What are users saying about Mind the Bump

H70%
by H####:

None of the meditations load properly. I've tried four so far and they play the first few minutes before cutting out.

M70%
by M####:

Cuts out throughout meditations and doesn't count the amount of meditations you've completed

F70%
by F####:

Keeps cutting out half way through a meditation, doesn't matter which one I chose they all do it.

Q70%
by Q####:

This is a great app and very useful for any stresses going on. Although I just downloaded the app on my Samsung S6 and it needs some issues fixed. I used at least 2 or 3 of the meditations and when I looked at my home screen it says 0 for both the meditation minutes and meditation times. Kind of a bummer not to have those recording correctly.

Z70%
by Z####:

I haven't had one technical issue with this app, so no complaints on functionality. I'm still not sure if mindfulness mediation is for me. Sometimes it seems to help me relax and sometimes I can't seem to get out of my head, but that's not the app's fault. I think the guided meditations are great to practice even to just give yourself at least 7 minutes of "me time" every day.

U70%
by U####:

Crashes, doesn't ever record progress, all round pretty frustrating (not what you want with a meditation app).

M70%
by M####:

First of all, I'm not sure why an app to listen to meditation clips needs me to make an account with a password. Especially when it doesn't seem to be tracking anything at all. I can select a track from the list and listen to it, but I've listened to several and my main page still says 0 minutes and 0 completed - not that I know why I'd care to keep track of how many minutes I've listened to these tracks in the first place.

Someone recommended this app and it gives me more time for myself even if it takes 10min out of your day!! I am a person who looks at reviews and this one got a 5star!!!

O70%
by O####:

I have a one year old and I just found this app. I feel it is useful to any person who is unsettled and anxious in life. Very helpful for new parents where these feelings are overwhelming.

N70%
by N####:

I like the fact that the sessions are brief but deep. However, there is no instruction as what I'm supposed to do nor is it logging in my sessions. Please fix.

We had a baby with colic who fed every 90mins for 45mins, cried and rarely slept for 4.5months. This app was useful to find the calm in the day, night and wee early hours of the mornings. Have recommended to my pregnant family members and friends.

X70%
by X####:

This is a wonderful app. Based in science, well designed, pretty and easy to use. The exercises are useful, practical, and a joy to follow. The guided meditations are excellent! The feature that counts your meditations doesn't work, but that's OK, it's not a competition anyways, LOL. The countdown to birth is very helpful. Love this app!!

H70%
by H####:

I loved how easy I found meditating with this app! Both counters worked for me, the number of meditations and minutes done.

J70%
by J####:

I started using this during my pregnancy, am still using it now that my little one is 10 months and will continue to use it in the future. I love it.

R70%
by R####:

Wish I knew about this app earlier on in the early post partum period. Would have loved to listen to the meditations during those lonely night feeds.I too had issues with the app not logging meditations, however I simply reinstalled it and ensure I use the close and back buttons within the app and works a treat! :)

X70%
by X####:

I was looking for something that was longer than 7 minutes. To meditate or practice hypnosis through childbirth through.

I used this app to practice relaxing for when I gave birth and to de-stress during pregnancy. And I love how you can use it after birth too. Really helps you become a calmer person for the big day. Tons of sessions and they are short which I liked because it's hard to find time to do 20+ minutes of hypnobirthing/babies techniques. I only wishes it brought more attention to birth and baby then it did about being open and aware. I did have a natural birth and I think this is one of the things that helped

K70%
by K####:

It doesn't say I've completed any meditations. I don't know if this is something I need to tick myself or if it should do it automatically

L70%
by L####:

Enjoying the app however it doesn't count the mediations I've completed. This is very frustrating! Please fix. I've tried the 'contact' section of the website but it doesn't work.

F70%
by F####:

A great idea that works pretty well. As others have mentioned the home page doesn't update exercises & minutes done, however exercises are marked off in the timeline and show up in history.

K70%
by K####:

Great app. Simple and useful meditations for both partners

Q70%
by Q####:

I enjoying it, so far. Doesn't record any meditations I have completed. It is great for women who are going through prenatal and postnatal depression. I recommend at least give it a go, and see if you feel uplifted after some time.

K70%
by K####:

The guided meditations are good but read by a newsreader with little emotion of feeling. The app also doesn't tell progress or have a way to rewind a meditation of you get interrupted.

K70%
by K####:

Keeps freezing. Won't load

K70%
by K####:

An excellent app
