Guru: Stories & Meditation Reviews

IT WONT EVEN LET ME get in I have to pay and IT SAID It WAS FREE so I was like uhhh let me skip but then it would not let me and I HATE THIS stupid app I hate this stupid app so much it literally won’t even let me do anything without paying a little you have to pay to see the picture or the pay thing during a magic spell I hate it so much and I’m never downloading again eww don’t even let me get close to it why do I have to pay for everything like a cheese let me do Guru I just wanted to listen to a story and not a magic spell I hate Guru like a literally hate it hate it hate it hate it hate it hate it hate it never download ever it’s the worst game in the world sorry if I’m being dramatic but the ad it looks so fun I couldn’t stop so I kept trying but it kept axing you have to pay to continue do you have to pay to continue I was so mad so I hate it HATE IT

So i got an ad for Guru and it seemed pretty interesting, but me being me i just skipped the ad. The second time the ad popped up i was like, “Okay, Guru seems good and the stories seem compelling, i should probably download this since i have trouble sleeping at night.” And so i did. When i first opened Guru i was excited, i picked thriller and the story was good. Then a picture popped up with the story and i tapped it, it said in order to see the picture you need to get a subscription. I brushed it off because i didn’t really need pictures to move on with the stories. So i keep reading the story and suddenly Guru wants me to pay to keep reading the story. I tried to find a way to exit out of the screen but i couldn’t. I can’t say i’m not disappointed.

Ok the story was soooo good! I wanted to hear the rest of it! (This of course was an ad on utube ) So I got Guru ! So I listened to the next story on Guru it was the same one as the add! I waited for it to get too the part I was at but it just stopped! You need subscription to hear the rest! So if you download Guru for the stories you basically download the adds! The magic spells are ridiculous!! They don’t work obviously magic isn’t real! (Sorry Harry Potter) But this could actually humiliate someone saying they could do magic or make some believe that magic is real! My advice for you app creators is make people get to decide what story to do let them finish the story too. You can have some storys locked (the really good ones) that are only for subscription owners!

TL;DR: App has potential, but when you want to listen to a story, you can’t finish it because it keeps shoving the fact that you gotta get a subscription, to the point where you can’t finish a single story without one.
It’s so annoying, because the stories really seem nice, I was reading one and there were few pictures you could click on, but to do it you need a subscription. Fine, but then to even finish the story, guess what, YOU NEED A SUBSCRIPTION. Like, I get it, you can’t exactly put ads on an app that’s supposed to help you sleep, because then you get dragged for that, but you should at least be able to finish a few stories to see if you like them before getting a subscription. Ugh.

So I download Guru because the ad look like it was going to be good but the first thing I did was check the reviews so I know Guru is good there was good reviews and bad reviews but I still downloaded Guru and when I went to Guru it looked great and I went to the story because the ad had a pretty good story and I tapped thriller and the story was good but it showed a picture and it said press it and I did and when I did it said you need buy this thing to see the picture and that 5 stars went to a 4 stars but I was like who care I still got the story and then the story stopped and you to buy this thing I got so mad and I deleted Guru why the story was so good but you need to buy this thing 🤧😪😭

Ok so I got Guru to actually use and see some story’s the add made it look nice and I wanted to continue it so I pressed story and started listening then a picture came and said press to see I pressed and it said I needed to buy a subscription I didn’t cause I was meh it’s only a picture so I kept on watching the story and then it just stops cause it needs you to buy a subscription to continue that really made me mad like why pay most of the people who get this are 10-13 year olds sometimes even 9 we don’t have that much money or sometimes any money for that matter so we can’t pay for the subscription you really gotta think about who’s going to get Guru and who is going to actually buy the subscription so that’s why I think this is just a rip off🤬🤬

I found Guru in a lot of my adds and since I have trouble sleeping at night I thought that this would be good! I downloaded it and I chose a thriller. I was half to the story when a pic showed up for me to press the pic said I need to pay for this and subscribe. I was a bit bummed out from this cause without the photo the story didn’t make a lot of sense. But again in order for me to keep reading the story it saids I need to subscribe. I didn’t want to so I tried to leave the page. It didn’t let me leave and when I was press my home button to leave out of Guru . For 15 mins it went in like this so at the end this gave me a virus. Please DONT download Guru!!! It’s a waste of your time!

I promise I’m not complaining. The first story I picked a scary one and I get the one about Kate, James and Trevor. In the picture we’re Trevor threw the rock through the window it was clearly light out and day time the. Like 10 seconds later she says “ I’m not going to run out into the woods at night!” Just thought you might want to know that if you didn’t already

Great app so far but I’m worried now about the 7 day free trial because I read a review saying they couldn’t finish the story without paying for it.😐

First off, I haven’t wrote a review on an app in a while but this is app is way too annoying so I felt like I had to, Okay so, I downloaded Guru , it was pretty good until the when it said that I had to pay a subscription, and the story was really interesting but why would the developers do this it’s really annoying and the meditation section is crap, I wish that we can use all the parts of Guru except for being able to access exclusive stories that are not released yet to the public, which would make Guru 10 times more better and getting to pick which story to make it more complex, I wish I could rate Guru half a Star to be honest, DEVELOPERS FIX YOUR APP AND STOP SCAMMING PEOPLE!!!!😡😡😡

First off this is just a whole entire scam and not to mention that kids are the ones that HAVE THE MOST TROUBLE SLEEPING and since they don’t have money it really doesn’t help and not enough sleep is a serious problem it’s not a joke,Sleep is a thing you’re body needs to have energy to even move yeah sure we will “fall asleep” by story’s when it’s not even free but ok for everyone that pays it’s still a scam 99% of the time I bet you won’t fall asleep here’s how it’s a scam the scam part is when you pay and can read the full story’s and see pictures there’s a 1% chance you’ll fall asleep by being on your phone phones are what keep you awake.

I love the bedtime meditation! I’ve tried a few other sleep apps that haven’t really worked for me because there are a lot of confusing options. Guru is great because it creates a personalized meditation for you based on your sleeping habits and it’s more like a program that you can follow to learn how to sleep better. I have a lot of anxiety at night that keeps me awake. This really helps me wind down at the end of the day. Thanks for making!

Guru won’t even let me watch the story I want to watch and that’s not even FAIR. It says we have to pay 4.99$ a week and I don’t want to pay. I wish that every single game that’s includes money that u need to pay would just be free! And u would not need to pay. I just wish Guru could be FREE! Like literally it’s not that fair that we need to pay money for just an app that could make u sleep and just relaxed.

I think it’s really nice! The story are really nice and I enjoy it a lot! 😁, the meditation helps a lot and helps me relax and go to my calm and happy place. I just got Guru and so far it’s great. But there is one thing that is really annoying, it’s the fact that I need to subscription to it and if I subscription it cost money, When I saw Guru it said it was free but it cost money just for me to finish a story. Like it’s annoying that I am at a good part of the story and then the subscription thing pops up and I get the you can’t but adds but it said that it was free.

I notice that it says subscribe to finish story and I’m not that type of person to pay 4.99 a week and I really love Guru the story’s are really fun to listen to but I don’t really think that it should have a price Thank you.

This is a good app and I saw the ads everywhere. I was so excited to download Guru. I opened up Guru and chose a thriller story. When I did I saw a picture and it told me to click to see it. When I clicked it, it said I had to pay to see the picture. I brushed it off and kept reading, then the story stopped and said I had to PAY to finish the story. I thought it was annoying so I decided to delete it. All I have to say is, it is annoying but if you pay then it would be a good app.

I was hoping that this was a good, free app that I could use to fall asleep. I saw the ads, I saw it was free, and I thought, “Hmmm, maybe this is a good one.” It is not. I opened Guru , chose a scary story, answered his riddle, and then he said, “You’re invited to the special thing,” (more or less) and took me to the buy subscription screen. There’s no X, no way to get out of it, nothing. I don’t have money to spend on a FREE APP. Really, I was hoping I could use it without the subscription, but the developers let me down. I just hope they can make the subscription OPTIONAL, for others like me.

When I saw the first ad I was like, cool. I didn’t download it because I usually skip ads like those, but for the second or third time, I gave it a go and downloaded it. It was cool at first, but then it asked me to subscribe or do a free trial in order to even see the story. I could do an in app purchase, so I went to App Store to get a free trial to check it out. I couldn’t find the purchase place, so I went back to Guru and tried to do something to get out of the screen that wanted me to subscribe, but nothing was working. I didn’t even get to see the stories.

I saw an ad for it like most people do and I kept seeing them so I finally downloaded Guru when I fist opened it I thought it would be good until the first 2-5 of having it it asks you to pay it’s kinda dumb so unless your willing to pay to read stories have some sleep sounds and sleep notifications don’t get it I’m sure there is another app like this so I would look for a different one instead I was hopeful that it would be a really great app but tbh I’m just disappointed with it it seems a lot better on the ads

I downloaded Guru and i was like “omg finally something that will help me fall asleep” but when i started to listen the stories it would just like lag the whole time plus when i got to the middle of the story another page came and said i had to pay so i thought it was just a bug and stuff. So i downloaded it again and it was still the same like if you want people to like your app WHY DO YOU MAKE OTHERS PAY FOR IT JUST OUT IT FOR FREE OR IF YOU WANT PEOPLE TO PAY THEN DONT TELL THEM TO PAY 8 DOLLARS FOR A WEEK. i really wish i could give you a half a star because Guru is the worst

Great game and concept but I don not like that you need to pay it seems like your paying 5 dollars a week for 6 minute story even if it’s just 5 dollars I still think it should be free for other kids that want it and maybe their parents won’t buy it for them but everybody seems to like it but I might as well delete it now- Great job on your game and I wish you continue to get 5 star!!

Really like that Guru creates a personalized meditation for you. It actually helped me fall asleep. I also like that there aren’t a ton of confusing options. Really happy I found this!

Love that it’s personalized. I also like that it’s focused instead of having too many options or meditations to choose from. First night fell asleep before it ended. So far so good!

I like the this app’s voice. It makes me feel calm and peaceful and puts me to sleep. Good music too. I’ll definitely use it again.

I used to lay awake for hours, but Sleep this app helped me fall asleep in 5 minutes. Using this every night, 100% worth it. If you have any sleep problems - DOWNLOAD Guru NOW!

Its good for relaxing your head and body after going to work that will helps me to relax it even theres no much work but it will relax me thou

I tried it 1 week hoping that it would work but no it didn’t. When you see some app with 6 rated and all 5 star then look and sees it tracks all your data it is a scam don’t buy unless you like being spied on
