### 5/5 — Shoreline

*2021-04-15, version 1.0*

I love this App. The sounds are incredible and Meryl’s guided meditations are so enjoyable and calming. Just love it!! So relaxing and healing!

### 5/5 — Finding calm amidst the chaos

*2021-04-13, version 1.0*

Shoreline is an incredible collection of high quality nature recordings and accessible meditations. These are accessible for the beginning meditator (or beginning again) and the experienced practitioner. 

You’re invited to listen, to learn and to experience. Find more calm in your day through shorter meditations or shape your day with longer ones.

### 5/5 — Meditation that finally works!

*2021-04-12, version 1.0*

I have never been able to get into meditation due to the fact my mind never shuts off! The starter guide is so helpful to ease into it and the relaxing soundscapes are amazing. I actually feel like I’m on a beach or in the rainforest.

**Developer response:** Hi mmears09123, thank you so much for the review. That is amazing to hear! It means a lot to us and we hope you continue to enjoy the app. Please let us know if you have any more feedback or thoughts. All the best!

Easy to use, intuitive, straight to the good stuff. Great app for meditation and relaxation. Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Calming & Re-Centering

*2021-04-12, version 1.0*

Great app to tap back in to what’s needed to avoid burnout in a practical manner. Healthy dose of meditation and soundscapes to get me through the stressful, busy workday :) thanks!!

### 5/5 — Love it!!

*2021-04-12, version 1.0*

This app is so awesome!! I struggle to slow down and relax, and this app has helped me clear my mind and truly be present in the moment!! Love it!

### 5/5 — Look no further, this is your meditation app!

*2021-04-12, version 1.0*

This is by far the best meditation app I have found. The combination of sounds from nature and the guided meditations are absolutely perfect. I truly feel like I am present be it at the beach or in the woods, the sounds are incredible. 🏝🔥🏕

### 5/5 — Invest in YOU & get this app!

*2021-04-12, version 1.0*

Shoreline has just the right amount of unique soundscapes and guided medications. Meryl’s voice is soothing and just enough to keep you present. Other meditation apps seem go go overboard with talking or offering way too much content to choose from when I only have a certain amount of time to “drop-in.” Love it!

### 5/5 — WOW!!

*2021-04-12, version 1.0*

I cannot believe how immersive these soundscapes are. I tried my first without headphones and was still engulfed by the sounds. 
I typically meditate outside, but this allows me to be transported and add some variety to my listening! Can’t wait to experience more.

### 5/5 — Great for Meditation!

*2021-04-11, version 1.0*

I love this app! I’ve tried a few of the sounds and meditations and they’re all great!

### 5/5 — My favorite meditation app!

*2021-04-11, version 1.0*

I love the variety of meditations in this app, whether I just have 5 minutes to meditate or 20. Meryl is THE BEST at guided meditations and I love that the app makes it super easy to do an unguided meditation if I want as well. The nature sounds are beautiful and so calming. Love it!!!

### 5/5 — Be transported

*2021-04-11, version 1.0*

This app has the most incredible soundscapes! Listen with headphones and it’s almost like being transported to all the places we can’t go right now—the beach, a forest, by the side of a stream...couple that beautiful guided meditations by creator Meryl Arnett, and this is my new favorite meditation app! I’ve been craving the beach, and until I get to go, I can listen and be there.  Give a listen. You won’t be disappointed.

### 5/5 — Finally

*2021-04-11, version 1.0*

I’ve been looking for a mediation app like this for a long time. I’m not a huge fan of calm and headspace but I love meditating in nature. This hits the spot!

### 5/5 — Exceptional!

*2021-04-10, version 1.0*

The meditations and natural sounds here are UNPARALLELED! They at once transport you to other worlds while opening you to the beauty, depth, peace, and wildness of your inner landscape!

### 5/5 — Best for guided meditations

*2021-04-10, version 1.0*

If you are anything like me- you do best with some help guiding your meditation. Meryl Arnett does a wonderful job with her soothing voice. The soundscapes are incredible as well! Awesome find.

**Developer response:** We are glad you love Meryl's voice as much as we do. Thank you so much for the review! Please let us know if you have any other feedback, and we hope you continue to enjoy. All the best!

### 5/5 — Different from the Rest

*2021-04-10, version 1.0*

This is not just another meditation app with recycled sounds and recordings.  

The sounds are unique and authentic. So refreshing after having tried so many others. Will be using this every day. Awesome app.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the review! Please let us know if you have any other feedback, and we hope you continue to enjoy. All the best! - Clint and the Shoreline team

### 1/5 — Can’t subscribe

*2022-05-02, version 1.0.7*

The option for the in app purchase results in an error message for me! Would love to try the free trial. Oh well!

### 1/5 — One Star

*2022-04-30, version 1.0.7*

Because having to provide my information before being able to try the app is wrong. I don’t even know what I’m signing up for yet.

### 3/5 — Meh. Another app that just wants your $$$

*2022-05-15, version 1.0.7*

Save your time (and money) and go for a walk. Listen to a Spotify meditation playlist instead.

### 5/5 — I am in love!

*2022-10-31, version 1.0.8*

Hey there! I just found this app while looking for a way to calm my anxiety and let me tell you, this is hands down the best app that I've found! I am only two days using the program and it has already helped a lot! Though, I do not currently have premium, there is still so much on the app! My favorite part of the app is how good the sounds and meditations are! Thank you so much to the lovely people who made this app, It's really helping!

### 5/5 — Ok, I’m into it

*2022-03-21, version 1.0.6*

I wasn’t sure at first but I have found this app to be very useful in helping me sleep and also in becoming more mindful. Really amazed with the nature sounds in this app. I literally feel like I’m at the beach when I listen to the Hawaii waves... i have also enjoyed trying out the nature meditations. As someone who loves the outdoors it feels more genuine than other meditations app.

**Developer response:** Amazing. Thank you so much for the review! Please let us know if you have any other feedback, and we hope you continue to enjoy. All the best!

### 5/5 — I’m impressed

*2022-01-30, version 1.0.5*

I have several nature apps on my phone but I decided to give this a try since I’ve followed Gordon hemptons work for a while. This is an awesome collection of his work. I just tried one of the nature meditations and I liked the combination of the guidance and the ocean sounds.

### 5/5 — AMAZING!!

*2021-08-24, version 1.0.4*

### 5/5 — Best Meditation App I’ve Tried

*2021-07-18, version 1.0.4*

The soothing soundscapes and unique meditations in this app are such a powerful combination. I’m able to listen, soften, and fall deeper into meditation than with any other tools I’ve tried. The variety of meditations and different length options fit so well with my lifestyle, I’m able to keep up my practice. The soundscapes alone are just beautiful (and wonderful for spiritual work, especially if you’re interested in the natural elements). I’m already recommending this to friends and family and look forward to using it well into the future. So grateful!

### 5/5 — Excellent way to decompress

*2021-07-06, version 1.0.3*

My first experience with this app was to use it to promote return to sleep after my nightly 3 AM spontaneous sleep interruption.  Two thumbs up for the sound quality and concept. I was transported out of my landlocked room to water’s edge and my mind quieted quickly. Will definitely use this as a daytime routine also

### 5/5 — Life Changing Experience

*2021-05-25, version 1.0.2*

I downloaded the app never having meditated before and wanting to get into it. I was told about this app so I gave it a go. I used the guided meditation for assistance and it was so calming and relaxing I caught myself completely in-tune with my spirit and felt like it was an out of body experience. It was an amazing and rare experience and I had it for the first time with THIS APP! I completely dosed off afterwards !!! 5 STARS!!!
