I don't have any specific scientific research or studies to share. I do wish someone did a study on this.
That said, it does seem to be working for a lot of people. Check out the user reviews. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/simple-habit-mindfulness-med...

The only concern for enabling in some of the non-English speaking countries is that often users give 1 stars for not having meditations translated in their languages, and that's challenging to do so quickly for a small startup, as you might understand :)
The meditation industry is growing fast, and it’s exciting to see what other companies are doing. Simple Habit is one of the only meditation platforms bringing top teachers from around the world to one place and helping teachers monetize their content. We’re continuing to scale our platform, and speaking from personal experience, it isn’t the easiest model to replicate because it requires bringing the best meditation teachers onto one platform ;) We’re aiming to become the go-to resource for meditation and mindfulness content.
Thanks for checking us out — we’ve been growing quickly since our launch in June on iOS. Now, we're available on Android and web as well. We’re excited to announce Y Combinator’s investment in Simple Habit!
One of the biggest obstacles for busy people is that they feel like they don’t have time to meditate. As a startup founder and ex-i banker, 5 minute tracks make daily meditation accessible and doable, and significantly lowers the barrier to entry. Studies show that brief meditation, even if it is just a few minutes, if practiced consistently, can have powerful benefits within a few weeks.
This is a great question! It’s true that hardcore meditators often prefer to meditate for longer than five minutes, so we do have meditations up to 30 minutes in length to cater to that. What’s interesting, though, is that even experienced meditators can see the value of a quick meditation in the middle of their day, like during their lunch break or right before an important phone call. We like to think of meditation as a more integrated practice that’s accessible anytime and anywhere, which is why we believe that 5 minutes of mindfulness can be helpful to anyone.

1. Before Simple Habit, I was actually a power user of some of other meditation apps so the benefit of a multi-teacher platform is something I stumbled upon personally. Being able to explore different voices, styles, and techniques helps users experiment with what really resonates with them. We’ve found that our users like the diversity and will often (if not always) engage with content from different teachers on the app.
2. Situation-specific meditations make it easy for users to integrate mindful moments all throughout their day. At Simple Habit, we believe that meditation helps people do more throughout their day, be more resilient, and engage more with life. Situation-specific, meditations make the benefits directly applicable to whatever they might be doing, whether they’re heading into a meeting, about to give a presentation, or going through a conflict.
3. Yes! Part of our mission is to help meditation teachers monetize on their impact and hard work.
4. We primarily vet teachers based on reputable training/credentials (many of our teachers were trained through Google’s Search Inside Yourself program and/or top universities), and the quality of their teaching experience. We’re aiming to create a high quality platform comprised of the most respected teachers in the space.
Awesome! Just curious, which country are you based in? We can look into enabling it. The only concern for enabling in non-English speaking countries is that often users give 1 stars for not having meditations translated in their languages, and that's challenging to do so quickly for a small startup, as you might understand :)
Hey there - I totally hear you. This has been a challenge for many of my new year resolutions personally, and I think this is also a challenge for those who design and build products in health & fitness space.
We're all about tackling this challenge (thus the name 'Simple Habit!'). And we do this by making meditations as simple and accessible as possible. Try out the app and you may understand what I mean!
Users also have the ability to get daily reminders to meditate at a certain time of day, and this has been quite effective.
