Who it's for
This app is for individuals seeking daily positive affirmations, motivational messages, and journaling prompts to improve their mindset and self-love R3R14. It might be particularly appealing to those going through life changes or needing consistent encouragement R14. However, users who are sensitive to content focused on heterosexual relationships or male validation, or those who are wary of subscription management issues, should skip this app R9R10.
Evidence note: The recent reviews show a strong negative skew, particularly concerning billing and cancellation issues, which contradicts the lifetime rating. The developer's notes mention fixing 'empty plans and explore tab,' but do not address the widespread billing complaints, and reviews indicate ongoing glitches like affirmations stopping R22 and widgets not working R29. The evidence for subscription issues is overwhelming and consistent across multiple users.

- [R12] Yep: I love this app, makes me feel more like myself
- [R14] I thought I was doing well on my own…: but this app with encouraging mantras and reflective questions is keeping me centered and grounded in loving myself even more as I move through a major life change with divorce and building a slow burn healthy relationship with someone new.
- [R27] I love it: The daily affirmation are what keeps me going! Self reminders of every aspect of my life!
- [R8] Love it: I love the app how it gives you suggestions on how to make things easier and better for you . Sometimes for the journaling part tho I wish they can give some examples or suggestions because sometimes I am stuck in what I know so it does not challenge me to think outside the box . Or ask questions to get you thinking
- [R21] Mental health a important.: This app is another for of journaling for me. And wow thank you 🙏🏻
- [R1] I have deleted the app and am still getting charged: I am completely unsubscribed do not own the app anymore it is not listed anywhere and they have attempted to charge my card
- [R4] Not able to unsubscribe: The app itself is a good app, however the instructions to unsubscribe are not correct. Where the instructions tell you to go to unsubscribe the unsubscribe button is not there. Then they state to send an email which I have done for 3 months now and they are still charging my card. Beware
- [R10] Do not download this app: Very expensive…. very hard to cancel! You have to download another app, that forces you to pay a monthly subscription in order to email them to cancel the original subscription. It’s ridiculous. I don’t care how down in the dumps you are, this app is a nightmare to get rid of, and will Cause you more grief than what you came with. Beware!
- [R17] Not worth it.: Do not purchase. Impossible to cancel. No one gets back to you.
- [R19] Garbage: I sent 6 emails to stop my subscription !! I knew in 10’minutes it’s garbage. You can get words of affirmation anywhere free. They charged me even after all the emails. Don’t download you’ll regret !!
- [R2] Never signed up for a trial and got charged!: Never signed up for a trial and got charged!
- [R48] Scam - will take your money: I signed up for a free trial and have since been charged twice in the amount of 29.99 since canceling free trial. The reason I canceled and deleted the app was because although I had a “free trial” i still wasn’t able to access anything on it. If you don’t like giving money away, don’t download.
- [R9] Why is this app for women so obsessed with men?: Love the concept, but all the plans and affirmations about “How to make HIM obsessed with you”, and info on “How MEN perceive your archetype”. I quite frankly don’t give a F what men think about me, and I don’t want to attract them, I want to get RID of them. This does not cater to the LGBTQ+ community, and just personally really grosses me out th
- [R15] overcharged, a notepad & no customer services ce list: I needed something like this, but it’s so under delivers! The background pictures are visually about as exciting as ripping a page out of an brochure. It’s definition of love based of female obsession amd insecurity focused on what “he” will like - terrible. I got a month subscription in good faith and after 15 minutes, wrote the developers
- [R7] Too expensive: It costs to much
- [R46] The high rankings must be fake: Beware , they put some invisible high amount “subscription” after your initial payment , Dont Buy , there is no much of value inside , just some affirmations can find on YouTube for free , good pictures on a site and silly quizes , I overpay that much for some affirmation and was charged a lot extra for some subscription without refund !
- [R47] Total Scam: I signed up thinking it was a yearly subscription for $29.99 and they’ve been charging my Apple Pay account 29.99 a month since May. Beware of this app. Find another one, this one is a total scam.
- [R22] Glitchy: I love the personalized affirmations that I get throughout the day, but it only works for a couple days and then I have to go create a new reminder to start receiving them again. It has been like this for weeks now and I have the updated version.
- [R29] Widget: Not sure but the widget stopped working for me 😢, I use the widget to glance at my daily affirmations.
- [R18] Love this app but , one thing .: Of recent there’s been affirmations about “ex” I think this is discouraging maybe in some cases it’s okay to go back on your word . Breaking up with someone that is . Honestly though in my book ex is for a reason so having a relationship with my ex or anything to do with any of them is a NO GO (for me)!! I wish there was a way to say 👎🏽 To these affirmations abou
- [R23] Just no…: It has its bugs and I do not have a ex.
- [R50] A SCAM: I cancel app several times and they continue to charge me . Customer service are robots . Beware stay away
