Calm - Sleep, Meditate, Relax

*To the developers/owners.* I'm starting a 2nd year of Calm. I really like it, enough to pay the money (the most expensive app I have). I use nearly every feature. However, I'm completely annoyed and wish you would change one thing: before Christmas there's been a special discount/share offer that was continuously up on my screen(taking up space). NOW it's a pop-up ad! It's February! And it's incredibly annoying and distracting! The opposite of what the app is meant to do! Please get rid of it!

This app is shockingly bad. It looks good on the surface, but it is so very half baked. Playlists don't actually play everything in the list. The curated lists are broken into 1 to 5 minute videos, but the app stops after each video, asking for a review. It is jarring to have to unlock my phone, click through prompts, and start a new session which also asks you to write a note and click tags (with no context at all). I just fall back to YouTube and regret paying a year for this. For celebrities

Just started using the app since it is available to me at no charge through my employer. It's a nice app but... cluttered I guess is the word I'd use. I've found it difficult to navigate. Like just getting back to the beginner lessons took me a bit. It'd be nice to just be able to pick up where I left off when doing w mukti-day course.

Used to love this app. Simple, great content. It's now subscription based, which I wouldn't mind, except it's also bloated with so many different things that just aren't interesting to me and I haven't been able to find the types of meditations I used love. Being overwhelmed with content and struggling to find what I want is not a great experience when popping in to find those few quiet moments of solace amidst the chaos. I've let my subscription expire and have no interest in renewing.

I like the concept and a bit of the content.. but you'd think having a soothing voice would be a prerequisite for narrating on an app like this. So far, *at least half* the narrated things I've listened to have been horrible. The voices get on my nerves, the tone is not warm or soothing. It's just really awful.

The app features and playlist options wre good but the app itself is sooooo difficult to navigate, that Calm itself is ironically frustrating. I don't meed to get worked up and frustrated before bedtime trying to find my Favourites. And the settings options are pretty unhelpful. You need to have a photographic memory to remember "oh no, that setting isn't what all the other apps put in your account details or options, that 'sound off' setting is in the tiny icon top left, home screen".

I feel that this is a very beneficial part of my ability to handle stress and anxiety. I suffer from an extreme anxiety disorder that leaves me paralyzed with fear and agitation when not handled properly. I have found with the help of apps like calm and my cognitive health providers and medication and meditation I can recover from what once left me hopeless and stressed out.

I really love this app! I've tried other apps for a year, free apps but nothing compares to Calm. They have everything. The meditations are the primary reason for me getting this but I love the sleep stories and the different genres of music. Even though I don't have kids, the kid sleep stories are wonderful. Captain Dreambeard is my favorite.

They charged my credit card twice. I cannot activate it on my phone without another charge. I cannot access any content. They have charged me twice, once for sleep app and once for premium app. And I have absolutely nothing to show for it. What a rip off. Not one human being to contact about it, either. Beware!!!

I like the sleep story content a lot. The app has too many extras, like streak and habits, etc. I have to dismiss two screens to get to the content. We're missing some core features, like listening on a smart speaker, especially considering they just dropped their Sonos integration.
