Daylight - Worry Less Reviews

by KevinJanetJolie

Unfortunately, Daylight has added to my stress as it does not function properly. The idea of the program sounds very promising and exciting, so you could imagine my disappointment and frustration upon learning that I have to close and reopen Daylight several times during each session in order for it to function properly. It seams it takes an average of three close/reopen’s to get it to work, each time having to listen to the same beginning portion until it gets to the point where it freezes.
The reason it’s so irritating is because I had such high hopes for stress and anxiety reduction after researching this program, but the mal functionality of Daylight creates a level of frustration that repels me from its use, rendering it useless. So returns the feelings of hopelessness regarding anxiety and stress management.
Thank you for reading.

Works on my son’s 11 but not on my wife’s Xs or my 13 Pro Max, all with latest iOS. When I tap Sign In in the orange screen a progress square/circle briefly displays and then the screen is all white with an X in upper right corner. Tapping anywhere makes no difference. Taping the X briefly shows the login screen. I have deleted Daylight and re-installed but the issue remains. I tried over wifi and cellular.

This is a nice service. Unfortunately Daylight is unusable. Nothing will load, then they logged me out. Now the sign in screen won’t even load. Have tried on multiple devices with no luck. It’s unfortunate to start people on this path then pull the rug out from under them.

Apple remove Daylight it’s broken from the getgo. I saw the developers response to delete and download it again, it doesn’t work! Customer service email came back undeliverable too. An app that is supposed to help with anxiety only increases it.

It worked for about two days absolutely loved Daylight then the login page wouldn’t load or when trying to click the next program it would run.. definitely a shame cause it has potential

Like other users I tried and failed to login initially. I switched to using cellular as they recommended and somehow that worked. It is not logical though as my connection is better via Wi-Fi. They need to work on making Daylight more stable where there isn’t a workaround just to login. Notice how no other modern app requires this type of workaround…Upon logging in, I was able to click on a card and immediately her audio (no head’s up - thanks for waking my baby). The video finished and the screen seem to froze again, but really it’s just another one of their bugs dealing with focus issues.

Additionally no update in 4 months (at time of writing) shows that Daylight is no longer supported or a priority.

Daylight that is supposed to help with anxiety, gave me anxiety as I tried to just get it downloaded and signed in. Was recommended by my husband’s work. I was excited to try. Never got passed the white screen that everyone is talking about. When the bugs are fixed, I’d be happy to try again.

App barely works, never lets you continue and all you can do is click the black x in the corner and start all over. Can’t believe they won’t just put a next or continue button. Tried multiple times and app failed every time. Internet and cellular signal are fine, just in case they ask.

I got Daylight through my company and it was working great! I really enjoyed it and was learning new techniques but now it’s too glitchy to use. I am trying to do the next lesson and it will ask me a question but the screen with the answered never pops up. I restarted it but get the same thing. At this point I can no longer progress. It’s such a shame. I really hope they fix it.

I received access to Daylight for work. It is very glitchy cannot log in most of the time it’s a blank screen and closes unexpectedly. I also never received credit for doing the courses. A lot of work needs to be done on Daylight.

Daylight doesn’t load. Installed to try it out as it was recommended with a work insurance mental health support. Daylight causes more anxiety just from it not loading or working. I’ll send feedback to my company about the issues of Daylight and that it should not be a recommendation for anyone at all. There are other apps that work properly with activities that are miles above the this app app.

I signed up through a work benefit program and afterward was prompted to download Daylight , so I did. Daylight keeps telling me incorrect email or password, which is untrue, but even when I hit ‘forgot password’ I never get the email to fix it!!! Incredibly frustrating and Daylight should probably just be removed since the company clearly does not care to fix any of the issues people are having with it.

by Frj322

I agree with the other reviewers. Just downloaded for the first time. A fresh install. Open app, white screen with an “x”. Click the “x” to close and just a second of the login screen and then back to the opening page. Daylight is impossible to use. I was excited to try it but it can’t be used. PLEASE FIX THIS! The problem is your app NOT US!
I refuse to believe it’s something I’m doing as the issue is the same on 2 separate iPhones AND 2 separate iPads.

Daylight is recommended by my employer. I have downloaded it 3 times and it does not work properly. It moves to an activity and then freezes. It seems like the information could be helpful but I will never know.

by Elissa65

The little cards do not work. Once i got to the cat one, the voice asks me a question, but then nothing shows up on my screen. Once I hit the X to get out of the card, it shows me a glimpse of what I should be seeing to answer the question. It does the same thing on the blue one after the cat with the check-in so I can’t move forward. I have logged out and back in, deleted and reinstalled Daylight . I even deleted a waited a couple weeks and came back and it’s still the same issues.

The art style requires very little skill and is bereft of any individualism. It's the perfect corporate blandness that is inoffensive in every way except it enrages me that stick figures are used by adults presumably with college degrees in graphic design. Maybe they didn't hire any artists and didit themselves in a weekend. How am I supposed to destress watching this trash? I get more out of watching a movie than I would ever get out of this corporate product.

Separately Daylight itself is very slow, and it pops error codes when you close your screen or switch apps.

I’m supposed to be using this as a part of my wellness benefit but I spend more time trying to get it to work than the actual sessions. Coincidentally was going through a stress relief program in Daylight - came out more stressed than I started with due to frustrations with app.

by Aligator Pro

I really like the idea of Daylight and the exercise it suggested. However Daylight is very slow to load and keeps giving me the same exercise! I’ve gone through the set up “get to know” you survey twice now then Daylight freezes.

by Grillian

Unfortunately only 2 stars for the idea. App navigation and feel is not good. Randomly hangs despite fast wireless. Maybe take Daylight offline before sending away more early users. Or release an updated version, but please do proper testing.

by Angel285

The interactive questions to focus on my specific needs are helpful. I also like the detailed info on what to do and when to do it. But like others, the response time is slow. I had no trouble installing Daylight at all.
Overall, the techniques, interactive feedback, and results allow me to get what I need with the slow response. It is currently tolerable based on my results.

by Musicplz

There are only 2 techniques in Daylight and they will get offered to you over and over as though they are new. Not the practice version, no, completely from scratch as though you have never heard of them before. This honestly makes me more anxious because it feels as though it’s broken. Deleting.

by Oraiste

A 20 minute exercise didn’t save and I can’t skip to where I was. I tried redoing it 3 times. Frustrating and ready to give up on Daylight .

by Jendnxjdisn

So I thought it was going to be somewhat hokey - but when I gave myself permission to really embrace the techniques, I was very surprised / happy to find I actually was less tense.

Daylight is so helpful. I love the graphics and the voice. It’s like having a therapist in my pocket (and I am a therapist!) Everyone should use this.
