Expand: Beyond Meditation - Reviews, Revenue and Downloads - Apple App Store

Description

From the world-renowned Monroe Institute, access profound states of expanded awareness normally attained after years of dedicated practice to foster greater meaning and purpose, relieve stress, improve sleep, and release unwanted patterns. The guided meditations in Expand feature Monroe Sound Science, our proprietary audio technology that uses targeted soundwave patterns to facilitate unique states of consciousness. Using Expand, you can access the profound wisdom and joy buried deep within your conscious and subconscious minds.

Expand features 100+ guided meditations, along with multi-day mini-courses, guided reflection and journaling, and custom-generated soundscapes that target specific brainwave states.

Meditation topics include:

- Relaxation & Healing
- Joy & Meaning
- Insight and Intuition
- Sleep & Dreaming
- Nurturing Healthy Relationships
- Creativity & Manifestation
- Beyond the Physical

Expand was developed by the Monroe Institute, the world’s foremost center for the study and practice of expanded consciousness. Monroe is a 501(c)(3) non-profit founded in the early 1970s as a research and educational organization. In addition to Expand, Monroe offers a wide variety of experiential retreats virtually, on our 300-acre Virginia campus, and in over a dozen countries worldwide.

No longer locked out.

After update, I was logged out. I emailed the address listed on the contact us page on the Monroe Institute website. I received a response within a few hours with easy to follow directions for reinstating my subscription.

Locked out of my subscription

Have been using this without issue since it first came out until last week. The update has locked me out and a call to the Institute got me a referral to support but I haven’t heard from them. I will make another attempt but am quite irritated that they haven’t fixed this by now.

Annoying

Every time I open this app it says I don’t have premium even though I’ve had a subscription for months. Have to reopen it to get it to work.

Now requires cloud account

It seems that the app now requires creating a cloud account to use. I’ve been disappointed with the quality but requiring contact info seems a bit much.

Locked out of account

I’m locked out. They did some kind of update and canceled my prepaid account. I called their offices and was referred to a website that doesn’t work. Not at all happy. Before updating, I loved this app.

Technical Issues

Bought a sub, worked for 20 days, logged me out and when you log back on it doesnt recognize your subscription. There is not even a way to log out unless you delete app. Never got it to work again. So cancelled

Voices

Excellent technology however most of the voices used for the guided meditations are not relaxing for meditation . Just because they are officers of n the organization does not justly using their voices . I would highly recommend this to my patients if you used professional meditative voices that are calming and use hypnotic inductions . Also eliminate negative words from the grammar. The voices and words should be soft , melodic , and calming vs harsh , sharp and abrupt . This has been mentioned by many others in the comments.

This is not like the Gateway Experience

I came across the Gateway Experience in the early 2000’s and it changed the way I look at life. When I saw the Monroe Institute put this out I was excited to check it out but unfortunately it’s nothing like the gateway experience. They’re good tapes but it’s not the mental training I was looking for that the Gateway Experience provides.

Add more content to make subscription worth it

Great app, meditations are great. $11 is a bit steep for me with the amount of content but it’s worth it for now. Please add gateway tapes in order to keep my subscription getting payed
