### 4/5 — An essential for me

*2023-06-16, version 2.0.3*

Beautiful visuals, relaxing sound and helpful breathing guidances.

### 3/5 — Getting old

*2023-05-28, version 2.0.3*

Nothing new added in YEARS!  Used to be a fav app but now…. it’s just kinda blah

### 3/5 — Disappointed

*2022-01-25, version 2.0.1*

I love this app greatly. It’s been a go-to when I have guests over or when I want to work and have something on in the background.  I believed in this app BEFORE it was a monthly subscription and actually purchased specific videos. However, despite having already purchased those, I guess I’m not able to access them anymore since I don’t have a subscription… that just feels wrong. It feels like robbery. Incredibly isappointed in that regard, otherwise the app itself is magnificent.

### 4/5 — hahaha 😆 hast doch heute nicht mal nach der und du hast ja noch ein bisschen zeit weil du hast es

### 4/5 — Nice meditation aid

*2020-08-12, version 2.0.1*

Thanks for helping during covid

### 4/5 — No HD

*2020-05-05, version 1.9.5*

Thats only issue was video dose not good quality not HD

### 3/5 — ❤️ Sky Tripping—it’s beautiful; however...

*2020-04-29, version 1.9.5*

Updated review:  PLEASE allow us to purchase individual volumes for a one-time fee!  We cannot afford so many expensive yearly subscriptions!  Then, it will be back to 5 stars.
Previous review:  It's challenging to find natural scenery video apps like this with just calming natural sounds and no music.  I love it for relaxing; looks great on my iPads.  Videos are so professionally shot, slowly skimming above the earth.  Highly recommend Sky Tripping!

### 2/5 — Could be Great!

*2018-06-02, version 1.7.4*

Jumped on board with this app for use as an entertaining screen saver in our business and on household TVs during our parties.  After a couple of years now... way too much money for such a limited number of videos.  I was bored over a year ago.  Designers, you really need to add a new video / location every month to be competitive.  Or drop your price to $0.99/month.

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2018-04-20, version 1.7*

Some of the most beautiful vistas you will ever see!

### 5/5 — Love it

*2018-04-20, version 1.5.1*

Gorgeous!!

### 5/5 — Gorgeous views

*2018-04-20, version 1.7*

...without leaving your house! Adds great ambiance to my home!

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2018-04-19, version 1.7*

Love having this playing in the room whether it’s just me or if I’m entertaining. It’s fantastic views and always comes up in conversation when I have it going.

### 5/5 — Best Event App

*2018-04-19, version 1.7*

This app is one of a kind. Have people over and not sure how to set a comfortable ambience/mood? Sure your mixtape is fire, but what about the guests in the background? My wife and I flip Sky Tripping on and without fail, our guests ask us where we got the beautiful screen savers and stunning footage. Our daughter has “quiet time” in the afternoons and on Sundays and we’ll flip Sky Tripping on for the white noise of the waves and the serene setting of the California redwoods. Developers are easy to contact and have answered my questions quickly and understandingly. Love it. 5/5.

### 5/5 — Gorgeous

*2018-04-19, version 1.7*

Beautiful content!

### 5/5 — Very Calming

*2018-04-19, version 1.7*

My 9 year old son scraped his knee and I needed to clean out his wound. While doing so, he cried hysterically and nothing I said would calm him down. Even after everything was done he continued. Then I remembered, that I had downloaded the Sky Tripping app. I opened it and let him choose the scenery. I instructed him to match his breathing with the bubble in the corner and within seconds he calmed down. By the time the minute was over, he was completely calm and stayed that way. Great app! Love the footage of all the beautiful scenery and the breathing bubble really helps to calm down and relax. Now each time my son needs to calm down, and can’t on his own, he asks to use the app.

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2018-04-19, version 1.7*

It’s like the ride souring over California at Disneyland except you can do it in your own living room.

### 1/5 — Horrible experience with activation of subscription.

*2025-08-17, version 2.0.3*

Purchased annual subscription and it will not allow me to activate the subscription from the email they sent me to activate. I have made multiple attempts to activate and no success. Is there any support for this problem?

### 1/5 — Pulled a fast one.

*2020-02-21, version 1.9.1*

I did a free trial and enjoyed this app.  Then, from my Apple TV or offered me the app for $19.99 one time.  Or so it said.  

My Apple subscriptions are billing me $5.99 a month for this. 

Not cool.

I don’t know how to explain I’m more detail what the description stated. There were three of us sitting there.  

There were multiple screens with different prices. When I opted out I was offered this deal.  Good to know it is not your content?

### 1/5 — WORST APP EVER!!!!

*2019-04-30, version 1.7.7*

Don't waste your $$ on this app. You'll regret it. Ease of cancellation is a joke!

### 1/5 — Absolutely frustrating!!!

*2019-02-23, version 1.7.4*

I’ve spent the past several days trying to fix the Apple TV app. 

Although it acknowledges that I have the $59.99 subscription, which includes meditation, every single time I go to do the meditation, it requests that I sign up for an account. 

I have followed every single instruction, but the app just keeps taking me in circles. If I open the app on my mobile device i.e. iPhone or iPad, it works perfectly. If I try to open it on Apple TV, forget it. It simply won’t allow me to watch the meditations. 

I’ve tried deleting the app then restoring it onto Apple TV. That doesn’t work. When the only reason I paid for the annual subscription, is for the meditation on Apple TV, I am left feeling extremely frustrated.

### 1/5 — Visually stunning, but...

*2018-03-10, version 1.5.1*

I love apps like these that offer beautiful landscapes as a calming distraction, but I would never use it enough to warrant a monthly subscription. I can understand a one time fee of the volumes you like best, but not a monthly subscription.  Let me know when you have one-time-purchase options.

### 1/5 — Shady cancellation policy

*2018-02-22, version 1.5.1*

Tried this app out and wasn’t super impressed with the offerings. Nice visuals, doubt if they are 4K. The ones I really wanted were not available and didn’t seem like they would be anytime soon. I forgot to cancel during my free trial (my bad) so I went to go cancel just now but it won’t let me. After reading the description I find that they DON’T allow you to cancel during an active subscription period, only on the day before that period ends. So basically you have one day a month to get in to cancel and that’s a pretty disgusting practice if you ask me. I’ll never recommend this app because of it and I’ll never try any app from this developer and I’ll be sure to tell everyone to steer clear of them. Disappointing.

### 1/5 — App Doesn't Work

*2018-01-17, version 1.5.1*

Nothing it asks me to do works.

### 1/5 — Sky Scam

*2017-12-29, version 1.5.1*

This app has been charging me a monthly subscription but not allowing me to access any content. And I can't even stop it from billing my iTunes. This app is a scam.

### 1/5 — Confusing Interface

*2017-12-14, version 1.5.1*

Although the visuals are very good. Trying to figure out which album to watch is confusing. And with several “pay” options it is even more difficult to figure out. Then that meditation part makes it even more confusing. I gave up. You can not loop them either. Or I could not find it in any settings. The human interface is just to complicated for a screen saver app.

### 1/5 — Stay away. After you buy you still have to pay.

*2017-11-09, version 1.5.1*

This app didn’t even load up. You are supposed to get at least one volume without signing up. Not true app opens and nothing happens unless you pay....again. Do not buy this app as you won’t be able to use it at all unless you pay again. Very shady tactics to get your money.

### 5/5 — Outstanding

*2026-04-29, version 2.0.3*

This is an awesome lifestyle app

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2022-04-12, version 2.0.1*

Great to just keep on & mellow out. Only one problem. On the Apple TV version. I’m constantly having to enter my access code to relink it to my subscription account.

### 5/5 — Visual to go with Endel soundscape

*2021-09-11, version 2.0.1*

I enjoy the nature videos. Most of the videos are moving forward through the scene.  A few are backwards like looking through the back window of a car, which I would like to delete from my options.  I like the group choices of forest, water, desert, and winter. 

Video best with sound scapes from Endel.

### 5/5 — Helps with depression  and stress

*2020-07-18, version 2.0.0*

This app is amazing, it helps with stress and anxiety and depression for me. I would highly recommend this app for people. It’s very calming and relaxing.

### 5/5 — Simple yet very calming

*2020-06-19, version 1.9.5*

I love this app. It’s so calming, and I notice a real change when I use it regularly, even for a few minutes a day. I usually try to get 10-20 minutes a day, and it’s such a pleasure to use. Keep up the great work!

### 5/5 — Such amazing footage and PEACEFUL!!!

*2020-03-20, version 1.9.3*

I downloaded this app when I got my Apple TV 4. I’ve loved the beautiful footage and the peaceful calm that comes into the room when it’s running. My kids beg me to leave it on at night after family prayers. Keep it coming !!

### 5/5 — Great video

*2018-10-06, version 1.7.4*

Beautiful scenes that are captivating.  Planned on TV for background pictures, was great conversation

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2018-07-17, version 1.7.4*

Great app, so relaxing. Does it’s job!

### 5/5 — Beautiful Newer Volumes!

*2018-06-09, version 1.7.4*

The newer volumes are beautiful!  Visitors always compliment when I have them on my big screen.  I would love to see a Hawaii volcano set.

### 5/5 — Exactly what I was looking for

*2018-04-21, version 1.7*

I stumbled on this app, saw it was free, thought I’d give it a try. I have been working on coping with my stress and anxiety and these little meditations with some of the most beautiful scenery ever (with the breathing thing in the corner) calms me every time. Shared with my boss. He loves it too! Thank you!
