MindGarden: Mindful Meditation Reviews

by SamP216

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED MindGarden!! I used it every day and night and it helped me and taught me ALOT!! After a while when the people are supposed to be talking… they’re not. You just hear the sound. The tree don’t grow and the timer doesn’t count down. Also sometimes MindGarden just force close. When I do hear the voice on about only one or two meditations it has a buzzing nose in the back that wasn’t there before. If this is something that can be fixed I would DEFINITELY Appreciate it because I LOVED MindGarden!!

I really love MindGarden, it’s well thought out and is perfect for people who like games, because it makes meditation appealing and genuinely fun to do. Meditation has become a very important piece to improving my health and well-being.

When I stumbled upon a bug (the garden, home, search, and shop buttons don’t work), I came to leave a review to hopefully get the developers to fix it. Come to find that MindGarden hasn’t been updated in 3months. It saddens me that the developers aren’t watering their really great app more. I hope y’all continue to improve. I’ll continue to use MindGarden almost everyday (working up to everyday) ❤️

I have been using this everyday since I got it and it’s amazing and works very well. There is one glitch tho, whenever I try to press confirm when I’m trying to buy a flower, it does nothing and won’t let me buy it. If you guys can some how fix it that would be awesome. It could be just a me problem but if there’s anything u can do on ur end please do. Again all around great app.

I love MindGarden. I have always wanted to get into meditation but found it really hard to remember to do it and to actually be motivated. MindGarden is set up in a way where it reminds you to meditate each day, it keeps you motivated, and it is so easy to find a meditation that you want to do. You don’t have to scroll through a million of them until you get to one that looks good!

I also love that all of the meditations are not too long. There are some super short ones as well as some longer ones, but they are all the perfect lengths for what I want. I’m not one of the people that wants to sit and meditate for an hour every day. I just don’t have that time.

Anyway, I love MindGarden and how easy to use it is and how motivational it is. Plus, it is freaking adorable!

I’ve used a variety of meditation apps but this one is definitely my most used. I love the quality of meditations, the variety in length and topics (grief, loneliness, anger, etc.), and how it combines a mood tracker and gratitude journal all in one. It’s also just a lot of fun! I enjoy collecting my daily bonus, watching my garden grow, and being able to select different plants. MindGarden is great for all ages and for new and experienced meditators alike. I am grateful to the creators of MindGarden as it is helping me cultivate a sense of peace and mindfulness. Thank you!!

I’ve tried a few mediation apps that are okay and some even pretty good but this one is the best yet! It’s a great balance between personal growth and spirituality. The mediations are so nice and calm with a few ranges of different types of sessions and lengths. I really feel you can accomplish a lot in terms of your own growth with with they offer here. I love the visual aspect of growing your garden as well. It’s great positive psychology to keep motivated and honestly to be proud of yourself for being consistent. I feel a lot more likely to stick with MindGarden long term no doubt!

by Kolmaro

I have always had the traditional apps about meditation that I haven’t been able to stick with but I enjoy the daily practices and also the mood check ins to see if there is a way to pick yourself up. I also love the fact that gratitude is integrated into MindGarden as well making you focus on something good in your life at the moment which is powerful if you feel like the world is falling apart around you. Will definitely continue my journey!

by KTmama25

I love this app! I am fairly new to meditation and MindGarden has helped me to get started. I love all the visual ways to track progress and moods. There are so many sessions ranging in duration so whether you have 2 minutes or a much longer period of time to dedicate you can find the perfect session. I also like how MindGarden can recommend sessions based on your current mood. MindGarden makes meditation fun and it makes getting the benefits of meditation easy!

by Tealchocobo

I love MindGarden and have been using it nightly before going to bed. I like that they’re constantly putting out new meditations and updates. The different plants in my garden are awesome and I like that planting a real tree is an option!

My only complaint is my cherry blossoms show up on my calendar as daisies even though I know I picked the cherry blossoms. I think it might be a bug from a recent update because they originally did show up correctly.

by Djdjdiscnc

For awhile I was looking around for a meditation app to use but the other ones I’ve used never really stuck with me as well as this one has! I absolutely love MindGarden and the guided meditations. They really help keep your focus on breathing. It used to be quite buggy but all of that has been addressed awhile back and don’t really have any complaints. It’s helped me dial in my mental health and the changes that come with a better mental state is great!

by Meatloafmouse

I love MindGarden. I was looking to get into meditation and there’s a lot of apps to choose from. I picked this one because I love plants and the idea of growing virtual plants while you meditate was appealing to me. I’m a premium user, and the times I’ve had issues with MindGarden it has been fixed! They’re very open to feedback. I use MindGarden everyday for my morning meditation and sometimes at night as well. Thanks for a great experience!

I’ve tried many meditation apps in the last and none have stuck with me. MindGarden is amazing! I love watching my garden grow and the guided meditations are great for beginners and I love feeling like i’m getting better everyday. There are so many options of different types of meditations and I can’t wait to try them all! I’d recommend MindGarden to anyone trying to get into guided mediation and breathing!

by Erinaceous1995

I love MindGarden! It’s easy to use, engaging, and cute! I also love how responsive the developers are. They have a website where you can suggest different meditations and features, and they show you when a suggestion has been implemented! They also respond super kindly to issues and questions. It’s clear they want to make a superb app, and they’re doing an awesome job :)

by Hsidnk

MindGarden is one of the most wonderful apps I have ever came across to have free access to this is something I’m very grateful for I have been much more consistent in meditation because of MindGarden and has helped improve stay consistent with writing and meditating I hope if you see this you know you should also get MindGarden I wish you luck on your journey much love

by Blacktalon13

When I first started using MindGarden there were some bugs and glitches here and there. What sets MindGarden apart is that the developers really listen and appreciate the feedback. Every single bug report I have made has been addressed. Not only that but this is an extremely solid meditation app. It’s the only one I have bothered to stick with and I am a premium user. Biijan is fantastic and extremely peaceful/soothing. The guided courses are also a boon to help anyone in their mindfulness journey wrap their mind around the entire concept of it and benefits of daily practice. MindGarden being gamified and tracking streaks along with having unlocks only further amplifies and encourages daily practice. Since using MindGarden I am more level headed, sleep better, more productive and less stressed at work, etc. Worth every penny and minute put into it!

by Lifeform42

MindGarden is absolutely amazing! It is the first app that I have ever found with guided meditations that has gamified elements throughout it. The guided meditations are extremely soothing with an amazing voiceover and good and calm nonjudgemental guidance. Also the way Mind Garden keeps track of streaks is incredibly motivated, and I love thinking about what flowers I could unlock in the future. The developer is very quick to respond to any concerns and questions and seems genuinely like an amazing person who is trying to help others. I think this may just be one of the absolute competitors to other guided meditation apps. I can't wait to see what MindGarden plans to do in the future and I plan on sticking around with it for an incredibly long time. I would highly recommend anybody on the fence to download MindGarden.

I’ve tried many of the most popular mediation apps including Headspace and Calm and I can confidently say that this app is the one that will really allow me to consistently incorporate meditation into my lifestyle. I tried to make meditation a part of my morning routine for the past 3 years using Calm and Headspace and it was no good due to the drab UI and lack of engagement with the user in both apps. this app has been a game changer because of its almost game-like nature where I see my “garden” growing in MindGarden as I too grow my mental garden with mindfulness and peace. The meditations are also perfect in length and the instructors make me a feel a sense of comfort, allowing me to enter a state where I can best meditate. Thank you this app for allowing me to see the true benefits of consistent meditation.

by LovelyRookiE29

I have been using MindGarden now for a few days and I can honestly say that the mediation really slows down my mind and helps ground me. Normally with journals in apps, they let rant about your day which is great to letting you express yourself but with MindGarden ’s prompt of “what are you grateful for today?” really helps me focus on the positive things in my life. I’m still a beginner with meditation but I appreciate how friendly it is with time, letting you choose between 30 second meditation to 5 minutes. I hope to see some more variation of plants in shop but overall this is a very cute helpful app! :) The developers really care about their app and the purpose of why they created it.

by AJ_Panda

Whether you are brand new to meditation or have been practicing for years, this app has something of value to offer. Between breathwork, meditations, journal prompts, mood check ins and the garden of plants to grow, there is something for everyone! Guided and unguided sessions along with the option from 30 seconds to 2 hours gives users the ability to add these practices into their day no matter their schedule. Thank you to the Mind Garden team for your hard work and dedication to creating a more mindful world!

I have tried several mindfulness apps, and I either get bored or I feel lost and end up deleting it. MindGarden is so soothing right when you open it, and the exercises are so easily laid out and explained. It is so much more helpful than any other app I have tried. The art is adorable, and I love all the different plants you can collect. The way the streaks are set up and presented is very motivating to continue coming back each day, which is also so helpful for someone trying to make mindfulness a habit every day.

Ever since FocusByte being so unique in concept and with great UI, I was really excited to see how MindGarden would turn out, and it truly did not disappoint. I’ve been aware of meditation and the benefits, and I’ve tried the various apps to engrave this as a habit. However, each time I would find myself stopping.
MindGarden, just like FocusByte, is truly a game changer in helping and promoting that rhythm. The features help me stay hooked into daily meditation, and I’ve really been reaping the benefits of this habit such as better sleep, increased focus, and etc.
Not to mention, the cute design and the nice overlay creates an amazing user experience. Without a doubt, this is the best meditation app out there.

by KoMacDre

I’ve been working on my personal growth and healing and I’ve used numerous apps like Calm, Headspace, etc., for meditative purposes and none of them are as exciting to use as this one. MindGarden itself is very easy to navigate despite a few glitches here and there, but nothing that’s unable to be surpassed. I find the most exciting aspects on the home page where you can document your mood, journal, and do breath work or meditate. I have school and work most days and MindGarden makes it time efficient and convenient to take small moments for to ground myself and find gratitude :) WOULD RECOMMEND!

by Sghoes

I was looking for a good meditation app a while ago, and I happened to stumble upon this underrated app! I've been using MindGarden for around a year now, and despite a few minor bugs it has served me well! MindGarden has many features under one subscription, including: breathworks, meditations, courses, mood logging, jounaling, a streak system, and a calendar where you can grow a plant by doing a meditation and add that to the calendar, and you can also buy plants or unlock them. MindGarden's meditations have helped me through some of my most anxiety-filled and stressful moments, and are also helpful for relaxing to sleep or energizing you in the morning. The voices are very soothing as well. Despite being a little buggy, MindGarden is perfect for beginners and advanced meditators alike; I recommend MindGarden to anyone who is interested in meditation!

by Issaic Jeon

this app is the type of app that makes you glad you have an IPhone. Meditation is something that has always been on and off for me, but the way MindGarden makes you feel accomplished after each session makes it almost addicting. Can’t wait for the upcoming features, went pro to also support the small 3 person team!

by Gcharissem

There are many great meditation apps out there and this is one of the best! It’s helped me sleep better, less nightmares, and has calmed me down during stressful situations. There are a few bugs and glitches to work out but it seems as though it’s in great hands, as the creator seems to truly care!

I love MindGarden and I’ll continue to use it to help my daily life. I highly recommend!

by Htyvr Go

I just wanted you to know that MindGarden helps me. I am struggling with depression and do skip meditating a lot even though I should do it more often. But the meditation on MindGarden does help me calm down and stay motivated. I love how you guys also listen to your customers and take suggestions. That’s very awesome! Anyways, thank you for Mind Garden, I look forward to meditating more.

by Jaidenstoller

With the ever-changing world climate, meditation should be more common. Things get hectic and life moves way to fast, so taking a minute or two to take a pause and clear my head has been so helpful. The guided meditation is so well done, and the plants are so cute !! MindGarden is truly one of the best guided meditations that I’ve gone through, and I hope to see more greatness from the team !!

by Macee Maceye

I started using MindGarden to help me transition back to routine after quarantine. It’s been super overwhelming and I just needed a way to help me reduce some stress. MindGarden has been super helpful and I use it every morning to start my day off on a positive note! You can write gratitudes, record your mood and meditate! Would recommend if you’re looking for guided meditation or need some healthy stress relief:)

by SushiChoudai

I love how attainable MindGarden makes meditation for a beginner like me! Instead of feeling defeated after not being able to sit for a 30min meditation, the shorter guided increments offered by MindGarden is a much more realistic goal!

I’m excited to see where MindGarden goes in terms of design, aesthetics, and lessons! I just KNOW MindGarden is going to blossom into something even more amazing!!

by Hjk688

So intuitive so simple, whoever created MindGarden is a genius. Using gamification to push users to stick with the habit of mindfulness actually works. Seeing my garden every morning gives me that push to use MindGarden everyday. Investing in the pro subscription is also highly recommended if your serious about getting happier, more clear and focused.

by JTubes

MindGarden has really helped me to get into a practice of meditating and also gratitude. It is set up simply and the meditation courses are great to help you not feel intimidated by meditation and mindfulness. I love the metaphor of tending to your garden and that you can visually see your journey with different types of plants. I can’t recommend this enough!

by Incubusoad

MindGarden has been a game changer for me. Every single meditation I have done has been amazing and has helped me. Some of the meditations in the “Intro to Meditation” course are my go-to’s when I am feeling lost in anxiety. I highly recommend MindGarden. I’ve gone “pro” and it’s worth every single penny. Best $40 I’ve spent so far this year.

by Wolfixtra

I love the pretty colors and overall aesthetic of MindGarden which is very calming. I also like how they make it a bit more fun by having plants that you can grow. Also the voice for most of the meditations is nice and calming unlike some other meditations I have tried! I would definitely recommend!

MindGarden has helped me out so much. Last semester was my first time at a university, and it made managing my Bipolar Disorder difficult. I was stressed all the time and my mood was all over the place. Using MindGarden for the past week has already caused noticeable changes in my mood, and I’m really grateful for that.

by Short_stack52

Hands down the best meditation app I’ve used. I’ve downloaded most of the ones in iTunes and this is the only one that I’ve found helpful. The subscription rate is much fairer than the other apps, and there’s so many options to help with your exact need.
