Lasting Reviews

My wife and I have been using Lasting for more than a week now. The sessions have really helped initiate some positive dialog. They are designed in small chunks and have been easy to get through. However, we felt that we were left on our own for those questions where we did not agree. You are just... Show more left hanging without much guidance as to how to get through the conflict. Perhaps some in app videos would help or suggestions for on demand workshops. There were a couple of audio clips but the rest of the sessions were all text. There is a library of on demand workshops but those are not linked to the sessions so you are on your own to find the workshop that aligns with the session.
The amount of bugs in Lasting has been frustrating. We are having problems with the daily conversation feature where my partner will type a message to me and I will get an alert but I am unable to see this message. I have to ask her to take a screen shot and text it to me. I also have had problems starting the daily conversation where I click the button to start but then the topic is not presented to me. However, my partner can see the topic but I never get to see any of the replies. I also am unable to see details on any of the upcoming workshops but my partner can. Overall this is a good app with lots of potential.

I actually really enjoy Lasting (I’m a couples therapist) but my biggest pet peeve is they do not push users to get related professional help when needed. It would be great if all of us could handle these discussions without a fight but it’s just not likely because there are deeper things happenin... Show more g. We unfortunately don’t just read the article and change all the behaviors we have had for years. Use couples therapy to manage the difficult topics and explore more personal experiences (ex: trauma, upbringing, addictions, etc) but use Lasting to continue the work outside session. Meeting once a week with a therapist is the norm but not enough if nothing else gets done the rest of the week. I give credit to anyone taking the first steps to improve their relationship!

We did initial free survey and liked it so decided to sign up, but the whole next session focuses on a single incident. We don’t have one instance like infidelity or anything. I feel like it isn’t really tailored to other small issues. It is dragging on about an attachment injury. At first I listed... Show more one of the many small examples that happen daily and it’s taking this one tiny thing and turning it in to a huge issue as if it were some trauma when he ignored me once. My issue isn’t one big event it’s lots of little ones. I think this may cause more problems than it will solve once he reads my answers. It will seem like I’m crazy traumatized by one tiny thing he did years ago.

The content is very well done. I am several lessons in and everything is well presented and clear. I like the idea of marriage exercises and making an intentional effort to improve my skills as a partner and improving the strength of my marriage. The exercises encourage thoughtfulness and being min... Show more dful of how your partner experiences your relationship.

The display on the iPhone is fine but they do encourage and require you to write your thoughts which is challenging on the iPhone. The iPad display is vertical only which is a serious limitation as it prevents effect use of the horizontal mode and keyboard. This would dramatically improve use ability.

We are just getting started and I hope to grow with the love of my life. We are for sure struggling soon after I became ill with compromised adrenal glands. Hormone disorder. It has been a stress and our emotional support for both of us tanked. Yet through all our grief we still are fighting to hol... Show more d it together! So I am hoping this will be what we need for our emotional well-being. I kind of wish we had this for young chronic illness spouses. When husband gets sick house functions! When wife gets sick house falls apart in many domestic areas. Boy what I would do to have my husband just see my emotional callings. Yet since I’m caught in pain I know I’m missing his!! Never used to! Again hoping!!

My fiance and I have been going through sessions on here and for the most part it’s great! It’s helped us grow, learn more about each other and our needs, and got us to ask questions we otherwise wouldn’t have asked.

That being said, there are some issues. For one, the postpartum depression ... Show more session is really geared only towards the mother. I went through and skipped the questions to see my fiance’s answers but there should be questions for future fathers to answer as well. Or at least not make me go through all the questions to see my partner’s answers.

There’s some bugs too. Sometimes when trying to post a comment, the “Post” button just isn’t there. So I have to leave Lasting and come back to post my comment. Also, three times today while trying to listen to one of the audio sessions Lasting crashed. So I had to wait until I could read it myself as I was in my car.

Lasting really is helpful and I would recommend it.

Tools, tips, and lessons from leading research for enhancing my relationship, packaged in an easy to consume and navigate format, with an excellent interface, make this my favorite app. I love that you can pair your account with your partner’s to compare notes and perceptions on key concepts. We’ve... Show more both learned so much from this app and have uncovered many wonderful insights to help us overcome conflict and have more fun together. Also, the team behind this app is committed to their product; I had an issue with my account that Becca responded to via email in less than 12 hours and got resolved for me in less than 24 hours—on the weekend. All around, this is a class act, well worth your investment in time and the very reasonable subscription fee.

So I had a few week long period where I was scared for my marriage pretty bad. I just knew before long it was gonna end. So I begged my wife to try this and if this didn't work then we’d just hold on as long as we could but who knew how long that would be. Anyways. We tried the initial questionnair... Show more e thing on the free trial and I knew right then Lasting was gonna help. Literally the day after our first trial, we were already talking our problems out, and ensuring that we were aware of eachother’s emotions and that we worked to keep eachother happy. I honestly think Lasting is as good as any professional, licensed counselor. You just have to really want it to work and both of you have to actually be willing to work for it. I only planned on doing like a 2 sentence review but whatever😂

We’ve just started using Lasting a few months ago. And I feel like it has giving us the space we needed to straighten out some of our misunderstandings and communication. We have love which is the foundation and reason we are not giving up. But life is hard and so is marriage. I’m thankful for thi... Show more s tool because I travel a lot with my business and it was very difficult to find a counselor to meet with when I was home that would be my schedule and this app has been helpful so far. I’m very excited to see and use Lasting as a tool in our relationship as we grow old together. For our marriage sake. For my wife and children’s sake.

Lasting itself was pretty cool, kind of difficult to navigate at first but I could see how it could be very useful. Boyfriend and I determined we needed an actual therapist to get better results so I attempted to cancel but had trouble. The subscription came out of my account so I reached out for ... Show more cancellation and a refund. Taylor responded swiftly issuing a refund (no questions asked) and kindly wished me well!

Once on track, I plan to re-start a subscription…. But only because of Taylors customer service.

We've started, and we've been using it for a couple weeks. This is a very, very, very worthwhile app that would even be a great addition if counseling is already taking place. If not, this is a good place to start. It allows you to find where your weakest links are without feeling like you're trapp... Show more ed. It also is very good at explaining why either party might feel a certain way. I can't say for sure if my marriage will be saved, but there are many variables, and I'm glad this was at least around for me and my husband to try. Will keep using indefinitely.

My husband and I haven’t had an emotional connection in almost 10 years that I can think of. We have gotten comfortable. I’ve been with him for 30 years!! You tend to get too comfortable. I know I’ve expressed my needs and his excuse was always that he didn’t know how to show his emotions. I know t... Show more hat is an excuse. If you love someone, it comes naturally. So this made me second guess his love for me. He has began the first course, only did to stage 4 of the first one. How do I give him a nudge to continue in a positive manner? I don’t want to push him, I want him to want to do this too and see it’s benefits. That is my only problem currently. Just trying to have him try to do Lasting to help us move forward. Hopefully, we can get thru this stage and regain the things we both haven’t felt in a very long time.

We got more out of this in a few weeks than we did from months of marriage counseling. We felt it was important to make sure our marriage had as much support as possible and that we were educated on how to make sure we’ll still be as happy as we are today ten years from now; this isn’t just for cou... Show more ples in trouble, but if your marriage is I’m certain it will be a game changer as long as both people are willing to work on Lasting . We love it and have so much fun on it lol. So many awesome conversations!

I am a research junky & psychology addict. I was very skeptical of downloading something that required a subscription after trial - assuming that, at some point over the years, I would have already read everything some app would have to offer...

Show more l section - I haven’t even gotten to the “good stuff” yet - and my perspective on certain things in my marriage have already sincerely been changed. My mood is different. Within less than a day - the shift is tangible. This is a very well made, entirely personalized, beautifully thoughtful program. I love the mindfulness of it all, and can’t thank the creators of this enough for giving us (the stressed out sometimes resentful parents of a medically complex baby who needs 24/7 care) an alternative to traditional expensive time-consuming therapy. It is truly appreciated.

My Husband and I love each other very much but as we all know life is full of surprises exapecially when it comes to a blended family. A lot of stresses and irritations but we both do our best to make each one of our kids and each other feel loved. But at this time in our marriage we need to take a... Show more time out and focus on us and our marriage and what keeps our family molded and grounded ind God and each other ❤️ so this therapy session is going to be good for us I believe

Although, I am, only, in “Session 2” of “Communication,” It has been beneficial, collectively speaking.

My husband♥️I have been engaging in the “this app App” for 1 yr. We have been participating in other, choice, topics, i.e., Speaking, Listening, Listing things we would like to do, toget... Show more her, that is new, to us, or have not done in a while; Discussing the most pertinent things that hurt us, and how to get past the blame game, etc.

Overall, the “this app App” is “Amazing,” as it is easy to understand, and follow-through; and can be worked-on any time of day, or night🙌🏻❣️

And, we have such demanding schedules, so, working on Lasting , any time, day\night really helps👍🏻!

“Effective Communication” has, always, been our biggest problem. With the “this app App,” it has assisted us to be mindful, and purposeful, in communicating with intentional active listening, and understanding. It has, also, made us want to better understand ea other, on a deeper level, which helps reduce and\or eliminate “back\forth squabbling & finger-pointing.”

Lasting is amazing! When I stumbled upon it I was skeptical but interested. I downloaded it and tried out the free trial. We have learnt so much in just the last couple days and love setting aside time to do the exercises so much that I’m considering an annual subscription!! The positive affects o... Show more n our relationship are very noticeable despite the fact that we were already in good standing. This helps you build a strong foundation with your partner and is even a great tool for those who aren’t struggling in their relationship. I’m very impressed!! I’ve had an Apple account for YEARS and this is the first review I’ve felt inspired to leave. :] Thank you so much for the this app app! We will continue to watch our relationship grow and strengthen thanks to this tool. 💕

Lasting could be very helpful for relationships. I am a firm believer that almost anything can be repaired but ONLY if both parties want to be together and actually put in effort. The one week trial is great but take my advice, keep track of how often your partner suggests starting a session and c... Show more omparing answers. My partner did not do those things and I was the one putting in effort to use Lasting. This is a sign that your partner is not invested and Lasting will NOT work if both of you aren’t trying. We broke up a week after using Lasting because he was not invested and got upset at what I put for my answers. But that’s just a lack on his part, not Lasting .

Whether you are in a rut or just want to keep a healthy relationship going, Lasting is so great! It articulates issues, both personal and relationship- wise in such a perfect manner. Really learned a ton about myself and my partner and why people behave the way they do. It really helped validate a... Show more nd explain a lot of what goes on in our head. No person or internet article has ever been able to articulate in such a way before that’s truly impactful and insightful. It’s all in such a convenient, logical way too! I recommend to nearly everyone! Best thing we found and we developed a routine with my partner and I around it!

I never write reviews. I don’t like wasting my time to do them but I honestly appreciate Lasting. I’m still on the free trial, only on the second day in fact but I just feel like it’s already opened a better dialogue between my partner and I. It’s made a safe place where we’re calming talking and ... Show more comparing how we feel. Learning about how the other feels even. He was really hesitant at first, he hates opening up to others and thought there’d be an active counselor person talking to us but after a few lessons he seems to appreciate it to. I feel like a lot of our issues root in communication and this has been helping so thank you. It’s really affordable and it opens a dialogue, I 100% recommend this.

I didn’t find the free lessons, which were very basic (don’t be mean, talk to each other), very useful or informative. I chose not to purchase the subscription because the free lessons didn’t tell me anything I didn’t already know and I didn’t want to pay for more of the same. But the free lessons ... Show more also seem separate from the rest of Lasting and like a very standardized, generic one size fits all package (despite filling out a very lengthy quiz) so I honestly didn’t know what to expect from the actual app itself and just decided to delete it. I would recommend instead of 5 free lessons giving full free access to the actual app for a few days. I gave 2 stars because Lasting looks good and is well organized with no bugs or technical issues.

We have tried so many things to recover from addiction and infidelity. Lasting is so seamless and approachable. From the very beginning it got us talking in a way we haven’t in a decade. I really appreciate how the prompts let you fill in and then send to your partner. I am a busy mom who wanted t... Show more hings to work but was too busy and financially strained to go to a therapist enough to make a true change. I cannot thank the developers of Lasting enough. You have enabled us to keep our family together.

I love Lasting and have really enjoyed using it with my husband. We are newlyweds and it is helpful in keeping the health of our marriage top of mind without the unneeded formality of a couple's therapist. As newlyweds, we don't have any major problems, but you have to water your garden for it to ... Show more grow or whatever the saying is -- Lasting does just that! I feel confident that it will keep any small issues from becoming larger ones down the road.

If you are seriously dating and looking to get married get this beforehand!! I love this! We are buying the monthly subscription because the first session we had was so great and helped us! I rarely write reviews, but now I pay more attention to my husbands emotional callbacks. Lasting is fabulous... Show more , my husband doesn’t have to be embarrassed about talking silly in front a counselor like he does in the exercises, completely candid and goofy and personal. As opposed to a counselor who wouldn’t understand our jokes. We have weekly sessions.

I might be the one who needs to change the most in our relationship, so this is really hard for me, but Lasting doesn't place blame and is really encouraging. I have to listen to some sessions twice just because the topic is so tender my heart races too loudly for me to focus.

There's alre... Show more ady a positive difference in our relationship since starting to use Lasting , and I have hope that we'll be able to heal and rebuild by following Lasting 's system.

Going from the brink of divorce to hope for the future, so I'm very very thankful for Lasting.

My parents got divorced, so I didn’t quite know what makes up a healthy marriage. With this app, we’re given the tools to connect more deeply with each other in both the “big” and “small” moments.

We did the lasting app and it worked for the week we did it and after that the whole relationship went back to what it was right after we stopped the classes people need an actual councilor to help them when they fall it’s good information but if your marriage is in trouble it won’t help get both si...
