You can use this without email or pay. I tried the free version which currently has all the features unlocked. The ui is nice, the environments are ok, the fishes and turtles that move towards you look incredible and that's probably my favourite feature. There's a solid foundation but the app has a long way to go, but the dev reached out to me on reddit and I gave them some suggestion. The voice is relaxing and it's simple to use and has a good startup tutorial sequence. Personally to relax in VR and feel mindful I'd rather color in some cubes or do something with my hands rather than sit and stare at a scene that looks less visually impressive than the quest home screens.
Visutate Surprised Me. I'm not usually someone who meditates, but the visuals were immersive and calming, and the music was beautifully done. I especially loved the ocean experience, when turtles gently swam toward my hand as I held out seaweed with the controller. The app ran smoothly, and I appreciated how easy it was to use. Looking forward to seeing the new experiences when they're released.
Promising mindfulness platform. For transparency, the developer asked me to try out the game, but I didn't receive any form of payment. They didn't even explicitly ask me to review it. They just asked for thoughts and feedback. I elected to put them in the form of a store page review.I love they chose animated environments instead of photorealistic ones. I've seen other mindfulness apps go with photorealistic backgrounds, and they can feel static and unimmersive. I've seen other apps use similarly animated environments, but many of them came out years ago and look dated.In comparison, Visutate's environments are modern, beautifully high definition, clean and colorful. Of the four available environments, I will say enchanted grove was a bit underwhelming. I liked the rest a lot though, especially the lotus pond.The UI is clean. It reminds me of the Quest's recent UI overhaul, so it'll feel familiar to people used to navigating Horizon OS.While some features are still in development, the current customization options available are solid. You can adjust music and environmental volume; enable text, visual and/or voice breathing prompts; and choose from a few environmental effects.For a suggestion, I think some kind of "Are you sure?" prompt would be welcome before ending a breathing exercise. I didn't realize clicking the breathing icon again would end the exercise. I thought it'd let me adjust options mid session.Also, the user profile page features a seven-day mindfulness program, but I completed today's exercise by popping in and out of the environment without spending the full 10 minutes there. Would be nice to be able to reset my progress, and for the game to more minutely track actual time engaging in an exercise.For early access, I'm happy giving it a five-star review based on the potential I see and what looks like a pretty clear roadmap to release more content and features. If you've used similar apps in the past and want something newer, this is worth checking out.
excellent one. I have been using this for a few days and the experience is even better than I expected. The visuals are nice, the sounds are calming, and the interactions feel really natural. The interface is clean and looks professional, and I have not experienced a single lag or stutter the whole time which feels surprisingly good. Even though the app is still in development, using this app is already super relaxing and fun.
If boring is calming to you. Than this is a visually pleasing way to be bored. Meditation is irritating to me rather than restful *ADHD/AUTISM have something to do with it I suspect*🤷🏼♀️ but the visuals are clean and the sounds reflect the environment in a non intrusive way.
Relaxing Breathing Sessions. The breathing exercises are so varied and keep things interesting with voice guide. Interacting with the creatures around me during a session is such a nice touch. Plus, the UI/UX is friendly, clear, and super easy to navigate.
