It's taken my anxiety from a 10 to a 4 in a week. ### 5/5 — Gives new perspective to your worries *2014-03-08* I signed up to this app without really realising I was worrying about work quite a lot. It says listen to it for several days to get an effect which I have done. Now whenever I feel myself fretting about whether I can deliver on a project, instead of working late into the night and getting overwhelmed with anxiety I simply say to myself "this worry isn't real". I stop and go and do something like take a walk. It has made me cope with an enormous workload with a better sense of humour and perspective. I also like the relaxing place in my head that the hypnosis has created which now gives me a feeling if peace and relaxation by circling my thumbs. ### 5/5 — Life Saver! *2014-02-28* I can not say enough about this app. It works. I am able to deal with situations that used to bring near disabling anxiety. As a side benefit it is great for putting you in such a state of relaxation you can go to sleep very easily. I wished I could give it six stars. ### 5/5 — Almost Always Fall Asleep To It *2014-02-07, version 1.300* Great app. Why doesn't it have more reviews? I love this thing. ### 5/5 — I love it! *2013-08-01, version 1.300* This ap puts me to rest in times of anxiety. ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2013-07-17, version 1.300* I use this app with my earpods to help me fall asleep. His voice is so soothing that my anxiety lowers and always I fall asleep during the meditation! ### 5/5 — The Best Hypnosis So Far! *2013-06-11* This has been a life saver! Love how it works to lull you to sleep and if you take a long time to get to sleep, this app hangs in there with you. Nice and long to do the trick. It is the best one out there, I have tried them all! ### 5/5 — Great app *2013-05-15, version 1.099* So soothing, so relaxing! Thanks so much for making this! The voice is so reassuring and calm. ### 5/5 — So relaxing *2013-03-21, version 1.099* Listened to this each night for the cycle and it has made such a difference to my thinking. Great app :) ### 5/5 — Good app *2013-02-09, version 1.098* I have tried many apps like this one and this one is very good. Very helpful! ### 5/5 — JPM *2013-01-06, version 1.098* Love this app ,it's awesome,must have app👍👍👍 ### 5/5 — Soothing *2013-01-03* Voice and background noise is so soothing. Best app ever. Really calms me :) love it! :) ### 5/5 — Very refreshing! *2012-12-30* I'm not sure I have been listening to the meditation long enough to notice any changes in my subconscious but I feel refreshed after each time I listen! I also use the focus meditation as a study break. It's a great way to get my mind off school for twenty minutes. I highly recommend these meditations. They are worth the price. ### 5/5 — Very effective *2012-11-24, version 1.098* I've been testing out a whole range of meditation aps to calm my nerves and help me to sleep after having a head injury. This one, for me, was the most customizable in the way of settings (play with nature sounds or without, have it wake you up after or stay asleep... Etc). I am now very interested in trying their other themed meditations. Definitely worth the download. ### 5/5 — One of the best available... *2012-11-17* Having used a few hypnosis apps before this is the last one I'll buy for anxiety. The best voice ever for hypnosis and extremely soothing, always flat out before the end. The options are also a nice touch for customising the experience. Many thanks. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Anxiety Free *2014-09-06, version 1.400* I wanted it to help me fall asleep. I fell asleep immediately, but after long pauses in his voice again and again, it would startle me when he started to talk again. Then, at the beginning of the sleep induction part, it was so suddenly very loud, that I was jangled and very far from sleep. It could have bern great but the long pauses and then booming voice at the end were a disaster! Too bad, for something that had the potential to be very good. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2012-08-05* Does not work on my I phone as it stops after about 30 seconds. ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2012-03-19, version 1.098* App closes instantly after being opened. I've never been able to actually use it. I'd like my money back. ### 1/5 — Didn't get it *2011-12-21, version 1.094* The induction just didn't work for me. Not everyone can relate to a quiet beach and drifting off in some boat. Automatically you wonder how your getting back,lol,no joke. Sorry but it didn't work for me. The ones he charges for are exactly the same, so at least you know. ### 3/5 — Great but... *2015-06-24, version 1.400* This app is great-- very relaxing... EXCEPT... When his voice gets SO LOUD at the end when he counts back from 5, it jolts me awake and negates all the calming relaxation I just experienced. Please fix this!!! ### 3/5 — ;) *2013-12-18* Worth the money ### 3/5 — Trying it out.. *2012-05-09* I have tried numerous apps. I have agoraphobia. Panic attacks have been my life's greatest struggle. I am hoping Erick will come out with something specifically for this type of panic problem. For now, this app is keeping me relaxed. But there's no way it works one time for me. I have to use it several times a night and day because I firmly want to believe this will help me. If your reading this, please make something SPECIFIC for agoraphobic folks like myself, Erick. Please. You can't imagine the debilitating feeling of agoraphobia. You just just can't imagine how it keeps such a strong hold on individuals to the point they can't leave the security of their homes. It's horrible! ### 4/5 — Very helpful! *2015-02-28, version 1.400* Use it quite often. Good addition in my anti anxiety "tool belt." ### 4/5 — Great meditation *2012-10-25, version 1.098* I love it for the mornings in the subway on my way to work. It helps me meditate and then i am done I feel amazing !!! ### 4/5 — Love it, but... *2012-06-23* Absolutely love this app! I feel completely relaxed & wake up refreshed. I say the "but" part in regards to OTHER downloads of this app from their store. I had problems downloading 2 & can't download another despite multiple days of trying. Either fix your downloads or give refunds to frustrated customers. I know I can't be the only one having these issues. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — App owner for 7 years *2020-06-18* Stop looking cuz this B the app for U. hPuts me right to sleep!!! ### 5/5 — Countering Tinnitus *2019-08-30* I am using this at night as a counter measure for a recent affliction of severe tinnitus that came out of no where. Having these soothing sounds play at night helps. **Developer response:** I love it when I feel relaxed and soothed. Enojoy ### 5/5 — Great! They all work. *2019-08-04* All of the apps I’ve tried really do work! I was skeptical about it before. **Developer response:** Keep Listening and enjoy ### 5/5 — Love this app *2015-12-29* I like to listen to this as I fall asleep. I'm nearly 9 months pregnant and have been doing this meditation for about half of my pregnancy. Wish I'd started years ago! I think it has really helped me stay calm and balanced. I love how customizable it is - the sounds, induction time, and sleep/wake modes. I personally prefer the long induction, stream sounds, and sleep mode. I purchased several meditation apps and this one is my favorite. ### 5/5 — Helps a lot *2015-09-29, version 1.400* Very relaxing ### 5/5 — Anxiety free *2015-08-08, version 1.400* I really like this version- no nonsense- great words of wisdom for a more peaceful life. Nice voice and calming music ! ### 5/5 — GREAT. *2015-07-16* Great app but at the begining of the app where he says about taking a deep breath. He doesent give you enough time to do it. ie when you start to deep breath in he Is asking you to exhale too quickly. Towards the end of the session when he is talking it goes louder way to loud. I have to turn the volume down. Other than that its a good app. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2014-08-20* Love how it has sleep and wake modes and the hypnosis works for me! Lots of options for other hypnosis needs as well in the store 🌹 they cost money but for me they've been worth every penny ### 5/5 — Release!!! *2014-08-03* This app is amazing! I have sat and heard the entire thing a few times when extremely stressed but fall asleep every night with it on repeat now :) In the mornings especially, I am a lot calmer now and I believe it's down to moths of this app being played so many times at bedtime :) ### 5/5 — Great App *2014-05-01, version 1.300* Easy to listen too, on day 4 of my 21 days. Hoping this keeps helping me on my path to getting my life back --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
