So amazing! Thank you ### 5/5 — Beautiful and original *2021-12-11, version 1.1.8* This is a lovely app. It’s different from other sleep apps I’ve tried and its wonderful. I love it, it’s definitely helped me to sleep better, and I also enjoy listening to it at other times, just to help me relax. I love all the tracks- they’re wonderful, original and beautiful - thank you. ### 5/5 — JD *2020-11-05, version 1.1.8* I have been using this app for over a year each night. I have PTSD that I’m medicated for. For me this app has had a huge impact on my sleep. Thank goodness for BLS. Thank you to the creator of this sincerely! ### 5/5 — Sleep Restore *2020-07-24, version 1.1.8* My EMDR therapist sent me your app; so glad she did! I had been really struggling getting to sleep/ getting back to sleep. I found most of the tracks helpful & several of the recommendations became favourites: much of the music was soothing. So too were some of the spoken pieces: soothing & comforting. Important as I have c-ptsd resulting from adoption process. ‘Waiting for the morning’ is very good for throwing light on difficult early morning times..never had those processes so clearly explained. Overall an extremely useful aid for overcoming insomnia which goes way beyond standard ‘sleep hygiene’. Many thanks!

I struggle with PTSD which makes it almost impossible for me to fall asleep at night. I used to lie in bed awake for hours before falling asleep, if I slept at all but with this app, I listen to “The Night Watchman” audio and fall asleep almost instantaneously. I have listened to the audio hundreds of times and I have never made it to the end without falling asleep. This app is so so so amazing and I can not recommend it enough. ### 5/5 — This app has sorted out years of disrupted sleep *2020-03-28, version 1.1.8* I spent years waking middle of the night in a right panic and sweat for no reason. This app stopped it completely within a week/fortnight. I now sleep right through and my sleep quality is amazing! Even now with all this craziness in the world, I’m sleeping like a baby! ### 5/5 — Not Just a Sleep App *2019-08-25, version 1.1.8* I hugely recommend this APP as a coping resource for anyone suffering with the following: ADD/ADHD, anxiety, panic, insomnia, trouble falling asleep, trouble staying asleep, nightmares, night terrors, OCD, trauma, C-PTSD, PTSD, regulation, stress, trouble being mindful, trouble relaxing, so much more. This APP is my favorite goto coping tools; no matter the time of day!!! Enjoy!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ### 5/5 — Worth it *2019-07-07, version 1.1.8* I bought this app to help get me to sleep and good rest durning a stressful emotional time recently. Using the app I was able to get the much needed sleep and brain rest to be able to functionally work my way through a tough situation. It reduced anxiety by just knowing I could use the app to get back to sleep or just to take time out to reset and have some peace. Easy to use and I highly recommend. ### 5/5 — Thank you Mark *2018-08-28, version 1.1.1* This is an amazing app. I suffer with Anxiety which I wake with in the early hours of the morning. Having my device close by with this app gives me great comfort. I use it most nights & it always works. It is like having Marks help at the push of a button whenever I need it. Thank you Mark. 👌 ### 5/5 — Fell asleep *2018-07-12, version 1.1* Chronic pain sufferer with bad insomnia - Fell asleep while listening to this on the lounge - it relaxed and took me away from the pain enough for me to go to sleep thanks!! ### 5/5 — Excellent Sleep App *2018-07-11, version 1.1* I found this App to be extremely helpful with switching off my mind, relaxing, getting to sleep & back to sleep. I have been using this app for the past month & have seen some great results, highly recommended. ### 5/5 — Sleep...I missed you !!! *2018-06-17, version 1.0.1* I have had PTSD for many years and living with irregular sleep patterns. I have been using this app for 2 months and It really works. I particularly like the night watchman & waiting for morning I haven't actually heard the end of either of them as I have fallen asleep before they have finished ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Fraudsters *2022-01-02, version 1.1.8* What a waste of money. I purchased the App & when I went to use it, they asked me to upgrade? Refund please you are just shysters who are profiteering on the Covid situation. Shame on you cretins! ### 1/5 — No way to sample *2020-09-08, version 1.1.8* Amazon , almost all music selling platforms, etc. allow you to hear the song 20-30 seconds. I heard 1 song. When I wanted to try out others on the app to see what was out there, I had to pay full price for song. This doesn’t work for me. I need to know what kind of music is available with a sample before purchasing. I didn’t purchase anything. Thank you! ### 1/5 — Can’t figure out how to use the app or share with family members. *2019-02-24, version 1.1.6* Can’t figure out how to use this app or share with family members (the ad says up to 6 family members) I only have two I’d like to share it with. ### 2/5 — Not good for people with PTSD *2019-10-25, version 1.1.8* As I was floating off to sleep, to the sound of his voice, I was startled awake by the sound effect of birds taking flight. Not good for people with PTSD or easily startled. Also large difference in volume between instructional sections, which is quite jarring, especially when trying to fall asleep. ### 3/5 — Good app, but several options just don’t work *2022-09-25, version 1.1.8* Several of the playlist options have load errors, so even if you pay for premium, you’re not getting that many of the recordings. ### 3/5 — Hard to use *2022-07-21, version 1.1.8* I am trying to play from a list after purchasing the app and it plays for a few seconds and then freezes. I will try again later but I may ask for my money back. ### 4/5 — Helpful *2019-09-30, version 1.1.8* Took a couple of nights to get used to but I'm finding it very helpful. The Nightwatchman is also very helpful for falling back asleep if you wake up in the night. ### 5/5 — Game Changer *2025-11-25, version 1.2.0* This app has changed my life from non-existent sleep to a good nights sleep every night. So amazing! Thank you ### 5/5 — Corrects Sleep *2025-11-21, version 1.2.0* As a Licensed Professional Counselor & an EMDR Clinician trained through the EMDR Institute & further trained in the Marcus Method of Integrative EMDR, as well as a person who struggles with Neurological Insomnia & treats Patients so suffering, it is my professional & personal opinion that for the purposes stated, that this is the most informative & affective EMDR app available. Having suffered Pons Injury (Multiple Sclerosis) & struggling with various sleeping issues, I can put this app on, whether listening to it through my Neurotek EMDR gear, earphones/buds, or just my iPhone; it always does the job & puts me to sleep. I highly recommend it to anyone struggling to sleep for any reason. Dr Mark Grant has created this app in an affective, informative & ethical manner & I commend him for making it available to the masses. Our global society struggles greatly in this area & herein lies an easy, affective, & affordable solution. My deepest appreciation to Dr Mark Grant for the work he has done in EMDR & for making it available to the rest of us. Thank you, Dr Grant, for providing an easy means of sleep for me after 50 years of struggle. Your app was my very affective solution. Blessings to you. ### 5/5 — Works well *2025-09-06, version 1.2.0* Give me stress relief ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Huge help *2025-06-03, version 1.2.0* I am new to this app. But I am not new to insomnia and sleeplessness and anxiety. This app was introduced to me by a friend. It has been so helpful so far. What a beautiful combination to put gentle music to the BLS. Thank you. ### 5/5 — Sleep restore *2025-01-04, version 1.2.0* Edmr ### 5/5 — It’s amazing!!! *2023-06-07, version 1.2.0* The best sleep app I’ve tried. The tracks are so original and soothing. My favourite is ‘The Night Watchman’. It has made a huge difference to my ability to fall asleep, and sleep all the way through. It’s a must-have app! Thank you for creating it☺️ ### 5/5 — I can finally get to sleep or back to sleep *2023-04-13, version 1.2.0* I’m doing EMDR for PTSD and my psychologist recommended this app for my insomnia and sleep difficulties. It’s been amazing. I pop my Bluetooth sleep mask on, rain+bls and fall asleep - or more importantly back to sleep at 3am - in minutes! After 5+ years of sleep disturbances and insomnia, this app has been life changing. ### 5/5 — Mark Grant under the radar hero *2023-01-28, version 1.2.0* This app was recommended to me by a medical professional after I experienced insomnia following a protracted illness. I was fraying emotionally in a bad way but this app has really helped me to get my sleep back on track and come to terms with some issues that had previously dogged me for a long time. I feel that Mark Grant is one of life’s enablers and has true compassion for people who are struggling. I’d like to meet him! ### 5/5 — DrKristihughes *2022-11-30, version 1.1.8* Thanks ### 5/5 — What a Godsend *2022-10-17, version 1.1.8* This music, these techniques will send you into deep mesmerising sleep. And with minimal effort on your part. All you need to do, is listen (if you’re able to hear). I keep recommending this app to anyone who is struggling to sleep. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
