Paid content not working
The app is quite poorly made. It is very difficult to navigate and now that I paid for the full version, the weekly map has disappeared altogether. I can tap random points on the blank green screen and be taken to another page but that is also totally blank. Don’t waste your money on this faulty app.

Outdated but still useful
I hunted high and low to find a way to listen to the meditations on my phone. Fortunately found the app; however, despite really appreciating being able to listen easily now, the quality of the app is quite poor. The user interface is underdeveloped in my opinion. It’s not intuitive or attractive especially as the app costs £3.99. It doesn’t seem to record sessions accurately as some days it captures the fact I’ve done two sessions and other days it doesn’t. It feels as if this app is in need of some refreshing and updating. That said, I still think it’s worth paying for as the meditations are very helpful.

Simply delightful … 🙏
This app accompanies the book and is a wonderful way to build a mindful practice through the 8-week course. Simple to use and full of insights. My only bit of feedback for the developers would be that the practice tracker sometimes get stuck, but simply closing the app and reopening it overcame this and I was credited with meditations I sat. I suffer with anxiety and by week 3 I was feeling much better…. Thank you … 🙏

So far, so good
I was dubious that this app would still work (based on previous reviews) but it seems to be for me! I like the fact that the programme is mapped out so I can just fire up the app and get on with the programme! I literally have no excuse for not getting on with it now 😁
Mind Boggling
There is absolutely nothing in the app, other than a link to a £3.99 purchase option.
Glitched.

Love this app BUT (updated review)
Since the last update a couple of days ago the 30 minute timer has stopped ringing 3 bells for preparation time and then after a couple of minutes the app stops working. Very frustrating ! Have sent several messages via the contact form but no response. Have spent so long trying to rectify the problem haven’t had time to try the guided meditations but the timer is my daily go to. Would be great if someone could get back to me if not will have to look for another app which would be a shame.
Team got back to me after leaving above review but then stopped communicating after a couple of attempts to sort the problem when nothing was successful.
Shame as will have to look for a differnt app now.

Thank you
Mark Williams your voice is chocolate for the soul - thank you
Doesn’t match the book recommendations
The app has weekly sections but they don’t contain all the mediations recommended by the book.
Awful
It wasn’t great before but since the update it’s become unusable because it crashes while playing the meditations. Can’t play through a single one.
I am an iOS developer and have published on the app store. This app is a disgrace.

I Studied the Subject ....
.....quite a bit and was attracted to to the likelihood of it working, but it was only when I heard Mark Williams that I was convinced. He has such a mature yet understanding way of putting it over.
Great app to support the book
I have been involved with groups for a few years that use FInding Peace in a Frantic World as a book study course to introduce mindfulness. I wd recommend having both the book and the app. The app supports all the info in the book and it’s so convenient to have the meditations on a device rather than playing the cd each time you want to do the practices (esp if you are away from your normal surroundings). However if you’re not a book person, the app does cover the essentials of the 8 week course with lots of precious nuggets of advice.

App
meditation interrupts constantly and stops
I deleted this app for more space on iPad...
...and got it back new and improved! I was taught by Ruchiraketu at Cambridge Buddhist Centre (UK) Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction in 2007 and 2017. He encouraged us to return to the centre should we need to. Brilliant! I will now be using this app daily to “weave my parachute” as we were taught on the course. If I got into a tight space and needed instant calm I’d then have the very best methods (in combination with yoga) at my disposal

Has helped for anxiety
I have had an anxiety condition for a long time and have tried several treatments including hypnosis and yoga and have found this App has helped my anxiety the most out of the treatments mentioned, it’s not a cure, I don’t think you can rely on this solely for anxiety but if you do the meditations once in the morning, 2x 3 minute breathing spaces and a slightly longer practice in the evening you should see some benefit.

Just stopped working
Had to pay for it again
App not working
Mindfulness is brilliant, but the app is terrible. Over the past couple of years I had to reinstall several times, I even had to re-purchase, and now it’s stopping halfway through meditations. Absolutely terrible.
Meditations just cut out: very frustrating!
This was a very helpful app but now doesn’t work properly as the meditations just cut out. I’m very unhappy about having paid for it to do this.
App no longer works
I use this app regularly, the meditations alongside the book have been really valuable. Since the last update the meditations only play for a few seconds and then cut out. Not good enough when I have paid for the content.
Now working again
Excellent book and app content. It kept crashing but after I deleted app and reinstalled, it’s working fine again now. I already feel less stressed!
App no longer working!!
I don’t normally write reviews however after successfully using this app for the past 7 months it no longer works! The app is brilliant , it is simple to use and a useful tool to start a mindfulness journey. Sadly since the last update on my iPhone the app no longer works. This is very annoying and frustrating as I paid for the full version. It starts in the normal way so you are lulled into thinking it’s working then, after a minute or to it just stops . I’ve tried the suggested fixes to no avail.
Could we please have a proper fix for this problem !
