Aura Dreamscape 4+

Almost works

While there is a decent collection of audio tracks and meditations I genuinely enjoy, there are a few problems with the app or device that make this hard to recommend.

First of all, it’s difficult to trust an alarm that goes off long after the time I set it - seemingly waiting for me to open my phone before activating.

Second, the light is way too bright even on the lowest setting to use in the meditations before bed. It would be neat for the breath work, but not enough to adjust my eyes to the sun while trying to fall asleep.

Sometimes the Bluetooth will disconnect the mask from the device and the voice of the Almighty will reach into my dreams to pull me out with a message from the heavens breaking the peaceful silence of slumber to say “BLUETOOTH DEVICE DISCONNECTED”.

My last point is more of a personal desire but it would be nice if the speakers covered my ears and actually block outside sounds a bit so I don’t need my ear plugs when traveling and I could actually use this thing in a plane. Otherwise it’s just not worth traveling with.

That’s my two cents. I hope some of these issues will get addressed, I might even update my review if enough changes, but until then my two cents say two stars.
