Something that you can just turn it on while doing the dishes. Im all for meditation when i have time for it, but i thought there would be helpful courses, podcast style, that i could listen to while i cleaned up the kitchen then later sit down to meditate. but it was all just meditation and reading. not a match for my current toddler mom lifestyle ### 5/5 — Wonderful app *2024-08-20, version 1.16.15* I use this app daily to get my day started. I love the variety of meditations, I can literally find something for whatever I’m feeling at any given moment. ### 5/5 — What a life saver! *2024-08-06, version 1.16.15* Postpartum can be SO HARD. Even more so when you have PPD. This app has helped me so much! I do a session every day while my baby naps. It really helps me feel a little more like myself. Thank you for such an amazing app! Totally worth it. ### 5/5 — ♥️ *2024-07-29, version 1.16.15* I really appreciate and look forward to the daily messages that pop up on my phone. ### 5/5 — I just downloaded this app for the first time *2024-07-01, version 1.16.15* I enjoyed the 5min session and I’m pregnant in my 3rd trimester and a mom of 10month old twins and a teenager ### 4/5 — Helpful content *2024-06-19, version 1.16.15* Overall I really enjoy using this app. I especially appreciate the sleep related content. However, I would occasionally like to get a response from others moms since I’m so often asked to provide additional support to mom’s through the app but yet I’ve never received one. Also it seems to take awhile for the subscription to go into effect so my card has been charged for a week while I’m unable to access paid content which is frustrating. I have emailed support twice without reply. 😩 ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2024-06-15, version 1.16.15* I am a mom to three boys and I love using the app in some of the most challenging times! The meditations are beautiful and relatable. I’m also a coach for moms and I recommend this app regularly. Really appreciate this app! ### 4/5 — It’s a bit expensive other than that great app! *2024-06-05, version 1.16.15* Price is a bit much. ### 5/5 — So helpful *2024-05-27, version 1.16.15* Especially as everything I been through and am Going through 💪❤️ ### 5/5 — Wonderful *2024-05-22, version 1.16.15* This meditation app has been perfect for my stage of motherhood and being at a beginner/intermediate stage of meditation. It’s really helped me grow in mindfulness and mental clarity through difficult times of parenting. I’m so grateful for this app and recommend it to all moms. ### 5/5 — For every mom who ever has a hard time *2024-05-20, version 1.16.15* For every mom who ever has a hard time… it truly gets it - it acknowledges the multi-facets of deep seated insecurities, points of discontent and complex (and even conflicting) feelings of managing the “mother load”. I tried Calm for a bit and it was helpful but surface level. This speaks to my soul to give me space to be vulnerable, validation that this is hard and many moms experience this, and reminders of my strength and to have gratitude. Thank you for making this app. ### 4/5 — Great App *2024-05-06, version 1.16.15* I loved using this app. The mini meditations really help get me back in focus. I love the reminders with affirmations and the daily log. The free trial was great. ### 5/5 — First time momma! *2024-05-03, version 1.16.15* I am really enjoying this app. It’s been helping me with being more aware of what I am feeling, my triggers and helping me meditate and breath through it all. I’m new to this app but I’m so in love with it already. I recommend this app to all Momma’s. ### 5/5 — Grateful *2024-04-19, version 1.16.15* Mindful mama’s is a lot more than just an app. They really do care for each and everyone of us and let us know we are not alone! I encourage every single mama to at least try. It takes time to be mindful and this app helps. Love y’all mindful mamas and thanks for the support. YOU ARE NOT ALONE. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Can’t register *2026-04-15, version 1.17.1* It “fails to create user” no matter what I do. Pointless. ### 1/5 — Useless without Subscription *2026-02-09, version 1.16.15* Can’t find any of the free meditation. If you have the subscription, the app is very useful. But without one, free meditations are hard to find, and good meditations are behind a paywall. ### 1/5 — Beware: charges for subscription without permission *2025-09-24, version 1.16.15* I clicked to start a 14 day trial and was charged over $70.00 immediately with no way to contact the company for a refund even though it clearly stated the subscription would start after the two week trial ended. I am NOT thrilled by this and want the company to issue me a refund. ### 1/5 — Can’t cancel subscription *2025-08-11, version 1.16.15* I forgot I was subscribed to this so I got charged $50 annual price. That was my fault. I’m mad because I can’t cancel the subscription through the App Store, I can’t find this app in the general setting. Please find a way to make it easier to cancel. ### 1/5 — Somewhat misleading description *2024-07-24, version 1.16.15* Description says there are both free and paid subscriptions. The only free subscription available was the 14 day trial, after which I’m assuming your card would be charged. ### 1/5 — No contact *2024-06-30, version 1.16.15* I have been trying to get in contact after the app took £60 from my account. I had not cancelled the renew but also have not once used the app so I do believe its only fair to refund. Since trying to contact, the few times I have opened the app to look for help I have had an error message about it being unsecure. ### 1/5 — Bad customer service *2024-01-30, version 1.16.15* Signed up for the trial, was supposed to get notified before getting charged but never received an notification. Emailed the company to resolve the issue and no one ever responded. I don’t feel like the app is worth $75/year for what they offer. ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2024-01-16, version 1.16.15* I had a free trial and didn’t cancel in time. I was therefore forced to pay for a yearly subscription. I’ve used a few meditation apps and this one is subpar. There are lots of silence in the meditation and I would prefer some background noise. Often due to the silence, I have to check and see if the app is still working. This leaves me frustrated instead of calm. This app is the same price a year as the Calm app. The Calm app is 1,000 times better. This app should be $20 a year not $70. Overall it’s very disappointing. ### 1/5 — Not free *2023-09-06, version 1.16.15* You can only do like 3 things before paying. ### 1/5 — Hidden Subscription *2023-06-27, version 1.16.15* Marketed on Instagram as a free daily meditation but actually a pay to subscribe service. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I ♥ YOU *2025-02-27, version 1.16.15* YOU SAVED MY LIFE AND I AM ETERNALLY GRATEFUL. ### 5/5 — Great app *2025-01-30, version 1.16.15* I love the app it’s very educational and informative for your mindfulness journey. I do wish there were more free things available or a cheaper membership, but I understand why it’s so pricey. I signed up for a subscription and after canceling it in the App Store, I forgot to go into the app itself and cancel. I reached out to customer service at about 11 am this morning and they got back to me at 1:30 pm with a full refund. I’ve never had such speedy customer service with online apps! I think the app is great, along with their customer service team. ### 5/5 — Helped me through some tough times *2025-01-24, version 1.16.15* As a second time, mama, this app opt me to calm my mind at night when I needed to sleep. The variety of resources, and especially the meditations and daily steps, or great ways to stay focused and present in the moment. ### 5/5 — Super beneficial!! *2024-12-27, version 1.16.15* This app has saved me on my hardest days. Every day I start with the meditation of the day and feel my day has begun right! Totally, absolutely worth the money and your time!! ### 5/5 — Essential app *2024-12-26, version 1.16.15* I had some traumatic experiences surrounding the birth of my child. Sometimes this app was the only thing to ground me. So thankful I came across it ### 5/5 — Amazing *2024-12-11, version 1.16.15* This app is amazing ### 5/5 — Companion for tough times *2024-10-26, version 1.16.15* This app helped me stay grounded and sane over the hardest newborn days. Thank you. ### 5/5 — So helpful *2024-10-21, version 1.16.15* I’ve been going through a period of mental health challenges associated with parenting. This app (especially the daily mantras sent via email) has been so wonderful in giving me positive ways to think about things and in simply letting me know that I am not alone in feeling what I do. ### 5/5 — Helped me be a more calm and centered mom *2024-09-18, version 1.16.15* I’ve been using Mindful Mamas for a few months and the daily sips are a perfect way to clear my head at the end of the day. It’s helped me be a more calm and centered mom and I notice that I get more overwhelmed and triggered when I’ve gone a few days without using it. It’s been a big help with my anxiety and confidence as a mother. Highly recommend! ### 5/5 — One year *2024-09-05, version 1.16.15* This app is incredible! I have loved their messages, they help me feel connected and not alone. It’s like someone is reading my mind and lovingly supporting me. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
