Calm

The #1 app for Sleep, Meditation and Relaxation

Overview

Our mission is to make the world happier and healthier.

Calm is the #1 app for Sleep, Meditation and Relaxation, with over 100 million downloads and over 1.5M+ 5-star reviews. We’re honored to be an Apple BEST OF 2018 award winner, Apple’s App of the Year 2017, Google Play Editor’s Choice 2018, and to be named by the Center for Humane Technology as “the world’s happiest app”.

Launched in 2012 by Alex Tew and Michael Acton Smith, Calm was named by Apple as the 2017 iPhone App of the Year; by Google Play as an “Editors’ Choice” in 2018; and found by a major study of 200,000 iPhone users to be “the world’s happiest app” – the single app that left users feeling happiest from spending time on it.

Calm creates unique audio content that strengthens mental fitness and tackles some of the biggest mental health challenges of today: stress, anxiety, insomnia, and depression. The most popular feature on Calm is a 10-minute meditation called, ‘The Daily Calm,’ that explores a fresh mindful theme and inspiring concept each day. Calm also contains 250+ Sleep Stories (bed-time stories for all ages), plus sleep music, meditation lessons, nature sounds, Calm Masterclasses delivered by world experts, and more.

The Calm app is free to download and some free content is available, but a paid subscription to Calm Premium unlocks access to Calm’s entire content library.

The heart of Calm is digital but Calm is also expanding offline in various ways that bring more peace, clarity, and perspective into people’s busy lives. It has partnered with Penguin to publish the Calm Book; developed a natural sleep aid called Sleep Mist and has plans for so much more.
