My daughter put me onto Restful so I decided to try out the free tracks. I was amazed by how the music plus vocals was so calming and how it ‘switched my brain off’. I would certainly recommend this app to anyone who struggles to fall asleep. ### 5/5 — Soothing balm for the soul *2023-12-04, version 1.0.74* My nervous system thanks me every time I listen to Meditones. I love that I can make my own playlist inside the app, save tracks to my favourites and choose based on what I need support with in that moment. It’s a brilliant! ### 5/5 — My cocoon for creating *2023-11-05, version 1.0.73* I love listening to the tracks on the app when I want to get deep into creative work. I pop my headphones on and hours seem to pass by and I’m deep in flow. Or I listen when I need rest and to create some space for me from life and the world. Beautiful music and a really functional and easy to use app. ### 5/5 — Fantastic and amazing *2023-11-05, version 1.0.73* I’ve been listening to Tahlee’s work for some time now. She writes amazing, relaxing and invigorating compositions, using meditones that create calm brain waves. I can’t explain how they work, really. I just know that listening to them clams me down, lifts me up, relaxes me, or motivates me to be a better person. And, the music is so beautiful! I totally recommend giving Restful a go! ### 5/5 — Incredible music. *2023-10-05, version 1.0.73* Such a great app to help with focus and anxiety. Music is super calming. Would highly recommend! ### 5/5 — Calming gorgeous tunes *2023-10-05, version 1.0.73* I use these tunes to meditate, when I can’t sleep, and when traveling in public transport to calm my body and mind and bring myself back to my centre. They lift my spirits and remind me that I am here now, and grateful for this life. ### 5/5 — Transformative *2023-08-31, version 1.0.73* Restful is a godsend, honestly this music feels like magic. I listen to certain tracks to clear my mind and focus while I work and listen to other tracks when I get into bed and without fail it helps me fall asleep when my brain won’t shut up. I wish everyone knew how good this app is. You should probably download it right now. The perfect medicine for an anxious mind. ### 5/5 — Pure Bliss! *2023-03-15, version 1.0.70* This app is amazing! I love listening to the medicines to create peace when I need to regulate my nervous system. I listen to the ones in the Confidence category when I’m working to tap into my creativity and audacity! I recommend this app to any and everyone looking for a way to self-soothe and relax! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 ### 5/5 — Spacious grounded peace *2023-03-02, version 1.0.70* The entire landscape of my brain feels like it is being rewritten. After just a few days of listening to the tracks on Restful, I’m watching old patterns, ancient self definitions, falling away. Something deep is shifting, rinsing away, cleansed. A new field is opening. The tracks are truly delightful; some are peace filled and soothing, others are uplifting and enlivening. I can craft a listening experience for restoration, for focused yet spacious creative work, for joy and dance. All of the music results in a natural slowing of my breathing. There are deep changes in my sleep pattern. After years of poor sleep I’m falling asleep easily, and mostly staying asleep. And I wake gently, genuinely restored. Post recent surgery, the pain I was experiencing for ten days afterwards, evaporated. The wound completed its healing. This was, in fact, the reason I reached into the App; to settle and stabilise. With PTSD, that mattered to me. The interface of the app is elegant and easeful to use, and the choices for brainwaves, time of tracks and mood offer me a rich palette to be creative within what I’m listening to. When I reached out with a question, I was responded to swiftly, with kindness and thoroughness; the support is there. As a decades long meditation practitioner and Teacher, this app is a truly restful haven, where I’m experiencing a profound reset, and grounded spacious alive peace. ### 5/5 — Beautiful and so soothing *2022-11-07, version 1.0.65* Tahlee has the most soothing and beautiful voice. Such sounds combined to truely relax, lift, calm. Whatever the mood, there is something to listen to. ### 5/5 — The best meditation app! *2022-09-22, version 1.0.64* I love this app so much. I’ve long been a fan of Tahlee’s Meditones and this app makes them so easy and accessible. I love the features and recommendations, and the tracks are great for calming, sleeping, creating, working, meditating … basically all of life! Get the app and the subscription pronto! ### 5/5 — My daily routine now! *2022-09-12, version 1.0.64* I love listening to these Meditones in the morning & evening. They are so beautifully calming for the nervous system. I love the choice of Meditones too, for whatever mood and emotions I am feeling. Super helpful at soothing overwhelm, stress and helping me slow down in this fast paced world ❤️ ### 5/5 — “Sounds like angels” *2022-09-02, version 1.0.56* My five year old listened to one of the free tracks and asked “What is this mom? It sounds like angels!” What a beautiful way to to start and end my day! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 5/5 — Exactly what my brain has been craving *2026-05-10, version 1.0.78* Such a gorgeous immersive app, sound & experience ### 5/5 — Truly life changing!!! *2025-06-09, version 1.0.78* Not only are the songs remarkably beautiful- but it’s like a soothing massage for my brain. Nothing can calm and soothe my mind like listening to these meditones. Meditation alone is hard for me to commit to or rely on myself for- now I only need earbuds and o am absolutely transported. This app/this music NEEDS to be heard by the world. ### 5/5 — Soothing for ND brains *2024-10-10, version 1.0.78* I’ve struggled with insomnia for decades. I have PTSD, ADHD & autism so sleep and meditation have always felt out of reach (even though we all benefit from them!). This one has already helped me sleep and I found it so incredibly soothing. I’ve tried other binaural beats and meditation apps, but this one actually works for my brain and helps me switch off. The music is really soothing and allows me to sink into the other sounds. I also love that the subscription is really affordable - definitely good value, particularly compared to other sleep/meditation apps which seem to particularly target vulnerable users. ### 5/5 — Highly recommend *2024-09-20, version 1.0.78* I recommend this app to EVERYONE! ### 5/5 — A magical and brain-pleasing experience *2024-08-30, version 1.0.78* I’m multiply neurodivergent and struggle with relaxing and insomnia, which makes it difficult for me to enjoy a restful and restorative night of sleep. I’ve tried dozens of YouTube channels plugging the positive benefits of binaural beats, but I’ve always found them impossible to listen to. After discovering Restful, I now realize they were missing the magical beauty of meditones, perfected by a fellow multiply neurodivergent, trained musician, and talented artist. I was sold on this app after listening to the 10 minute sample, They Fed Me Stars. To show just how much a single 10-minute meditone impacted me, I realized I was stimming while listening—my hands and fingers reacts to music, which has always been a thing, but I was usually dancing so never placed it as a stim (I’m a late-discovered Autistic adult). And, when it hit the part towards the end where, to me, it sounded like deep, rolling thunder, coming from far away… I wish I could find the words to explain the joy that sound triggered within me, as I’ve always found rolling thunder soothing. I’m so grateful to have found a tool that actually works for my unique brain! 💖 ### 5/5 — Sanctuary to Calmness, focus and a better life *2024-08-23, version 1.0.78* In essence, Restful isn’t just an app to me. It’s a sanctuary in my pocket. The combination of binaural beats and modern ambient music with Tahlee (Composer)’s angelic voice is simply a phenomenon. The interface is elegantly designed, with a minimalist aesthetic that fosters a sense of serenity from the moment you launch the app. Navigating the various features is intuitive and effortlessly discovering the different relaxation methods(Brain waves). Apart from the function side, I just LOVE her music. My daughter has listened to Meditones (Restful music) as a bedside lullaby every night since she was 4 years old, and she turned 10 years old this year! That tells how much we love this App. As far as I know, Tahlee’s songs are exclusively available on the Restful app. Thanks Tahlee for making this app. ### 5/5 — extremely helpful *2024-08-19, version 1.0.77* I found the tracks extremely helpful in supporting my mind’s unruly ways. I am able to work, handle conflict and generally think better after adding this app to my daily practice! I’m surprised it doesn’t have more reviews. Sharing this with my community today! Thank you! ### 5/5 — Worth every penny! *2024-07-26, version 1.0.77* I cannot begin to express how grateful I am to have found this app. It has quickly become an invaluable part of my anxiety fighting toolbox. While it is not a cure-all (nothing is, unfortunately), it promotes stepping away and recombobulating in the most soothing, lovely way. I find that I use it most when I wake during the night. Instead of lying there re-hashing every failure and fear, I immediately dive in to this app and I usually fall back to sleep before the track finishes. Tahlee has an amazing voice and I listen to all of her vocal compositions regularly as I would any music artist. However, I find her instrumental compositions to have the most profound effect on my aniexty. I do not know the mechanism but, I find it impossible to think one negative thought while listening. I know it sounds strange but, I can actually feel those thoughts being held at bay…like a retaining wall for intrusive thought. I cannot and would not live without this app. Customer for life! Thank you Tahlee! ### 5/5 — My go to for chill out time *2024-05-27* I’ve been a fan of Tahlee’s work and music for a long time, and I was so excited when she and Harley released this app. It is beautiful and the music is so relaxing. It is always my go to when I need to chill out. Couldn’t recommend it more. **Developer response:** Wow Bec! Thank you so much for your beautiful review. We're so grateful and stoked you're loving Restful. :) ### 5/5 — Unable to purchase monthly membership *2024-04-08, version 1.0.75* Please help? I've loved this music from the first time I found it. I was so disappointed the monthly membership feature isn't working. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
