Great choice of meditations, love Iyanla’s wonderful voice, perfect tool for daily meditation, highly recommend.

### 2/5 — Iyanla great, App terrible

*2022-11-08, version 1.0.4*

Iyanla’s meditations start great, but then something happens when music starts as well and audio quality drops. Also, unlike other meditation apps, if you close the app the audio stops. 

Other reviewers had mentioned these problems but I hoped (mistakenly) that the devs would have fixed them by now, otherwise I wouldn’t have purchased. As of 11-8-22 these glitches are still a problem. Don’t buy this app. Get your meditations from Iyanla somewhere else. If the devs ever fix these issues I will update this review.
