Sonus Island: Relaxing Sounds 4+

Great app but sound now not right on guided meditations

As per title really - I’ve had this app a few years and use it on and off - mostly for the sleep meditation. Having not used it for a while I’ve tried to use it and the background sounds completely overpower the voice - even though the sliding bar is fully at the voice end. I feel like an update would have caused this. The experience is the same in the other guided sessions. Please can you take a look?

Nice app but could do with some modifications

It’s actually a pretty good app. I would have given it five out of five stars if there were a few things that could be changed. I’m totally blind myself and I use an iPhone with the voice over facility which allows a blind person to read the screen. You may be aware of this or perhaps not, but you could make this app a bit more accessible and I can use it but a lot of it is guesswork trying to get around the screen. If you could make the icons a bit more audible so when a blind person can touch the screen as they flick around it it should speak what different options there are. I really don’t want to sound like I’m being ungrateful or nasty but once you have ironed out those bugs which could make this app more accessible to blind person. Then I think you’re definitely on a winner and you could potentially have another audience of people to approach. So in summary, keep up the good work but please try and make the app more accessible. If I can assist in any way then I don’t mind helping you. Many thanks.:)

Developer Response ,

Thanks for writing your review. That's a good point and we know we have a lot more work to do here. We will improve on this in future updates and thanks for pointing this out.

Great App

I started with the free version and enjoyed the one area that I got at the beginning. The beach sound was great for revision and sleeping. I later saw that the rest of the island cost money. I did the trail of the voice chat and decided to go ahead and purchase the full island. It turned out to be a great decision. Alt the other apps out there promising “instant life improvements” and “fall asleep instantly” are full of tinny bird sounds and American accents. This app however doesn’t have any of these flaws. It’s simple, intuitive and unlike many “mindfulness” apps out there doesn’t make you sign in with Facebook and share you personal progress. I love the graphics and the different places you can travel around the island. Well done to the developers; you’ve really helped me through my exams :)
