### 1/5 — Very disappointing

*2024-08-01, version 8.0.9*

I really liked this app and the very knowledgeable and professional content. I was even happy to accept the paid for subscription but I have been unable to access it despite having a subscription and they do not reply to emails.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2024-07-17, version 8.0.9*

Won’t even let me sign in

### 5/5 — Great overall app

*2024-01-29, version 8.0.9*

This app has so many great resources covering sleep, anxiety, long covid and procrastination. Within each topic there’s reading guides and listening guides. They also do online workshops / webinars which are really good. Would highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Stops panic/anxiety rapidly

*2022-02-19, version 5.1.3*

This app is like having a pocket therapist. The search feature is excellent and the bite sized chapters of the audio guides makes listening super convenient. 

Very impressed that the app content is consistently growing and evolving and that featured guides often correspond to dates in the mental health calendar. 
It works as a regular stress nullifier and as an interesting and ever expanding resource into one’s own psyche.

### 2/5 — Oh no!

*2022-02-01, version 5.1.2*

I have loved this app for years and when they started to charge me I thought, ok it’s worth it. But oh no! They have updated the app and changed it. The mindful body scan was a really relaxing sounding man and it’s now a woman. I know if you have just downloaded the app this will not matter to you but it’s just not the same anymore. Gutted because I will deffo cancel my subscription now.

### 5/5 — Helps me manage my mental health

*2021-12-20, version 5.1.1*

Excellent audio guides for managing my anxiety at work.

### 2/5 — Used to be better

*2021-12-05, version 5.1.0*

Once upon a time I would have given this app 5 stars but now I can only give it two. 

This was my favourite mindfulness app for many years until the major overhaul ruined the entire thing :(

I mostly just used the guided mindfulness meditations. They were simple, practical exercises, narrated in the most calming relaxed voice imaginable.  They have been a huge part of my recovery from severe depression and anxiety over the past 5 years. Probably saved my life a couple of times. 

Occasionally I used the thought reframing tools but not often… I find that stuff a bit too prescriptive. 

Anyway, I’m bitterly disappointed that my favourite guided exercises are now buried below a lot of other fluff that’s been added to the app.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2021-10-15, version 5.0.0*

This app immediately got me out of an anxiety attack and has taught me so much. I love it

### 5/5 — Best companion

*2021-10-10, version 5.0.0*

I have used this app regularly over the last 2 years to manage anxiety. The breathing exercises have made a massive difference to me and also lots of good content on understanding stress and learning how to manage it.

### 2/5 — You have to pay for almost everything

*2021-06-20, version 4.01*

The free things you can use are pretty basic readings and breathing exercises you can find online. Everything else you need to pay £1.99. Maybe the app itself is better than 2 stars, but I'll never know as I could barely use any of it. I'm not a fan of apps that are free to download and then charge you for almost everything once you're in the app.
