The most powerful subliminal voice is your own. SelfMade lets you make your own subliminals: record your affirmations in your own voice and mix them under ambient sound at subliminal volume. Your conscious mind hears rain or theta beats. Your subconscious hears the script you wrote, in the voice it already trusts. For Goddard practitioners, manifesting beginners, and anyone tired of listening to a stranger telling them who they are. WHY YOUR VOICE Your subconscious responds powerfully to your own voice, the voice it has heard and trusted your entire life. It's why Neville Goddard taught self-spoken affirmations as the foundation of manifestation practice. SelfMade brings this tradition into a beautiful modern app. WHAT'S INSIDE • Make your own subliminals: record your affirmations, choose from our library of expert scripts, or describe your goal and let AI write your script in seconds • Mix your voice under rain, ocean, river, forest, fireplace, or white or pink noise, and add a frequency layer: theta 6Hz, alpha 10Hz, delta 2Hz, 528Hz or Schumann 7.83Hz • Three listening modes: Subliminal, Supraliminal and SATS, each with a voice slider, plus separate volume sliders for the sound and the frequency layer • Sleep timer and seamless looping, made for overnight listening • Manifestation velocity tracking: watch your average days-to-manifestation drop as your practice deepens • Personalized archetypes that reflect your evolving practice style • Notice the Pattern: gentle, Goddard-fluent guidance when a category takes longer than expected • Sealed letters to your future self, written in past tense as if already manifested • Voice verification on every track, so you always know what's in your subliminal CATEGORIES Wealth and Abundance, Love and Relationships, Health and Vitality, Confidence and Success, Beauty and Self-Image, Specific Goals Write a subliminal for a specific person, a specific outcome, a specific timeline. Or let our expert scripts guide you. THE PRACTICE, MEASURED Most manifestation apps ask you to trust the process. SelfMade shows you the process working. Every manifestation gets timed. Every category tracked. Every archetype's progress visible. When you've manifested three times faster than when you started, you'll have the data to prove your practice is real. PRIVACY Your voice never leaves your device. Your photos never leave your device. Your manifestation letters are encrypted on your phone with your own keys. We collect only what we need to make the app work. Nothing more. No ads, ever. PRICING Free to start with your first subliminal. Premium unlocks unlimited subliminals, the full script library, and the Supraliminal and SATS modes. Weekly, yearly, and lifetime options are available. See in-app pricing for current rates. Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings. FROM PRACTITIONERS, FOR PRACTITIONERS SelfMade was built by a solo developer who is also a practitioner. The app speaks the language you already use: assumption, the wish fulfilled, the I AM, scripting, revision, SATS. Goddard-fluent where it matters, accessible where it should be. If this resonates, you'll know. The voice is already in you. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Sublimo plays your affirmations quietly under ambient sound while you get on with your phone. Pick a program, press start, and it keeps going in the background while you scroll or read or work. WHAT IT DOES The sound plays everywhere on your phone, not just inside the app. Sublimo sits under whatever else you're playing, at a volume you set, from clearly there to almost nothing. The images are different. They only show inside Sublimo's own browser, because iOS won't let any app draw over the ones you're actually using. So if you want images flashing while you read, you read inside Sublimo. We'd rather say that plainly than pretend otherwise. YOUR WORDS, NOT OURS Nothing's hidden. Every affirmation is there to read, change, or delete, the ones we ship included. If you can't see it, it isn't playing. - Write your own, or take a built-in program and rework it - Paste a whole list at once, as plain lines or JSON - 65 system voices in 46 languages, set per line if you want - Or record the affirmations in your own voice THE SOUND - Layer ambient beds like rain, brown noise, and soft pads, each with its own level - Set how loud the spoken part sits, down to a whisper under the bed - Choose how often the lines come, with a little natural drift so it never feels mechanical - Send a session to AirPlay speakers, a HomePod, or an Apple TV - A sleep timer winds it down, and it pauses when you do A SOUNDSCAPE OF YOUR OWN You don't have to use words at all. Leave the affirmations out and layer the ambient beds into a soundscape you build yourself, a backdrop for meditation, focus, or practices like spiritual cleansing and astral projection. Set the level, add a sleep timer, and let it run as long as you need. What you do with the quiet is yours. VISUAL CUES, IN THE BROWSER - Flash, Ghost, Ticker, or Random placement - Anything from a single screen frame up to five seconds - No strobing, and Reduce Motion is respected KEEPING TRACK - Time listened, session count, and a day streak - Progress photos on a day-numbered timeline if you like to compare over weeks - Your photos stay in your account and go nowhere else AN ACCOUNT, IF YOU WANT ONE Make one and your programs, history, and photos follow you to a new phone. Everything else works without it. You can wipe your data, or the whole account, from inside the app. PREMIUM The app's free. Premium is a one-off purchase, no subscription. It takes the ads away and lifts the limits, so you can keep as many programs, affirmations, and photos as you want and share programs as files. WHERE WE STAND The science on true subliminal messages, the kind pitched below conscious awareness, is weak, and Sublimo doesn't pretend otherwise. What you get is a steady, repeatable way to keep words you chose in front of you, at whatever volume suits you. Whether it helps is yours to decide, and the app's built so you can always check exactly what it's saying. Sublimo is not a medical device and is not a substitute for professional care.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Subliminal Maker at none against Sublimo's shown. Subliminal Maker also leads on ratings volume (55 vs 1) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 10 days). Sublimo's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Subliminal Maker sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Sublimo sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Sublimo holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Subliminal Maker has 55 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Subliminal Maker ships an update every 4 days, Sublimo every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
