The Mindfulness App for Negative User Reviews

✓ PremiumThere are too many premium meditations, I cannot use money and I can only do a small handful of lessons! Please add lots and lots of more lesson for free! I think you should add exclusive features for premium also..BubbaCk78Version: 5.19.3

✓ ConfusingI got this app 2 days ago and I thought there was free trial but I was charged $50 for a year trial! I don’t like the app and have asked Apple for a refund..Marcella in BCVersion: 5.38.0

✓ Not impressed they took back the free yearI was really excited to download this app as part of the growth bundle. I paid the $1.99 activation fee and was told I would be getting one year, 365 days free. flash forward two days to October 31 and I find out my subscription is expiring November 2, 2023. when I try to go reactivate my 365 days free, the website now only says you get a month free. I’m really disappointed because I like this app and I like a couple of the other apps I got as part of the bundle..NaraRoseVersion: 5.35.1

✓ Removed useful features to introduce useless onesI’ve had this app since 2011 and the last year the iterations have gone downhill. Most annoyingly they no longer let you customize reminders (why would THIS be a feature to remove???). Do yourself a favour and get any of the other 4826284847 meditation apps on the market, since this one is indistinguishable to worse than the other big ones..MonvikVersion: 4.7.30

✓ PTSDAs a sufferer of post traumatic stress disorder who has received 18 months of counselling I can safely say this app complements the counselling as well has helps with the anxiety and depression that is present with PTSD during and after counselling. Update What happened to the timed meditations that used to be the top option. I liked just going for the 10 minute meditation. Now I’m having to search the app. Am I missing something. This isn’t an improvement for me.TonyteeheeVersion: 4.7.91

✓ Plenty of other meditation appsI rarely feel compelled to give a review, but this app just does not deserve an average rating of 4.7 stars (especially when there are so many others!). Try 10% Happier, or Calm, or Headspace before you try this one. I recently purchased the monthly premium (very glad I didn’t do annual!) and quickly realized there are a lot of bugs. It looks nice at first, but use it for a bit and you’ll find them. For instance, I couldn’t even see a list of the sessions in the course I chose. I also tried adding it to my favorites and it just plain doesn’t work. These seem like pretty basic features, no? I emailed support about two weeks ago asking for a refund... it’s nice they have a support feature built into the app, but would be nicer if they looked at it....SeeMeReviewAppsVersion: 4.7.60

✓ SoothingI have just started to meditate and find this app rather soothing and helpful in my practice. The only thing I’m confused by is that it no longer syncs with my watch to track my heart rate. I don’t know if that is only a feature included with premium or not as I can’t find any info on it. That was a useful aspect which I can no longer use. I’d be interested to know why..IanholmestunbridgewellsVersion: 4.7.80

✓ Current version is broken.For years, this has been among my most beloved apps. I have, according to its stats page, logged over 800 sessions since 2011. I’ve purchased dozens of guided meditations and have found them all worthwhile. However, since updating to the new iOS, this app has become unresponsive and glitchy. If a notification or sms comes in during a purchased meditation, the app crashes. If the screen times out and closes during a meditation, it crashes. I contacted support and they suggested I reinstall the app. I did this, to no effect. I also tried downloading the sessions to listen offline. Again, no improvement. Worse still, the number of problems seem to have grown with the last update to the app. Again, I’d like to stress that this review is of the current version of the app and not past versions. I really do hope that these issues are addressed..KilovgVersion: 4.6

✓ Ironically stressfulI have three issues with this app… Firstly it is very cluttered. I find it hard to find courses, and seem to continually find podcasts. It ironically annoys me. Secondly it is very disjointed. When I think of meditation and zen, I think of continuity over time - the app feels more like lots of unconnected courses with different tones which disrupt my experience. Lastly it assumes I’m doing this because I’m stressed or in pain or grieving… I am none of these things. I think the assessment and yet it still serves me suggestions for these things. Why isn’t there a course for a healthy happy person who wants to stay that way..Nigeld27Version: 5.26.4

✓ MidIt’s not good but not bad this app is mi.Its my selfVersion: 5.35.2

✓ ...Got hacked.Alicio3556Version: 4.6

✓ Horrible customer serviceThey sent a notification with a link to “half off” their normal subscription price, but when I clicked through to see what the offer was I signed into the app, it just automatically charged me. They took $65 & so far chasing down a refund through customer service for a week has got me nowhere. They sent me a link to an article on how to request a refund through iTunes- I did that & still nothing. This is a lot of money to me right now & ironically has caused me a lot of distress & anxiety. Just being ignored by their “customer service” has shown me this app is not able helping people, it’s about getting their money. So Disappointed. Still no help from them & no explanation about the notifications they sent that did an auto sign up without showing the cost. I’ve never had another app do anything close to this. It’s terrible to think an app teaching mindfulness is being used to take advantage of people..L.R SmithVersion: 4.7.88

✓ Login only thru Facebook- hell noI was really excited to use this app, right before buying a years subscription, I saw that the only way to login to your account is through Facebook. The developers response to that was less than reassuring. Too bad too, some of the meditations are guided by well known names in the field. By not offering an email login, they are alienating possible customers. I have multiple devices and iTunes accounts for work reasons, so just not logging in (as suggested by developer) won’t work. I guess it’s more important for the developer to have whatever personal data they can get from Facebook, because this certainly isn’t a for their customers convenience!.DtussVersion: 4.6.74

✓ Wish it was freeI enjoyed the app but disappointed that in order to continue using the app you have to pay. I feel these apps are misleading because it’s free to download and they give you a sample of what they offer, but in order to continue you have to join and pay a fee. It’s too bad..Crazy4luluVersion: 5.17.2

✓ Misleading.The app claims to have in-app purchases but also free, which suggests usually that while some content and meditations might be free, some isn’t, or that you have to buy a few sections at once. Instead of setting it up to be ‘you can buy this section’ or ‘you can buy this course’ or ‘you can buy this single meditation’ or the like you are required to subscribe to access ANY of the content. That isn’t an in-app purchase, that’s asking you to buy the app for $10/month USD, EVERY MONTH. That’s completely ridiculous!.A solitary lemmingVersion: 5.1.1

✓ FraudActivated my account 4 years ago and paid for a yearly subscription, then changed my phone and were suddenly not able to log in… and it said the account didn’t exist. However, I have been taken money from every year since then, for this substitution that I cannot access. And I have tried to end the subscription MULTIPLE times, by contacting their support team and emailing. Not only will they not pay me back for what I cannot access, they don’t even reply to my emails. This is fraud and theft, and a company you cannot trust..KalsjdkslndldVersion: 5.13.12

✓ ..Can’t get rid of this account once downloaded. Even though I have ZERO SUBSCRIPTION I have the rights to cancel my account at any time - nowhere does it give the option for this so my details are active which means someone can steal this information and activate a subscription without my knowledge. Terrible! I have requested this be deleted multiple times to no avail and still the account is active REGARDLESS of subscription. All I wanted were my details deleted, the account like it was never activated yet here I am still active, again REGARDLESS of subscription. Disgusting that this is happening with a persons private information and doesn’t bode well for your customer service when someone is being ignored..HQPIVersion: 5.0.8

✓ Would benefit from some more free optionsI really love using this app, I’ve been using it every night recently before I go to sleep to try and help me sleep better. However I feel as tho for those of us who aren’t at a place where we are able to purchase premium don’t have a large variety to chose from. Which I understand but I’d very much benefit from having a few more free options available, that would increase my overall happiness with this app..JessieChick99Version: 4.7.014

✓ The App is Forgetful. Not Mindful.From session to session the app fails to remember where you left off. Pause a session midway and it doesn’t remember where you left off. It places you at the start of the session when you reopen the app. Login again and the course you are doing is lost in the home page whose only function appears to be pumping out a completely different course for you or a “for you course.” Can’t believe losing your place is so common on this app. Makes it an expensive and forgetful experience. -sigh.AinNOVAVersion: 5.26.5

✓ Crap appFind something else. I downloaded it - never used it once and just got hit for the auto renewal of $80. I know it’s my responsibility to watch subscriptions, but this is underhanded..Okay game to playVersion: 4.7.91

✓ Relaxation App ReviewYou all need to make sure that you are always able to add in as many unlimited amounts of features to this type of app in the sense of always being able to post up photos, videos as well as any other forms of media in general that would actually be able to help to demonstrate the ways that all types of users of apps like this type could always be able to learn about the ways of always being able to balance out any forms of stress that they all ever get regardless of the level of it and the ways that they all could always help make themselves as strong as possible to fight whatever it is that they all ever fell the need to fight from within and everything. All of the forms of media mentioned way earlier in the beginning should always be translated into as many different worldwide foreign languages as possible..Billy AlbornozVersion: 5.13.12
