Please fix for iPhone X. I loved this app and now get no sound. I’ve tried to contact the developer but no response
Helps Anxiety Attacks

I find this helping as a grounding method before/during anxiety attacks because it forces me to focus on moving my finger with the dot in a precise fashion, so it changes my minds focus.
Relaxing

Simple but effective for me. I do wish there was more option in color and sound choice. At least color.
Good app, dated on a couple fronts

I find the app really lovely. The initial blob is not something you’re following so much as something you’re leading. The aggregating color helps bring my focus to the session. Once the screen was filled with color, I began exploring the colors. The first time it filled with a gradient from blue to green to gold to orange from bottom to top. I found myself exploring these gradients and the way the direction of my motion changed my perception of them and how my finger obscuring parts of the gradient would make different colors stand out. This was all surprisingly engaging. That said, there are a few things this app really needs to rise to the next level for me: 1) Some sort of audio or haptic feedback for when you’re moving too fast. It instructs you to close your eyes and then puts feedback on screen in text. :\ 2) Update to support the full screen of iPhone X. Seeing black bars is distracting and using the full screen of the X would make the experience much more immersive. 3) An Apple Watch app. This would be a great place to offer feedback while the user’s eyes are closed. 4) Siri support to start a new session without needing to locate the app.

Wonderful and mindful moment of clarity. Starts off with a lava-lamp looking blob that you move around the screen, then as you get the hang of it the blob fills the screen and you close your eyes to relax. Really great. Nice to destress for 3-5 minutes when things get overwhelming. As of this writing (Jan 25, 2018), the app has not been updated for iPhone X. Still functions, but it isn’t the full screen. Hopefully they will update it soon!?
Keep it a dot!

I would like this app a whole lot more if the moving blob of color stayed that: a blob. Instead , the color takes over the whole screen so that you're just moving your finger around a plain, albeit colored, screen. I like the visual of the color blob. It's relaxing. But I give up once it takes over.
Wow

It really works if you want it to. I was annoyed the first time I used it because I didn't know what was going to happen when I closed my eyes. Should I keep moving my finger? How will I know when it's over? Once I figured that stuff out I started doing it right and having fun exploring. And relaxing. Clearly I needed this app. Thanks!
Nice way to focus
serene and impatient
But why no Health integration? This should write mindfulness minutes to Health.
Integrate w Apple Health

Very simple and calming app. With the new health updates in iOS 10, it would be great if session data could be added to Health's Mindfulness section
