Medito: Meditation & Wellness Reviews

by Troll Football

Hey there,
I’ve been using this app for over a year now and I must say that it was the greatest meditation app I’ve ever used. The simple, seamless design was the selling point for me. But ever since the october UI update, it felt like the developers wanted to ruin the experience for anyone who uses their app offline. I can’t even access Medito now without an internet connection, which is a very annoying hurdle to overcome since connection in my area isn’t the greatest thing, so I have to download my meditation sessions beforehand and listen to them when I wake up in the morning. When I use Medito without an internet connection, it neither saves my streak nor adds the minutes I meditated to my total count. I also have many friends who use this app as well and we all collectively agree that the old UI was miles better than this one. I hope the developers can read this review and fix this issue because I really love this app and the whole team behind it. For now, I’ll be moving to a different app which supports offline use better.

As someone who use to meditate and trying to get back into it it was great. They start off with easier meditation to start off with and get more detailed into it as you go. Soon enough you can do it without the guide. If you your like me and prefer guided meditations and than that is good too. I’m a very stiff and fixated person who plans almost everything in their life. All those things aren’t so good in the long run for the mental health and stress that it causes. Meditation allows me to relax, breathe, look at things with a better view, and overall become a more laid back person.

Medito is a no fuss, dive right in meditation experience. It’s clean and makes it simple to begin a meditation practice. My only gripe is that it has no sync with the Health App for tracking progress. Medito offers a simple feature of a day streak, but I like seeing my experiences with a wide bird’s eye view and this app is currently lacking in that front. Even just beefing up the in app data to show average length of your meditations or how many days you have meditated over the course of a week would be a great addition. I do appreciate this app for its barebones approach to a mediation app in a sea of subscriptions, but I am sure I’m not the only one wishing for a more robust look into our meditation habits.

I have tried at least 10 meditation apps over the years, and I LOVE this one. I love that it’s free, it’s very simple/not bloats in contrast to most meditation apps (looking at you Headspace with your fitness classes and promotion of homophobic personalities), the team is kind and intentional in a way they wouldn’t be if they were a profit-driven business, and the mediations are just good.

I hope they allow for longer mediations in the future. I still keep Headspace around for longer sessions but would give it up immediately for this if they extend the meditation times.

After several weeks of using Medito, I can say that Medito has virtually no flaws. No ads, no pop ups, the design is simple, it has all the features you need for meditation, and more. And it’s free. 100% free. I don’t even know how it has 4.9 average, because Medito is a perfect 5/5.
The courses teach you everything you’ll need to know as a beginner, and you’ll still learn new things even as an advanced meditator. I couldn’t recommend this enough, and there’s so many good things about it that I don’t even know where to start. If you want to start meditating, or you want to make it a habit, GET Medito!!

Regardless of how much you meditate, or if you even meditate at all, Medito is for you. For me, I came for better focus and mindfulness (and I got it!!!). But even though Medito can make you more mindful, it’s so much more. I lay unable to sleep before school the next day, knowing it could end like all the nights just like it: with no sleep. But with the sleep meditation, for the first time in my life, I was out in less then 15m thanks to Medito. When stuff gets out of hand, this app Is that friend that always brings you back to your wits. All this, and it’s free! I wish I started sooner, and I know that you will too.

by Schnellin

Medito has helped me further down my meditation journey than ever before. I recently completed one of the 30 day challenges, something I never felt able to do before. There a numerous guided meditations seemingly for every potential subject. Struggling with anxiety? Need to deal with tough emotions? Want to focus on work life? There’s likely a meditation for you. The best part is that it is a free option - as it should be! Meditation and mindfulness are not something that should be monetized and it feels as though the founders of Medito understand this. Please give Medito a try!

by Ahfownscaufogm

First of all, THANK YOU for creating an entirely free meditation resource — this is how it should be. Mindfulness & meditation is for all and shouldn’t be hidden behind a paywall. Not only is Medito free, but the user experience is fantastic & easy to navigate. I also really appreciate the fact that they link some of the science that they use to support their practices because there is a lot of literature out there in support of mindfulness meditation & I think it’s important to share the credible sources that this team uses to support their approach. Wonderful app! I wish I could give it more than 5 stars!!

by SpadesOfGray

I used many Meditation apps and in my opinion in this is the best one. The calming voices, great background sounds (not including the many options). And the best part it’s free! Nothing more but simple yet calming meditation. Not to mention how to eases you in with raiser sessions and then dives you into more complex ones. And one more feature that I personally use is the sleep part of it. Medito has a section that allows for the user to meditate in a certain way before sleep and it has worked for me. Medito also has great sleep stories that gave me some quality sleep. Truly one of the best apps 10/10 would recommend!

by Goldenpug2143

I am sad to see Medito not being promoted as much as the big apps like calm and headspace. In my opinion its infinitely better because of its cost and helpfulness. They are not trying to siphon hundreds of dollars out of your pockets. They genuinely believe in meditation and make It 100% free not strings attached. I wish Medito gets more attention but I understand the marketing costs are high. The guided sessions are top tier but for their price? It feels like pirating. But its not. I recommend Medito 100% At its best it will change your life. At its worst you will still have a calmer and better day.

by Grason W.

no payment, no account, no tracking and logging, no advertisements or sharing on social media pop ups. it’s the best and it’s everything that everything else should be. meditation should be free out of all of the things in the world. do you know how much profit Calm and Headspace make? insane amounts. mindfulness has helped me in so many ways. i sleep better, i eat better, i am much more aware of my thoughts and actions. i am less judgmental to myself and others. i am more compassionate. do not be afraid that you will “do meditation wrong”, as that is not the point. you cannot do it wrong if you are trying to do it. if you are trying then you are doing it perfectly. i greatly encourage you to try Medito over any other meditation app, as it guides the lines of morality in our for profit world. thank you, this app, and i will try to convince everyone i know to get Medito. i’ve already got my mom to download it and do meditation again after years of being anxious about it. truly, i hope this app lasts forever, and i hope everyone who can donate does.

by Soy Milq

Thank you this app for creating a comprehensive meditation resource that is actually free!
It’s a pretty simple app and that’s a good thing. Extra bells and whistles aren’t as important as the fact that this is open source. And “simple” does not mean lacking! Medito has more guided meditations and variations than I’ve seen anywhere else, and even on top of that you have different voices to pick from. They have a meditation for just about everything.
Medito is incredibly thoughtful and I’m so thankful it exists~ Mediation should be accessible for everyone

by Dayday2nana

Got Medito a few days ago and using it at least twice a day so far. Love how simple it is as it really brings down the barrier to entry for meditation. For me, it’s hard to start meditating. The whole reason why I wanted to try meditation was to reduce anxiety and stress. Other apps made it hard for me to begin, the graphics and options are distracting, and I was always worried I would do it wrong or run into a paywall right when I was getting the hang of it. Medito has reduced all those stressors and really cleared the way for me to start meditating as a habit/routine.

by Kaesea333333

My doctor suggested this app as part of my mental health wellness plan. I was having trouble sleeping due to my anxiety. I started using the Sleep pack and find Will’s voice to be extremely calming. It has helped with my ability to fall asleep tremendously and anytime I am having trouble falling asleep I turn to this app. I have also started venturing into the other packs and have used the SOS pack now and then. I have nothing but good things to say. And the fact that it is free is incredible. Not everyone can afford to pay for things like this (including me) and it’s so nice to know people actually care and aren’t just trying to make as much money as they can. Well done, this app team, and THANK YOU!

by Important Gane Critic

I never write reviews but Medito deserves it. First of all it's completely free with no ads. That in itself says a ton about the intentions of the developers. It's simple, it's effective and it makes meditating incredibly easy. This is a genuine service to humanity and I am extremely grateful that there are still some good souls left on this earth helping other people through apps like this without involving money.

Medito changed my life and has got me into the habit of meditating every morning. It put me back on track and has made me a happier, healthier, and more present human being. Meditating will change your life.

by Meg31707

I stumbled across Medito when I was looking for a meditation app. I have been really stressed lately and we have been studying mental health and meditation in school, so I really wanted to see if meditation could actually help me. The problem was, literally every single other app either cost money to initially buy Medito , or it was free and then had a subscription. I was scrolling through a Reddit chain that was about meditation apps, and I downloaded and tried out about 10 different apps, all of which had a subscription to unlock the whole app. When I read the description for Medito, I was skeptical to say the least. I was shocked when I opened Medito and saw that everything was available to me. This is the perfect meditation app, with everything you need for things such as stress, anxiety, pandemic stress, sleep, and even a section for beginners. I have only used these meditations for a few days, but they are amazing, I highly recommend Medito to everyone.

by HesLeGiT_tK

I’ve always been someone who wanted to get into meditation, but I’ve always struggled with staying consistent with my meditation practice, until I started looking for apps that could potentially help me meditate and keep a consistent meditation routine. I have tried calm but I was not trying to pay a subscription fee just to fix my mental health, then I encountered this wonderful app. Sorry my English isn’t the best, but I want to truly appreciate how much work and effort the developers put into Medito, i wish I could thank them in person just because Medito has helped me so much. Once again, Thank you so much this app developers for making this wonderful app, i couldn’t have done this without you all. <3 :)

by MontanaK.

I love Medito so much. It has a lot of amazing features, and it definitely helps me to improve my mindfulness and mental clarity. It actually has a ton of content, and as someone who regularly struggles with insomnia so bad that even taking melatonin doesn’t usually put me to sleep, the sleep-music and the meditation for sleep are both extremely beneficial. I would recommend Medito to anyone and everyone, honestly.

My only complaint could be that every once in awhile, it runs a little slow, or it won’t be able to load one of the features, but that is very rare and only seems to happen if there’s a lot of traffic to Medito . They regularly work on making sure Medito runs smoothly, and they do a really great job. Considering how much awesome stuff is available on Medito for free, I don’t even consider this an issue at all.

this app is worth downloading!

by Kyoodled

I needed to learn to meditate. After a bout with serotonin syndrome, I needed to find a way to address my anxiety and situational depression without medication. I found out about this app, and what a gift. When I have some extra money, I’m definitely going to donate. They’ve had a few bugs because their servers were overloaded, but I cannot fault them for that. I started this from very little history of meditation. The program leads you through and holds your hand every step of the way. This isn’t some esoteric, magic kind of meditation. That had always turned me off. This is logical and so helpful. Thank you.

by Concerned In USA

this app is paving the way for digital mental health care access. Even though I’m new to meditation (or rather, new to fully committing to building a daily habit of it), I am 100% on board with their mission to provide this resource for free with no strings attached. Medito is bare-bones in the best possible way, the step-by-step introduction system is effective, and your sessions won’t be cut short because you don’t have a premium subscription. To all the volunteers who built and maintain this platform: THANK YOU! Your dedication and commitment to filling a massive gap in the market without profit as a motivator might just be more inspiring than the meditations themselves. You actually care about the people using this app— not what people can afford to spend on their basic wellness necessities. Keep up the great work.

by User52395

I hate other apps like Headspace because every feature is behind a paywall and it doesn’t seem genuine. Real life meditation centers do not harass you for money but rather ask for a donation of your choosing. this app is similar. It feels genuine and unassuming. It doesn’t feel like a company trying to make a buck by commercializing meditation. I wish I had found Medito sooner, it isn’t featured on any of the main pages for health and lifestyle and that is because Apple can’t profit from Medito. As soon as I began using it I actually WANTED to make a donation because it is so amazing and was created by volunteers. The UI is calming in itself and does not have pop-up ads or anything like the other paid apps that have made me apprehensive towards meditation in the past. Thank you for making this app!

by Juan Daniel Mirt

I’ve listened to over 1000 minutes of meditations and I can say I really feel more at peace in the present moment then ever before. Medito has been the start of a self improvement journey for me. For anyone reading this, don’t stop at just meditation. Go for a holistic change in your habits, identity, and world view. Gratitude journal, read books that Explore ideas of self improvement, philosophy, religion, mental health, letting go, success without selfish desire, finding a meaning, and every other topic which can help you live a more fulfilled life. Try your best to Exercise, explore your purpose, set goals, live good values, live in harmony with nature, serve others, and live with enough love that you can give it to others

by Chicken Shocked Cherry

i love Medito so much! i’ve tried a ton of other ones and it gets really frustrating trying to find ones that you don’t have to pay after one meditation. this app is COMPLETELY FREE! (and no ads) however, you are welcome to donate to help Medito keep running. it offers a user friendly calm interface, where u can choose the type of meditation you’re looking for, including a this app course! (which includes A LOT of stuff). i would highly recommend Medito to anyone from beginners to experts considering how truly user friendly it is. you really can tell that the developers actually care about spreading mindfulness versus just trying to take your money:)

by Gorloop7

I love everything about Medito. My favorite YouTuber Hamza recommended Medito in a video and I’m glad I gave it a try. I had tried other apps before but it was only a matter of time until they asked for money. NOT this app. They have a meaningful purpose in mind. They want to help people get into meditation and improve their lives for free. 100% free. They have courses and guides to help you get started on this incredible habit to build. Meditation will improve every area of your life and there is no better app to use than this app.

by Jack Gruber I

this app does such a service to the world by providing a service that can do such good for our lives - and does it for free. I think this is a more genuine approach to creating meditation content, since it seems to me that meditation descents from religious activity and is also a cultural heritage. I believe that in their best form they shouldn’t be hidden behind a paywall. After all, these are practices that much of the world has passed on from generation to generation and from continent to continent. Why should the west do it any differently? this app supports that, and for that we should support them! Great service!

by Jayson The Gayson

I found Medito through a YouTuber named Hamza, and since then it has transformed my life. This is the best meditation app out of many I have tried including all the more popular ones. It’s design is so simple and clean and the various meditations available have helped me in so many situations. The people they have voice guiding the meditations all have very nice and calming voices. I especially resonate with the mindfulness and compassion body scans.

After 350+ sessions over the past 2 years I can say with certainty I have gained a greater sense of mindfulness, focus, and kindness towards myself and others in my life. this app has helped me transform myself from the degenerate gamer that I was to a healthy human being.

I’ve always had this strange desire to be a monk in the mountains and become “self actualized” but obviously that’s outlandish for a regular person but just using Medito for 10-20 min a day really makes me feel like some sort of stoic monk lol.

Massive gratitude to anyone at the this app Foundation reading this <3

by Rucha 123

I have been wanting to find a meditation app for so long, but they all seemed to be behind a paywall. Then I read a recommendation for this app on Reddit, and it’s been so helpful to me since. It has courses helping you to learn and feel more comfortable with meditation, sleep music and meditations, and meditations specifically geared toward different feelings like stress and anxiety. And, meditations can be downloaded so you can have them offline! The only issue I see is that it does sometimes crash, but it happens rarely and comes back on quickly. Highly recommend.

by Kjode1

I am new to meditation and found Medito somewhat accidentally. It has everyFeature you could look for in a guided meditation app. Similar to the previous comment, I actually want to make a donation to the company to help support the great work that they are doing. The donation link is actually not working on my phone. If this could be fixed I would be happy to make a donation so that others can benefit as much as I have.

Thank you for putting together such a low-key, free and well done application

by I Want Allies

I like the beginning and how they state how mediating can help you in many ways, and how meditating impacts your life and honestly it’s great all you really need is 10 or 15 minutes in the morning and 10-15 minutes at night and the results can be amazing and at first you might not get results but over a long period of time you can receive many benifits, and mindfulness is something you get over a long period of time.

Thank you so much and please just at least try this app to

by Badfoot27

Medito is so simple yet has so much to offer. Definitely one of the best meditation app I have found and especially for free. You can’t go wrong with Medito, it tracks your streaks and how many minutes you’ve been been mindful, it’s something I look forward to every night before bed. I use it in the day hit or miss but always guaranteed I will be using this awesome app at night. I have nothing negative to say about Medito or anything I would change. this app is a game changer.

by Baconcat007

Quite possibly one of the greatest applications I have ever downloaded to an electronic device in my life. I enjoy the way it is structured and friendly to all levels of meditation as well as current events or modern issues. I would give 10 stars if I could. Never in my life would I have imagined something so amazing would come free. Then again, I suppose the best things in life ARE free. Thanks again, I love Medito. I’ll have to donate when I can.

by Poet-poet-ab94

I don’t usually write reviews, but there are a few apps that come along that are need-to-haves. This is one of them. It is genuinely 100% completely free with 0 in-app purchases. There are tons of guided meditations and information about meditation. Yes, Medito is not perfect, but for being put together completely by volunteers, it is pretty darn great. And because it is put together by volunteers and is free, you know they just genuinely want to help people, which Medito undoubtedly has helped me and will help many people. All I want to say is If you are even somewhat interested in meditation, this is Medito to use.

by Magret1234

In a pool full of ads and upgrade now. I’m so happy I found this app from a reddit thread. I rarely give reviews on apps but this one, I cannot miss. I like their tag line “built for people not for profit”. Which is true, sometimes just a simple meditation in other apps, you gotta pay, adding a timer? you gotta pay. I’m so happy I found this app, it’s the best one out there and it helped me to be mindful, I’m on my 5th day streak now and I can see a difference in my mood. To the makers of Medito, thank you so much. We need more souls like you

by Clementine & Rollie

I have never written a review for any app- that’s how awesome Medito is. I have been wanting to get back into meditation after many many years to help manage daily stress and anxiety. I was looking for an app that was free in case I hated it. Medito has been wonderful. Love the intro/beginner sessions that help you learn to get into the best space. So much content that is so well sorted. Easy to use, and makes you want to use it often- which is arguably the hardest part of a skill like meditation, doing it enough. Highly recommend.

by 10hibiscus

The simplicity of Medito is just the main draw to Medito. Other apps have paywalls and make meditation seem like a chore that you need to do while Medito just makes the act of meditation simple to do with no gimmicks.

On top of that it’s crazy to hear that Medito is actually fully free and made by volunteers who clearly care about the practice of meditation. Thank you all for your work on making such a beautiful app for meditation!

by SharkCrusher108

I am so grateful that I was shown Medito through self improvement YouTuber Hamza. With him and Medito I have been able to improve my mental, physical, and social health tenfold compared to just a year ago. Thank you to all of the member of the this app team who have provided us with this blessing free of charge! It really means a lot during this era of constant bombardment with news and social media that you have created a place to calm oneself down and bring about a sense of peace.

by R_Burn

I’ve been an on-and-off meditator for about 20 years, and in the smartphone age have tried a few other apps to compliment my sitting practice. This one is truly amazing. There is loads of focused content, guided meditations, talks, written explanations, and helpful links for those new to the practice. The challenges for newcomers are an excellent way to begin a lifelong habit. You can tell that the creators care quite a bit about your individual journey into sitting. Highly recommended!

by Nvlobos

Just what I’ve been looking for in a meditation app. It is kind of crazy to think we “need” an app to meditate but the guidance does help and the “getting started” tile is very informative. I’ve been meditating fully for about 2 years all app based, but this one thus far is able to guide me so simply.

My main reason for the review is because I’ve tried the donation buttons and haven’t had success with them. Was hoping to show some love but am unable to. Help me! 😁

by Misoan07

Medito is absolutely wonderful! There are so many meditation apps that force you to purchase subscriptions to access their amenities, but absolutely everything on Medito has been free since I’ve had it, and they stay true to that, I get little to no adds and the meditation sessions are amazing! Thank you so much for making this available for everyone this app. Medito needs so much more credit! I am happy and satisfied. Headspace could never.

by Evan’s Iphone 8

I love how Medito is completely free and nothing even has to be paid for. There are other meditation apps like headspace and calm where you have to pay to get the full thing, but you get everything without a subscription on this app. There’s regular meditation, meditation for sleep, meditation for stress or other negative feelings, and even mindfulness music. They also have courses you can follow which makes it very easy to use and learn how to meditate. Completely deserves a five star rating and I hope that anyone who comes across Medito gives it a try.
