Calm

Meditation, breathing exercises and sleep stories for the teenager who struggles to wind down.

Roughly ages 10 and upAbout €85 a year, with a free trial
Independent recommendation. No commission.
Positives
  • Sleep stories and breathing exercises that genuinely help a lot of people fall asleep without scrolling themselves there.
  • It gets to know you a little, and its suggestions improve the longer you use it.
  • Muted colours and a calm face. Nothing blinks, nothing begs for your attention.
Worth knowing
  • Sleep stories mean a phone in the bedroom, and in the article on good sleep I recommend the opposite: the phones sleep in the living room.
  • Mostly in English, and a fair amount of the content is aimed at adults. Best for the older kids.
My assessment

Best for teenagers, particularly around sleep and stress. Play it through a speaker rather than holding the phone, and put the phone somewhere else afterwards.
