It always used to be my number one for relaxation and falling asleep. I was invited to joined the Facebook group some years ago and I posted several times about this but there has been no updates. If I recall too I was told most of the interaction is now in Instagram which not all of us use. My subscription is due in October and sadly I have already cancelled so it will then expire. Not what I wanted but the app has badly needed refreshing a long time ago due to competition. ### 3/5 — J. K. Rowling?? *2026-05-07, version 5.0.43* Your app is good but wake up and get rid of that transphobic person on your splash screen. ### 2/5 — Paid for a year and only got halfway through before my account got deactivated. *2026-01-19, version 5.0.40* I liked the sounds of the app but it deactivated my account halfway through my annual period. Can’t get it working without buying it again. It says on my account it’s still active but it won’t let me into the app. ### 3/5 — No Updated sounds or stories *2026-01-14, version 5.0.40* Why have there not been any new stories released? The latest is The Lost Sock & that was almost a year ago. If there’s no consistent updates to the content, then what are our subscriptions paying for? ### 2/5 — Initially quite good, now poor *2025-12-10, version 5.0.40* The app developers appear to have gone out of business according to recent news reports. Any attempts at contacting customer service go unanswered. Save your money. ### 3/5 — Getting Dated *2025-10-16, version 5.0.40* Articles are very outdated, for example headphone article was written in 2020 ### 4/5 — Used to be brilliant *2025-09-19, version 5.0.39* Now constantly crashing under ios26. Please fix ### 3/5 — iOS 26 incompatible *2025-09-18, version 5.0.39* fails to launch ### 3/5 — Crashes on iOS 26 *2025-09-16, version 5.0.39* I love this app and have used it for power naps for years. I hope they’re still supporting it because it’s currently unusable and immediately crashes upon opening. ### 4/5 — Doesn’t work on iOS 26 :( *2025-09-16, version 5.0.39* iPhone 16 pro max, iOS 26, app doesn’t work:( ### 4/5 — Great app, but... *2025-07-08, version 5.0.39* Love the app, but it would be even better if the message for the paying upgrade didn't include an endorsement by JK Rowling. ### 2/5 — shares data with facebook/meta *2025-06-18, version 5.0.39* Beautifully executed concept that is besmirched by sharing and/or selling user data to Facebook/Meta. Pzizz gets a big rating drop from me but Apple privacy reporting gets 5/5 stars! ### 2/5 — J. K. Rowling?? *2025-06-09, version 5.0.39* Get rid of that transphobic woman on your splash screen. She’s not doing you any good. ### 2/5 — Too much talking. *2025-02-24, version 5.0.38* After seeing all the 5 star reviews i downloaded for my husband. We previewed the sounds and found one he liked. The. The guy started talking. He wouldn’t stop. Had to turn it off for it was annoying both of us. We just want sound no talk. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Used to love it, now it’s useless *2025-09-29, version 5.0.40* Pzizz used to be one of my favorite apps for focus. The focus scapes were genuinely helpful, and the fact that they were free made it accessible to anyone who needed it. Now they’ve locked all of that behind a paywall. The rest of the app might still be “free,” but the main feature I and so many others actually used is completely gone unless you subscribe. No warning, no notice, just pay up or lose access. For an app that marketed itself around mental health and accessibility, it feels like a pretty low move. I wouldn’t recommend it anymore. There are better options that don’t pull this kind of stunt. Update & reply to developer response: That is a blatant lie. I have never paid for pro. I used the focus feature for free earlier this year, now I no longer can as it is a pro feature. Absolutely despicable that you would respond to a poor review by misrepresenting the truth just to make me appear ignorant or deceptive as a user. ### 1/5 — Crashes immediately after opening *2025-09-17, version 5.0.39* Crashes immediately after opening suddenly. It’s completely unusable! Thanks a lot! I actually needed this app but I’ll pay for another one that works. Byeee thanks for nothing ### 1/5 — Used to love it, now it’s useless *2025-07-07, version 5.0.39* Pzizz used to be one of my favorite apps for focus.

Not anymore *2025-02-04, version 5.0.38* (TLDR; charges you without providing anything. Sad because it used to be good.) First used this years ago. It was really helpful, but eventually I didn't need it anymore. Got out of the habit of using. Recent events and illness have impacted my sleep, so I thought this would be a pleasant and nostalgic return to something that helped in the past. Nope. The app begs for money now. Thought "sure, why not, I'll buy a year. It's a good app." Nope. Took my money without giving me any access to any of the paid features. The begging for subscription looks pretty... that was important to someone in development. Too bad the actual delivery of content to paying users wasn't of similar priority. ### 1/5 — Hasn’t been updated in years *2024-12-25, version 5.0.38* If you are going to change a subscription fee, you best be adding new content each month. This hasn’t been updated in almost a year. No new soundscapes, focus music or anything else. ### 1/5 — Hasn’t been updated in months and months *2024-10-29* If you are going to change a subscription fee, you best be adding new content each month. This hasn’t been updated in almost a year. No new soundscapes, focus music or anything else. ### 1/5 — The playback keeps switching to my iPhone *2024-07-09, version 5.0.38* I am using this app for the first time, it keeps randomly switching the playback from my headset (both Powerbeats and AirPods Pro) to my iPhone. Completely negating the whole point of the app! Fix this please ### 1/5 — Missing feature *2023-10-30, version 5.0.37* There is no Nap App that uses sensors (IPhone or Apple Watch) to monitor when the person is falling asleep during the nap and then, and only then, launches the Timer ⏱️. I dont want a 15 minutes nap, I want to sleep 15 minutes, even if the whole nap time takes longer. This would be a new unique feature. Sorry for my broken english. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Obvious Jewel *2025-10-28, version 5.0.40* I purchased this app years ago and used to a bit, but I didn’t have the technology at the time to really make it work. Now I have headphones that don’t interrupt my sleeping. this has enabled me to get tons out of the app. As I said, I purchased this app years ago long before it expanded into what it is today. My only wishes that I could turn off all of the other things, and just use the classic product which I purchased. Well it is possible to do that, what I’m asking for is the ability to turn off all the reminders and screens that I have to remember to click through so that I can just use the sleep and Knapp classic products which I purchased so long ago. I don’t like subscriptions. The other option is offer another lifetime. ### 5/5 — Good nap timer *2025-10-23, version 5.0.40* Lmao ### 5/5 — Impressive! *2025-10-18, version 5.0.40* I’ve been using the Pzizz app and to be honest it’s like a really soothing massage for the mind at bedtime. It simply works. ### 5/5 — Part of my routine *2025-10-14, version 5.0.40* I have used this app for years! A reliable way for me to catch some zzzs when I have a spare moment. As soon as I hear the music, I relax 🥰 THANK YOU ### 5/5 — Crashes on iOS 26 *2025-09-29, version 5.0.40* UPDATE: This was fixed within the first week of iOS 26 release. I got a response from the developer that they’re committed to updating the app. So happy to be able to update my review and give them the 5 stars they deserve. This is a must-have app for power napping. Hoping in the future they’ll watch for instability during the public beta period. ORIGINAL REVIEW: I love this app and have used it for power naps for years. I hope they’re still supporting it because it’s currently unusable and immediately crashes upon opening. ### 5/5 — Crashes after opening on iOS 26 *2025-09-19, version 5.0.39* Owners/developers no longer care about this app. It’s so unfortunate ### 5/5 — Love it except can’t get in it. *2024-12-05, version 5.0.38* I’m putting 5 stars because I do really like it, when I could have it. but it will not let me in the app. Which I have tried everything to get back in. I can’t pay to have the premium and can’t pay for the trial. I think it’s basically kicked me out. I mean I press the app and whenever I try to sleep nap focus or anything, it goes to the payment page. This is really hard and disappointing if not fixed. Please please please, developers please fix it! Please respond! I am jobless and don’t have money, I need the sleep and it’s helped me so so so much. I keep on trying, if this keeps up where you give them a week to have it and then make them pay…I know so many apps and company’s that have done that and have gotten sued a lot. Please don’t MAKE ME PAY. It says my app status is FREE! Then why isn’t it free? Please developer, I’m begging. ### 5/5 — Best sleep for International Flight Attendants *2024-11-09, version 5.0.38* I have to make myself go to sleep at weird times when I travel all over the world and I don’t know what I would do without this app. It puts me to sleep in five minutes. I also play it with all three grandchildren and they fall asleep within minutes. It’s the best I’ve ever tried and I’ve tried them all! Love love love this app!!! ### 5/5 — Lovin this app *2024-08-04, version 5.0.38* I’ve been using this app for a few weeks now. I get extremely tired during the day and because I work, I can’t risk just having a nap but I can with Pzizz! I do a 20 Relax & Energise and I either do fall asleep for the 20 minutes or I totally relax my body and wake up ready for the rest of the day. On days I’m particularly knocked I might have another nap late in the afternoon. I’d love to see a body scan nap on the app if possible. ### 5/5 — I was involved at development *2024-01-31, version 5.0.38* I was one of a team of users who commented on the development of this App. I love it but am just a little disappointed that there is no apparent further development of the modules. I would love to hear more sleep hypnosis but there are only a couple to go at. Cmon Pzizz give us some more. The cupboard is fairly bare at the moment. I would like to renew but need a reason!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
