## What is iSleep Easy?

“As a nurse I have told my patients about this wonderful option for insomnia!” (Review) -- Drift off to sleep and sleep more deeply with a wide variety of guided meditations. Create your own sleep program using a Playlist feature which allows you to listen to up to six meditations in one session. Listen voice alone or voice with music or nature sounds, choosing how long the background will continue after the voice guidance stops. If you prefer to listen to music or nature sounds alone, a Sound Mix feature allows you to listen to a combination of music plus a nature sound, or two nature sounds together. 

“This beats any chemical sleep aids hands down.” (Review)

Recommended by USA Today, CNN, Cosmopolitan and The Sleep Revolution book.

### 5/5 — Simply awesome

*2022-11-08, version 6.40*

I can’t believe I’ve been using Mary’s voice to relax.  Has to be over 10 years now.  I drifted away from her to other sleep/relax meditations… but none ever measured up to her .  Her voice just knows how to relax your mind and body!

### 5/5 — Best sleep app.

*2022-10-07, version 6.40*

I use the sleep meditation part of this app, the darkness meditation one is awesome. The person who reads this has a very relaxing voice. Best app i have used.10 out of 10.😍😌💕😴

### 5/5 — Best app out there

*2022-06-19, version 6.40*

I can’t even say how many years I’ve been using this app for. I love the combinations of sounds with custom volume levels. I’ve tried other apps but none are as good!

### 5/5 — I have gone through all the newer and this one is best

*2022-04-04, version 6.40*

Every other app wants my name, birthdate etc.  dude I just want to relax and sleep… you don’t need my bios for that .  Great app!   This is my favorite

### 5/5 — Time remaining clock

*2022-02-06, version 6.40*

Can you guys add back in the time elapsed/ remaining clock? Also how long total each meditation is…

Thanks!

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2021-10-16, version 6.40*

Honestly the only thing I’ve found that not only gets me to sleep but also seems to enable me to stay asleep longer or at least get straight back to sleep if I do wake in the night (which I do every single night 3.30am without fail).  Can’t recommend it highly enough - way better than medicine !!

### 5/5 — Still Amazing

*2021-09-20, version 6.40*

I have used this app for years and it is still amazing. There are newer apps out there and this is still my favourite.

### 5/5 — Soothing!

*2021-08-09, version 6.40*

I’ve put together my own play track and it’s really soothing, such a relaxing voice and I love the rain sound.

### 5/5 — Excellent guided meditations

*2021-07-22, version 6.30*

Very effective and helpful

### 5/5 — Magnificent

*2021-06-25, version 6.30*

I love this app so much that I highly depend on it! I can’t sleep without it. Even if I wake up in the middle of the night. I start it over again and it carries on for another two hours. I highly recommend it. I’ve even suggested it to everyone I know. Ive also used it for about six years now. Download it.....NOW!
