The app seems really nicely designed on the inside, and the introductory course is really approachable and well made. I really like it so far, though it took me weeks (literally) to actually be able to get signed up due to a string of faults - and it doesn't work at all without an account. I'll recommend it to others. If you install this, I recommend signing up manually, instead of linking your Google account - that option is still broken for me (at the time of writing anyway).

Amazing app! Love the fact that it's a not-for-profit organisation and is doing so much to become a part of the national curriculum by 2020 in Australia. What my favourite thing about the app is that it caters to a huge audience from a number of age categories, so my brother can also use it. It's great to have varied lengths within videos, which means you can listen to shorter clips when you have a busy day. Overall, a great app, no adds or in-app purchases!

Best meditation app I've tried so far. I've used Headspace & Buddhify in the past but Smiling Mind tops both. A huge range of meditations that cover a lot of approaches. The app makes it easy to form a consistent practice. I particularly like the "streak" that keeps track of how many days you've meditated in a row as well as the option to save meditations to your favourites so they're easily accessible. Sometimes a mediation may not mark as "completed" right away when finished but that's minor.
