices where the quality changes. This is truly a disaster! The one female voice they originally had was perfect, at least for me. I’m just bummed that I can’t use it now; the magic is gone with the voice changes :-( UPDATE, April 3, 2026–Oh, no! There was an update. They took away Nova, the original voice and replaced it with 2 VERY YOUNG female voices. Young voices for me, an older person, do not hold any authority or conviction. The original voice was perfect. One of the reasons Hypnova worked for me was because of that voice; it engendered trust. Please put it back! UPDATE, March 19, 2026 — Listened to a few more guided meditations. Excellent and effective. 100% quality, apparently designed by people who really know what they are doing. The AI chat that would create a unique meditation for you is still not working. ———- March 12, 2026 — I just downloaded this today and did one meditation for weight loss. Wow! Powerful! Different in focus than usual meditations about weight loss. AND YOU CAN’T CREATE ANY CUSTOM MEDITATIONS. I emailed developer at the email on the website and it came back undelivered. I hope all this gets fixed. I love this app!

Response from developer
Hi Dawn,
Thank you for taking the time to share this, and I’m really sorry about your experience. You’re completely right, the voice matters a lot and we shouldn’t have removed something people were already connecting with.
We’ve been actively refining the app and didn’t handle this transition as carefully as we should have. We take full responsibility for that. The original voice will be coming back very soon, and the custom session feature will be working again as well. We’ll update you as soon as it’s live, but you can expect it within the next couple of days.
We also really appreciate what you shared about the different focus and approach. That’s something we care deeply about. We’ve built the sessions using a mix of techniques, including CBT-based methods, grounded in research and designed to genuinely help people.
Since you found us so early and took the time to share such thoughtful feedback, we’d really love to take care of you directly. If you’re open to it, please reach out at hypnova@zentient.ai and we’ll send you a code for additional personalized session time.
And truly, hearing from you means a lot. We’re really grateful you found the app and took the time to share this.
We really appreciate you being here early.
Kindly,
The Hypnova Team
