Sanity & Self: Stress Relief for Negative User Reviews
✓ Charged twiceI downloaded the app and wanted to get the 7 day free trial, was charged for the full year.. got a refund and deleted the app two weeks later, I’ve notice ANOTHER charge from the same app. I’m not very happy..Version: 2.0.5488.132
✓ Eh.This app was like a lot of apps today, as in your first impression is absolutely amazing and then you’re asked to pay for it 🙄 very disappointing as I think an app like this should be free..Version: 3.0.6104.162
✓ Hard to cancelBeware. Charges $77 automatically and very difficult to remove yourself from the subscription..Version: 2.0.5456.129
✓ Free not freeHi I seen the add for your app I thought it looked great so I downloaded it and it said a free 7 day trial, so I thought why not usually I say no to them. Soon as I pressed yes and I checked my bank I was charged!! I haven’t even got to check the app out yet!!.Version: 2.0.5331.126
✓ 😕The app won’t even load pass the get started screen!.Version: 2.0.5135.121
✓ Paid twice, didn’t give me access to paid features.I really had high hopes for this app as I’ve just ended a 7 year relationship and am looking for all the help I can get. Unfortunately, I paid twice but both times when I went to access the features, I was redirected to the premium page. Very poor system. I have since unsubscribed and sincerely hope I won’t be charged..Version: 2.0.5782.147
✓ SMHIt’s a shame that this app isn’t actually free. It’s a good idea but completely inaccessible to those whom this app claims it would like to support. People who can afford this app, probably won’t need it as they can afford to access other types of mental health supports. If only we lived in a world where app developers didn’t capitalize off peoples need for support..Version: 2.0.4866.105
✓ PanderingBy the single audio cast I could listen to without paying (which is, in itself, a poor business plan) I learned that this app is basically the electronic embodiment of “White feminism”. Which to me, means the idea that western white women are truly the most oppressed peoples. I hope some 50 year old White privileged women who believe this benefit from this app- because for the rest of us this kind of thinking is so out of touch with the very real problems in this world that it’s actually offensive. Was all here for the idea as women do truly deserve serious support for our very real issues (1/3 of us will be sexually assaulted in our lifetime, for example) but as this app is for unaware and spoiled white women I’m not the target audience. And I am a white woman who is so much more privileged than most in this planet, but even I deal with more serious issues than this and looking through this pandering idea of female struggle felt gross honestly. If less than one star was an option- I would give it that..Version: 3.0.6422.179
✓ DisappointingI downloaded this app to get help and improve my life but you have to buy the premium version for almost everything. I was able to listen to the first audio of self love then it asked me to pay for the premium to listen to other audios. I strongly believe if your going to try to help people, you should start with an app I don’t have to purchase everything..Version: 2.0.5331.126
✓ Where did all the free content go?When I first got this app, I was absolutely stoked. There was so much free content and the things I came across blew me away. From journal guidance to exercise, I felt like I had found an app that kept all the things that were important to me in one easily-accessible, enjoyable-to-use place. I had even considered upgrading to premium for some of the intriguing extra content, but now that almost nothing is available unless you upgrade I have lost respect for this company. It is such a shame because I would have continued to happily use this app in my day-to-day and it was actually a huge help in my struggle to bring balance and peace to my life. I really hope this changes, because unless more becomes available without paying again, I won’t consider premium and I won’t be able to use this once-a-near-miracle app..Version: 2.0.4383.87
✓ So expensiveYou have to pay for everything, they say they want to help you but it pretty much all costs $$$..Version: 3.0.6502.180
✓ Great App, But the cost is a little muchI absolutely love this app, however...unfortunately I can’t continue on with it, I am an out fo work (due to doctors orders, I have an autoimmune disease, aneurysm in my spine and blood clots in my lungs) 48 years old, and love being able to come to this app and have a daily highlight...it’s great..helps me build self esteem, helps me care about myself and helps me with motivation....Would love to purchase this app for a year, but at this time..I just can’t do it...I hope when I can afford to, it’s still available! Much love to the creators...you all did an amazing job with this one ❤️.Version: 2.0.4697.98
✓ Internet GlitchJust downloaded the app and am willing to pay the $60/yr subscription because after a breakup and the realization I have codependent traits linked to low self esteem, I’m looking for a quick daily reminder to help set intentions and change my worldview....if only I didn’t keep getting the glitch that says I’m not connected to the internet and therefore cannot access any of the content....I think I’m going to cancel the sub during my free week if I can’t troubleshoot this. Which would be a shame because this seems like a great tool..Version: 2.0.4818.103
✓ Mostly disappointing but slightly insightful contentI downloaded the app because I saw an advertisement for it on Instagram, and thought why not. When I opened the app, I was initially skeptical because of immense focus on just empowering women, which is a good concept. However, the execution of the app creates an exclusionary environment because not everyone feels supported, which is not fair especially since majority of the content is general information for all people. Another issue I have with the app is that after only one sample audio a pop up comes up that requires you to sign up for a free 7 day trial or pay an outrageous amount for premium. It’s disappointing and quite ironic that in our corrupt society there is an entire market created out of coping with the society itself. Thus, creating an endless cycle of superficial values that take advantage of and sanitize the real horrors of living in a world full of systems that reduce and commodify human life. For example, many people can not afford the overpriced amount for premium does that mean they don’t desire happiness? Absolutely not! There are many free ways to cope with problems like reading articles online or listening to music or talking to friends, thus proving the app does not uniquely fix any issues and is quite unnecessary. Therefore, the only reason for its existence is to exploit stressed out people..Version: 3.0.6009.156
✓ Subscription not workingI got this app July 21, 2020, and I LOVED it. I used it for a few months and then in November 2020 it just stopped working and telling me to start the free trial. It doesn’t expire until July 2021, yet the app will not work for me.. so disappointing to pay $78 to not having something work..Version: 3.0.6502.180
✓ You Have to Pay For Almost EverythingI would have given this app 5 stars, because the things the app has provided that are cost free are really nice, but the problem is, there are almost no free meditations or anything of the sort. If less things were for premium only (which I cannot pay) then this app would get five stars from me. I understand the creators have the premium in place for a reason, and I knew that this app would have in-app purchases, but I did not think that I would only be able to see almost no content for free..Version: 3.0.6502.180
✓ Y just yI was doing perfectly fine on the app then i had to pay for almost everything like I don’t have money I’m young so i cant pay for it.Version: 3.0.6422.179
✓ Nothing freeFew minutes free audio and then straight to the payment page like really? Is nothing free these days? Before apps would have some free sections and now it’s nothing.Version: 3.0.6111.163
✓ I like it but disappointed in the lack of contentI accidentally paid for the year subscription but decided I would stick with it because I enjoyed some of the sessions and the sleep guides (though I wish they were all longer). I understand with covid it’s not necessarily the easy task but I feel as though I’m the amount of time I’ve been on the app not much has been added. I noticed one addition. Especially with the bedtime tales, I would like to see following chapters of the books. I love the concept and the girl power and the lessons being taught but there are also many things that don’t apply to me and I’ve listened to the ones that do already. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE add more stuff I would love to continue use of this app due to the messages it’s getting out there and the help it can bring to women..Version: 3.0.6422.179
✓ Great idea for mild cases and not expensive at $2.79First off some sessions are $2.79 so stop complaining that they’re out to make a profit and how dare they take money! They’re very straight with you about free and in app purchases. Apart from that, I think it’s a great start for simple things, but if you are clinically depressed, see a therapist, don’t use an app. Content ranges from heartbreak to depression to relationships etc. Modules are 7 days typically but short videos. Could it be improved? Well maybe talking to a human is better. There is a community section at least but I’d rather use Facebook in that case. Def worth a try..Version: 3.0.6240.168
✓ Absolutely BSAll I want is to unsubscribe to this site! They make it impossible.Version: 2.0.5331.126
✓ Not very helpful for meThis seems to share a lot of good communication tips one might accumulate after years of therapy. If you’re just getting started in your wellness journey that’s probably much more helpful. In that way I’m not the target audience. Also it’s DEFINITELY made for straight girls, oftentimes saying “your man” instead of “partner” and telling the listeners how inept “your man” is. Some of the time they seem to fall back on pretty sexist standards that were common place in couples counseling in the 60’s (men are from Mars style “husbands are so dumb we have to talk down to them” style of communication). My last gripe is the majority of the content seems aimed at our relationships with other people, which is good indeed, but this app was billed as a self care experience not couples counseling. I myself am more than my relationships to others and it doesn’t seems to promote that line of thought..Version: 2.0.5304.125
✓ Not my thingI delved in during the trial period and was thankful for there being one. Minor things: No night mode. The time I have for quiet and reflection is night. The design is bright. You can flip your phone over or turn off the screen but this would be a minor change that people will enjoy. Music. I hope that was free music because it's just awful. It's the same phrase over and over. I have usedany meditation apps and this choice boggles my mind. Ifd never have expected soft, background music to be distracting. Difficult to see text. The background is bright but the text isn't contrasted well & it's small. I get some people won't have a problem but this could easily be fixed by allowing a few options or even dimming the background-again. Major: Content. There's a lot of content. Cool. The content-proper is not for me. I have a background in psychology and I work as a parole officer. Cognitive-Behavioral is my preferred approach. The approach here is basically too sidling, too ephemeral. In the who speech, the same explication of a situation and examples could be done in 5-10 minutes. My takeaway if the 'point' & the action step from these could be delivered more succinctly. I have had years of therapy & work as a civil servant. I currently have a therapist, as all therapists and counsors should. All of this to say that I really do have experience with getting and giving counsel. The concept of the app is good. My experience with it shows that it's not for me..Version: 3.0.6422.179
✓ Do NOT subscribeAccidentally subscribed twice - cancelled both accounts. Have been charged three times this year for an account that doesn’t exist. Have requested assistance multiple times - my credit card gets charged directly without authorisation. Am lodging a fraudulent claim with my bank. Customer service is TERRIBLE and unhelpful..Version: 3.0.6502.180
✓ Would originally love this app but cost too muchHad to pay for almost everything except for the introduction of one podcast. Not exactly self care if u have to pay them to look after urself🤷♀️.Version: 2.0.5827.150
✓ DisappointedYou have to have premium to see most things which is sad because I would have liked to spend some time on the app without being bombarded with deals and premium. Will not be downloading this app again, I do not recommend..Version: 2.0.5135.121
✓ Common senseThis app charged me 91 dollars after the weeks free trial without consulting me at all. I am now keeping the app on my phone since I unwillingly paid 91 dollars for not a weekly or monthly, but a YEARLY subscription, without ever being told so, and could not receive a refund when I tried. The content on the app is nice to an extent with positive messages however it feels like “filler” words and info. If I wanted to hear the advice and learnings this app offers I could just go to a friend or my mother for a pep talk, or use google to find articles with handy tips instead..Version: 2.0.5642.142
✓ I’m really disappointedHonestly, I’m really, really disappointed. I hoped for an app that could help me with my mental illness and help me cope and learn to be a better person but the creator of this app decided that they wanted money instead of actually helping people. I loved the idea of being able to de stress and be able to write down stuff everyday and just become healthier. But you have to pay to get full access to this app..Version: 2.0.4592.92
✓ You deserve better but only for $15 a week”Misleading advertising. Pretend they want to help but they just want you to click through and subscribe so they can convince you to pay a subscription. It is fine to charge money for an app but don’t make out like you’re only in it to help people when that is false. Now I’ve listened to one session and I’m more sad now than I was before..Version: 2.0.5488.132
✓ Charged me for a year with authorisationThey claim to give you a weeks free trial before charging you, they also claim to have a per week charge but it’s not even an option in subscription, there was no notification to let you know you are getting charge for the year. I have sent a request for a refund..Version: 2.0.5331.126
✓ DisappointedUseless I only got to listen to 1 audio ANDDD that audio contained a lot of swearing and inappropriate words not peaceful at all while the rest were all membership and I do not have the money for that.Version: 2.0.5078.115
✓ Terrible Service, UnfairI had this app for a long time, and when i first got it i used it a lot! i loved it! but i stopped using it and recently within the past few months tried to go on again. i had issues with my account, am not allowed to post for some reason, and i’ve tried to contact customer support. TWICE. they said they would get back to me within the week and it’s been over a month now since with first request. a couple weeks from my second. i’m infuriated. and disappointed. i had a few simple questions and want to know why i am not allowed to post and everyone else is yet have heard nothing and i’m very upset. it’s a shame..Version: 3.0.6502.180
✓ DisappointingThis app is the worst. I unsubscribed and it's still charging me. No customer service contact information for help either..Version: 3.0.5955.154
✓ SmhBruh they literally banned me until year 3035! i can’t go into my account for whatever reason they banned (i hadn’t even gone on the app for more then 6 months plus i never posted anything on it) i cant go on to it for another thousand year.Version: 3.0.6422.179
✓ Basically have to buy the premium versionI really liked this app when I fist download it. finally an app I can actually utilize but I deleted because once everyone cost money. I recently re downloaded it because I want to stay meditation and the only video the app has for three is for 3 minutes and it’s one video. I don’t want to buy the premium I don’t want a month subscription. I’m not mad that They charge I’m just upset that they don’t have any free videos available to use. At least 5 I think that is very reasonable and you can Change Them out every month. This is a great app but I just am not going to buy it you should cater to people who don’t want to buy the premium..Version: 2.0.5488.132
✓ Love the app, but can’t get through to customer serviceI’ve been using this app for years, it was such a breath of fresh air that I found after a breakup. I am pretty disappointed though with their customer service. I’ve tried reaching out to try to fix an error with my subscription and have heard no word back. Don’t want to pay over $100 for another subscription because I don’t have the money to. Hopefully they get back to me shortly to fix the issue!.Version: 3.0.6502.180
✓ Completely useless app without a credit cardOnly giving it a 1 because I couldn’t write a review without at least this. Disappointing.Version: 2.0.4982.107
✓ BooThis app charged my card 80 dollars after i choose not to subscribe worst 80 dollars EVER SPENT DO NOT GET.Version: 3.0.6502.180
✓ Poor advertisementYou say it’s free with in app purchases but you can either sign up with a free 7 day trial and a 1 year membership or you can pay 13 per month. Why don’t you apps just tell people up front what costs are? Why not just charge for the app in the first place?!.Version: 2.0.5488.132
✓ Too expensiveWhy is it that something that could really help, costs the earth!!! Shame.Version: 2.0.5461.130
✓ Money grab app!Everything on this app costs $$$ and I’m paranoid to click on anything in fear of it charging me... great concept for the app but not going to help you unless you wanna get tricked into paying tons.Version: 3.0.5920.153
✓ Do not do the free trial unless your willing to be chargedI was charged for my 7 day free trial without any reminder or notification that it was due. I am now trying to get a refund as I do not want to have a subscription with this app. I was charged for the yearly subscription which was not even something I selected!.Version: 3.0.6251.169
✓ AwfulOnly want money..Version: 3.0.6502.180
✓ Free App?It’s fine and dandy to have an app that costs money, but advertise as such in the App Store. If I would have known I had to pay to unlock everything after installing a free app I wouldn’t have downloaded it. Some people who cannot afford therapy/counseling/etc can not afford a monthly subscription. Seeing all the articles that would be helpful and not being able to look or open them without paying is like taking a kid to a candy store and then saying “nope, none for you unless you give me your allowance.” It feels very unlike what you are trying to promote or endorse; would not know since I cannot read any articles. I like the idea, but I can journal on my own time and set alarms/reminders on my own phone..Version: 2.0.4982.107
✓ STUPID AF“ download for free “ and charges me $91.00 without consent ! Not for a weekly/ monthly but a YEARLY subscription !!! DO NOT DOWNLOAD this app it’s stupid and doesn’t even ask for permission to subscribe to whatever amount you’d like and does so itself ! Not even worth the 1 star 👎🏽.Version: 2.0.5827.150
✓ It’s okay!Works good enough without the subscription..Version: 3.0.5891.151
✓ 28 bucks for facts about your vagina you could googleSeriously, this app is taking advantage of women’s insecurities! 28 dollars for 40 min on facts about your vagina with titles like “vagina insecurity” and “too many orgasms”. Shame on you!!!.Version: 2.0.5817.149
✓ DissatisfiedI was super excited to use this app, it seemed like it was just here to make girls feel better about themselves, until they ask for $80 a year. not cool..Version: 2.0.4835.104
✓ Misleading in a way..I do like this app and I think very good points are made in each session, but personally, I’m young and still in school and I was really excited to find out more about how to learn to help support myself through different issues in my life with this. But I cannot afford to pay for premium as I am still only in school. It would be nice to have free options. I feel like now I’ve downloaded this in hopes of getting more in depth with myself, and now I can’t afford to get the full experience. Which is quite discouraging to be fully honest. But I think the idea behind it is in good efforts.. many people looking for help nowadays consist of younger girls in hopes of finding reassurance in their lives. And if you’re in highschool- it’s hard to afford things such as this if you’re just looking for another opinion to help clear your head..Version: 2.0.4982.107
✓ Only if you plan on buying the membership.I was really excited about using the app and the possibilities it offered for meditation and self reflection, however shortly after downloading it I realized you have to buy to membership to use any of the app at all. As a grad student I don’t have $60 a year to spend on something like this so I wasn’t looking for a premium version. I thought I’d at least get a handful of meditations and self-care guidances for free and the rest of the app with purchase of a membership, but sadly no. One short introduction to the app and how it works is all you’ll get for free. Disappointing to say the least. Don’t download unless you intend to spend the money to buy a membership..Version: 2.0.4552.90
✓ Very specific target audienceThis app is almost exclusively for women between 18-29 yo. Legally, users need to be at least 18, and then women older than 29 will find very little content to keep them invested in this app. In many ways, this app reinforces certain stereotypes such as women are only interested in learning more about relationships, romance & friendship. Nothing about managing finances or how to handle being a woman in a male dominated field. So, if you fall into that narrow demographic, it’s GREAT!! For those of us who were hoping for more out of a female-driven app there will be some gems here, but mostly just disappointment..Version: 2.0.5751.145
✓ A lot is missingI’m not sure who will see this in the sea of reviews. Most of which are 5 star reviews. For me this is not a 5 star app. It’s a 5 star concept. I’ve had it for a month—like other women I wanted to start the New Year “getting back on track”. I thought this was a great app to do that. I quickly got board. And the content that didn’t bore me was over with after 2 mins. I just wish it had more. More important I wish it would update the content regularly. I’ve been waiting for new bedtime stores for weeks. Where’s the rest of the chapters to Little Women and Alice in Wonder. Once you finish a session (which is usually only 2 mins for 5 days) then what? It takes more than 10 mins a week to learn to love yourself, to learn to accept yourself, to not get stressed out. WE NEED MORE. Also. I’m 32– I know this is for women but I feel like some of the content is for younger women. I don’t need to learn to touch myself. I don’t need to learn how to play mind games to make men interested in me. And I don’t need to learn to say the F word. It’s already my favorite word and I’m content with canceling my subscription. I won’t miss it. I really hope they can update their and add more content regularly. I really wanted to love this app. If anyone needs me I’ll be going to Calm (which is also cheaper) you MOREEEEE bang for your buck..Version: 3.0.5920.153
✓ Took my moneyThis app automatically signed me up for a one year subscription and took $91 out of my account without any sort of permission. I’m extremely annoyed that this app subscribed me to something I never wanted..Version: 2.0.5702.144
✓ PoorVery disappointed. I was charged $91.99 for a subscription I didn’t sign up for..Version: 2.0.5522.134
✓ Deleting after five minutesUnless you’re going to pay quite a bit there is nothing for you in this app. Deleting already..Version: 2.0.4905.106
✓ Worst tease ever.It’s great for the people its actually aimed for. And that wouldn’t be the broken, heart broken, or defeated. If u went threw a breakup and were left with nothing then don’t even bother downloading it. It’s only meant for the rich considering EVERY SING video and daily spread and everything els. And I mean EVERYTHING els costs at least $2. Well spending that for every video. Then doing it everyday or spending the $15 a month witch is more than I pay for tv a month. Why the hell would I spend that kind of money on an APP that I use once a day for 10 mins??? You could still give it a try, I did. And within 40 seconds I realized I can do nothing more than stare at it wishing I could use it because I could have really used the help. But no she doesn’t want to help people she just wants to make bank. Clearly..Version: 3.0.6402.178
✓ Pay? why.Why should i pay more to love myself? it’s a great idea, and i love that there are more apps to help woman to be kind to themselves but why pay for it?!.Version: 2.0.5702.144
✓ Great Concept Poor ExecutionThe content titles are interesting. Yet, the quality is subpar especially with the price tag attached with the app. I was mislead by the variety of content as opposed to the Shine App which I have been using for years thinking the more the better. In contrast though, the speakers talk too fast and I found myself having to replay the same piece over and over again. That is frustrating. Also, I am a psychologist in training and the “advice” they gave was not helpful. The Shine App gently guides you to your own values this app I felt forced certain values. I am glad that it helped others, but it is not for me. It stressed me out more. I asked for a refund for my yearly purchase. If the content was better quality I would buy again, but until then it’s a no from me..Version: 3.0.6502.180
✓ I am not impressed with the free trialI am not impressed with how the “free” trial is set up. I wanted to try it for the advertised 7 days to see if it was the right fit not purchase a month of an app I don’t know if I like. I find the way this app is set up is misleading, I am not impressed and any enjoyment I might have gotten out of this program has now been tainted..Version: 2.0.5827.150
✓ Nothing on this app is freeYou can not access anything unless you upgrade to premium.Version: 2.0.5304.125
✓ Love!!I really really love this app it’s so calming I just wish it didn’t cost anything to feel good about yourself 🤷🏽♀️.Version: 2.0.5433.128
