Some of the subjects don't seem bang on, perhaps some more research into what would really help overcome certain things. Otherwise it's relaxing but can't say it's great on overcoming obstacles. ### 5/5 — Erik brown sleep hypnosis is perfect! *2013-11-24, version 1.300* Helps me get to sleep every single night literally.. I use to find it so hard to get to sleep but this app really does work wonders with me I actually LOVE IT!!! ### 5/5 — Great App! *2013-10-17, version 1.300* It states to use over a period of 21 days so don't expect miracles from the 1st night but after a few nights I was dropping off into a deep sleep within a couple of minutes. Great app, it really has helped me to switch off and relax! ### 5/5 — Fantastic *2013-09-24, version 1.300* This app is perfect for beginners, and having used both the awake and sleep modes, it really works. The awake version leaves you feeling calm and refreshed, and the sleep version sends me into a beautiful deep sleep every time. ### 5/5 — Nice job. *2013-09-21, version 1.300* Well done, great delivery non jarring and effective. ### 5/5 — Relaxation *2013-09-13, version 1.300* I have to say that both the relaxation and other various ones in this series are completely fantastic. These volumes of hypnosis have saved me in every sense of the word. They have given me peace of mind coupled with inner strength to face to severe life challenges over the past 2 years. I really believe that without the intervention of this particular series of hypnotic tapes I would have found a lot more difficult to pull through some very difficult times. The beauty of the way this series is presented is that it can be totally customised to suit your particular situation and mood of the moment. So basically it allows this to be a tool to keep you stable, upbeat, positive Nd generally in sync with where you wish to be. I can not recommend this high enough and I only hope that if you are reading these reviews trying to decide wether or not this is for you - you give it a go. I want others to share in the same positive and life changing experience that I have - as a direct result of this programme. Thank you so much to Mr Brown and your team for changing my life. ### 5/5 — Excellent Hypnosis!! *2013-08-15, version 1.300* I have used this so far, every night for the last 6 nights. I love it. I drift to sleep faster and sleep better. I have a 7 month old daughter and was worried about waking up to tend to her, but Erik gives you the power to come back to consciousness anytime. I plan on downloading a few more of his sessions. 👍 ### 5/5 — Sleep well *2013-07-28, version 1.300* Great app. Didn't think it would actually work but it puts me to sleep every time ### 5/5 — Deep Relaxation Allows Me to Relax & Sleep *2013-07-23, version 1.300* I've had insomnia for 10 years. I take strong, doctor prescribed sleep aides, keep a sleep journal, eye mask, bedtime routine, ear plugs and every pillow type imaginable. But nothing has worked until the Deep Relaxation on this App. Now, I sleep every night and wakeup refreshed and feeling great! ### 5/5 — Terrible volume control *2013-07-20, version 1.300* Great app; I would like to rate it 5 stars, EXCEPT -- when entering the sleep mode, the voice volume jumps 10 to 20 db (my subjective estimate, but could be even more!) When I'm trying to sleep, the last thing I need is a drill sergeant yelling in my ear; better to leave the voice out (not currently an option). ### 5/5 — Deep Relaxation App *2013-07-07, version 1.300* Very helpful for anxiety ### 4/5 — Good app *2013-07-03, version 1.300* I don't use it every night but when my brain doesn't want to shut down this app helps me to focus on the staircase so I can fall asleep I recommend it The induction has been changed since above review. I enjoy this new one as well. I recommend it ### 4/5 — Great for sleep and relaxation *2013-06-05, version 1.099* I have problems sleeping and this App has helped me sleep. At first I had to listen to it 3 times in a row and after a week of listening to it before bed, I fall asleep as soon as I hear his voice! The voice does sound a bit robotic but it's the best voice I've heard so far. Love this App! ### 5/5 — Fantastic *2013-05-16, version 1.099* So relaxing. So easy! ### 5/5 — Perfect App *2013-04-16, version 1.099* Puts me to sleep and makes me a better person! ### 5/5 — I never hear the end! *2013-03-31, version 1.099* Well what I hear is great before I nod off, so I guess it works....! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Please update *2021-12-11, version 2.4* Needs updating. Tech doesn’t work well. ### 1/5 — This version *2016-02-10, version 1.604* The current version will forget past in-app purchases then will not restore the purchases. Does not give an error message and restoring as per faq does not work. Used to work fine except levels between sections were not equalized, especially the going to sleep ending which was so much louder that it would wake me with a start. ### 1/5 — Updated version *2016-02-10, version 1.604* Since the app updated, it has not worked! The tracks will not load and play. I want my money back! ### 1/5 — Not worth the headache *2015-05-18, version 1.502* No only are the in-app purchases no longer accessible, some are more expensive than they are when you purchase individually from the App Store! Since the RESTORE function within this update does NOT work, the purchases are USELESS! Seriously consider a different app...😡 ### 1/5 — No Customer Support *2012-10-07, version 1.098* If you have a problem or a question with this app, don't bother contacting customer support. You won't get a response! ### 1/5 — Relax *2012-06-19, version 1.098* This and all others really work ### 1/5 — Awful. *2012-04-02, version 1.098* I don't know why people are giving good reviews. The man that is attempting to lead you into hypnosis says very corny things, and is obviously ad-libbing throughout. It seems very hastily put together, and the layout of the app is a total rip off of Deep Sleep (with Andrew Johnson I think?), which is an amazing sleep app actually worth getting. This one is garbage. I got it for free. Figured it was worth checking out. If it's back to paid, don't buy! Unless you like throwing money in the garbage and being unimpressed by dull, clichéd voices. ### 1/5 — Bad *2011-09-25, version 1.090* It didn't help me if only it got me alot more depresed not worth money or time ### 2/5 — Confused *2012-03-03, version 1.100* How does it work??? ### 3/5 — hello? *2011-12-11, version 1.093* I ADORE this app, BUT after downloading the update today, I can only use it with the screen on! such a waste of the battery when I'll be asleep in half an hour. such a bummer. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great app *2024-06-06, version 2.4* It really helps you relax ### 5/5 — Don’t buy! *2019-01-23, version 2.0* I started using this app again last night and was surprised that it had updated and changed its name. I used to love the old version. The new update is terrible! The graphics are lovely but the audio track for long induction and sleep is un-inspiring and I found it not conducive to falling asleep. I am so disappointed and will not be using it again. ### 5/5 — 5 stars for getting me to sleep! *2015-05-16, version 1.502* I woke up at 3 am and had to get up at 6:30 for work. I tossed n turn for an hour before using this. Got to sleep fairly quickly Thanks! ### 5/5 — High Quality *2015-02-17, version 1.300* Eric Brown does such a consistently good clear job ! ### 5/5 — Great *2015-02-02, version 1.300* My stress level has lowered since I've used the hypnosis. Thank you ! ### 5/5 — Solid *2014-05-24, version 1.300* I have been consistently using the "get out of your own way" program on this app. It has really helped me become aware of my self sabotaging actions and manage them. It works! ### 5/5 — Great App. *2014-04-24, version 1.300* Works for me. ### 5/5 — Happy user. *2014-03-02, version 1.300* Really fantastic I used it not really expecting much however I was so wrong it is great, my blood pressure is now great at night and I sleep like a baby. This is my new bedtime story. Thanks so much.😍. ### 5/5 — Dependable way to get to sleep without drugs *2014-02-16, version 1.300* Listening to this app gets me to sleep even when my brain won't settle down. I also sleep thru the night and feel refreshed in the morning. My favourite background sound is the light rain. ### 5/5 — It works! *2014-01-21, version 1.300* I've never tried hypnosis before this and I'm now a firm believer in that it works! Healing, sleeping, and relaxing better than any med I've tried before. Highly recommended! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
