Gentleness and curiosity

I love Max! His demeanor and voice take you to another place…

Very useful app

Best app! Helps immediately & gives control over oneself

Crashes too much

When it works this is a great app - Max Strom and his breathing techniques are the best - but this app is extremely unreliable, it freezes up or crashes, and is unavailable just when you want it. Shame, as otherwise it would be good.

Used to be great

And then just stopped working, I have emailed the developers but I had no response. Very disappointed as I used the app daily for years.

Life changer

If you have bought this app you’re already on the path of healing.

App closes when locked screen

Would be good if I could Lock Screen and continue listening to minimise accidental stop-starts from closing my phone (I suffer from adhd so often forget). Added benefit would be it would not contribute to screen time

Update overdue

Exercises stopped working. Reinstalled but won’t restore purchase from Apple. Last update was 2 years ago.

Paid £7.99 and got NOTHING

Clearly seems like this app hasn’t been updated in years as it took my money and then didn’t allow me to access any of the content I paid for. Had to come here to find someone to contact - filled in a form - and waited…. No email back to acknowledge receipt so feel like I may as well have thrown my cash down the drain. Nice idea, I love Max Strom, but the developers need to sort this out.

Great idea if it worked

I wasted money on this app. It won’t run any of the meditations properly.

It starts the sessions and then quickly gets stuck. It’s not at all very relaxing because I have to keep restarting the session and then it just sticks again and won’t go any further. I hope that this gets fixed sooner rather than later. I would love to use the app daily, especially seeing as I paid for it. Nothing worse than paying for something that doesn’t work.

Awesome app for simple practice!

Wish there were more apps like this! To the point & highly effective even at first use. Bravo Max Strom (whose guiding voice is steady, gentle and soothing as ever!) & Inner Axis. Looking forward to working with this app longterm.

Love it

The breathing exercises provide me peace while healing from trauma

Super Helpful for Anxiety

Everyone says a breathing practice is helpful but few help you begin the journey. This app helps you take the first steps and then can continue with you on your journey
I discovered Max Strom when my anxiety was unmasked during Covid 2020. I am continually amazed that such a simple daily activity can have such benefits.
If you’re like me, you might be disciplined for a few short weeks until you feel better. Then you will stop because you “don’t need it anymore”. I’m realizing that for me, my anxiety needs daily care. Thank you, Max!

Wonderful Feeling

This app was is awesome. The breathing techniques and instructions are very easy. It really is beneficial for those who have a stressful lifestyle. I immediately felt better and more relaxed. I recommend it for anyone who needs to experience peace and serenity.

Ok

If they fixed this app it would be a 5 star review

Do it!

Such simple and effective breath work. Max is one of the best out there!
