Brainwaves. Great product!!!!

Crashing. An update is needed... it keeps crashing upon opening. Otherwise... I LOVE THIS APP!

Another Great One. I bought ALL of the binaural beat apps before I found the BrainWave. This is my favorite daytime app; Altered States is better for night. I listen to this all the time -- never a single problem.

Yes, these really work. I love love love this program! I’ve used many different tones, but these work so amazingly well for me, I always come back.

Helps me concentrate with TBI and Post Concussion Syndrome. This app is invaluable to me in regard to concentration, dealing with chronic pain and concentration issues resulting from injury sustained in a rock climbing accident. Without this app I’d have a much more difficult time doing my job, which is very labor intensive and cognitively exhausting as I assist scientists across academic, nonprofit, and governmental sectors. Thank you for these binaural beats! I need them.

Great app for stressful jobs. I use this app everyday at work. My job involves lots of writing and requires me to be focused and work at an extremely fast pace. However, my work environment is constantly loud and chaotic. This app helps me stay focused, have more energy, reduce stress, and remain sane!

Top brain. This app is awesome. Plus you can listen to it at the same time you listen to your own music. Is something you should tryout.

Bought for the kids. They always need help concentrating given all the distractions they have. I am confident that given the other BrainWave apps I have this one works as well as they do.

Love this app. I am one of those skeptics who used to believe that binaural beats are a bunch of hooey! After reading reviews and doing some research on this, I decided to give this a try. That was back in 2010. I have been loving this app and I can say that this app has provided me with an awesome tool that I could've never asked for in anything else.

Use it often. Comes in handy when I need to focus on a task

Best brainwave program out there!!. I love this program! I looked for months for something that would allow me to use my own music (iTunes) and that combined different brainwaves for max usefulness. This program does both plus it allows you to control the volume levels of the ambient/background music and the brainwaves. Additionally it has an alarm clock built in so I don't have to be startled by an overly loud phone alarm. I use this program (as well as the 32 Brainwave program) while studying for several hours a day and then I also use the Dream program while sleeping at night. Seriously these programs are the best thing I've found (I know the demo screen looks confusing but it's so easy to use). I love that with this program I can choose which brainwave combo to use depending on the task I'm trying to accomplish. They really help me study, focus, relax, sleep and wake up. You won't be disappointed.

ADHD Lifesaver!!. I use brainwave everyday to concentrate and excel making the right project decisions. Also great to relieve social media scatterbrained thinking.

The Real Deal. This came recommended to me by a friend who is an integrative practitioner and prescribes it often. So I bought the bigger package have used it for many things. Plenty of categories indicated, but I use it Meditation, workouts, studying, relaxing and it's been really effective. It can play in the background, while listening to music or audiobooks, and settings are easy to control. The creator did a lot of research on binaural training himself. Highly recommended!

Amazing. I've listened to many binaural tracks with limited results. The creative problem solving track on this app is amazing. It makes me feel incredibly focused, confident, and calm, even when I'm super exhausted. I don't expect that this will work for everyone. Just keep trying until you for one that works for you. This one is my magic pill.

Great app indeed.. I'm sure you guys have heard the term "free is dangerous" indeed it is true. What if our fellow sharp mind creators dropped a free bi-beat on the app every now and then. Keep it sexy and new. :)

Hygiene for the brain. There is something about these brainwaves and pleasant tones that clears the mind. With a clear mind I am more focused, calm, and productive. I use this app when working on my book, to meditate, and to just think. I am very, very pleased with this product - and grateful for it too.

Love it. I love this app. I use it all the time and it really works. I only wish that you could use your own ambient noises. Other than that, it's great!

Works for me. Bought this because I have so many of the other Banzai brainwave apps - using it to study for the GRE exam and it really helps me to concentrate. I'm a huge fan of all their apps, and will include an update after I take the exam.

Pain in the heart. I have no heart problem, but 20 minutes into using the app I felt the beating of my heart and a certain pain. I immediately stopped the use and the pain went away. Not for everyone. I want a refund.

Finally. Great apps and no subscription. Apple has really started focusing on subscription apps leaving gems like this app bundle hidden. There are so many options available, there is a bunch of information in the app, and so far it is really helping me a lot. I am/was a skeptic of binaural sound therapy but it really has improved my meditation focus, my sleep quality, and it really does help me with just about any of my needs. It also does not hurt that the developer of this app responds very quickly to a message and is not only incredibly knowledgeable but also very pleasant to deal with. Definitely get the bundle of all of the apps as each one is different and very helpful!

Entertainment (or more?). I am not a Doctor and I don’t play one on the internet. I use this group of apps when I need to relax or focus. They work very well for me and I encourage anyone needing assistance in these areas to give them a try.

Great bundle. Highly recommend.. Better than music for concentrating while working. Use the sleeping sounds to squeeze more rest from the limited hours I get to sleep each night.

Amazingly Helpful. This is one of my Top 10 Favorite Apps! I always feel better after using it and the diversity of choices helps me focus on a particular area as needed. Have been using this app for almost a year now after a friend recommended it, and am beyond grateful to my friend and to this App's creators!

Don’t pass this by. This is a great app. I use it every single night for the last few years it is worth every penny.

I like it. I'm not sure if it actually works or if it's the placebo effect, but it really helps me stay focused while studying. It doesn't matter if I'm in a quiet library or noisy restaurant, it works. Good money spent.

Good with the bad. This is an excellent program overall, and it does seem to work. It has a variety of programs and is pretty flexible. I'm going to focus on what I think could be improved here. First off, the kitschy "tricorder" interface unnecessarily cramps the UI — rather silly style at the expense of function. I also quite dislike that the company splits the different programs across different apps; I'd much rather have a single app with categories for the different types of binaural programs. I did buy the package deal with all the apps, but that clutters my phone with 5 separate icons.

Effective. These Brainwave apps by Banzai Labs are great! They typically help with everything from concentration to relaxation and sleep for me. This particular SharpMind app almost has too many options, but it's not hard for me to find two or three that work well for me on a regular basis to improve concentration and productivity.

Wow, this works!. Used this while I was studying for a big certification exam. It really helped me focus, stay alert and remember what I was reading.

Great for the office or classroom. This app was recommended to me by a family member and I recall downloading it with skepticism. After using this for 2 years, I have found it helps immensely with concentration and calming oneself in a world filled with increasingly hectic "open plan" offices. I would recommend purchasing noise canceling earphones for enhanced effectiveness. Wonderful app all around.

REALLY WORKS!!!. This app works GREAT! I use it to study, relax, and energize. worth every cent. It would be great if they could add more background sounds or maybe let us use itunes at the same time. please work on an update. But other than that, its the best brainwave app along with "brainwave" on the market. !!!

Awsome.. it really helps you think about stuff and concentrait on stuff to. If you got money get it. It's worth it.

Excellent App Series. At first I was skeptical, but I've been using the brainwave apps for a little over 6 months now, and I'm in awe of the effects they've had. Call it the placebo effect if you will, but my studying skills and test scores are much greater than when I don't use the apps. Same for sleep; I have a really hard time getting to sleep and staying asleep, but the sleep programs help me out. They're definitely worth purchasing!

Great app, Love it:. Works great. I use it in many ways . It does what it says it will do. It's great for going to sleep. If you need a 15 minute nap when really tired you wake up with the gentle alarm feeling great. Great in mornings and studying with. Can customize it to what sounds that are right for you at a given time.

Amazing!. I did not have high hopes for this app, but I can say that this really does work. I am able to focus and avoid distraction while I am studying for tests and working on projects. While the sounds are initially somewhat jarring, after a few minutes I barely notice it since I am so focused on my work. Like another reviewer noted, it's only a problem when the sound abruptly stops at the end of the timer cycle - Then I lose my concentration! I hope that OS 4.0 offers the ability for this app to run in the background. It's a bummer when I have to navigate to some other app or to the home screen, which stops the app from running.

Good App. Great well working / walking around. I do wish there was a way to combine multiple sessions of different apps into one & delete the sessions I don't listen to.

Really helps. I put the problem solving program on when I work at the computer. It helps me keep my focus and concentrate rather than get distracted. The binaural programs really work and are well worth your 2 bucks.

Excellent!!!!!!!!. Wonderful programs and easy to use. Wide variety of choices. I listen to it every night for sleep and have just started using the concentration app. Have recommended this to many friends and patients alike

It works!. I use this app to fall asleep, study, and focus. Fantastic app! Buy it.

Great app!. Great app and I can play my own background sounds! My sleep seems deeper too.

Great entrainment. You did an awesome job making the apps binaural side, but thats just not enough. The interface isnt great. You need to put a customizable timer, aong with the presets. I bought to use at school, but i cannot as there is no 5 minute preset or ajustable timer. Its not that hard to put in a timer and my rating would go up to 5! Worth getting unless you just need a quick session

Very effective. I can definitely tell the difference when I use this app. I work in a crowded cubicle environment and I use this not only because the ambient nature sounds tune out background noise but it also because it really does focus my mind and help me concentrate and get more done.

Top Notch. My favorite Banzai Brainwave app. As with all binaural apps, it helps for "beginners" in the field to relax, still their body & mind and focus on something rote such as breathing while allowing the process to take effect. It may (likely) require a number of sessions to work,&I suggest starting with something that has an immediate & obvious result such as mental energy boost,so that when you start to feel the effects you'll know it. The encouragement will really boost your mind's reception to the continuation of the entrainment process. To the developers, I suggest creating isochronic tone apps that mirror your binaural ones, for those who aren't as easily effected by binaural beats.

Happy!!. The Confidence mode alone sold me, but the others are wonderful to use if reading to retain or just needing some quiet space from the rest of the world--esp. a tv in the room..helps me zero in on my tasks with greater ease. I also have the developers ALTERED STATES, POWER NAP, and MIND TUNER apps--something for every situation--thank you!! I will give you guys that 5th * when you update so that the modes end in a fade out--the abruptness of silence creates my only suggestion towards perfection. :-)

Highly recommended app. Recommend to all my friends. Would have gotten 5 stars if it didn't stop other audio from playing when turning on. Minor issue and just have to restart the other audio once Brainwave gets going. Not a huge deal. I use this app for almost every activity of my life except for driving and using dangerous equipment. Makes me better at whatever I'm doing at the time!!! Love it!

Amazing since IPhone 3G. They have been consistently good since then

Great if it works, alarm glitch. I don't know if it's a placebo affect or if this actually does something, but I do notice that I am able to concentrate better with this app. Worth the price. HOWEVER there is a glitch where if this app is playing and you have an alarm set up, the alarm won't make any sound. Also just might glitch out your sound in general so your music doesn't play from iTunes. If this happens though just restart your phone. Otherwise this is a great app.

Love this for work. I have had this app for a few months and use different components at needed times through the day - most particularly at work for focus and clarity. Interface could be simplified and decluttered in my opinion but this doesn't impact the functionality. Recommend trying

DAILY MUST HAVE. Excellent apps I use several times a day. Iv been using for 2years and liked them so well I bought 2of the bundles! I LOVE love love that you can layer them over anythg- other subliminals or reg music. I use them quietly at work and carry my phone in the breast pocket of my uniform. My boss calls it my "Happy Birds"!!!

Addictively Functional. I hate to say it, but I owe a lot of my creative productivity and peace of mind to this, and the other BonzaiLabs Brainwave apps. I am an academic, and have prepared lectures incorporating research into the physiology and psychology of consciousness - that said, for about two years now I have myself used these simple binaural entrainment apps to apply exactly these principles in practice. Kudos, and I am patiently waiting to experience your new creations :-D

Getting me through graduate school. I use this app all the time to be able to stay in my computer for hours. I love that I can add my iTunes playlist and listen to the binaural waves simultaneously. A must for students or people that have problem concentrating. Get it!

Great App. I am really enjoying this app. I meditate with it when i wake up, playing while I’m working and meditation before sleep. I love the different options in music and sound waves.

Mind blowing great. Love these programs and apps. Using them for writing a novel and other focused requirements. Excellent brain wave listening tracks with great variety. I use with different music. Every advantage helps. Thanks brainwave producers and makers. Great job! A+

Incredible app!. Such great value for the price. It really works and it really helps! thank you guys so much

Brilliant. These work.

Amazing app!. Really happy with the results. Support is very responsive too!

Dangerous. Whether this app does anything useful in reality can be argued: what cannot be argued is that this app can be quite dangerous to your health. After using the shortest program I could find -- ten minutes -- at half volume, I had loud tinnitus (ringing in the ears) for two hours following. If you try this app, exercise extreme caution.

i dont know how it works?. I got a headache >:( i dont even know how it works, there are no instructions

I'm really feeling it!. This app has made me study without disruption, focussing to the point where I can recall more clearly. My university studies wouldn't be the same without this app. Especially since there are so many different programs available. The customization that let you choose which let you change the background sound makes listening to the waves less boring over time. I've been around some other apps and this is the best I've seen.

Wonderful app!. I use this app to help with focus and concentration. I’m not exactly sure how it works but it certainly!

Ok. I really like the app but, the music doesn’t always work properly...

Been using for 15 years!. I use this app mainly to work, with the Focus and Concentration mode. It takes about 5 minutes and I’m fully focused on my task. It saved my life when I decided to get off the ADD meds while finishing my Master’s.

Very helpful. Sometimes, I just can't think. I'm too tired or my ADD symptoms have me distracted. I can stare at my computer screen and spin my wheels for... too long. This app has helped me productive when my brain isn't firing on all cylinders. I've also had success with the power nap and meditation tracks.

Helps me overcome my ADHD while studying. Thank you for making this marvellous app! Through it, you’ve helped me accomplish many important things by allowing me a vehicle to get into the right state to accomplish them. I want you to know I’m very grateful. The feature that is most invaluable to me is the ability to use it while also listening to my music app. As an example of how I use this, while studying, I like to listen to the “Centred Mind” setting while I listen to a Spotify playlist called “Intense Studying”. For me, the two combine perfectly for me to focus on my work for hours at a tome (I have ADHD, so that really says something!). I hope what I’ve written above suffices to get my point across in sufficient detail for other people like me to consider the merits of trying your apps in different scenarios such as studying, relaxing, or even sleeping. With great admiration, respect and gratitude, Manny

My mind leveled up. I feel more confident and spirited.

Really Works!. I have a really stress job, and issues with falling asleep. I've been using this ap at work to help keep focused and stay calm under tight deadlines/pressure, and using it at night to fall asleep to. This program really works in both instances. I love the fact I can customize how long it runs and usually keep it at an 8hour cycle. I have basic ap, so not sure what the upgrades offer but I wished the program also had soothing, the new-agey type, meditative music in the mix and other sounds besides the beach ocean. Bird song, or a babbling brook sounds would be great, for instance.

Buy Eno Instead. I don't think this has any benefit at all. But I might be wrong so I will give it three stars.

Helps Me Focus. Improves my focus & concentration level while studying for certification exams.

So helpful. Healing from TBI (traumatic brain injury), this app is so helpful.

Love it but. I'll give it 5 stars when you fix the silence between stages.

Slavik K. Works great for creating a beneficial environment while studying or working. Love it. Thanks guys.

Gets you focused fast. Love this app. Easy to use & really works!

Great tool. I highly recommend it. I can't explain how It works or why but it does.

Waste. It does not work. It anoys the hick out of me.

Helps. Keeps my mind sharp

I recommend this to my patients.. Good enough for a medical recommendation from a doctor who specializes in brain health.

Killer app. So I've collected all these guy's apps now and they are awesome. Nothing beats these apps.

Only app I use EVERYDay all day. Invaluable. I use it in the background whether it is a podcast an audible book, YouTube video working, or meditating. I do believe in the cognitive science. And even if it's placebo it's still soothing and great background noise! Thanks

Amazing. Helps with homework made a 2 hour job take a quarter of the time to do. Also helped me remember a speech, and be confident presenting it.

Please add "critical thinking". Please please add "critical thinking" and "inspired creativity" from brain wave 30. Then it will be perfect "sahrp mind". And also please support iphone 5 screen resolution.

The real deal-- really helps you feel more centered, etc.. This binaural beats brand was recommended by a friend. He had such high praises, I bought the entire bundle (it was under 10 bucks at the time). It works really well, I use it from everything from headache relief, Meditations, lateral thinking, focus/ concentration. Those are a few of my favorites from the bundle. Some work better than others, but I've only experienced positive effects. Controls and settings are simple and intuitive to use. The sounds are downloaded to the device, so it works offline. The best feature is that it can work in the background when you are watching YouTube videos, listening to music, or even chatting on the phone! The other person on the phone doesn't hear it, so it's not distracting or weird for them. You must use headphones. The only new feature that would be nice, is if we had access to the controls when the screen is locked. But I can definitely live without this feature.

Effective. Helps me concentrate when reading dry material. Helps me relax and/or meditate between study sessions. Positively love the new "Forest" program! Kudos!

Wow!. I use this app when I'm studying and I can't believe how well it works. I'm like a machine when I use this.

My ears want to bleed. I am studying for comprehensive exams and bought this app. What a waste of money. I listened to the concentration boost and in the middle of the relaxing tone, a loud annoying high pitch began and it made my ears want to bleed. When I stopped it, my ears were ringing for a while. Awful!

Good. I almost fell asleep I was laughing hard once I thought about it was from an app! :)

Love it. The app has become an indispensable tool for me in many different respects - working, meditating, managing stress. Highly recommended.

Great App. Strongly recommended for mornings and finding focus while on the job.

Nifty. Great interface, and it really works!

Love it. My fave app. I listen to it everyday & often during sleep. Worth the upgrade too

Brain wave sharp mind. Excellent app. Noticeable effects!

Great addition to the BrainWave series. Great programs in this one and the new UI rocks. I highly recommend this app.

Bambi. Bambi

Must have!. Great app, must have! They have other great apps also. I have three of them.
