User Reviews

EMDR is praised as a robust, multi-sensory EMDR tool with audio, visual, and tactile cues. It supports Bluetooth controllers and offers strong customization for self-guided therapy with good developer support. However, reviews repeatedly flag a pushy subscription model, limited speed options, occasional bugs, and platform constraints (notably Apple TV). Overall, it's powerful and versatile but business model and reliability issues are common friction points.
Pros
  • Robust, multi-sensory EMDR tool with audio, visual, and tactile cues.
  • Supports Bluetooth controllers (e.g., Joy-Cons) for tapping, enabling hands-free therapy.
  • Highly customizable experience for self-guided therapy, with strong developer support.
  • Simple, effective interface and good value for full feature set.
Cons
  • Pushy monetization model with a free trial/subscription upsell and automatic start.
  • Limited speed options (only three speeds) with no precise BPM control.
  • Occasional bugs and reliability issues, such as sound not working or crashes.
  • Platform and usage constraints, including an Apple TV app issue and limited background/offline use.

I haven’t been able to use the app with my Apple Watch since the last update. I’ve tried restarting both devices. Deleting and reloading. The Apple Watch app won’t launch at all, so I can pair the watch. And I just paid for a subscription so I can use it again. This sucks.

This is a good app on iPhone and iPad but the Apple TV app just doesn’t work. Any hard click function on a remote starts the animation up. Even when navigating in settings. Idk how you can rationalize charging a subscription when core functionality on a platform is borked.
