Insomnia and Relief

Xapn

I have had insomnia since I was very little and before that I was a restless sleeper. After trying several various things to get me to sleep I came upon SleepGenius back when it was still available as free for a trial run. Immediately falling in love with it and noticing direct improvement once I adjusted to the noise. I purchased said app and found one of the extra tracks helped me sleep better than the trial one. Giving this four stars instead of five because they no longer allow a trial run or even a small trial period - say a month - and as a result when I recommend it to people they are often unwilling to purchase and waste money in case they don’t like it. Additionally, there was an update ages back that tracked your sleep pattern and asked questions and such that has since been removed. I found that I liked being able to track my sleep quality within the app and wish that it was still available.

Great

If I have to fall asleep quickly, it helps me relax. It’s also great for when I have to wake up before 6:00.

Used to love it....

Best app for falling to sleep and LOVED the gradual alarm. But it doesn’t work...at all. Really do love this when it works but this wasn’t a cheap app.... and it doesn’t anymore. Buyer beware.

Music wakes me up

I wear a Fitbit to bed so it confirms that running this app instead of my white noise machine gave me one of the worst nights of my life. I want a refund.

Battery killer

Great app. I love power naps and gentle wake ups. But background activity is killing my iPhone XS battery. It started happening about 3-4 days ago. I don’t know if it was an iOS upgrade I did (I’m a slow adaptor) vs. an app update (I have auto updates turned on). I have a new iPhone XS and background activity nearly killed my battery in 12 hours — without even a wake up alarm set!

The wake up alarm on this app is so nice

I’ve been using it for years. It’s so effective at subtly waking you up, I didn’t even hear the first two minutes for the first several months I owned the app, and have never slept through the alarm either. I genuinely feel good when it goes off.

Very helpful as a bipolar ❤️

Sleep music is too distracting

Jsl271

The relaxation, nap and wake up programs are great however the sleep music wakes me up. I’ve tried all of the choices and none of them keep me asleep. The music seems too aggressive for sleep music and it changes too frequently so as soon as I feel like I’m about to sleep a new sound comes on and wakes me back up.

I am so thankful for this app. I especially like the nap feature. It really lets me get recharged.

Over a year as a paying customer and not happy with my purchase

This app is very disappointing. I wish I had never paid for it. In over a year they have not added any new tracks or even the ability to control the music volume independently of the background noise. The music starts out quietly and relaxing but seems to get louder with higher “tinny” tones after you fall asleep which then wakes you up. The help/feed back no longer works and gives you a “network connection error” When it did work numerous times I suggested that they allow the users to control the volumes separately. Never once have I gotten a response. If you look through the reviews as I have there are no developer responses to any reviews. I did give two stars because the app is good in concept as in it starts out relaxing, but even on the lowest timer it ends up waking me up and becomes annoying to the point of having to shut the app off and struggle myself back to sleep. Yes I have tried all four tracks and they all seem to have the same annoying high pitched tones.
