Soundly is actually good but I’m giving a one star review because there’s a serious bug where once you unlock all the characters you can’t do the multitask mode anymore. The author of Soundly never responds to support requests so I’m forced to give 1 star because I’m paying for an app I can’t use and I’m not receiving any support.

I subscribed to the free 7-day trial period, and cancelled after a couple days. Then I was charged $30 at the end of the 7-day period, even though my subscription is cancelled.
Apple says I’m not eligible for a refund. I don’t know what happened here, but I’ve been scammed.

It was a whole lot of fun at first but then it said continue tomorrow so i set a timer and then at the exact time tried it again. I had to pay a $30 subscription which is not worth it and is too expensive.
Overall 👎👎👎👎👎👎.

Good idea backed by research and a nice motivational tracker to help you stick with the program... but $30 per year to track how many “knee/naws” I say daily? Plenty of more comprehensive and complex healthy and lifestyle apps are so much less. Even the hidden lowest cost of $18/year is too much! And why do I need a friggin LOGIN for this? C’mon - if you are doing this as part of the UofM health study, then you can pay ME for my data!
App should be a stand-alone, one time unlock for maybe $5 with IAP and NO LOGIN!
by MrKelino
Love the concept, but it is crashing right now on multitasking mode every 20-30 knee-naws.
How am I meant to do hundreds of these things when it crashes every 20 times? Infuriating!
Sometimes I get 100 without a crash and I feel fortunate!

Soundly was working fine, perhaps was improving my snoring but too early to tell, then this last week it shuts off when I have played for 35 seconds. All the time. I've rebooted, not sure what else to do. I've paid for it, can't figure out how to contact the seller, need this fixed or my money back!

Beware. Before downloading, know that the “free” app is only a demo version that you can’t use after three days. From there, as of 21 May 2019, they try to gouge $9.99 a month for continued access. This is amazingly deceptive as there is no mention of this anywhere prior to downloading. I will never know whether or not Soundly works for reducing snoring because I refuse to be extorted.

The idea of working out your tongue and throat is great and seems to be working. I am not snoring near as much as I was. But the game itself is garbage. The characters only respond to naw or ahhhh, but not to knee. It does better with HHEEE...or neeet, or needin...but even then will lock up and just not move. It’s very frustrating not to ever be able to get past level 1. And I am exaggerating the knee. And my family sure knows I’m saying knee cuz they hear me all over the house. I’m giving a 2 because it is helping but the game doesn’t work and deserves a zero.

I downloaded this, to see if it would help Siri, and Tina ToyotaEntune, since neither one understands me very well. Although I have severe sleep apnea, I have never snored.
I was only able to use Soundly for 3 days. It is deceptive advertising to say this is a free app with “in app purchases”. In order to use it for more than 3 days, you have to pay $9.99/month or $99/year.
I gave 2 stars that would have been 4 stars, if this had truly been a free app. You get a demonstration for 3 days before purchase is more accurate.
by Lutherthegiant
It had great potential but it only let me use it for 3 days free until it said I had to pay to continue. Come on, $100 a year to say Knee and naw? It’s ridiculous. Claims they want to help people when all it is is another money hoarding corporation.
by Everyothernickisbloodytaken
Sometimes Soundly is confused between knee and naw and it's extremely frustrating. Should be better calibrated.
by Shearie
On my iPhone XR, multitask mode always crashes Soundly after a short amount of time.
There isn’t any sound in the main mode of the game and I have silent mode off and the volume turned up on my iPhone.
by Ethmah01
I was very excited to get and try Soundly, but then I learned it costs money... I’d rather have an option to enable ads and get a subscription for free. If you could add this change, then maybe I would consider trying it again. For now, I’ll rate three stars for potential, and I understand how it could cost money, but if I wanted to, I could just say “nee” and “naw” all I wanted and that would work just as well.

I’ve had trouble sleeping through the night and was diagnosed with mild sleep apathy. When this first started, I was employed as mathematics instructor who taught year round. Because of the numerous lectures, and not having any breaks so my voice could recover, I developed nodes on my larynx and my airway weakened. I’ve since left teaching and have recovered somewhat, but after coming across Soundly, I’ve noticed a definite improvement in my ability to project my voice and sleep.
The primary drawback with the is that once you complete the therapy by completing world 7, you are always at 100% for the day, so you’ve no idea how much exercise you need to do. This should be an easy fix, but I submitted an email a couple of weeks ago and received just an auto reply. Hopefully I will receive a human response or at the very least an update.
Update from February 4, 2019:
I initially received an auto reply from Brian Krohn, the CEO on January 3, 2019 from my initial email, stating he would follow shortly. At this point, I have not heard anything from him or anyone in his company. Perhaps he and his team have abandoned the project to move on to something else. If I ever receive any type of contact, I will let you know.
Update from February 22, 2019
Yesterday I downloaded an update, but I’m still having the same issue, with no word from Brian Krohn. I’ve no idea what they fixed. As you can see, many updates simply state “bug fixes.” I will keep you updated.

I give Soundly credit for really helping to reduce my snoring. I still snore, but not as much and not as loudly as before since I started using Soundly . I have high hopes that continued use of Soundly will reduce my snoring even further.
by Ellietta
I have been faithful in my daily exercise and have reduced snoring to mild ... most nights are under 5 minutes.
by Spinner2652
The game is pretty fun for being a therapy. Occasionally, I would forget I was doing a therapy and then I would remember I was helping reducing my snoring!
by Mjgvf
After many months, I still find it fun and entertaining. There is plenty of variety to the game. My snoring is less frequent and not as loud. I do not have any way to be certain but it feels helpful. I have not had surgery or made any other structural or specific environmental changes.
by Punpernick
Soundly greatly reduced my snoring, to the point where it no longer bothers my spouse. I have found that I have to keep using it to avoid lapsing back into my old habits - a fact that, while annoying, provides further evidence of its efficacy. I also suspect that it reduces my (mild) sleep apnea, improving quality of sleep and mental acuity. Quite amazing...
by Johnjrjohnjr
I’ve been using this app since it’s Beta stage. The exercises have definitely strengthened my throat muscles. According to my wife, my snoring is greatly reduced at night.
Thank you this app for developing this great program.

The Soundly TherapyTM is a physical therapy that strengthens and tones your upper airway, thus reducing the tissue vibrations that cause snoring.
The Soundly TherapyTM is based on the latest sleep snore mitigation research and was shown to reduce snoring in a randomized clinical study.
Soundly is a patent pending therapy that has been clinically proven to reduce snoring.
Soundly is a fun and effective way to reduce your snoring without wearing uncomfortable devices during sleep.
The Soundly TherapyTM was developed at the University of Minnesota’s Medical Devices Center in collaboration with the Fairview Sleep Center.
You can think of Soundly as physical therapy for your upper airway.
Soundly strengthens and tones your upper airway through a series of key vocalization exercises.
Snoring is caused by a weak and floppy airway that vibrates during inhalation.
Simply play the game for 15 minutes a day to begin reducing your snoring.
"Over the course of using the Betea version, I've felt my throat muscles become stronger.
To make our therapy fun and engaging we have built it into a voice-controlled game.
At first, had difficulty completing a 15-minute session.
"One interesting thing that I have noticed - My vocal cords have thickened slightly due to age/menopause.
Like other physical therapies, it can take several weeks to see the benefit.
