Praise

What users love

  • Content Quality
    • It has my favorite soundscapes from the original Calm app
  • App Performance
    • Faster app speed across the board. Speed/latency is my biggest complaint with the standard Calm app.
Complaint

Common complaints

  • Redundancy and Value
    • Why do you have 2 apps doing basically the same thing with overlapping features?
    • I am hugely insulted that after paying for a lifetime Calm subscription, I’m expected to pay an additional charge.
  • Technical and UX Limitations
    • Nothing was available in airplane mode. I’m not always online and this is a crucial feature for me.
    • If my phone isn’t plugged in... if the app plays all night, I will wake up and my phone will be completely dead.
