## What is Volonte?

Volonte is a training app for experiencing lucid dreaming.

Lucid dreaming is a dream that you experience while being aware that you are dreaming.
We experience lucid dreaming, which rarely happens.
Because you can't realize that you are dreaming in a dream.

Why don't you realize that it's a dream in your dreams?
During sleep, the manifest consciousness that controls consciousness is also asleep, so it is not possible to think and act consciously in a dream.
Many dreams are unconsciously embodied, such as beliefs, habits, and habits.

In order to carry out the awakening intention in a dream, it is necessary that the intention is habituated.
The intention of having a lucid dream, Be aware that you are in a dream while you sleep.
So, one of the habits you need is "Am I dreaming now? And ask yourself.
This is called a "reality check".
By repeatedly performing "reality checks" in your daily life, you will be able to ask questions unconsciously even in your dreams, at that time, you will realize that it is a dream.

Volonte is an app for making "reality check" a habit.
Use the vibration function of Apple Watch to create your own rhythm vibration pattern.
By notifying this vibration at arbitrary intervals, you will not forget to promote "reality check".
By repeating "reality checks" in your busy life, you will increase the frequency of experiencing "lucid dreaming".

Let's start explore into the dreams!

### 4/5 — Pretty Good, Needs A Bit More

*2022-05-11*

Overall this app is pretty good. If it were free I’d give it five stars. I love that you can customize the haptics. 

But expectations are a bit higher for a paid app and this could use some more features. The main thing that needs to be updated is including a schedule. For example, Monday-Friday from 11pm - 6am you set the interval every 30 minutes and Sat-Sun 12pm - 4pm it’s every 60 minutes. Some customization like that would bump it up to five stars for sure. Right now you can only choose one interval and you have to manually turn it off and on. 

Perhaps a bit of a reach but if it used your heart rate to send notifications during REM sleep, that would be outstanding. 

Lastly, and this is probably on Apple, you cannot receive haptics or notifications on Do Not Disturb, so you have to turn that off thru the night if you want to use this app. 

Overall I’d recommend the app.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your very informative review.
The ability to send out notifications during REM sleep is not yet feasible due to our lack of technology, but we have not given up.

### 5/5 — Simple and user friendly!

*2021-07-22*

There was an annoying thing about this app that caused me to set the alerts very sparingly, but the creators fixed the issue. 

This app is simple and useful. I used to use the trigger of checking my watch twice to lucid dream, and if time had changed I would know I was dreaming.

This should be even better, every time it alerts me, I try to put my finger through my palm, try to move something near me with telekinesis, or whatever.

It’s all a matter of habit, can’t wait to see results!

One more suggestion I should add is instead of a check ever 30 minutes, 1 hour, or whatever, have an option to have random checks, with an option as to approximate frequency.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your purchase. I appreciate your review and valuable suggestions. 
The next update will add a random check feature.
If you have any other requests, please feel free to contact me.
Let's enjoy the dream world together!

### 3/5 — I love this app

*2021-05-19*

But it won’t or I can’t find the app on my family sharing. It’s asking my wife to purchase the app. 

She can not find the app I purchased in my purchased section. 

I did buy other apps and it shows them. 

What do I do :(?

**Developer response:** I can't reproduce the glitch, so I can't find a way to fix it.
I'm sorry since you seem so interested in it.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any more questions.
Thank you.

### 4/5 — Great but one major feature missing

*2020-12-23*

This is a fantastic concept and it was executed perfectly, well almost. I would have liked to see a dedicated phone app, but that’s just a preference thing and not the reason for the 4 stars. I would have given it 5-stars if it would allow for intervals for the intervals. For instance, I would like to have set my intervals to only occur from 7am to 10pm daily instead of having them occur every hour from the time I start. 

All in all a great app and would love to see this change in a later update.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your purchase.
I appreciate your review and valuable suggestions.
I will think about iPhone integration and timer function.
If you have any other requests, please feel free to contact me.
Thank you!
