Mantra - Daily Affirmations Reviews

I love Mantra, but I want to have the ability to just use my own custom affirmations, and make custom lists as well as using stock categories. Also, would be more useful if my custom affirmations would be shown more often in the mix. I haven’t seen one of my own yet. That would make Mantra even more powerful. Another thing I’d like to see is a setting to repeat the affirmation like a this app and set it for an an interval that repeats each one up to 10x in a row, which would be very useful with the text to speech function which I find very useful. That would be really cool and really helpful. Everything else about it I absolutely love. I don’t know if I’d keep paying for it though unless I can make custom lists and use only my own affirmations on these custom lists without mixing it with the built in affirmations. I use affirmations with a brain entrainment app in the background as a meditation tool for for self hypnosis therapy, a cognitive enhancer, and as a part of my spiritual practice, so custom lists are very important to me especially with hypnosis because I do not want to plant thoughts in my head I don’t necessarily agree with. Over all great app! Highly recommend trying it. Like I said though, to keep paying for it it would need upgrades like the ones I suggested, and I would potentially be willing to pay more for it as well.

I’ve never written a review, because I never cared enough about an app I was using. This one is different, and I’d give 6 stars if I could.
...I’m in a place in my life where I wanted to work on consciously making my mind more positive. I got affirmation books, do daily meditation readings, repeat an anchor thought (ie: Things Are Always Working Out For Me), and bought lovely card decks I put all around me.
Almost ignoring it at first, I added Mantra, not expecting much. But it’s become my absolute favorite. A bright spot, a happy touchstone, that uses tight and just right affirmations.
Something about being sent such positive & uplifting message through the phone just works for me. Like a message from a Higher source.
Recommend!!

I’ve just started using this app and I’m generally impressed. It’s aesthetically very polished — one of the nicest-looking affirmations apps I’ve seen — and it wraps a lot of features into a deceptively simple and smooth interface.

However, there are a few features I really want that don’t seem to be implemented currently. They are:

1) For Mantra home screen, I’d like to be able to deselect all canned affirmation categories (currently not possible as far as I can tell) and select to display only custom affirmations (currently it doesn’t seem to be possible to display custom content directly on Mantra home screen at all; you must access it through the menu); and, further, to be able to select which custom content to display by collection;

2) For reminders, I’d like to be able to select specific custom collections to display, rather than all custom content

I’m currently not sure if it’s worth continuing my trial, since my main desire for an affirmation app is to display my own personal affirmations — however, with these additional features I’d definitely love to keep it as I really appreciate the look and general experience of Mantra .

Review bottom line: if you don’t plan on heavy use of custom content, this is a beautiful, highly functional app. The support for custom content however, could use improvement.

I love Mantra. The paid subscription is worth every cent. I love how much you can customize everything from writing your own affirmations, recording your own voice (which is known to boost your manifesting by saying it out loud). The images to chose from are gorgeous, especially the live nature! Suggestions-I would love to have the option to add my own photo so I could use this as a vision board with my affirmations. Also, if it could have a timer setting to play automatically for 1 min, 5 mins, etc. so you could use it as a meditation of sorts for a extra powerful boost! Even without those features Mantra is still 5 stars all the way!

I downloaded Mantra because I have been having such a hard time with my anxiety and it’s been negatively affecting both my physical and emotional health. It has left me confused and angry and sad and embarrassed that I used to be so in control of myself and that I haven’t been able to now for the last two months. I’m still on my journey of rediscovering myself and I hope at the end of this, I am better than I ever was. Mantra gives me my daily affirmation, and helps me cling to whatever progress (big or small) I’ve made, and reminds me to keep going 💕 I needed this.

I was loving Mantra until today when I opened my app and I was kicked out of premium and I’ve tried to restore my purchase and nothing works. My subscription is still active until September and there’s no where to get support! Seriously??? UPDATE: Reached out to the developer and things were fixed quickly. Great customer service and I appreciate their taking my and others concern seriously. Simple bug fix. All works like it should again.

I love Mantra so much, I believe it is well worth the $20 for a membership because it is SO well made however I just have one small suggestion of change. I love the idea of setting the time for notifications but I reallyyy would like Mantra to notify me multiple times throughout the day instead of just once. I tried seeing if there was a way to implement this but I couldn’t do it. So if there was an option to choosing how many notifications you receive a day and still choose the times I would SURELY give Mantra five stars. Thanks! 🌸

I downloaded Mantra to help me along in my self-love journey. I use the daily affirmations as a prompt to my journaling and I love it. I love the widget function and everything about Mantra but my only thing to make Mantra 5 stars would be having the widget show what the daily affirmation is instead of a random one. I have to go into Mantra every time I want to read the daily affirmation and I want the widget to show it so that I can see it when I use my phone and keep the affirmation in mind throughout my day. If this is possible, Mantra would be perfect for me

Good - it reminds me to talk positively and serves as a motivation to check in with myself to make sure I am speaking positively to myself
Annoying - sometimes it pops up at inconvenient times which isn’t that big of a deal
Super Annoying + why I’m deleting Mantra : this is supposed to be an app designed for self love and care. So why did I have to make a decision to upgrade with 35% percent off in under a minute? There literally was a counter counting down the seconds. It just seems invasive and like a marketing gimmick on steroids. No, thank you to that. Thank you for motivating me to make my own app using my phone’s calendar. At least I won’t get annoying pop up ads.

I’m rating it 5 stars, so far.... I love that I get to wake up and click the button to get positive affirmations! If the affirmation doesn’t quite apply to me or I want another one, I can refresh it. I also love listening to the calming music. Overall, it’s great! btw this isn’t one of those apps that lets you do basically nothing without upgrading to premium, you can do most things without it! And I’m not getting like coins or whatever for giving a 5 star response, this is genuine!

Even with the free version Mantra is helping me to be more positive. I feel better everyday that I use it. I really appreciate the option to send affirmations in notifications, times, as it helps me remember to do my affirmations. I haven’t really laughed in so long and after just two days I’m making jokes and I’m feeling like my old self again. I couldn’t be more happy with this app!

Really enjoy Mantra. Love the vibe. My reason it’s 4 instead of a 5 is I have a pretty sizable list of my own custom mantras I want to remind myself of, without having to select the generic pre-baked ones from Mantra . You’re required to select at least one other category besides custom and it feels like my own mantras are in circulation with one other category 1 out of every 10. Hope this feature can get introduced. Thanks!

How simple to receive a this app for yourself! I found the ease of use so compelling that there were no excuses in using Mantra! Finally as in life everything isn’t always a fit. If the this app did not speak to me I could easily get another one. Plus the feature to save or share was a value added feature for me too.

Why not try Mantra for yourself?

I wanted to like Mantra and had hope for it. But part of the problem I suppose is that it isn’t customizable. I’d often get mantras about my “career”, and I’m a student so that doesn’t apply to me right now. It was also very secular which is fine for people that are but for me I don’t think things happen because of the “universe” or that I’m a divine being. I’m glad a lot of people seem to like this and I hope it continues to do well, but it’s not for me.

I need to practice more positive self talk and the best way I know to do that is through mantras. Having a fresh positive statement every morning really helps me get through my day. The themes are beautiful and I love that I can save the statements that work for me.

The one missing feature I really wish were there is the ability to type in your own affirmative statements so they cycle with the rest, or at least to put them on the favorites list. That’s what I’m looking for.

I do enjoy the affirmations as well as the ability to tailor to my choices. However I have questions about privacy. I attempted to use the support link but it does not work. So my only option is to post here. Can someone contact me about my questions? I read the privacy tracking, not very clear - example I get affirmations about being an entrepreneur- please explain.

Love Mantra ! Did a good comparison of other apps and this one wins it. HOWEVER, the only thing holding me back from buying premium version is that it only allows one notification per day. Would be better if we can choose multiple notifications and each notification shows the affirmation of the day on the locked screen without having to enter Mantra .

Hope this update can come soon so I can purchase! :)

I like how it only takes a minute or two to use Mantra daily with all the sounds and imagery it creates. And each this app gives a positive outlook of everything in life that will make me realise there's so much good in the world if one only looks and open their mind and heart.

The mantras are good, but you have to open Mantra to see them. I would've liked to just receive them as a notification and not have to open Mantra . However, I like that you're obligated to take a deep breath before the this app appears in Mantra . But anyways, I would still prefer to just have the notification of the this app and not waste time opening Mantra .

This would be a 5 star app with a few changes - 1) give paid subscribers the option to remove the date from the affirmation page, and 2) allow paid subscribers to choose whether they hold the button down or simply swipe up rather than having to hold the button down to see the next affirmation. I love the backgrounds and sounds, but if I’m paying for an app I should be able to customize my experience a little bit.

I love the background music “Pearl”! I’ve looked up the song but this seems to be a faster version of the original piece. May I know where I can find the pearl background song or what it’s called? Thank you so much! Mantra has helped me tremendously and I’ve subscribed to premium😍

it’s frustrating to me that there are weight related affirmations because they are very triggering to me as someone recovering from an eating disorder. there’s not way to filter out certain words or topics and that seems like something that would be relatively easy to do and would make for a much better user experience.

Mantra is great! Every morning I get to read something positive about myself 💗 if I feel the affirmation doesn’t quite apply to my life I can refresh for a new one! I read it and repeat it. Makes my morning brighter or when I need something uplifting before sleep 💞

Just lacking and only on frame is open without paying....sort of does not have any point to it. Wish it had any kind of option or something To do....no point to app
