AI slop, not relaxing
I really wanna like this app but I’ve had multiple bad experiences with it. You’re much better off just pulling up a meditation on Spotify or YouTube. My main issue is a lot of the “coaches” and “content creators” seem to be AI. Their phrasing and voices don’t sound natural. How am I supposed to relax when a bot made the meditation?? On top of that, I listened to sleep hypnosis from one particular creator and had a nightmare that a demon was chanting over my body in my sleep. If Aura can’t deliver on quality, human-made content then why bother paying so much, it’s worthless.
Customer Service is Abysmal
Better not have a problem. They do not respond to emails.
Free to download. All content is behind a paywall
It’s pointless to allow a free down but then lock down every single aspect of the app.
Don’t waste money
The voices of narrators sucks!
Paywall
Absolutely everything on this app is locked behind a paywall, not a single free thing on it.
Not free
I downloaded the app, answered ALL the questions to find out nothing on the app is free! Waste of my time.
Classic steal your data and then make you pay
This app promises a lot, but by the time you’ve gotten through their forced menus at the beginning, you’re left with nothing. It’s nice that they have paid stuff, but they could say that upfront. Instead, they offer a bunch, ask a bunch and then deliver little while asking for your money.
Total scam avoid
Canceled and ended subscription before free trial ended but was charged 129.00. Google voice customer service number is all you need to know.
charge you after you cancel
be warned. This app charges you even after you cancel!
Don’t fall for free trial period
Charged for yearly subscription before “free trial” period up. Unable to actually cancel subscription. Did not find app useful.
No warning trial is ending
This app touts itself on assuring that they will send a reminder when the free trial is soon ending. However, this is a lie. They do not send any notifications and will continue to hit every card you have on file with APPLE to get your money. SCAM
Just way too much
I saw this advertised on a social media app and said it was like Spotify for mental health. I’m like well ok I’ll give it a whirl. I did the one month trial (which you have to pay for I thinking was $4.99) but did not utilize it much to warrant the $70 yearly fee. So before my trial ended I cancelled and I didn’t realize the app offers NOTHING if you aren’t paying. I did like some of the sounds offered to listen to while falling asleep. Every single one is locked. I’m so tired of these apps that try to say they aim to help with mental health, sleep, meditation etc but not without a hefty fee. Yes to some $70 annual isn’t a huge deal but they don’t even offer a monthly subscription option. It just doesn’t seem worth it to me so I’ll be deleting the app since again, unless you’re paying it’s completely non functional.
Sucks
Constant talking
Annoying and pushy
I forgot to turn off the free trial so stuck for a year. Every meditation begins with a proclaimer this is aura- very distracting. Very pushy on advertising and make it hard to cancel. I also don’t like any of the voices or words. Very stilted and weird passages like ai wrote them. Update- didn’t like calm either bc the meditations are good but all very short. Really liking Headspace though.
Fraudsters. DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY.
I tried to cancel the subscription I didn’t even know I had until my credit card was charged. No notification of upcoming renewal. I contacted Aura immediately to no avail. I’m stuck with this bill. I canceled my credit card to avoid these thieves from charging me again. STAY AWAY!!!! This company deserves to go out of business. Taking money from an 81 YO WIDOW. They have no conscience. I am ill but as soon as I recover I’m contacting the FTC to report their failure to allow cancellation of this unwanted subscription.
Ripoff
Wished a free trial as advertised and was immediately informed I was charged as I used a free trial over a year ago that I had no memory of. When I attempted a cancel and refund within a few days I was refused. So I’m stuck with this weak ridiculous subscription that I am now going to delete. I should have been notified I did not qualify for a free trial and why before I was automatically charged for a year. Lowlife ripoff.
Poor business tactics
I did not want a year of what turns out to be subpar sleep stories and yet here we are
Access link not provided after full premium paid subscription
If you want something to be successful, then it needs to work. If customers can’t access their full subscription and keep getting asked to sign up after they’ve already paid in full. This only creates frustration and disappointment and leads to cancellations. I suggest improving your system.
