So far, I really like it. I usually listen to ambient music so it’s nice. Some things that are annoying: I couldn’t find how to play the sounds on desktop (windows). There also seems to be some weird caching issue with the site where it does not remember that I’m signed in. It’s also annoying […]

Not really a fan of having the automatic subscription button (which pops up upon initial setup) be titled “Continue”, as well as the app asking for permissions such as health, location, and more. I’m sure some of these are used for some purpose, but combined with using a free trial -> subscription model that attempts […]

I like Endel. I cannot recommend it. Some of the things it did like the sleep noises and the smart wakeup are genuinely good ideas I haven’t seen elsewhere. But it’s buggy. You can’t really use as an alarm because some mornings the smart alarm doesn’t go off. And even after closing it, it would […]

I just started using it and the music settings are actually far more enjoyable than I expected, and don’t distract me when working. I’ll update later once I use it more. Update: the app works fairly well, but it’s an energy-hog due to generating some of the music on the device. You need to keep […]

This app looked really great, but the cost is hidden at the end of a series of questions, and after you’ve linked your social media, or given them your email. Only THEN could I see how expensive this truly is, and even though I can’t afford it, now you’ve got my data to sell anyway. […]

Im using it free, just by clicking x every time there is a prompt, but I gotta tell ya. Some times I’m in the process of waking up and I think it bugged and isn’t playing anymore, but when I pick up the phone and pause it the silence is deafening. It completely naturalizes into […]

I really wish the app performed well, but as it is I can’t spend the money on the subscription. I love the music and I do feel it helps. My favorite feature is the focus timer, but it always stops working. I have never once had it work all the way through a long break. […]

Uninstalled You must sign up & Verify for an account to find out that there is a price of 119$ per year. I’m guessing knowledge upfront of price options would have lowered the account signup numbers. It was like : ” hi there, trickery, BAM!!”. These days of inflation, I can find many needed ways […]

I really, and I sincerely mean really, want to just love, love, love this app. I love the beautiful simple design. I love the sounds and ability to customize them. So why only 3 stars? Their subscription model, or should I say lack of one. First, $100/yr is nuts. Second, while they run specials or […]

I installed the app excited but they have a 50$ subscription for a year. That’s a lot for an app that doesn’t give you audio forever, that is a monthly fee. I was willing to pay 50$ if I could keep the app and the music for a 1 time price. But only for a […]

Tldr; Limited casting options, too pricey. It’s a neat concept, I was especially hopeful of the prospect of drawing inspiration from my environment as cues for the ambience (time of day, weather, heart rate, activity). However, in practice this doesn’t do anything that a handful of playlists I follow on Spotify already do, and those […]

You may not believe that it works as well as it does, but I get much more done when this is playing. It’s customizable between relaxation, and different productivity types. There’s enough variation in the sounds to allow you to choose what gets you going. I have found that the day after I have listened […]

I like a lot of ideas behind this app, and I did enjoy using it during the trial. However, for a subscription app, it doesn’t do everything it claims, mostly because it relies solely on Google fit data, which I don’t have. Add more fitness tracker apps (i.e: Fitbit, Garmin, etc) sync function and I’d […]

The Endel App plays music and sounds for focus, sleep, relaxation, and mood enhancement. It’s ok, not as good as Calm for the price. If it was less expensive or more robust, it would easily score a 5, but as is, it doesn’t do much more than the right Spotify playlist. I like it, it’s […]

The free trial is a joke. I didn’t find the app useful and have not found a way to cancel. The app shows I have the premium service but says I dont have a subscription. Endle directs me to cancel the subscription on Google Play. Google Play shows no record of a subscription or transaction. […]

I paid for a one-year subscription. And I can’t even log in via Google on my phone. It works on my web browser, and it works as a PWA. But that’s about it. No native app support. I keep getting a tracker error and an infinite loading loop. I have tried reaching out via their […]

I really enjoy the app. I’ve been using it for a while. My one gripe is with tuning the nature sounds. sometimes the sounds I want to combine can’t be done with the radial tuner. for example, I just want rain and thunder with no ocean or wind, or rain and fire. I’d like a […]

I would love it if the programs reliably played for the duration they claim they will. But they don’t. Even with the awareness that I was told, with the free version the most I’ll get is 10min at a time. That’s not how it works, and customer service has never been able to answer my […]

The in-app purchase o f the premium version is completely broken on Samsung Galaxy Z-Fold 6. I purchased a year, and cannot use anything but the free options. I work in IT, and tried every conceivable troubleshooting step to get it to give me access to what I paid for. Sadly, no luck. what a […]

I selected 7 day trial, and it still charged me $130 immediately. I was wondering if it was crispy recognizing the 7 day trial toggle, so I googled it multiple times, closed and reopened the app, but it still didn’t give me the trial. Give me my money back and I’ll update the review,and maybe […]
