The instructions to cancel do not cancel, seems this app makes it difficult just to collect more $

App made to reduce stress but the cost stresses me

I’ve been using Headspace to meditate for 8 years now and it’s something I keep coming back to. After trying other forms of mindfulness, as well as TM, this app seems to be the way that works to keep me practicing consistently. My only critique is that it doesn’t make it easy to continue doing previous meditations. Especially if you’re doing a course. Instead of saving the course to your history, you have to go in and manually find the course every time you want to continue. This can be especially annoying because sometimes courses have similar names or subject matter. Also, you aren’t always able to save a meditation to your “favorites”, making some hard to find when you want to revisit them. Still love it, but would appreciate a more accessible format more than I need extra features like workout videos.

If you are hoping this app will assist you will getting to sleep - this is not the app you are looking for. I had high hopes especially seeing all the favorable reviews - dint believe them . Content is Ai created with weird accents.

When I got this app, I was offered a 14 day free trial where I would not be billed until the end of said trial. Upon accepting, I was immediately charged for an entire year. Since I got through the app, customer service refused to help and I am having to fix the issue through Apple. Additionally, without a subscription, everything is locked behind a paywall. They don’t even offer a small sample mediation to see if you’d actually enjoy the product. Scam behavior.

If you search sleep meditation there’s only one over 20 minutes. In general they a plethora of short meditations. Lacking longer meditations.

cant do nun without a subscription dont even bother

This was a great app but the writing was on the wall for it as soon as they added the AI chat bot that they wanted you to use like a therapist. As of today, 10/1/26, they’ve sold out to Sword, a tech bro AI “health” company. Cancelled the subscription immediately.

Often times I open the app and I feel more lost than when I decided I needed to meditate in the first place. I can’t find what I need, when I need it and it feels like doom scrolling for 15 minutes before I find a meditation that will actually help me. By that time I’ve moved on from my initial stress to the new stress of just trying to navigate the app. There needs to be a better way to find what is actually going to help the user, if you are going to rely heavily on AI to generate meditation sessions then why not have AI to assist in finding something that is specific to what a user is feeling or needs at any given time? There is also a severe lack of choice in what instructor you would like to hear from. Many people who seek help from an app like this would appreciate the ability to filter by voice type or instructor and it’s hard to even find that information once you’ve selected a piece of media.

This is a great app, especially for people just getting into mental health and meditation. The addition of an AI is not only unhelpful but unethical as well. We should not be encouraging people with mental health issues to rely on AI for help. It is unsafe and the privacy issues alone are extremely concerning. I encourage everyone to consider the safety and privacy implications before engaging with AI. Headspace? remove Ebb.
