N'hésitez pas à contacter support@themindfulnessapp.com pour plus de précisions. The Mindfulness App Team ### 3/5 — Needs a playlist/repeat option for insomniacs! *2026-04-24, version 7.5.7* Needs a playlist/repeat option! If you’re new to mindfulness and meditation you might not be relaxed/it may not have ‘worked’ after one play and you have to find your phone/laptop to press play again! Love the content but for this reason won’t be purchasing. ### 3/5 — Trop d anglais *2026-04-06* Pas mal mais les histoires pour dormir sont en Anglais j ai donc arrêté l essai. Prix élevé. **Developer response:** Merci pour votre retour ! Nous sommes désolés que le contenu ne soit pas entièrement en français. Nous travaillons à enrichir notre bibliothèque. Pour toute question sur l'abonnement, contactez-nous à support@themindfulnessapp.com 🙏 The Mindfulness App Team ### 1/5 — X *2026-01-26, version 7.2.0* Updating my review to make it clear I haven’t used this app in many years. Not sure why developer is responding now all these years later. ### 3/5 — Not worth it $$$ *2026-01-22, version 7.2.0* UPDATE: haven’t used this in over a year. They started charging you. Ridiculous. So now I just listen to calming ocean sounds on YouTube for free. I've been having serious trouble sleeping due to a stress. This app has helped me decompress before bed & more peacefully drift off to sleep. I'm so glad I found it. Highly recommend this! ### 1/5 — X *2026-01-22, version 7.2.0* Updating my review to make it clear I haven’t used this app in many years. Not sure why developer is responding now all these years later. - I'm quite new to mindfulness and was recommended by my therapist. It's helping me so much. Request: please make it a universal app? I use this app on my iPad most often and there are a few bugs doing it this way. ### 1/5 — I didn’t create a review *2026-01-21, version 7.2.0* I didn’t create a review but was just notified that I did. Very strange. ### 2/5 — Useful meditation timer *2026-01-21* I primarily use this app to as a timer for silent meditation. Sometimes I wish there was a 20 minute option along with the 5, 15, and 30. I like the background noise choices and usually use the beach wave sounds, which reminds me of my retreat center. Have not used the spoken voice guided meditation so cannot comment on that. Have been using the timer daily for a long time and am happy. UPDATE: Unfortunately, the meditations are now mostly in app purchase content of guided meditations by popular pseudo-Buddhist teachers. I can access timed silent meditations used in the past by me under “profile” but now you have to tap a couple times and make sure it is playing, so you are not meditating while believing the timer is running but it is not. It appears to be no longer possible to set a new silent meditation. I can only replay what is in my history under profile. So if you only want guided meditations, there are a few free ones in the long list, but if you want a timed, silent meditation with bells, it no longer exists apparently. **Developer response:** Thank you for updating your review! We appreciate your detailed feedback. We're sorry the silent meditation timer experience has become harder to access. This sounds like a genuine usability concern we'd like to help solve. Please email our support team at support@themindfulnessapp.com with specifics about your version so we can investigate. 🙏 The Mindfulness App Team ### 5/5 — Grateful *2025-12-30, version 7.1.3* Honestly This body of work has been very supportive and a daily practice for me. From Tara Brachs RAIN, to Reuben Lowe’s Sleep meditations, Sharon Salzburg’s breathing meditation and so many more. Such a valuable supportive practice. Thank you for providing this. ### 2/5 — Why am I getting charged for a “free trial” *2025-12-22, version 7.1.3* So I signed up for the 7 day free trial and my Apple Pay got immediately charged $10.80!!! That seems kinda shady. I’m going to try to contact someone tomorrow and if I don’t get this straightened out I’m going to cut the rating to 1 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Do NOT download this app or get premium *2026-06-03, version 7.5.7* This app is a scam. Paid for a membership and it just stopped working randomly. Emailed support and they never got back to me. Do yourself a favor and ignore this app. I cannot believe they are scamming people with mental illness! ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2026-05-09, version 7.5.7* There used to be free basic content on here, but now they draw you in before showing you meditations that are all locked until you pay. ### 1/5 — . *2026-04-24, version 7.5.6* 0 ### 1/5 — Doesn't fit my screen *2026-04-15, version 7.5.6* Glad there is a free trial and I didn't pay yet. I can't even create an account because it doesn't fit my screen and I can't check all the boxes. ### 1/5 — This App Is A Spam Do Not Download. *2026-03-14, version 7.5.2* This App Is A Spam Do Not Download. ### 1/5 — Used to be Decent *2026-03-13, version 7.5.2* This app has gone to absolute trash ### 1/5 — Used to be awesome, now not good *2026-03-05, version 7.5.1* Kinda over how you need an account and sign in to use this app. All I want to do is meditate, have some bells play at the end of the time so I know it’s time to come out. I’ll just set a timer on my watch and use that, manually insert the meditation into Apple Fitness. Deleting this app from my phone now. Bye. ### 1/5 — Deleted this app *2026-02-28, version 7.5.1* I deleted this app and thought I had canceled it. I still seem to be paying for it. Please cancel. ### 1/5 — Total Rip-off – Don’t Pay for Features You Already Own! *2026-02-08* Do not waste your money on this app. It is essentially a "scam" in the sense that they are charging a high subscription fee for features that are built into your iPhone and Apple Watch for completely free. This app markets itself as a necessary tool for focus and mindfulness, but it’s just a middleman. • The "Limit" Feature: Your iPhone already has "Screen Time" and "App Limits" built into the Settings menu. You can block any app or category for free without a subscription. • The Meditation Timer: The Apple Watch literally comes with a "Mindfulness" app (the blue flower icon) and a "Mind & Body" workout mode. Both do exactly what this app does—track your time and add it to your rings—without a monthly fee. • The "Calming Sounds": You can find "Background Sounds" in your Apple Watch/iPhone Accessibility settings or just use a free playlist on YouTube/Spotify. They lure you in with a "free trial" and then hit you with a massive charge, banking on the fact that you won’t realize your phone already does all of this. It's predatory, especially since it targets people looking for mental clarity. Save your money and just use the Apple Health and Screen Time tools already on your device. **Developer response:** We're sorry you feel this way. We understand your frustration about pricing. Our app offers guided meditations, expert content, and personalized features beyond what's built-in. We'd love to help clarify what we offer. Please reach out to support@themindfulnessapp.com. 🙏 The Mindfulness App Team ### 1/5 — Money always wins *2026-02-08, version 7.4.0* I downloaded the app when it first appeared and bought a number of meditations. With the constant renewal and upselling of the app ( and the intrusive questioning) my meditations have disappeared. When you buy a book it is yours forever. When you buy something on the internet- not so much. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Mindfulness App *2026-09-04, version 7.6.1* Still not working properly. Logs onto web version not app. In general I find this all very complicated if you just want a simple, timed, silent meditation. Perhaps I am getting too old, but all the in app purchases etc. aren’t what I am looking for. Great if you do 😀 ### 5/5 — Just renewed for another year. *2026-08-29, version 7.6.0* Long time meditator. I like this app because it’s easy to find what I am looking for. I can also explore new meditations and teachers easily. ### 5/5 — Great 😊 *2026-08-23, version 7.5.9* Love the layout of this App. Really good job ### 5/5 — Good quality app *2026-08-10, version 7.5.9* The app has a big range of exercise for beginners and experts in meditation. It is a helpful tool and should be used to help with mental health issues. The exercises vary in intensity. You will definitely learn more about mindfulness and calmness. I definitely recommend it to people interested in having good mental health. ### 5/5 — Best mindfulness app out there *2026-08-06, version 7.5.9* This is definitely my favorite of all the meditation apps. I love how they have real meditation teachers and classes you can take. Highly recommend. ### 5/5 — Just Enough *2026-07-16, version 7.5.9* The sessions I’ve chosen seem to fit my need/ want of the moment. Short sessions are impactful. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-06-06* I downloaded the app kept in phone for very long days. One late night i opened and practiced the breathing exercises. Believe me this is the best meditation app. Kudos to the developers. One small suggestion please focusing on the ux and ui of the app. When the app open user need a feeling like we going to earn something that will change our life. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for this beautiful review! 🙏 So glad that late-night breathing session was meaningful for you. We love your UX suggestion about creating that sense of transformation from the first moment. We'll pass it along to our team!

It is a helpful tool and should be used to help with mental health issues. ### 5/5 — Great! I use it daily! *2026-03-29, version 7.5.5* I get so much from these meditations by excellent teachers and ranging so many subjects. It’s wonderful :) ### 5/5 — Love it! *2026-01-22, version 7.2.0* Best meditation app I found! As a beginning meditator, this simple app helped me increase the number of times I meditate each week. Did the guided meditations initially (love her voice) and now feel knowledgeable enough to do the silent meditations. Highly recommend it!
