Why is it so easy to sign up but so hard to cancel?
There is no button to cancel why?
I have tried the service, didn't like it. Searched for the cancel button. Its not displayed anywhere??? Only option is to contact support via email, waste my time...
The advertisement got me interested but the poor business practice left me hating.
"Cancel your subscription at anytime" but T&Cs says cancellation requests are processed in 2 business days. Very misleading. Guess I can't cancel NOW and have to wait 2 business days

Helps with focus and relaxtion
I've been using brain.fm fairly consistently for around 18 months - particularly on the days I really struggle with focus. I find myself just aimlessly 'achieving' tasks that have absolutely nothing to do with the productive work I need to be doing while sitting at my desk, then I remember to launch brain.fm. I notice a difference within around 5mins. It helps me lock in to the task I'm wanting to do, rather than mundane things that simply give me a dopamine hit. I've tried it for relaxation a couple of times - if you find the right music, it can really help. It helped massively the first time, and the second time not as much (but I noticed I wasn't vibing with the music / had some distractions that time as well). I recently reached out to support for help with something and they came back super promptly and resolved my issues. Great service!

Thanks so much for this! Love hearing that Brain.fm helps you snap out of those "dopamine hit" tasks and actually lock in—18 months strong! For relaxation, it can take a bit of experimenting to find the tracks that click for you. And we'll definitely pass the love to our support team! 💙

Brain.fm has been useful for focus sessions, especially when I’m working for long stretches. The science behind it actually makes sense to me, and in practice it works better for my focus than other apps I’ve tried, like Calm.

It's work well to me personally
Hi, I have been using Brain FM for around 2 months now. I can say it feels greater than before, but it isn't as superior as I thought, which is understandable. However, the details are a bit difficult to understand, particularly in the activities. Most of them are custom mixes, but I don't understand how two different categories (such as focus and sleep) can be mixed. Another thing I love is how some music sounds really appealing without interfering with my studying.

We'd love to better understand your question about the custom mixes and categories. Would you mind sending us a screenshot of what you're seeing to support@brain.fm? That way we can take a look and give you a proper explanation of how it works.
Thanks again for the feedback — it really helps us improve!

Love it
I almost NEVER leave reviews, but BrainFM honestly surprised me in the best way. I have ADHD and spend a lot of time working behind a computer. Last year I bought the Bose QuietComfort Ultra, and for almost a year I’ve been working in complete silence with noise-cancelling on because I could never properly focus with music on Spotify.
One thing I love is that I don’t have to think about what to listen to. You just click your mood or situation, and it plays endless background music that keeps your attention on the task instead of pulling you toward the music itself.
I’ve been using BrainFM for a few days now, and I genuinely look forward to getting back into “the zone” with their focus beats. I even use it at the gym (Focus > Motivation), and for work I switch between Focus > Light Work and Deep Work.
Got the free trial but i'm keeping the year subscription for sure!

Hey! Thank you so much!
This review made our day! We appreciate you taking the time to leave your feedback and it means even more to us that this isn't even something that you usually do.
Your experience perfectly captures why Brain.fm exists.
Many people with ADHD find regular music too distracting - it pulls attention rather than supporting it.
Our music is scientifically designed to work WITH your brain's attentional systems, not compete for them. That's why it feels different from Spotify playlists.
We love that you're using different modes for different tasks (Deep Work vs Light Work, and Focus for the gym!).
We'd love to have you test out our new workout tracks. Please message at support@brain.fm to get access.
That flexibility is exactly how Brain.fm is meant to adapt to your day.
Thank you so much for sharing. Happy listening!

I have been using Brain.FM for over 3 years
I have been using Brain.FM for over 3 years now, and it has been a game-changer. I will have it playing in the background using the Deep-Work mode for all kinds of meetings and focus time.
I see a drastic improvement in how I work when using it compared to using Spotify.
The music is forgettable but you kind of want it that way. It keeps my mind focused without distracting me with lyrics or harsh beats.
It also includes weekly streaks where the longest I have used it, at least once a week, is 50 weeks (so close to 1 year).
Highly recommend anyone to try their free trial out, just make sure to cancel if you don't enjoy it.

Hi Scott,
Wow, 3+ years and nearly a year-long streak - you're a Brain.fm superstar! 🎉
It's incredible to hear how Deep Work mode has become such an essential part of your meetings and focus time. Stories like yours are exactly why we do what we do. The fact that you notice such a clear difference compared to regular music validates our neuroscience approach.
Thank you for being such a dedicated member of our community and for sharing your experience. Here's to hitting that 52-week milestone!

Music is good, the price isn't
The music is good, although I don't know if it really does increase concentration to the extent they claim it does. I had a 30 day trial and I was finding it very helpful for studying however I really wish they had an app for windows and not just mobile/mac because using a web player isn't great. It's really good and I did find it useful however there is no way I'm going to fully subscribe as it is WAY to expensive for what it is. I would recommend it if the price was lower. Unfortunate as it is a really cool concept. Also - you can basically get the same experience on YouTube with premium or an adblocker for a cheaper price and way more advantages.

Feel very focused and mindful
I am actually really enjoying brain.fm. I can really get into the zone when wanting to concentrate/work/study. It's very simple to start, simply press play and goes on indefinitely, so decreases time wasting finding music. Also, the 40-minute timer intervals is a great addition to help give you breaks if you want.

Hi Alex,
Thank you for the wonderful review! It's fantastic to hear that Brain.fm helps you get into the zone so easily. You're absolutely right about the 40-minute timer - it's based on research about optimal focus sessions and natural break patterns.
We love that you find it simple to just press play and go. That's exactly the experience we aim for - no friction between you and deep focus!
Thanks for being part of our community!

Hi there,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're sorry to hear Brain.fm didn't work well for you and that you experienced discomfort.
If you're experiencing headaches, we recommend discontinuing use immediately. Headaches during focus sessions can sometimes occur due to dehydration - staying well-hydrated before and during sessions often helps. They can also result from high volume settings or individual sensitivity to certain frequencies.
Brain.fm is a science-based tool developed with grants from the National Science Foundation and validated through peer-reviewed research. We're transparent about our technology and methodology, which you can review in our published studies.
If you're within our refund window, please contact support@brain.fm and we'll be happy to process a full refund. We want all our users to have a positive experience, and we respect that our product may not be suitable for everyone.
Best regards,
Ingrid from Brain.fm
Gave me a headache
Unfortunately the music gave me a headache every time I listened to it. It was a real bummer. I also didn't find any music I liked to listen to and some of it sounded a bit spooky. I was hoping it would help but unfortunately not me.

Hi Paula,
we're really sorry to hear you experienced headaches while using Brain.fm.
Here's something interesting we've learned from many users: headaches during focus sessions are often a sign that Brain.fm is actually working too well! When you get deeply focused for extended periods, it's easy to forget basic things like drinking water or taking breaks. Dehydration from prolonged concentration is actually one of the most common causes of these headaches.
A few tips that might help:
-Keep water nearby and take sips regularly while working
-Use the Pomodoro timer feature (if available) or take breaks every 25-50 minutes
Start with shorter sessions to build up your focus stamina
As for the "spooky" sound - that's great feedback! Different modes have very different sonic textures. We have everything from ambient soundscapes to more melodic options, so the one you tried might just not have been your style.
If you'd like to give it another shot with these tips in mind, or if you want help finding a mode that better matches your taste, our team at support@brain.fm would be happy to help you dial in the perfect experience.
Best,
Ingrid

Although I didn't use the service, I can confirm the customer service is amazing, and extremely reliable :)
Honestly, I forgot to use the service in my trial period. One day, I remembered about it because I was charged for the anual plan, I just had forgotten to cancel my free-trial subscription. I contacted the team right away. They replied very fast, and refunded me for the subscription, which I had cancel right before writing them. Although I didn't use the service, I can confirm the customer service is amazing, and extremely reliable :)

Hi Sarah, thank you so much for this incredibly kind review! We're thrilled that our team could help you quickly and smoothly, even though the situation wasn't ideal.
Here's the thing though - we're a bit sad you never got to experience what Brain.fm actually does! Since you had such a positive experience with our team, we'd love for you to try the app that we're all so passionate about.
Our scientifically-designed music uses neural phase-locking technology to help you focus, relax, or sleep better - and we have research published in Nature Communications Biology backing it up. Many users say it's genuinely transformed their productivity and focus.
If you're open to it, we'd love to offer you an extended free trial to actually test it out - no strings attached. Please email us at support@brain.fm mentioning this review, and we'll set you up. We think you'll understand why we're so excited about what we've built!
Thanks again for spreading the word about our customer service. Hopefully we can show you the full Brain.fm experience soon!

I tried Brain.fm hoping the music would help me focus, but I honestly didn’t find it effective or enjoyable. The sound felt repetitive and distracting rather than calming or motivating.
What really frustrated me, though, was the billing experience. I attempted to cancel my free trial before it ended, but my card was charged almost immediately as I was canceling. It felt like the system was designed to make cancellation difficult or delayed just long enough to trigger a charge.
I reached out expecting a quick fix, but I’m still disappointed in how it was handled. Between the underwhelming music and the poor cancellation experience, I can’t recommend Brain.fm.
Follow up- They did respond quickly to my email. In the end, they did fix the issue.

I used to waste a LOT of time on YT
I used to waste a LOT of time on YouTube at the start of every activity in order to find the right kind of music. I realized today after I reached a 16-week streak that I never want to go back to that, I must have saved at least 1-2 hours a day, which is 7-14 a week, and after 16 weeks, that's at LEAST 112-224 Hours of my life back. Thank you brain.fm, for giving me back 20 days of my life already. You have a lifelong customer.
