### 1/5 — Can’t register

*2023-08-27, version 1.1.18*

I have tried so many times to register on this app and keeps saying password as to be at least 6 characters long
This doesn’t work ……

### 1/5 — No way to contact support

*2018-11-10, version 1.1.15*

Can't use a portrait and it will not change for multiple devices.......

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2018-09-09*

Overly expensive unless you can find five other people to share with

### 2/5 — i've been trying to cancel because of financial tightening up

*2024-07-07, version 1.1.18*

this app doesn't show where you cancel. I've spent literally way much time so it keeps taking money every month even when I no longer want to do it. When you subscribe to something like this, it should be easy. It shouldn't be harder than going into a cave for 20 years I just wanted to cancel so I can use that money for food or other stuff at this point I am in fixed income come on people if you're supposed to have compassion and have some compassion for the people that would like to quit this particular app. It's sort of the nice app until you realize that you can't escape it. There's no cancel. It says menu to delete the app, but it doesn't say anything about stopping the billing and then how would I know as now I would have no trace of anything to tell if it got canceled or not it's not clear

### 2/5 — Glitches

*2020-08-16, version 1.1.17*

I can’t see some screens, like quote of the day and the most of the intentions screen.

### 2/5 — Subscription not recognized on multiple devices or website

*2019-09-17, version 1.1.16*

I subscribed on my iPhone but the iPad app and website keep asking me to ‘Subscribe’ despite recognizing my login.  I’ve emailed support 2x without response and am disappointed b/c I’ve heard such good things about Dr Jinpa and the practice.

### 4/5 — 3000???

*2018-07-30, version 1.1.12*

Классное приложение, но дорогая подписка

### 5/5 — Русский язык

*2023-02-28, version 1.1.17*

Почему пропал русский язык в медитациях, теперь нет ни одной медитации, только на английском???

### 5/5 — Mandala

*2022-10-02, version 1.1.17*

This App will NOT connect to the internet! I have paid up my continuing subscription and cannot get access to the meditations or any communication!!! HELP!!!

### 5/5 — A Just Review

*2022-03-07, version 1.1.17*

Mandala is, for all basic intents and purposes a perfect app.  It is useful, not only because it is generally highly practical in nature, but also in terms of its key style and its sense of grace.  Mandala makes for an authoritative unfoldment toward actually generations of much needed understanding for buddhism and happens to be just a marvelous expression of the buddhist conventions as we know them today.

Taken together as a rather seamless whole with a candid style of perfection as almost only buddhism may warrant, a membership subscription to the app would be nearly indispensable for the average student of buddhism in our world and for our times.

While its study may be quite difficult for some, (At least it was in my own case at first), this would be something to be grateful for and opens up an entire realm of possibilities for a student of the advanced buddhist systems and its tenets.  Just remarkable!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2021-08-28, version 1.1.17*

Love the talks and teachings

### 5/5 — Wonderful but please add Apple Health

*2021-04-21, version 1.1.17*

Love it and all the incredible teachers. Would love it even more if I could track my meditation practice/time through my Apple Health app.

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2020-06-27, version 1.1.17*

There are a variety of exceptional apps available now, but one distinguishing aspect of this one is the clarity of the explanations underlying the intentional training in meditation! The clear, concise teachings are profound! I highly recommend this app and Thupten Jinpa’s book A Fearless Heart: How The Courage To Be Compassionate Can Transform Our Lives. imagine if we all had this training in our formative years in high school...

### 5/5 — Thank you🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

*2020-06-07, version 1.1.17*

Nothing gives me more pleasure and joy than Listening to HH the Dalai Lama and Thupten Jinpa la, my reason for listening and understanding of Buddhism is purely due to Thupten Jinpa la’s explanation of it.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart .
May you live long to continue, enlighten and teach us.

### 5/5 — Here for you

*2020-02-12, version 1.1.17*

May you be new to meditation of a lifetime practitioner, there is support here for you. Give it a try when starting a new habit or when needing connection.

### 5/5 — love this

*2019-03-23, version 1.1.16*

love the people who created it. 
thank you

### 5/5 — Best authentic guided meditations

*2018-09-03, version 1.1.13*

This translator of the Dalai Lama offers meditation basics to the busy working person. Enough here for steady daily practice.  Peace-filled voice.  Worth the small charge.  Tools such as reminders and digital prayer beads.  Longer lectures and book list.
