So I really like this app, I want to give it 5 stars but.... 1. It won't play anything all the way through. It just stops playing mid way through the selection. Sometimes I fall asleep and don't realize it fully till I see the app in the morning, and sometimes it stops playing before I'm asleep. That's not helpful at all. 2. I look for the longest running sound tracks. Ie: over 90 minutes. The current filter only searches over 60 minutes. There's a lot to sift through to find the longer tracks.

Access to a ton of content, which is great. Navigating that content is hit or miss and the search leaves something to be desired. The app constantly interrupts you for input, check-ins, teacher ratings, which is fine except there's no obvious way to turn them off. It just forced me to reconfirm my email address, year of birth, and the whole "why you're here" section. An app that feels needy and insecure...

This app was, at one point, the perfect app. but that was quite a while ago, and many iterations. much like facebook, they choose to change it on a whim, changing the entire platform. this is by far one of the most stress-inducing apps I have on my phone. I wish there was a viable alternative, but all the other apps just don't have as much music selection. as soon as I find a viable alternative, I will immediately switch. this app frequently makes me want to pull my hair out.

July 2025 thinking about finding another, more simple app.. Too many pop-ups that can't be disabled. Too many menus to find the features I've used for 9 years! Subscription is expensive & according to most reviews not worth it anymore, so I won't re-subscribe. Nov. 2021 Love this app, it got me into regular meditation. Some of the live sessions have been transformative! Made some really beautiful connections through the groups feature too. Thank you for creating such a lovely community :)

This used to be a great app, but now they're heavily pushing user engagement with forcing you to click "I'm committed" after a meditation and several more selections before you can start another meditation, with no way to skip these steps. Is it just me, or shouldn't a meditation app allow me to be, ahem, MINDFUL of what I "commit" to?

All I wanted was to download a free audio file & downloading from the website is no longer allowed. I don't have fast internet so streaming doesn't work. I don't appreciate being forced to install an app then being forced to do the trial of the paid version to download anything so I can listen to it properly offline. I never do trials of paid versions because it's mean to glimpse a luxury I will never own & cancelling is a nuisance. I don't have an income. No app is worth renting indefinitely.

With every update, it gets harder and harder to stay in love with this app. This is what I use to fall asleep. Once, I could easily and quickly bring up the next track, which is critical when I'm on the verge of falling asleep. Suddenly insight timer is making me play twenty questions in order to continue. I wish it was something that I could disable. I understand this app is also used for actual meditation and these games might be helpful but I just want to sleep.

This has been my go to app for a meditation timer for years. But it is harder to justify using with the constant dialogs, questions, social features, etc. I don't want to track my meditation duolingo style. I just want to use the timer with a bell sound. I am sure the other features are great, but if you just want a timer. This app is missing the mark.

I love this app - SO many different tracks to choose from in the free version, it's amazing. however, I can no longer find where to "SET AN INTENTION" for the day to show up in my widget. It looks like it was switched to a "goal" which I don't need - I already have many to do list apps and notepads for that. I just want to set an intention/reminder and see it on my widget on my home screen. Is there a way to get that back???

A fantastic resource for mindfulness, meditation, daily reflection and journaling. Even better you can access a bunch of the content for free! You can bookmark your favorite meditations, follow your favorite teachers, create and name folders to organize content you've saved, write journal entries and more....ALL for FREE! The best app I've found for providing free, accessible content. If you can afford to support the app, content creators and teachers the Plus version has even more to offer!
