Super annoying. Plus after I make in app purchases your buy everything should reduce in price. Just like on iTunes. ### 4/5 — Great way to relax *2014-05-24, version 1.300* You can choose to awake or sleep after the session. ### 2/5 — Miss *2013-09-07, version 1.300* Please make an option to turn off the music - it's incredibly distracting to what could otherwise be a good session. ### 5/5 — Best dreaming app I have found! *2013-03-13, version 1.099* I have seriously been using this app for many months now. And even though I almost always fall asleep about two thirds of the way through it, I must admit that my dreams are way more lucid and clear and I totally remember them more. Plus, it really does hope you fall asleep if you're having troubles with insomnia or something. Just put this app on! ### 4/5 — Lucid dreaming *2013-03-13, version 1.099* Enjoy. ### 2/5 — Did nothing for me *2013-03-06, version 1.099* Title says it all. Maybe it has to do with the fact that I've never been able to become hypnotized, but I was perfectly awake for the whole thing. All three sessions I tried over the course of 3 days were complete busts. ### 5/5 — Sleeping like a baby *2013-03-04, version 1.099* This program has given me my nights back. ### 5/5 — Works *2013-02-24, version 1.099* I seem to get a better night sleep ### 5/5 — Works very well *2013-02-21, version 1.099* I am a vet This program really puts me to sleep Can't afford anymore though Wish I could get it to stop nagging for a review over and over and over ### 5/5 — I use it EVERY day! Changed my life!! *2013-02-21, version 1.099* I'm SO GRATEFUL for this app! I've suffered from Chronic Insomnia for over 20 years, & have tried everything under the sun...sleep studies, pills, eating turkey, alcohol, anything I thought would help me sleep. I downloaded this app at 5:30am, feeling hopeless. To make a long story short, this app has changed my life! Now I sleep EVERY day!! (I would sometimes go up to 5 days without sleep, & I don't use drugs) I use this app to sleep, not for the dreams, though I have had a few that stand out. I've never been able to stay awake to hear the end of it!! The new update makes it so you can change/adjust the background sounds/music, which helped even more. The only minor complaint is, that I get into a really deep sleep, and then he starts talking at one point, and it wakes me back up, cuz the volume is louder than when he starts at the beginning...BUT, I fall right back asleep. I know this is a long review, but if you've read the whole thing, and you're looking for an honest app to help you sleep, you have to try this one. Give it a week, you will love it...I do!! It's now a must-have for me, every single day! Thank you to the creators for this, it's changed my life! I'm no longer a walking zombie, now that I can sleep!!! :D ### 5/5 — Cynthia *2013-02-18, version 1.099* Amazing app!!!!!! I now have amazing dreams and sleep so much better. ### 2/5 — Nightmares galore *2013-02-15, version 1.099* I do have another app with the same guy talking which I use a lot. It's on past life regression and I love that app. For some reason though everytime I listen to this app, I see a specific dark shadow always and he haunts me in my dreams and I always have extremely vivid nightmares when I listen to this app. Too scared to try it again. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Probably a virus *2022-10-21, version 2.2* When I downloaded this I thought it was legit, but I left my AirPods in and I got a text. The text to speech was a horrible text to speech and not Siri and when I deleted the app the text to speech changed back to siri ### 1/5 — Options *2022-05-30, version 2.2* I ### 1/5 — Can’t get purchases on iPad *2018-03-19, version 1.605* I paid for 20 of these in-app purchases. They don’t transfer over to my iPad. I wrote support still waiting to hear back. I should be able to use what I paid for across all my apple products. I don’t get it. ### 1/5 — Buyer beware *2015-05-18, version 1.400* No only are the in-app purchases no longer accessible, some are more expensive than they are when you purchase individually from the App Store! Since the RESTORE function within this update does NOT work, the purchases are USELESS! Seriously consider a different app...😡 ### 1/5 — Lucid dreaming *2013-11-05, version 1.300* Don't waste your money, complete waste of time .. And it Contradicts itself on breathing asks you slows to take a slow deep breath in and then jumps telling you to hold exhale before you have a chance to breath in font waste your money. ### 1/5 — Whattheheck1224098765 *2013-09-17, version 1.300* Way too much reverb on voice. Hard to relax ... Distracting. Might try another session but so far not impressed with 1st session. Find the phrasing of some sentences annoying. ### 1/5 — Hated it *2013-02-14, version 1.098* The way he talks, his rhythm & delivery, are terrible. I couldn't get past it. Too bad you can't listen to a 10 second sample before buying. Or, conversely, get a refund. ### 1/5 — Really? Great idea but needs crucial improvements *2011-11-29, version 1.090* The long induction has the right idea in that he has you "go down twenty stairs", great idea. I was perched at the top of my beautiful mental spiral staircase and I had a pretty vivid sense of it and he has you take one step, slow, nice, but he rattles on in slo mo for wayyy too long. Who spends fifteen or twenty secs on a step before moving down to the next? Wayyyy too drawn out. Im pretty patient with hypnosis but this was killing me. So I decided to try short intro. He truly sounds like he just had a quad shot before reading this script. He's talking as fast as my teenage daughter after a really exciting day at school. This is supposed to get me in a meditative state??? I am bewildered by the reviews. I usually agree pretty much with consensus on hypno app reviews but not this time. if I'm stopping the recording to create this review at 12:15 am, this is not a good sign. Great idea but PLEASE fix intro!!! Hypnosis should be a balm. It should NOT be so trying on the nerves. If took took sleeping pills and was getting a massage while listening, I might be able to survive and "sleep" through the intro. Then again, with those I might sleep through fingernails down a chalkboard or a hurricane. Lol. Still, I love u guys for trying. Im hoping to find more lucid dream hypno apps or improvememts to this one. Maybe try chamomile tea before reading instead of caffeine? Pleeease try again. <3 :-D ### 1/5 — Robbery *2011-08-13, version 1.07* This hypnosis session doesn't have a single word on lucid dream, it's an induction to be relaxed than music... you should be ashamed erick brown... very low level ### 2/5 — What happened? *2017-12-20, version 1.605* I have used this app for years and it used to work but somewhere, somehow parts of it are no longer there. My iPad and all apps are up to date. The long induction is 21ish minutes then the next part is 2.5ish minutes then nothing. The woman in the stream and color red, parts I remember, are gone. Fix the issue and I will leave a wonderful review. Thank you ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Used for years *2023-01-15, version 2.2* I’ve been using this app on my phone for years. It is the best app that I have used for sleep. I know that it is labeled lucid dreaming but I only stay awake 5 to 10 minutes and then I’m out. I use it every night. ### 5/5 — Really makes a difference *2019-01-27, version 1.605* I really love this app, the voice of Eric Brown is very relaxing, I am not new to hypnosis, as my uncle founded the North Anerican Institute of hypnosis many years ago and he helped me at a time when things were getting in the way of my concentration. The one thing I would like to see in this app is the abblity to retain the play list items, as it is a little irritating to have to edit this every time I play it. ### 5/5 — Wonderful. Highest Possible Recommendation. *2016-06-21, version 1.605* I have been using this app for a few years now, and have been put to sleep by him every time. Through the add-on packs, I've changed several things in my life thanks in large part to the post-hypnotic suggestions. Buy this app! You won't be sorry! ### 5/5 — Love *2015-04-18, version 1.400* My daughter and I love this! ### 5/5 — Vivid dreams / good intro to meditation *2015-03-01, version 1.400* I started using this app when I was having a lot of trouble sleeping because I changed my habits before bed. I used to lucid dream as a child, and have unlocked my subconscious with this app hence opening up opportunities in my waking reality. Not only is this app relaxing, it's a gateway to guided meditation, and amazing dreams. I don't like to fall asleep without this, I get much better deep sleep. Amazing! 💚💚💚 ### 5/5 — Great app *2015-02-27, version 1.400* Very effective. Help yourself to heathy life! ### 5/5 — Out like a log *2014-10-18, version 1.400* This works great ### 5/5 — I love it! *2014-02-28, version 1.300* Great app! Also has a full library of other hypnosis tracks. ### 5/5 — Amazing!! *2013-03-27, version 1.099* This app is amazing. Every time i listen to it i feel so so relaxed and peaceful it truly is amazing ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2013-03-15, version 1.099* Ive tried tons of them, and this is Seriously the best hypnosis app in the world. You'll love it! ❤❤❤❤ --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
