It's sick and wrong that a self help app for tinnitus is commercialized for profit and to such a point that the free app is basically a chatbot, and the premium version includes the actual most worthwhile self help exercises. How disappointing. You should decide if you want to help people, or earn money, but doing both is very wrong

The sounds are great, and I can use them in the night to help mitigate the tinnitus. I wish I didn't have to re-log in each time, that can mean I go to another app that is quicker to access.

Love it!! It's very informative and a great and interactive way. You learn a lot about this condition without getting overwhelmed. On the contrary, it guides you properly in the path of making this condition more tolerable. The main target is to reduce the negative impact of tinnitus in your life. I'm enjoying it, and I know I will get there eventually. Very helpful app. Thank you so much for it.

Connectivity issues, Android 14, four bars. Most information is via video, I prefer to read. Hearing test would not load. I uninstalled this and I'm trying another, similar app, which seems to function better.

The app doesn't allow you to progress after reading the podcast. I got to the end of level 1. Didn't learn anything useful and wasted a half hour. Definitely, written by people who have never suffered from tinnitus

Poor performance and glitchy. Once I paid for the subscription it constantly needed me to log in. App Bot feels repetitive. Some of the sound loops repeat to quickly and i had to turn some off as they sounded like a hammer. Shame I had high hopes for the soundscapes.

Fine for people who need to relax, have positive thoughts, sleep better, calming music, lower stress. However I do these things and it doesn't lessen my tinnitus. I had hoped for something that would reduce the constant ringing. More of a medical breakthrough.

Ringing in the ears can happen for many reasons, even if you've worn hearing protection. Apps like this with ambient nature noise helps me a lot. I have multiple different devices, they all help in their own way.

All the usual stuff including cognitive masking, presented by a chatbot and podcasts. The screen layout is a bit daunting for a while. By the end of journey 2 you get the offer in a talk to buy some hi tech "hearing aids" for approx $au2k!. It used to be a "special" cassette player 30 years ago. To proceed to level 3 you must take some "free offers" before you can move past the TOLL Gate... I could see no exciting/major breakthrough presented, apart from the tinnybot collecting your info.

I have been on this journey for a while but have found the breathing and relaxation exercises the most helpful on this app. Important to implement the routine of doing these every day. Definitely helps reduced the severity of the tinnitus ring.

Enjoying using this app, still a lot of relaxation skills to learn, looking forward to getting better at dealing with tinnitus! Good for a bit of help and knowledge or going deeper into coping mechanisms which I intend to do! Lots of thought has gone into this app!

This may be a good app for people who have tinnitus from 'outside' stress. My tinnitus get very perceptable when I am tired or ill (which is another a form 'inside' stress) but it is always there to different degrees. Mine is probably more of nerve damage which, I don't think the app can help.

Dr Bardy and his team were very helpful to me . My tinnitus journey has been like so many of us have experienced quite a difficult one . The mind body connection is key to overcoming many of the issues that go along with learning to adjust to a new normal in our lives called tinnitus . Finding that connection has been made so much easier using the coping skills taught by Dr. Bardy and the team . THANK You ! Kindest regards Kelly

I was asked to install this by my audiologist to help reduce or get rid of my tinnitus. I was very sceptical and didn't use it until after my next apt and I was totally amazed by the difference in my tinnitus. Using it as directed, throughout the day and every day, not only reduced my tinnitus massively, but got rid of some of my tinnitus completely. I definitely recommend this app.

My rating is intended as neutral. I've had intense tinnitus since I was a child, I have no memories of not having multiple tones in both my ears and never heard silence in my life, so this app did not present anything I wasn't already doing. But, I did get excited and possibly too hopeful that there was a way to actually make the sounds stop. Guess not. I'm glad I accepted it ages ago. This app might be useful to people who have recently developed tinnitus.

Super frustrating. I did the whole tinnitus history, but it's not showing as completed and wants me to do it all over again. You MUST follow the script. Can't input individual thoughts. Wants to 'teach' me stuff I already know like breathing and mindfulness and I can't skip them. The podcasts are far too slow but no way of speeding them up. And that's just in the first 15 mins of use!

Had high hopes for this but the app is very buggy. Every time I tried to play a podcast, it failed to load and got stuck. I could read the transcript but this wouldn't allow you to move on to other exercises so progress was impossible. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but no improvements. Tried to get technical support, but the chatbot on the help page doesn't work either. Would be a great idea if they get it working properly. For now I've cancelled my subscription.

This app is always there for me when I struggle in the middle of the night. Keeping me calm and positive. I have successfully used the different app aids available, along with input from Fabrice et al and acheived a state where my tinnitus disappeared. I do need to still use the app during some troughs but the app ensures the tinnitus does not define me any more.... And remind me that there is always light at the end of the tunnel.

This app is wonderful, I'm starting to become very used to my tinnitus, and they don't charge an arm and a leg like a real therapists or other apps like Otto making tinnitus treatment accessible to everyone no matter how poor they are. That's worth a 5 star anyday!

I'm undecided at this point. for some reason on my week trial. My phone was on and charging when about 11:10 at night, the program just turned on through my speaker phone. I was unable to turn off the sound through the program. Finally shut off in about a total of 40 minutes. I would like to try mindear again but I need to use earbuds as I'm used to accustomed to my phone to talk and listen instead of just having background sounds.
