### 1/5 — App doesn't work like supposed to

*2015-11-01*

If you add more than one belief you want to change in the Change your Beliefs section, it makes you think it is possible and that it will save all the info and answers you type in, but then it doesn't.  You spend all that time thinking and reflecting and typing it and saving it and then it is GONE.  Overall, app is very disappointing, esp for $7.

### 2/5 — I already have the CD

*2015-10-20*

When I paid for this app,, I didn’t know that is was the same as the CD that I already have….it wasn’t necessary to buy this app.

### 1/5 — Doesn't Reflect True Quality of Dr Joe's Work

*2015-10-16*

Great idea to have a Dr Joe app but is pretty useless. Morning meditation ends jarringly in the middle of a word. Evening meditation is too short to achieve its purpose. The company that created this made something that is NOT representative of the quality of Dr Joe's work (which is brilliant). Has errors like something is written in German instead of English, as if this is a beta version and not really ready for the public. A disappointment. Needs a lot of remedial work. Start over & ask Dr Joe to make special morning & evening meditations. Then will be worth the price.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2015-10-12*

For the price, well, scratch that…even if it was free, I’d be disappointed, but especially for $7.  I find the cadence and the voice jarring and counterproductive to meditating.  The delivery is almost a little comical.  A typo on the screen hints at the quality of the app (“INFORMATIONS”?? When did Information pick up an S to become plural? And “IMAGINATE”?? And this is the new and improved version?)  The "Your Progress" screen has German type at the top, a date of 12-31-69 and doesn’t function.  I don’t understand the point of the feature anyway.  I love the book, but this app and the mediations on it are completely useless for me.

### 2/5 — Stopping meditations

*2015-10-09*

My meditations keep stopping and they 'get stuck' have to then try and find where I last was or start from the beginning again. Frustrating

### 2/5 — Does Not Compute

*2015-02-19, version 1.0.0*

If you have the recordings for the Placebo publication, you have the same ones here.  This, however (apart from the narrative written by Dr. Joe Dispenza), is poorly translated into English, has both spelling and grammatical errors and the only best thing is the green click on the opening page that has you agree that you are a Genius.  Wildly over priced and instantly more expensive if you are outside of the US.  I feel kind of stupid for buying it.

### 2/5 — New APP

*2015-02-14*

As an enthusiastic user of a number of Dr. Joe's guided meditations that I purchased on CD, I downloaded this APP thinking that it would be good to have some shorter versions I could use. As I listened to the morning meditation my awareness was distracted to what I thought was the high pitched beeping sound a trash truck makes as it back up.  When it stopped and than started a second time I put on headphones and realized it was part of the sound track.  It is too piercing a sound for meditation.
I think this APP is overpriced.

### 1/5 — This app don’t work at all

*2022-06-18*

Nothing in this app works. Do not purchase .

### 1/5 — Not a good app at all

*2019-12-11*

Once your phone is locked the medication will stop. Your phone screen needs to be on /open all the time otherwise the app won’t work. 
There is only 2 meditations and both are very short. 
You can find these meditations full version on YouTube . 
I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone .
I do not use the app at all. 
Very poor app and poor and short meditations .
Don’t waste your money.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2017-08-29*

Waste of money. Apple should give a break, when we understand that is not what you are expecting.

### 1/5 — Only 3 short meditations

*2017-04-18*

Respected Dr should clearly state what's within the price. Almost $7 for light meditation intros?

### 1/5 — Do not buy, needs major changes, overpriced

*2016-10-05*

This app has only three short meditations of 25 minutes duration all together, the instructions are not clear (I actually know what he is talking about and still the author seems to assume you already know and just need a reminder), several labels are in German language without translations, visuals are basic and unappealing, the way to document your progress is lumbering and unintuitive. This app needs major improvements and is totally overpriced at $ 6.99. DO NOT BUY!

### 1/5 — Very disappointing

*2016-07-29*

I paid the 12 bucks for this app thinking it would be money well spent, as i love dr joe. However, the app is ridiculously basic, with 3 short meditations only and a rating system that is your own input. Waste of money

### 1/5 — App does not work properly

*2016-03-28, version 1.4.0*

I just bought the app and was looking forward to using the meditations, but sadly it kept stopping in the middle of the meditation. I restarted three times, but then decided to stop. I really would like to return it for refund but I am not sure how that works.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2016-03-16*

Unfortunately, mine came in 1/2 English and 1/2 German.  As well, the “morning” and “evening” meditation are a 15 minute and 5 minute selection from one of his CD meditations.
I suspect Momanda has not been authorized by Dr. Joe to market such a low quality, disappointing product.  A fellow workshop attendee recommended it because the meditations are short — indeed they are!  Very dissappointing. Wish I had read these reviews prior to  purchase, especially at $6.99

### 1/5 — Do not purchase

*2016-03-01*

There are too many great meditation tools out there. Did not expect this from the author.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2016-02-11*

I love dr Joe Dispenza. This app does not work. The evening meditation does not play. Very frustrating after 6.99 get it together guys. Was looking forward . You also cannot type in your beliefs on the evening meditation page either.

### 5/5 — Best meditation ever

*2019-04-06*

I’ve been meditating for a long time. This is a powerful meditation tho Dr Joe’s voice takes getting used to. But there’s a method to his use of words and sounds. Give this a try and see how it can improve your attitude and instill hope life gets better.

### 5/5 — Awesome meditations

*2018-12-18*

Love the meditations on this app. A shorter version of the full one if u don’t have time. Really gets me to focus. Well done Joe!!

### 5/5 — Love this ap!

*2018-06-14*

It’s easy to use and the meditations are perfect for me.  

A suggestion to the developer - spell check the ap.  There a few misspelled words on it. 

Also, hire a voice over that sounds more soothing. Perhaps a friendly British accent or a singer with soft vibe in their voice.

### 5/5 — Brilliant!

*2015-05-06*

I've been meditating with Joe for over 6 months now using the full guided meditation and the app.
It really gives me the goose bumps!!!
This app, the meditation and Joe's books are one of the best things that happened to me in the last year and changed my life in a way I never thought was possible...
If I could suggest couple of improvements to the app it would be option for creating a playlist/loop and play in locked screen.
Thank you!

### 4/5 — Practical for tracking beliefs you want to change

*2015-03-08*

I have attended several workshops and read a few books by Dr. Joe Dispenza. The hardest part of doing his meditations toward changing my beliefs is making time to do it. This app provides a super handy tool to write changes in beliefs and perceptions I want to make and track how well I have made the changes or integrated the new beliefs. The audio meditations this app provides are only about 15 minutes long, or less but they allow you to remain in a meditative state for as long as you desire. Being able to re read and track progress of the beliefs and changes is a great reminder of my intentions. It may appear costly, but it is much cheaper than a book or workshop and actually helps me do the work. For that reason it is inexpensive. The interface is rather rudimentary and could use a better chart for progress. Also it would help to have short Dr. Joe quotes show up as you track changes. The information was lifted from something written for workshop participants and was not edited for the app format. An updated version could fix this. If you know his work, this app is a gem to accompany readings and workshops.

### 3/5 — missing parts

*2017-03-04*

um....wait....these aren't the entire morning & evening meditations? come on DR JOE?

### 3/5 — It's ok

*2017-03-01*

Although this app is good, how come the meditations are only 10 mins long? The morning and night one supposed to go for 30 minutes

### 3/5 — Placebo - doesn´t work

*2016-03-10*

sadly enough the meditations always stop - not useable
very nice reaction of momanda! Thank you!

### 2/5 — Awesome IF it worked

*2015-12-11*

Two of the three main meditations won't play. So disappointed after paying $7 !

### 2/5 — Doesn't Work

*2015-12-04*

Buttons and functionality do not work. This could not have been tested. Can't believe Apple Store accepted this. Apps aren't books - things have to work it's not just about the information
