### 2/5 — Fine app, uncomfortable AI usage

*2026-08-06, version 8.3.0*

The app works great but it can be really hard to enter a headspace of mindfulness when there is AI generated slop images are used during your practice. Very disappointing. At least give us the option to opt out of it.

### 5/5 — Longtime relationship ☺️

*2026-06-21, version 8.2.1*

A consistent part of my routine. I love all the Down Dog apps and have been with them almost 10 years.

### 5/5 — I love this app

*2026-06-20, version 8.2.1*

The app interface is beautiful, the selections have a variety of options, and it’s easy to follow along with the visual and audio instructions. 

This app is great for novice and experts who want to introduce more mindfulness into their everyday routines.

### 5/5 — Parfait !

*2026-06-18*

Possibilité de paramétrer les options pour avoir des séances adaptées à ses besoins 
Les sujets sont variés, les combinaisons de durée, thème, exercices permettent vraiment d’adapter la pratique à son niveau/son besoin 
Je suis super contente de cette application

### 5/5 — Bliss

*2026-06-18, version 8.2.1*

Been using DD for over 5 years now. Absolutely satisfied. Was a Headspace user prior but switched to this for dialed in options and reasonable cost.

### 5/5 — Wellness

*2026-06-17, version 8.2.1*

I don’t have a lot of time to do meditation but I’m finding that I can carve out time to tap onto the Down Dog app and take 15 minutes to meditate and be present. I really enjoy being able to make time and get guided meditation anywhere I can have my phone with WiFi.

### 5/5 — All around best app

*2026-06-17, version 8.2.1*

There are multiple meditation apps and programs out there. I love the Down Dog family of apps because I  have access to yoga and meditation. Both apps allow me to choose what is right for me in any given session and adapt to my needs over time. Loyal subscriber for over 5 years now. 💗

### 5/5 — Been using for years.

*2026-06-16, version 8.2.1*

Excellent guidance app for mental wellness

### 5/5 — A helpful app

*2026-06-12, version 8.2.0*

My physical therapist shared this app with me and I love it for meditation and sleep . I use the yoga on the go when I can't get to the gym.

### 5/5 — Reset the nervous system

*2026-05-30, version 8.1.7*

Thank you down dog!!!

### 5/5 — Excellent meditation app

*2026-05-25, version 8.1.6*

I use this app  every day and it is so great. Different themes, or no particular themes. I love that you can make longer meditations, I often use 45 minutes. There aren’t many apps that do that that I have seen. Most apps with guided meditations are only 10 minutes or so. Thanks for making a great app that soon became my favorite after needing longer sits. The only thing it’s missing is music alone for concentration or meditation.

### 5/5 — Fastest way to dissolve

*2026-05-24, version 8.1.6*

Update: below is my review from who knows when. But for now: It’s been a while since I’ve used this app. Many months, I’m sure. So I’d like to say this as an update to my review: the ease with with this app makes meditation accessible itself is a gift for those like me who fade in and out of the practice. I’m grateful for how
Simple it makes it to just begin again.  

Here is your doorway into oneness with the universe. Pause. Breath in. And breath out. This is your moment to just be exactly who you are as you are right now. There’s nowhere to be but here. There’s no time but now. Let yourself be guided by this app into stillness. 
Seems silly to try and convey the depth of relaxation and calm I experience from Downdog in a review for an app. But there it is. I fully recommend this to you wherever you are. This would be a gift to yourself.

### 5/5 — Customization and cheap

*2026-05-23, version 8.1.6*

You can tailor it to your liking. This comes with their yoga app too at a really reasonable annual price. (One subscription for both!)

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2026-05-22, version 8.1.6*

I absolutely love this app. I use the sleep meditation every night. It helps me set a routine and I sleep great.

### 5/5 — BEST Yoga App

*2026-05-14, version 8.1.4*

I started using DownDog in 2019, during the pandemic. I rarely ever used to do yoga and never really enjoyed it until I found DownDog. I love that you can practice any flow for as long or as little as you want, you can choose which areas of the body you want to focus on, and each time you get something different. The meditation and barre apps are just as great btw. 
DownDog has been a life changer for me and now part of my weekly workout routine. And that’s a lot coming from someone who used to say they don’t like yoga.

### 5/5 — скачивала для сна

*2026-05-07, version 8.1.3*

приложение супер, я брала для того чтоб быстрее засыпать и самое удивительное что это помогает😅
единственное что хотела отметить так это то, что нету мужского голоса, мне приятней мужской, но его не оказалась, а приложение настолько хорошее что решила так сказать смериться и не удалила

### 5/5 — Fabulous

*2026-05-05, version 8.1.3*

I've been using this app for several years. It never disappoints and gives me just what I need. I love the customization. I don't think I could have been consistent in my practice without it!

### 5/5 — Best app out there for meditation. No BS

*2026-05-05*

I love it

### 1/5 — Not good

*2026-08-12, version 8.3.0*

It used to be a really good app to use, but they don’t update any of their affirmations. It’s the same stuff.

### 1/5 — Money taken-no app!!

*2026-07-09, version 8.2.5*

This app has just taken £29.99 and it’s not even in my subscription . I want my money back and I’m furious about money being taken.

### 1/5 — New Update Drains Battery

*2026-03-22, version 8.0.6*

Used to LOVE this app but now every time I use the sleep meditation, it drains my battery to the point my phone shuts off and the alarm doesn’t go off in the morning.

### 1/5 — Share

*2025-05-05, version 7.5.2*

My only problem with this app I wish it would add more people. I’ve been listening to the same meditation for the last two years please update and change it.

### 1/5 — Türkçe Desteğinin Kaldırılması

*2025-04-11, version 7.5.2*

Düpedüz “biz Türk kullanıcıları önemsemiyoruz” deklarasyonudur..  prensip icabı bırakıyorum.

### 1/5 — Need a chime at the end

*2025-02-17, version 7.5.2*

The only thing missing from this is the ability to set a chime or a sound at the end of the meditation. Even better would be a random Djim at intervals, either set a few minutes apart or randomly in order to provide a quick second of focus. These would make the experience much more customizable.

### 1/5 — Funciona mal

*2024-11-11, version 7.4.0*

Funciona mal desde hace ya unos meses, se queda cargando al abrirla y no hay manera de entrar en la App. La he actualizado, apago el móvil , cierro el programa… y nada se queda cargando

### 1/5 — he perdido mi cuenta

*2024-11-03, version 7.4.0*

he perdido mi cuenta de todas las aplicaciones.

### 1/5 — Storytime or Meditation

*2024-09-28*

Love your other apps but when you try to squeeze in a long useless motivation story into my meditation time, even though i have selected “Least” guidance, is a ruiner of sessions. Please just focus on the meditating and leave the platitudes and stories to bad Instagram memes and motivational characters. It has nothing to do with meditation.

### 1/5 — A bit disappointing…..

*2024-07-13, version 7.3.9*

Not loving the guided meditations :(

*2026-07-20, version 8.2.5*

Lovely. I am particularly enjoying the Walking Meditations. It’s always uplifting. Get into it!

### 5/5 — Ótimos momentos com esse app!

*2026-07-14*

Muito simples, fácil de se concentrar e fazer uma boa meditação, trazendo bons momentos pro meu dia a dia! Super indico.

### 5/5 — App méditation

*2026-07-12*

La meilleure et de loin 👌☀️

### 5/5 — Génial_autre support un jour ?

*2026-07-09*

Cette application est vraiment super, ce serait top qu’elle existe sur un support déconnecté ( comme Morphée le fait) car c’est pour moi le seul point négatif de devoir utiliser le portable .

### 5/5 — Fantastic App

*2026-07-06, version 8.2.5*

The whole series of apps is pretty good and is great for quickly getting in a workout or movement or meditation. The meditation app is great for a variety of types of meditations and has really helped my practice, especially when least feeling like I want to or have a very busy mind/life!

### 5/5 — Mornings

*2026-07-03, version 8.2.5*

The Guided Breathing has been great for starting the day with clarity and energy. Super easy to set and follow!

### 5/5 — Лучшие медитации здесь

*2026-06-23, version 8.2.1*

Долго пользовался йогой. Недавно решил попробовать медитации пожалел, что раньше не пробовал. Эти медитации – шедевр, такой же шедевр, как формление медитаций - музыка, живые картины.
Спасибо вам за вашу работу над этим приложением!
