Comments on Calm - Sleep, Meditate, Relax for Android
★★★★★Barbara Dominguez· Jul 22, 2026
I love Calm. I use mostly for their Sleep Stories. I have not had one fail me yet, some are so interesting that I want to hear the end before falling asleep.but then again, I'm glad that I don't.
★★★★☆Jolliette Windsor· Aug 12, 2026
Really needed by those that can't afford it due to alcoholism and retardation from substance abuse.
★★★★★Ahmad Fadzli· Aug 5, 2026
Calm is an excellent wellness and mindfulness app that helps users relax, manage stress, improve sleep, and practice meditation. The app offers a variety of guided meditations, breathing exercises, sleep stories, relaxing sounds, and mindfulness programs.

They will keep taking money from your account when you cancel! I canceled within minutes of seeing the price. The app itself states the company cannot stop auto payments, you have to manage payments in Google Play subscriptions. My Google Play subscriptions also show the subscription was canceled in January and no transactions since. Calm has been taking monthly withdrawals anyway despite multiple attempts to contact them. Had to change my card number and disputing charges with my bank. BEWARE

You have to pay for the app it's not free. Which is too bad because if it was free I'd probably have given it a lot better rating.
