5/5Happy to see I will be able to upgrade to iOS 11
This app has been a staple of my iOS experience for many years, and I'm happy to see that I'll be able to continue to use it once iOS 11 and the 64bit requirement comes out! Many Binaural/Isochronic apps don't work while music is playing, but this app still works that way, and I really enjoy using it throughout my day.

2/5Update bug, removed features, UI lame
The "update": (1) broke audio playback using my AirPods with an iPhone 7 Plus, (2) REMOVED features (all background sounds and levels, sleep timers, and (3) added a favorite label, but doesn't sort the list of sounds with favorites up top (still have to scroll through a long list of ridiculous graphics to find favorites). To workaround (1), I have to switch the audio output to the phone, start playback, pause playback, then switch audio back to the AirPods. Otherwise app UI Crashes with no sound being played (but app is still running?? Until I switch back??). For (2), there is no workaround and it is somewhat unforgivable to remove features for a paid app. It looks like the mindwave app now has the features of mindwave 2 app???? So, am I supposed to be baited to buy the other app to get the original features???

1/5Nooooo
I've used this app almost daily for at least 6 years because I was noticeably more productive using the study helper beats in addition to the trance/ambient music that keeps me focused. I continued to use it despite the old version being "incompatible" with my iPhone 6/latest iOS. Was so excited for the update, but came to find I don't have the option to use timers, and any music playing is stopped when I open the app. That was a main reason I stuck with Mind Wave 2 over other beat/tone apps, because there was no interference. The redesign is beautiful but I hope you'll be able to restore some of the old functionality, otherwise I may need to look elsewhere :(

3/5Please update!
This app helps me fall asleep as well as focus on studying! Please update the app so all of your fans can continue enjoying it! Thank you 😊 So...it's updated but as many fans have mentioned the timer and background noise options are now not available 😞 please add these options back! I might have to switch apps although this one has been my favorite for years.

5/5Background play works!!
For anyone that was having issues with music turning off when app starts...if you continue playing tone and restart music you are able to listen to both!! Glad to have it back! Use to use mindwave 2 all the time with either relaxing music and Schumann Resonance or pre-exercise tone good music mix. So happy I retried tonight.
