### 1/5 — Terrible

*2023-07-05*

Very unhappy with this App since I signed up for monthly subscription. Cannot log in & says it does not recognise my username or password. Checked my payments are up to date & they are!  Tried asking for the link to change password & just keep getting “system error” or it says “wait” but nothing happens. Hopeless!

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2023-04-30*

There are instructions.
I can’t get it to play more than one song and then you have to reprogram it. Not at all conducive for relaxation or sleep.
