Everyone should have this

The guides meditations and breathwork sessions in the app have really helped me with stress and given me more clarity

Best App on my Phone

By far the best app on my phone. Love the variety. Something for everyone it seems. And as someone with AuDHD, having a wide variety of options that I can add to playlists to return to allows me to balance my needs for novelty and familiarity. I was in the hospital earlier this year, listening to calming sounds and sleep stories from this app while there. It really was very comforting. I continue to use the music and nature tracks to help me sleep. And I also enjoy guided meditation and talks. I often recommend this app to my friends!

Wastes your time with forced engagement

Used to use this app daily. Then they started forcing engagement with questions and emotion check ins. These are obnoxious and time wasting. Only get this app if you want to lose time daily to a wellness corporation.

A Necessity

If there’s one app I’m ok with using very day, it’s this one. They’ve expanded tremendously with their offerings and still hold a fantastic standard.

Really pushy agenda makes the app terrible to use, wish that wasn’t the case

The app is incredibly frustrating to use due to its relentless efforts to categorize users, push them to set up schedules and goals whether they want to or not, and then shower them with unwanted screens asking them to say “I’m committed” and engage with the product every day. Once in a great while, I’ll use the app for something specific. But I almost don’t even want to try! The experience outside of the actual teaching is so bad for me. Check out other reviews to see what I mean. I would want to give the app 3 stars because I’ve benefited from it. But the fact that Insight Timer doesn’t listen to feedback and change their ways means I’m going to leave a 1 star review with the goal of having more impact on the overall rating.
