Our verdict

A down-to-earth choice for sceptics and beginners who want teaching, not just tracks. The free tier is decent but the yearly plan is a notable cost; the app is now called Happier Meditation.

Good
  • Free access to three courses and 50+ meditations
  • Personalised plans
  • Suits beginners and experienced meditators
Not so good
  • Yearly subscription is pricey
  • Phones only

Best for

beginners
