I’ve been changed

Ever since using the Soaak app, I have slept better, focused better and felt more aligned. I didn’t know frequencies could have such a profound effect on my life. I don’t know how I didn’t know about this earlier! Thank you sincerely, Soaak.

Noticeable effect

I normally use this app when I have a headache or migraine pain, feel sick, need help falling asleep, focus & creativity while working from home, etc. The price is rather high ($30 per month) but I use it almost every day for something. Sometimes I will play it for students who are struggling with something, and sometimes for my own teens when they don’t want to talk about issues. I had canceled my subscription via Apple a few days ago because of the price, but I might just have to continue it because of today. I have been struggling a lot with depression over the last few days and it got really bad. I started playing the frequency to fight depression, and within 30 minutes (I usually listen on a loop) the sense of dread and impending doom had lifted significantly. Of course, this could be a placebo effect, but it could also be due to my listening frequently. Things like this don’t normally happen to me, so I wanted to share with everyone.

Good luck cancelling

This app is an expensive monthly subscription. I’ve searched the app and website to cancel and can’t find how to cancel. Feels shady.

Bizarre experience

Sign up was a bit clunky, but the lack of onboarding is what really shines. No clue how to use the app—and no instructions. Even more baffling is that the app seems completely unusable without a subscription. Every single thing I click in the app requires premium. Further, I would never BUY premium because I still don’t have the SLIGHTEST CLUE about what I’d be paying for. I am surprised this app has so many positive reviews; it makes me think that they must be insiders or beta testers given access to the app, because I can’t imagine who, like myself, is going to download an app from an unclear ad, go through zero onboarding, and then purchase a subscription for who knows how much.

Rip Off

Paid $29.99 to use the frequencies. Now they are offering a lower rate for new customers. 😂 Nice!

Bugs to fix

I absolutely love Michael Beckwith and everything he stands for—that’s the main reason I signed up for the Soak app (twice now, with the paid version). His teachings are powerful and deeply inspiring, and I genuinely want to engage with the programs and talks.

Unfortunately, the app itself just doesn’t function properly. The biggest issue is with the programs: they only ever unlock day one. Even though I’ve been subscribed for about 20 days, every time I return to a program, it resets back to day one. Occasionally it progressed to day three, but then reverted again. So essentially, you never gain access to the full content—even with the paid subscription.

This seems like a major bug in the iPhone app that really needs to be fixed because those multi-day programs are the most valuable part of the experience.

As for the frequency tracks, I personally haven’t noticed any benefit—if anything, a few actually made me feel more anxious than calm. The affirmations and talks themselves, however, are wonderful (at least the parts I could access).

If the technical bugs are resolved, I would happily re-subscribe, because the content and intention behind the app are good. I would also love to see longer guided meditations.

No

The sounds made me so uncomfortable. They say “clinically proven frequencies” but there’s no research. Their website just has a bunch of word salad to make you think the sounds work.

Additional charge for sleep

Got a free trial but then got charged for the sleep frequency. Not a huge deal but also there was zero transparency that was a separate charge. And I never had to give an approval for an additional charge which seems like a glitch or a big oversight.

App does not work

I’m trying to use the free trial from Dear Gabby to enjoy for a month. I was able to do one frequency but I was trying to select the 21 day challenge but a pop up comes up and says there is something wrong. I am also not able to see the frequency library or the meditation library. Maybe because I’m using it as a free trial? But how am I suppose to know if I want to buy it if it’s stressing me out rather than helping me?

Disappointed

I was so excited to try this app. I signed up for the $5.99 a month plan thinking I would be able to listen to the frequencies. It only gives you one frequency for $5.99. Then the app freezes and the frequency doesn’t play for the time I select. I can’t even get assistance unless I pay $29.99. So I have given someone $5.99 and have nothing in exchange. Highly disappointed.

You get nearly zero for the $4.99 plan

It’s astounding how brazen some od these anti stress product companies are. In this case you can’t find out what the sleep well plan clearly includes upfront. No trial. For $4.99 you get one bizarre tone on a scrolling list containing many others. The other tones? They are part of the $29.99 a month plan. It’s crazy, the idea of $360 a year for true access to the ideas here in any significant amount.

Terrible customer service

I rarely write reviews, but I had to comment on the terrible user experience with billing with this company. I first purchased a membership based on a promo program over the holidays. Getting 6 months at a discounted rate. The process to activate membership at the discount was brutal and I had to contact customer service multiple times to get it all squared away. My 6 month membership was for January-July. Yet, they have charged me $29.99 on three separate occasions for no reason. The last two charges have received no response to date for reimbursement. They may or may not have a great product, but in my opinion the app is nowhere near worth the headache of purchase.

Horrible from top to bottom

First of all they steal your money. Second of all the app hardly works. DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Waste

I purchased the lowest-tier subscription expecting access to at least a few useful features, but it only unlocks one frequency. That’s extremely limiting, especially for a paid plan. The value just isn’t there. I feel misled and wouldn’t recommend subscribing unless more is included or clearly communicated up front.

Very frustrating

I have had this app for a bit now but for the last few days it will not work. I paid $29.99 for a monthly membership and it keeps saying sign up for a 7 day free trial when I click on anything even though I am logged in and have already been charged for the membership. Money should be refunded if this isn’t resolved.

Frustrated not relaxed…

A friend sent me the podcast about this app and I was very excited to try it. I have tried multiple times to set up the membership both on the website and app. I am now up frustrated and the complete opposite of what this app should be doing. Work out whatever coding because this is just disappointing and I can’t believe I am up nearly 2 hours past my bedtime for this “wonderful app”.

You must be crazy.

You are crazy if you think I would pay for this without at least a three day trial.You

Beware

Beware when signing up for this app - I have had nothing but problems with their frequencies constantly cutting out, not playing for the selected amount of time, and just issues in general even opening up the app. I finally canceled and received confirmation, and an email that I would not be charged again. Of course I was charged again the following month. Upon further review, I noticed that I was never billed at the promo rate I signed up for, but for the full price. It seems like a money grab to
me, and I would be very cautious if you choose to sign up.

Really glitchy

I love the frequencies but the app is always glitching. I often can’t open the app and have deleted and redownloaded and now can’t even login. Which is a bummer for the price per month to not be able to use the app for days on end

Not recommended

I signed up and paid. After checking out the APP they wanted more money for more features in the APP. Come on now! Not worth it. Better off getting sound frequencies on YouTube
