Amazing App & an Amazing Mom

I absolutely love this app! It’s the only thing that will help me sleep! Plus I adore the app creator and her story! She is truly a female hero, being a brilliant app designer and a super mom!!

Thank you so much for your kind words. I am so glad that you love that app and that it helps you fall asleep. You are awesome.

Misleading

You get 3 or 4 for free and they are good ones. Then you have to pay either $5 a month or $60 a year. For something you get free elsewhere.

So Boring!

Even with the free meditations- I’m deleting the app. It shows lots of beautiful pictures in the menu, but each meditation only shows the same picture over & over.
Ok- then the same person narrates everything. And I’m sorry, but her voice was part of the boredom.
I also tried listening to some of the free stories. Oh brother- how corny! It sounds like the person is making it up as she goes. And I actually tend to like meditation apps - but not this one.

Thank you for your feedback. Most people do meditation with their eyes closed so we did not think it was needed to have pictures changing during meditations. Thousands of people love our apps meditations, sleep stories, and sleep sounds. It is highly recommended by yoga instructions too. Sorry you do not feel the same way and hope you can find something that better suits your taste.

Was having trouble but it’s working now.

Nice layout and good sounds. Need to test it out more though.

Pretty cool

Updated: Trying the free version and the buttons I hit kept taking me to the subscription page. I thought it was BS, rated it low, and developer replied (quickly I might add). I was wrong... there are many free sounds and other stuff BUT THIS APPEARS TO BE S 1-week freebie.

I’m impressed. Sound quality seems good and there is more variety than I expected. I wanted mostly nature sounds but there are also meditations and musical stuff and weird things to me, like a hair dryer. You can layer the sounds (e.g. add crickets to wind to a lullaby). Pretty cool. But appears free for only the promo week and then it seems spendy

I’m still not sure how to know which are free from the buttons alone (I’m colorblind so maybe it’s there somehow) and would prefer seeing it instead of getting the Subscribe Page.

Customer service is obviously good - someone replied to my initial low rating quickly... thanks for correcting me. I’m still not sure if I’ll subscribe but am glad I’m trying it.

I am so glad that you are able to fall asleep fast. Thank you for your review.

I have less anxiety

I struggle with anxiety and the stress of a high pressure job. I found this app and have been using it everyday and it has helped me so much with my anxiety. I have the premium version and it is well worth it because I use this everyday. I love to mix up the sleep sounds and there are so many of them. I am also enjoying the new sleep stories. I travel a lot for work and I think it’s great that I can download the meditations and stories to listen to even when I don’t have wifi or my phone is in airplane mode. The relieve travel anxiety meditation really helps me. Great app!

This is great feedback! Thank you so much. A timer is a feature we will be adding in the near future. Would you please email me with the details/ features you would like to see in a timer? Support@escapemeditations.com.

Stole money from my account!

I loaded his app to see what it was about and forgot it as installed. A few weeks later I was charged £35 for a years subscription with no notification, no warning, I hadn’t even started the weeks trial. I have spoken to Olivia Rivera who gave me instructions on how to cancel the subscription, but she has kept my money. This is stressful. Also there is a free app called rain rain which does exactly the same thing for free.
