February 5, 2026

User reviews

Disappointed

I was told to get this app by the clinician at the Integrated Response Hub to help with the insomnia associated with my ME/CFS, only to discover it isn’t available in my area and I can’t use it. I was so looking forward to actually learning how to get some quality sleep at night 🙁

Not available

It would be useful if this company could state upfront it isn’t available in England rather than asking me to create an NHS account and set up a log in. I wasted a fair amount of time doing this. Perhaps this is deliberate to encourage people to badger their local health services to provide this.

Decent results, app could use improvement

The videos and interactive sessions are good, and it’s nice to see how it guides you through sleep improvement. However the app does have some friction that would be nice to improve.

It does not pull sleep data from Apple Health, but rather relies on a bespoke integration with Fitbit. If you have any other brand of tracker (Apple, Garmin, Whoop, whatever) you have to manually enter the diary each day. A better experience would be for it to pull sleep data from Apple.

Second is that the app seems to be a wrapper around their web site. If your signal is a bit bad, you just get an error screen. No content, can’t see your diary, nothing. Better offline support would be useful.

Can’t make an account

I have no idea if this will work. I can’t even create an account. There’s no “register” button as far as I can see.

Not too bad

Doesn’t allow me to connect to my Apple Watch, just lets me connect Fitbit but I don’t have one. Google says it should connect but it doesn’t give me the Apple Watch option
