2024-12-15 | Lori Lynn Jobe | I was willing to put up with the ads to keep the free version. I just wanted one sound to play continuously. But no. After a couple of weeks, the continuous play stopped working. It defaults to 2 hours even though I select continuous loop. This didn't force me to buy the paid version. It forced me to uninstall. | |
2024-11-23 | Felicity Tessa | I love that there are a lot of different stories and meditations to choose from. I like the background sound effects. I like that you can choose by narrator. The only downfall is the sleep tracking. It's a great idea, but it's so buggy. Once it showed I went back in time in my sleep. It also says my average bedtime is 4pm. Wish they would fix this because sleep tracking is important to me and I do use the app almost every night. | |
2024-11-13 | allycookie2009 | I cannot get through one story without falling asleep. I have been listening to the same story for more than 7 nights. Also, I love that you can choose a background noise while listening to a story, I use the fan noise mostly, but I also enjoy the stream noises. I only use the free version. You are able to lock the screen while listening. | |
2024-09-15 | Laura Floom Manning | I have used Calm and Slumber to help me fall asleep. I like Slumber the best. But I often wake up when the sounds stop, so I add a couple episodes of whatever story I am listen to and then follow it up witha bunch of music (mostly binural) and this works great, but I have to set it up each and every night. If there were editable playlists that we can save it would be so much better. They say they are working on it. I hope they deliver soon! Calm has finally created playlists. | |
2024-09-03 | Teresa Lindstrom | I use this app every night for meditation or stories to sleep. It has helped me alot! The only reason I gave 4 stars is because when I get a bedtime reminder notification, the suggestions are a day behind than what is actually suggested when you open the app. Can this be fixed? It's annoying because the notification suggests something I may like, but then I have to search for it in the app. | |
2024-09-03 | Grace Howard | I use this app about four times a week when I have difficulty falling asleep. I never paid for the premium because they have free stories available. It's a great option when you can't afford an extra bill per month. Even if I wanted to pay premium eventually it is not as expensive as most other sleep apps. I definitely will continue to use as long as they keep adding free story's/sounds/music. | |
2024-07-09 | Style_ Asylum | I absolutely love this app. I never paid for it and I feel like I don't need to. They have so many you can listen to! It helps me sleep through the night peacefully, and I wake up feeling refreshed most nights. I do wish that you could make a playlist of your favorite stories so you could have them play through the night instead of the queue that will stop once each story is over. | |
2024-03-16 | Erica Call | Cool. I can restore purchase. What about how I can't save a playlist? Or how more often than not the app crashes less than 10 min into anything and when you go to restart your playlist it's deleted? Y'all want WAY too much for this buggy of an app. The only positive I have is the ability to customize background sounds but the choices are very limited. | |
2024-03-11 | Wendy L Zwickl | Was an awesome app! Unfortunately, it no longer works properly. The sound won't stay on when the screen locks. Not very helpful for falling asleep anymore, sadly. I've already emailed you. I was told you are working on a fix for this. I haven't heard anything more since mid February. The last update was Jan 3. | |
2023-12-11 | K Moore | **Update** Back a year later. I was able to, afford slumber again, they decreased the price! I was a little sad, I hadn't redownloaed for a year & decided to see if any changes with the price & it was. Thanks so much, now I'm able to listen to soothing sounds, storytime & fall asleep. Love this app. The stories & sounds are Perfect. But paying 60.00 was absurd for me to do, I wont be paying again next year unless they lower the price. |
