Love the revamp of The Village

I love how the app has changed and been revamped to represent who it’s for African/Blk people who are secure in being African, spiritually aligned (or trying to reach that point) and done with the western mindset of meditation, spirituality and ready for mindfulness focused on our Africanity/blackness! Excellent job, keep progressing! Don’t stop, get it, get it!!

Excellent. Beautiful. Authentic.

Thank you.

What happened…

When this app first came out it was amazing. There was way more content and more BIPOC and queer voices that have been removed. This was such an affirming tool that I used with my students, now there simply enough content. Not willing to pay for less content.

What happened to this app?

I have used this app off and on for the past few years. I’m not sure what changed in the past 6-8 months, but the content is way more limited and narrow. I miss some of the diverse voices and content that was previously available.

Used to love this app

I was introduced to so many great practitioners (Lama Rod, Mushim, ❤️❤️) and it really helped me throughout the shelter in place part of this pandemic. I was more than happy to pay for a subscription because I want to see spaces like this thrive. I am really grateful for what I gained from this app.
I no longer use this app because I can practice in person now with others and it’s mostly the same meditations that it has been for years. I went to unsubscribe, and there is no “unsubscribe” button or option. I emailed Heru to ask him how do I go about unsubscribing, showed him via screenshot there was no “unsubscribe” button, and could he confirm that my subscription would not be renewed in May. He responded with “this has to do with Apple, not us.” Im really disappointed there was no attempt to help me given he set up the account with Apple and should know how subscriptions work for this app.
So i guess i will have to notify my bank to make sure I don’t get charged for a subscription renewal in May, it should not have been this difficult.
Has anyone else had a hard time unsubscribing from this app?
