### 4/5 — Finally fixed

*2026-07-28*

July 27
It took over a month, but the app is finally up and running again. I’ve lost a month on my subscription and I’ve asked them to extend my subscription by a month as well when it runs out


July 20
The support people at Ritual have been silent for another week now. Again, no fixes. This is the only app that I have that doesn’t work and for $60 a year. I would say that was called stealing.






The app used to be good until it started crashing. Now you can’t even get into it. Written the people and no response. I’ve used the app iOS help on this thing and you won’t even let you log into your account. I’ve done everything possible on my end delete reinstall, latest updates, etc. nothing works. I’ve written them and received no response. All this for a $70 a year app. Which used to be good. Now it’s worthless because you can’t even use it.

**Developer response:** We’re so sorry for the frustration this has caused. Ritual is meant to be a place you can return to for steadiness and practice, and we know how upsetting it is when the app isn’t reliable. We’re in direct contact with you and continuing to work toward a full resolution. Our latest app release fixed several causes of crashing, and we’re actively working to solve the remaining issues.

### 3/5 — Leslie

*2026-06-21*

I love starting my day with the Lectio Divina, but have recently had problems with the app closing down before it can even get started. Often multiple times. I’ve deleted the app and reloaded it and it closed out before I could sign back in. I would love to get this fixed so I can give a 5 star rating.

**Developer response:** Hi there - We're sorry you have been experiencing issues with your Lectio Divina practice. Please email us at team@ritualmedia.com and we would love to help get this issue resolved.

### 2/5 — Hard to understand

*2025-08-10, version 3.0.4*

I think the user interface is difficult to make sense of and there’s no help available. Was hoping for better

### 3/5 — Update is not working properly

*2025-07-28, version 3.0.2*

The new update has more glitches than the old format! So frustrating!

### 2/5 — Costly

*2025-07-16, version 2.11.1*

Too expensive, bummer. When you open up the app it immediately wants my information, asks questions and only mentions the cost.

### 2/5 — I can’t get the app to work any more.

*2024-11-18, version 2.5.1*

It opens, but when I click on the link to play a selection, nothing happens. Help!

### 5/5 — My favorite way to start each day

*2024-08-27*

I’ve begun making a point to listen to Ritual as part of my routine each morning. The headspace it helps put me into sets me up for all of the day’s events, both positives and challenges. I especially appreciate how the Daily Rituals are available before I wake up each morning.

### 5/5 — I sleep so well now

*2024-07-14*

I like to listen to sessions in bed. It’s my nighttime routine that helps me slow down and reflect after each busy day. I sleep so well now.

### 5/5 — Beautiful reprieve!

*2024-05-13*

I am so grateful for this app! It takes all of the things I have been trying to include in my mindfulness practice by making them accessible in one place. Poetry, Lectio, Gratitude spoken by women whose voices linger with me throughout the day. It brings me a beautiful reprieve from the anxiety that can hijack my thoughts. A truly worthy investment!

### 5/5 — Just what I needed

*2024-04-29*

This app brings all my favorite spiritual teachers onto one platform. This now my favorite way to start the morning and get a boost during the day. Thank you for everyone involved in creating this beautiful experience!

### 2/5 — No ritual from Ritual

*2024-04-22, version 1.27.2*

App isn’t intuitive. Difficult to find information. Plus it doesn’t work well. I clicked on the wrong link by accident and can’t click out of it. Sigh.

### 5/5 — Healing

*2024-04-17, version 1.27.1*

Thanks you very much Alex Elle!🙏🏾🌹🥹🫶🏾

### 4/5 — Terrific service

*2024-03-28*

I have paid the yearly subscription TWICE in the past couple of weeks, but it it not letting me access content. And I have no recourse to let anyone know. $100 down the drain.

Update - I found the email address and contacted the developers.  After several emails, they were able to work their magic and now I have access. They also made sure that I only paid once. Thank you!

**Developer response:** Hi there - We are sorry for this frustrating experience. Paying for something you can't access is not how it should work, especially not twice. Typically, Apple prevents duplicate subscriptions. Our email address is team@ritualmedia.com. You can also find it on our website ritual.io. Please email us so we can make this right for you.

### 5/5 — Needed

*2024-03-02, version 1.26.6*

This is so needed in my life right now! Love this app!

### 3/5 — Love it and hate it (the crashes)

*2024-02-22*

I have been using the app for months now and love the content. What I don’t like is that is won’t load the playlist and it crashes when I try to see the playlist. I’ve been in touch with support and I have loaded the most recent version but it continues to crash on me every time! I hope this is fixed soon.

### 5/5 — New discovery

*2024-02-10, version 1.26.4*

I just discovered this app and it is daily refreshment for my soul. Thank you for this awesome gift!

*2026-07-10, version 3.8.2*

### 1/5 — App crashes within 5 seconds

*2026-06-29, version 3.8.0*

This happened over 20 times when I was trying to set up the account and there is no way to contact the developer to fix the issue.

### 1/5 — Phone number required?

*2025-09-12*

Yikes, what do they want to do with your data? 😢

### 1/5 — disappointing

*2025-07-09, version 2.11.1*

Save $59 and go to soundcloud for all this.  Not worth it.

### 1/5 — Opened app for first time

*2024-01-25, version 1.26.2*

Said I had already used up my listens and wanted to charge me. Hadn’t heard any.

### 1/5 — Free trial doesn’t work

*2023-02-24*

I was able to sample some of the content but I’m limited to only 3 free sessions.  I liked it enough to purchase it but I’m unable to do that because my free trial doesn’t end until March 7.  There is no help option on this app.  I replied to their welcome email message but got no reply.  Very disappointed in this app.  I’ll stick with the Pray app and give Hallow a try since it has some of the same content I was looking for.

**Developer response:** Hi there, 

Thank you for the feedback. We are constantly working to improve our platform and add practices to our library from trusted experts. We hope you'll check out the platform again soon!

### 1/5 — Bugs

*2023-02-10, version 1.21.4*

Since downloading, this app seems to have “randomly” trigger opening itself as it pleases. No option to end its redirect once it starts. Overrides all current actions & phone settings. 
Continues after deleting app? 

Not looking forward to making ritual of monitoring the impact that this has had on my iPhone  😒

### 1/5 — Scam

*2022-01-22, version 1.19.1*

This app did not state that it was a purchase. It did not list the price. Once you download it, then you realize they charge you $7.99. It is a rip off and it's a scam and shame on them and shame on Apple! Walk away. Don't do it!

### 1/5 — Just no…

*2021-10-28, version 1.18.3*

Touting itself as the intersection between science and faith, this comes across more as a secular meditation app. If you’re a progressive Christian and don’t understand the whole “morality” thing, this might be right up your alley

### 1/5 — Broken Promises

*2021-08-30, version 1.18.1*

The App is advertised as having ritual presentations by well known people.  When I subscribed, none of those people had presentations in the Library.  Don’t be fooled by the false advertising!

and the idea of dread and gratitude

### 5/5 — Pure, Still, Spirituality

*2025-08-20, version 3.0.6*

I’ve just spent a week exploring Ritual on the Free Trial. I’ve found it to be such a beautiful, quiet and still place for spiritual growth. The content is deep, with an exceptionally diverse roster of guides. I’d say one of the best aspects of Ritual is that it does not suffer from the overstimulation of too much content and unnecessary features. It just allows space for the rituals you came here to create and experience. It is very supportive of daily life. As my trial ends, I asked myself ‘would I miss Ritual?’ and the answer was that I definitely would miss this app - so now my first year’s subscription of Ritual lies ahead of me, and I’m grateful and excited.

### 5/5 — Crucial

*2025-07-05, version 2.11.1*

The gentle words here made this tough old bird cry. Thank you, Anne.

### 5/5 — Wellbeing practices

*2025-06-30*

Transforming!

### 5/5 — Facebook ad was actually positive ha

*2025-01-16*

I am familiar with the founder of flourishing and wellbeing from experience with a previous project.  So I was curious.

I have tried a few features and look forward to exploring more 

Thank you

### 5/5 — Excellent!

*2025-01-08*

This app is an excellent resource for reflecting on your life and journey in a way that invites you to new areas of insight and growth and opportunity.  I love the variety of meaningful resources, authors, topics that truly connect with where we are in meaningful ways.

### 5/5 — Peaceful

*2025-01-05, version 2.6.3*

Just joining it and already it's a delight!

### 5/5 — A pause that refreshes

*2024-12-17, version 2.6.2*

I’m often in a hurry. 
Today sudden canceled plans gave me a moment  to stop and breathe. This guided reflection was just what I needed.

### 5/5 — Hopeful and Helpful

*2024-11-22*

Ritual has it all! If you are looking to enrich your prayer life or just become healthier spiritually and mentally, I highly recommend tthis app. It has something for everyone! The contributors are the best of the best. Feeling grateful!

### 5/5 — Remaining free

*2024-11-07, version 2.5.1*

The programs aided me in remaining free in the post election blah.
