### 2/5 — Where did the content go?

*2026-07-02, version 2.4*

I purchased meditations through this app and now after the general intro, nothing plays.

### 4/5 — Cant get in app purchases to play

*2015-06-29, version 1.400*

Its a great relaxation recording.  Puts me to sleep and calms me completely.  However, i bought 5 in app add ons and i cant get any of them to play.  No matter what i do i can only get the original relaxation recording.  At 4$ a session, Im rather disappointed and hope they fix this....

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2015-04-04, version 1.400*

After reading all these reviews I was very disappointed in this app. Her voice is not soothing in the least, it does not flow she gets quite and loud and not relaxing whatsoever. I have about 15 apps from Andrew Johnson and they're absolutely amazing but thought I would give this a try definitely not worth the money. I tried it 3 times and had to go back to Andrew Johnson every night.

### 5/5 — Reiki

*2014-09-24, version 1.400*

I love it. The soft sounds and voices put me to sleep every time  I work shift work and sleeping is a task at times.  I can use this to put me to sleep. I highly recommend

### 5/5 — Very helpful.

*2014-07-12, version 1.400*

One of the best apps to really relax on a very deep level.

### 5/5 — Reiki relaxation

*2014-05-24, version 1.400*

Love it

### 4/5 — Good technique to learn

*2014-05-12, version 1.103*

The woman's voice is a bit hard to relax to she swells and ebbs with her own enthusiasm.

### 5/5 — Works for me...

*2014-04-28, version 1.103*

This app has helped me to relax during the day and sleep better at night.  I use the sleep and chakra apps also.  All three start the same and most of the time I am asleep before I reach the bottom of the staircase...

### 3/5 — Meh

*2014-02-07, version 1.103*

All of these apps by Rachel have the same beginning 20-25 minute intro, but change in the last 20 minutes. Her voice is not the most relaxing voice as she peeks with a 'GOOD!!' right as you're relaxed and there's been a long silence. I actually jumped the first time I heard it. I do find myself using her techniques to relax but not using the app any longer.

### 5/5 — Best app ever

*2013-11-19, version 1.103*

Absolutely love this app and there are so many things that it is great for helping I want all of them tho just a bit expensive to buy each one.

### 4/5 — Great relaxation

*2013-11-07, version 1.103*

This app works very well to calm me down after long day.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2013-08-18, version 1.103*

I suffer from Chronic back pain and Depression. This app is amazing and helps me fall asleep and wake up in the morning feeling wide awake!!!!

### 5/5 — App works well for me

*2013-06-23, version 1.103*

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2025-02-01*

Cannot find my purchases!!!!!

### 1/5 — Voice not relaxing at all

*2021-04-17, version 2.4*

The voice is not relaxing. The instructions are good but the voice is not soothing enough. Had to delete

### 1/5 — Junk

*2016-01-25, version 1.400*

This is the worst app I have ever bought. The end.

### 1/5 — Guided meditation

*2013-12-09, version 1.103*

Her voice is far far far off from being relaxing. I don't know if the same voice is used on all them. But I would need to sample first before buying anything in the future.

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2013-07-09, version 1.103*

This app is not configured for iPad so the display appears messed up and doesn't rotate to horizontal viewing mode.  In any case, this app does not do anything except to play a Rachel Meddows hypnosis audio with a relaxing visual backdrop, again which does not work on iPad. Pretty pointless.

### 1/5 — Very disappointed

*2013-05-14, version 1.102*

I bought this app as it clearly states it contains music tracks for relaxation. There is no music on the app at all. I do hope I can get a full refund as I am not impressed. Pretty gutted really as was really looking forward to using this app.

### 1/5 — Didn't work for me

*2012-11-10, version 1.101*

Maybe I'm not very suggestible, but someone telling me to relax doesn't make me relax.

### 1/5 — what

*2012-07-18, version 1.101*

everytime the screen closes during session the session stops. I was almost ready to buy some different sessions. Now I only want to delete. It is suppose to help relax. Instead I am breathing heavy very upset that I only had 4 days and it does not work any longer. u r the weakest link GOODBYE

### 1/5 — The tracks need syncing.

*2012-05-02, version 1.101*

There is a constant echo which makes it impossible to understand what is being said.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2012-01-06, version 1.02*

Spent 4.99 on this and every time I try to open the app, it instantly closes.  I should have listened to the other reviewers.  Do not purchase this unless you see a message from the developer stating that this issue has been fixed.  I am very disappointed.

### 5/5 — Absolutely Amazing ❤️

*2020-02-03, version 2.4*

Since useing this app i have slept a lot better as iv always had trouble and I wake up feeling a lot calmer in myself I use many meditation apps but I have to say this one is the one by far the best one as I suffer with anxiety n depression and it has really helped me so much if I could I would give 5out of 20 score as it’s absolutely worth listening to ❤️

### 5/5 — It works great.

*2017-03-05, version 1.400*

Try it for yourself

### 5/5 — Healing

*2016-02-09, version 1.400*

I found this app years ago when I was doing research on how alternative therapies could help to treat symptoms of PTSD. At the time I was suffering from frequent panic attacks associated with PTSD triggers of my own. My therapist had told me that meditation could help me to learn to be more mindful within the moment and, thus, ideally lessening the severity of the anxiety attacks. Unfortunately I've never been very successful with meditations on my own, and in the midst of an anxiety attack it surely didn't work. The guided feature in this app however, has helped me calm down and come out of a PTSD episode more times than I care to admit.
I mostly used the relaxation track to help treat my PTSD and anxiety at first. But I've also downloaded several of the other available tracks. I always try to pick one that's relevant to what is currently stressing me out, and turn it on before I go to bed. When I wake up in the morning I can definitely feel a shift in the energies within my body and a reduced stress response as well.
Also, I am a Fitness Professional and Pilates Instructor, and I recommend this app when ever I can to my clients. I believe that the mind-body-spirit connection must be found in order to reach any fitness or health goals.

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2015-08-15, version 1.400*

It's been years since I've been able to sleep for more than 30 minutes straight. Now, with the hypothesis apps., I'm sleeping 5 hours straight for the first time in a long time.  You can't even imagine how that affects everything in your body. I really hope that it keeps working, it's life changing getting that R. E. M. sleep and it's so important to our well being, I have been sick for a long time and maybe this is my miracle, and not just this app. , I have about 25 hypnosis apps. And pick a different one each night. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Don't hesitate!

*2015-06-17, version 1.400*

I've downloaded all of Rachael Meddows' apps and they are worth every penny! I use one almost every day/ night for a power nap or good night sleep. Help with stress, focus & balance.

### 5/5 — Mr P

*2015-02-11, version 1.400*

it works for me , the background noise choice is a great option

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2015-01-14, version 1.400*

I wake up feeling refreshed and relaxed every time I use it!

### 5/5 — Love this appt!

*2014-12-20, version 1.400*

Pleasantly surprised how this app is set up.  I'm currently fighting my own demons by getting off all medications and going onto homeopathic meds. Having a hard time, but this app is really helping. I highly recommend it for living a heathy, balanced life.

### 5/5 — Relaxation in any form works

*2014-12-14, version 1.400*

While not perfect for me (I would change some details), this app starts me down a very good path.  Used with Reiki, it is a very useful resource.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2014-12-08, version 1.400*

I got this app after trying two other apps for relaxation that were nice but did nothing for me.  I cannot believe how relaxed I was after listening to this just once. It was amazing!  I feel very relaxed and even happier--which is strange bc nothing about mood or happiness was mentioned and I am alone in a room. I am downloading another one of her apps right now.  I will definitely listen to this again.
