Calm app

Calm is a popular, subscription-based, meditation app accessible across web-based and smartphone platforms (iOS and Android) with over 100 million downloads and four million subscribers. The app offers a range of content rooted in mindfulness principles to help users incorporate mindfulness into their lives and generally promote wellbeing (e.g., a large library of guided meditations including the 10-minute Daily Calm, Sleep Stories, educational courses, mindful movement, music, and nature scenes and sounds). Calm also teaches users the basics of mindfulness, includes components to remind users to meditate, track user activity, and allow users to share their status with others. The feasibility of the app and its efficacy for improving mental health outcomes (i.e., stress, anxiety, and depressive symptoms), mindfulness, and sleep have been previously tested in various populations providing evidence that using Calm may improve wellbeing.
