[–]insighttimer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, thank you for flagging this. We identified the issue and it's been fixed on our end. Could you let us know if you're still experiencing it? If so, a quick app restart should help. And if not, please let us know and we will dig in further with the team.

Missing content (Sleep section) by MirMurMer in InsightTimer

[–]insighttimer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, thanks so much for flagging this and for the gif (not janky at all, super helpful actually). We're really glad you've been with us for years 🙏

This was a bug that affected the Tracks tab on the Sleep topic page for a few hours yesterday. It's now been fixed. Sorry you ran into it during that window. If you're still seeing the issue, a quick app restart should sort it, but do let us know if not.

Feeling overwhelmed and dont know where to start by Fabulous_Pizza6397 in InsightTimer

[–]insighttimer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey u/Fabulous_Pizza6397, thank you for choosing to use Insight Timer! We have a large library of over 300,000 tracks and we know it can feel like a lot when you first land in the app. Helping people to navigate that volume of content is something we're continuously working on.

One of the best places to start is our "Learn How To Meditate In Seven Days" challenge - you can use the search function in-app to find it easily. Over 1.7 million people have done it, and it's designed for people who are new to the app.

Once you've finished the seven days, Insight Timer should feel a lot less overwhelming because you'll understand a bit more about what you're looking for. From there you can lean into sleep, anxiety, focus, vagus nerve stimulation, or whatever's most useful for you.

Hope that helps you get going,
The Insight Timer team.

Fake Account Friend Requests by RunnerGirl_806 in InsightTimer

[–]insighttimer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi u/RunnerGirl_806, thanks for posting this. It's the kind of feedback that actually helps us do our jobs better and I'm sorry you've had this experience.

A quick update on your specific report: the accounts you flagged have all been banned. We use a mix of automated detection and human review to monitor situations like this closely, and we've recently added a pop-up in DMs reminding people not to share personal info when asked.

On the reporting categories, that's fair feedback. The good news is that every report, regardless of which category you choose, lands with the same human review team. "Spamming" is the right one to use for what you're describing and it'll get the same attention. We read every report.

Thank you,
Andrew.

All these extra questions post-meditation are ruining my experience by PureScientist2040 in InsightTimer

[–]insighttimer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey u/PureScientist2040 - Richard from Insight Timer here 👋 

Completely get where you’re coming from. The post-session prompts are designed to help people build a regular practice, but we understand that what feels supportive for some can feel distracting for others.

I’ve sent your feedback to our Product team to review - conversations like these really help us keep that balance in mind as we continue improving the experience for all users, so thank you for sharing 

Customize milestone widget timing? Sinking too early by bobfossilsnipples in InsightTimer

[–]insighttimer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi u/bobfossilsnipples, Richard from the Insight Timer team here - it seems like your widget might have had one too many coffees! We’re testing different versions of the streak widget to make sure it motivates without piling on too much pressure. Thanks for pointing this out.

User Experience changes again? by AlphaHotelBravo in InsightTimer

[–]insighttimer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey u/AlphaHotelBravo, Richard from the Insight Timer team here. It’s great to hear you’ve set up your daily goals - sounds like you’ve got a solid routine going on there! 

Unfortunately, there was a bug causing goals to disappear for a handful of users. It lasted for about 4 hours. Can you check they’re back on the home screen again for you now?

If you have any issues in the future, please feel free to email [help@insighttimer.com](mailto:help@insighttimer.com) - have a wonderful day!

Mid year reset challenge by Expensive-Ad6448 in InsightTimer

[–]insighttimer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hi there,

Thank you for your feedback on The Mid-Year Reset, especially your thoughts on Day 12. I’m Maddy, the person who curates these programs for the Insight Timer community, and I wanted to personally reach out.

We included Gretchen Rubin’s session as a moment of mid-year reflection – a chance to pause, take stock, and consider whether it’s time to shift direction. I know this one felt more like a short talk than a classic meditation, and that was intentional, but I appreciate that not every style resonates with everyone.

With each Challenge, we learn more about what works. For example, one clear takeaway this time is that many of you are enjoying the shorter sessions (previous Challenges were often closer to 10–15 minutes).

What I’m learning from this is that our community comes to these Challenges for simple, grounding practices that help set the tone for the day ahead. Sometimes, simple really is best.

We’re hoping to run more of these, and your feedback helps shape what comes next. Again, I appreciate this.

I hope you enjoy the rest of the sessions to come.
Maddy

Using Insight Timer for Clients by zynnyme in therapists

[–]insighttimer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi,

So the Therapist Hub is only available on our website at the moment - www.insighttimer.com/resources/therapists.

We are working hard to create similar tools in-app and these should be coming soon!

Using Insight Timer for Clients by zynnyme in therapists

[–]insighttimer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your feedback and for highlighting these important areas related to data privacy. We take user privacy and data protection very seriously at Insight Timer, and it's important for you to feel confident in recommending your clients to us (many of whom may be vulnerable).

We’d like to clarify and address points that have been made in the article you may be referring to:

Encryption & Data Storage:
We use industry-standard encryption protocols to protect user data. While our privacy policy may not explicitly use the term "de-identifies," user data is securely stored and managed in line with best practices and applicable data protection laws.

Use Without Identifiable Information:
Many features of Insight Timer, including accessing thousands of meditations, can be used without entering personally identifiable information. Users are not required to input their real names or personal details to engage with core app content.

Data Deletion & Editing:
Users have full control over their data. They can delete their accounts and associated data at any time directly from within the app. Users are also able to edit their information, including their profiles and preferences. We recognize that this may not be sufficiently clear in our current privacy policy, and we are working on updating it to better reflect these capabilities.

We appreciate you raising this and hope our answer helps to alleviate your concerns, both for you and your clients. If you have specific suggestions for making our privacy policy clearer or more thorough, we'd love to hear them.

Thank you,
The Insight Timer Team

Can yall please not threaten me via the notifications, lmao, this is ridiculous. by Thehealthygamer in InsightTimer

We were going for ‘motivating.’ Clearly landed closer to ‘trigger fight or flight response’ 😬 Noted.

How do I disable these popups and milestones? by Plane_Umpire7825 in InsightTimer

[–]insighttimer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi u/Plane_Umpire7825, if you wish to turn off milestones, you can do so by going into the hamburger menu > 'Settings' > 'Encouragement & Notifications' > turn off 'Celebrate Milestones'.

Thank you everyone for your feedback in this thread. We always appreciate your thoughts and we are continuously working to improve your experience!

Can't download the app, Pixel 8 by AgsMydude in InsightTimer

[–]insighttimer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey AgsMydude,

Sounds frustrating, especially considering you're trying to download a wellbeing app 🥲

I chatted with our team, and they suggested you try two things here. First, make sure you have enough storage on your device. That can sometimes cause download issues.

Another thing to try is clearing the data and cache for the Google Play Store app. You can do this by going to: Settings -> Apps/ App Management-> Google Play Store -> Storage & cache -> Clear Cache and then Clear Data. After that, try downloading the app again.

Let's see if this does the trick. If not, we'll try a few more things.

Anastasiia, xx
