This is particularly true on the “Ten Minutes to Peace” meditation. It sounds like there is static in the background. If the audio is fixed in a future update, I will change my review to 5 stars. ### 5/5 — I just love her *2021-07-05, version 1.0.4* Between this up and the meditations up I can say that I feel more in tune with myself, more grounded, more focused, and just excited about life. You absolutely will not regret purchasing this app or the awakenings app. Invest in yourself! ### 5/5 — Excellent App! *2021-06-10, version 1.0.4* This app is excellent!!! ### 5/5 — Thank you, Iyanla *2021-05-13, version 1.0.4* Thank you for this app. It helps me through my days and nights. ### 5/5 — APP KEEPS CLOSING *2021-05-05, version 1.0.4* 5 min into listening the app closed and when I tried to re open the app, it automatically closes EVERY TIME! After reading the reviews I saw a complaint since Nov. 4th with the same exact issue. Please fix this ASAP or remove it from the App Store and provide a refund. I was truly looking forward to experiencing this app! Thank you. ### 5/5 — Changed my life 💫 *2021-04-24, version 1.0.3* I’ve always felt a connection to Ms. Iyanla but struggled to fully connect during meditation. Until I found this app. I’m truly enjoying my journey. 💎🌻💙 ### 3/5 — No longer has background music *2021-04-02, version 1.0.1* I loved the app until the background music went anyway. ### 3/5 — Great content, crashes a lot *2021-03-22, version 1.0.1* This app would be great if it didn’t constantly crash. Also the background music is really choppy in some of the meditation. Makes me feel like I wasted my money. Please fix it ### 5/5 — It’s a godsend *2021-03-02, version 1.0* This app has been a godsend for me. I recommend it for anyone who’s going through difficulties. ### 5/5 — LOVE *2021-02-07, version 1.0* Love Iyanla so much! The meditations bring me so much peace & joy!!! ### 3/5 — Crashes *2021-02-02, version 1.0* I was able to take a vantage of this app maybe three times before it kept crashing. I deleted the worst of all I am still having the same issue. I think it would be a wonderful app if it worked. ### 5/5 — Love it, but now it won’t open *2021-02-01, version 1.0* The App will not open now. ### 5/5 — Already love it *2021-01-19, version 1.0* I opened the app and boom start meditating... no annoying account to create or sign in with Facebook to negotiate, no forms, no questions...just meditation. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Glitch *2023-07-16, version 1.0.4* I’m aware that this app has glitches. I remove it and redownload it. Now it won’t even reload from the App store. ### 1/5 — What happened! *2021-03-28, version 1.0.1* The app opens but then immediately closes down... what’s going on? ### 1/5 — Will not loop *2021-01-28, version 1.0* Would love to listen to all, but stops after each one. Bummer. ### 1/5 — Very disappointed *2021-01-14, version 1.0* I went to purchase this app this morning. Paid the $10 and now it won’t work. It literally stop working in the middle of the 1st meditation practice. 😞 ### 1/5 — Issues still not resolved. *2020-12-01, version 1.0* Keeps freezing not worth $10 ### 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. ### 2/5 — It keeps kicking me off *2022-10-17, version 1.0.4* This is my second time deleting and reinstalling app using app only a day now ### 2/5 — Awakening app *2021-05-09, version 1.0.4* App reinstalled as instructed but still won't play. About to auto-renew but won't if resolved. ### 2/5 — Sound Quality *2020-11-28, version 1.0* The sound quality of this App fades in and out. Please provide a fix to this problem. ### 2/5 — App keeps closing *2020-11-24, version 1.0* Was working fine but just tried to open and replay 1st one and it now keeps closing app when I open it and the meditations won’t open . Please fix !! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Wise women *2025-12-27, version 1.0.5* Such a rare treat to be able to tap into such a profound channel that hopefully will be readily available to all women in the future ### 5/5 — Mind Matters Meditations *2024-09-21, version 1.0.4* These meditations are so on point with what I need in my life to uplift and motivate me!!!
