TIDE: Sleep, Focus, Meditation

authentic rating

People value TIDE for its minimalism and the fact that for years it covered several jobs at once: focus timer, sleep sounds, alarm, breathing, quote of the day. A recent update angered many: some free features were moved behind a subscription, the interface was bloated to look like other meditation apps, and the alarm and breathing via iOS Shortcuts broke. Plus complaints about crashes and the app not opening after the update.
