I'm a first timer and just learning to meditate. I'm also very skeptical and "type-A". This app has made a huge difference in how I feel after a very short time. I'm a believer now. ### 5/5 — great app *2016-04-05, version 3.2* The four guided meditations in this app help you learn to let go and take whatever is going on right now as it comes. I like the non-judgmental approach, and the peaceful music is great. The instructions and support pages are clear and helpful. I also appreciate that this app is fully accessible with VoiceOver. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2016-03-31* I am such a better person by following the steps in mediation without borders. More calm in tense situations and have noticed improvement in my patience level. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2016-03-29* Mary's voice is mellifluous! It's hard not to fall asleep but the guided meditations have been one of the key strategies for managing anxiety and stress - more recently after the birth of my first child. I've found each session has helped in its own way. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2015-10-27* I like the mix of the music and the meditations. You can choose to control the volume on both the voice and the music. The guided meditations are terrific. ### 5/5 — Very Satisfied *2015-08-18* I'm new to meditation, and this app has given me a common-sense lesson in how to meditate. The voice guide and music is very peaceful and relaxing. This app is worth a try! ### 5/5 — Very useful app *2015-05-06* The voice is calming and relaxing, the music is beautiful, and the focus on ease of experience helps release anxiety around meditation. After about three weeks I found myself calmer and more focused throughout the day. ### 5/5 — Simple and effective *2015-03-02* I feel meditation has been the worlds worst secret that still isn't utilised by enough people. This app is worth its weight in gold for anyone who is keen to meditate. I feel better everyday. It's simple and gets to the point. ### 5/5 — A little bit of calm... *2015-02-26, version 3.2* I love this app. After numerous failed attempts to start a meditation program, I've been able to stick with this one. I love the choice of music, the support that is offered, and the customizability. Their gentle approach to meditation helped me make peace with the process and enjoy my practice much more. I also recommend their other apps - the bundle is full of great apps that compliment each other nicely. ### 5/5 — Been so helpful *2015-02-18* I had listened to a number of podcasts which were great so went ahead and got 8 in a bundle of which this app is one. Have not mediated before. Very happy with them. I can feel anxiety lessening. Many thx ### 5/5 — Perfect! *2015-02-01* The music is just right for me. The gentle instructions really help me to ease into meditation. The reassurance that my thinking during meditation is not unusual is helpful too. Recommend to anyone. ### 5/5 — Best meditation apps! *2014-07-14* This course is wonderful but I also recommend EVERYTHING that meditation oasis has! I love her voice and how this meditation deeply grounds me everytime I liste n! 100% recommend! ### 5/5 — Does what it says. *2014-06-27* App works just as advertised. I enjoyed the program and found it very useful as it helped me settle and sit through a sustained meditation. The structure of the program helped too, and helped me make time for daily sitting. ### 5/5 — Truly delightful intro to meditation *2014-06-01* I am new to meditation and gravitated to this app. Without reservations, I am completely satisfied with the approach, pacing, simplicity, and features in this app. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2014-02-06* I've tried other meditation apps, but this is the best by far at helping learn to meditate and in making meditation part of your daily routine. Highly recommended. ### 5/5 — Fantastic Intro to Meditation *2013-12-07, version 2.4* This app has allowed me to learn about the different types of meditations. The course structures them as breath awareness, body awareness, flowing with thoughts, and letting go of effort. The last two are basically the same in guiding users to "simply be." Because of this app, I've learned to view meditation as a lifestyle as opposed to a hobby. Amazing app! ### 5/5 — Love this app *2013-10-22* This is my first app review. This app is great. Each week you learn a different meditation skill. I find I go back to week two frequently, I enjoy that meditation the most. Simple techniques I'm sure you'll enjoy. ### 5/5 — Try it - it's so good *2013-08-18* Anything from Meditation Oasis is the real thing - simple, uncomplicated, authentic guidance - the secret entry into meditation. Simply meditation. Simply healing and restoring. Just be. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Would be nice if it worked *2017-11-03, version 3.3* The primary app to help you learn to meditate doesn't even play. Pressed play about a hundred times. Still nothing. Restart, nothing. Re download, nothing. Good thing I paid money. ### 1/5 — Waste if money *2011-10-07* Such a waste of money, is ok but there are other meditation apps that are just as good if not better and they are either free or only cost 99 cents. I really annoyed for wasting my money to be honest ### 3/5 — Good but pricey *2010-10-14* For 9.99$ I was expecting more than those few meditations and little texts. I'd recommended getting their podcasts or getting all other apps instead. Apart from the price, it is a good class and worked well for me. Recommended if you don't mind the price. ### 4/5 — Great meditation app *2013-05-10* Very easy to follow, clear instructions, four week course which sets you on the path to regular meditation ### 4/5 — Guide in your pocket *2013-04-01* What a great app. It's so easy and convenient to be taught an guided through every step of meditation. The voice support is like having your very own yogi in your pocket. ### 4/5 — Pretty darn good *2013-03-03* It is what it is, I wish it rang bells every 5 minutes but I suppose that defers the purpose ### 4/5 — great app *2011-03-17* this is a really great app ,but it as some problem with the index paging and the program gets stuck on the index page and the only way to get around it is to reinstall app ### 5/5 — Awesom *2023-01-08, version 3.50* Awesome app ### 5/5 — Wonderful, but… *2022-11-20* Super easy quality meditation guidance, but suddenly two weeks ago all the graphics are blacked out and can only see a ghostly appearance of them on my ipad. Tried reinstalling, to no avail, all other apps OK on my ipad. ### 5/5 — Amazing meditation sessions *2021-02-14, version 3.41* I’ve used all the big name meditation apps and am incredibly impressed by this one. Some of the best instruction I’ve ever encountered. It is very calming, and the instructions are more true to how a guided meditation should be. I actually felt happier afterwards which is rare. Usually calm is what I get from other apps. But I actually felt more happy with myself and the world after each session. ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Beautiful *2018-04-16* Just listened to the first guided meditation . I feel relaxed and rejuvenated ### 5/5 — Happy as a clam. *2018-04-01, version 3.3* Actually, I don't know if clams are happy. But i know that I like this app even though, oddly enough, I am a long-experienced meditator. The guide's comments make me smile in recognition, and I like the interface and music, to boot. Update: now I'm happier than a clam. This ap has become a daily companion for weeks now. I really appreciate it. Second update: clams now seem dour, by comparison. I have used this for months and like it even more now than I did when i first reviewed it. Third update: bless the clams, and guide them gently to serenity. I have apparently owned this for over a year now and still use it regularly. Indeed, it comes out when I'm getting tired and need a quick recharge. Like a few minutes ago. After working for hours. Fourth update: By now I've owned this for several years, and still use it often. My meditation practice has continued to grow, to the point that I once (but only once, so far) actually reached the first Jhana ... although I'm not sure I spelled that correctly, and no clam can tell me! Yet, I still like and use this app. to get refreshed. The narrator seems a splendid guide. ### 5/5 — Excellent! *2018-02-10* Just what I needed to get started!! ### 5/5 — My favorite *2017-10-23, version 3.3* This was one of my all time favorite apps. I used it for years. Literally. It put me on the path to real meditation. Not self help but true meditation. Unfortunately the app stopped working about 3 months ago. I downloaded it again. Yes paid again. Yes. This app is that good and it still would not work. Sad face. If you download this and it works you will be ver happy! ### 5/5 — Excellent introduction to meditation *2017-09-01, version 3.3* This app is a great resource to learn to meditate. ### 5/5 — Meditation Oasis *2017-08-05* I have been listening to Meditation Oasis podcasts for years. When I discovered their range of apps, I purchased the bundle and have not been disappointed. My sister has recently decided to start a meditation practice and asked for beginners advice. RIchard and Mary's learning app is where I sent her to start with. And I'm glad I did ! ### 5/5 — So far so good! *2017-06-06* So far so good. Helps to calm my heart rate and be relaxed. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
