Our verdict

Relax & Rest Guided Meditation holds an exceptional 4.8-star average across 922 App Store ratings and ranks #64 in App Store search results for "meditation". This is a data-driven review compiled from its store listing, pricing, and user-rating profile — we have not yet completed hands-on testing, and a full editorial review is planned.

Data-driven review: this page is compiled from App Store data — the app’s real rating average and count, pricing, search ranking, and the developer’s published description (quoted, not paraphrased). We have not yet hands-on tested this app; a full editorial review is planned. Our hands-on-tested picks are marked throughout. Unsponsored, no affiliate influence.

Relax & Rest Guided Meditation, developed by Meditation Oasis, is a meditation app that currently holds an exceptional 4.8-star average across 922 App Store ratings — a smaller app still building its audience.

Its App Store listing describes it this way: “Enjoy the deep relaxation, stress relief and benefits of meditation with the Meditation Oasis® Relax & Rest app.” As with all listings, that is the developer's own framing — useful for understanding what the app aims to be.

This review is compiled from App Store data — the rating profile, pricing, ranking, and the developer's published description — rather than hands-on testing. We flag that openly: it tells you what the data supports, and our full editorial review will go deeper.

Pros & cons

What we like

  • An exceptional 4.8-star average across 922 App Store ratings — real users rate it well.
  • Simple one-time price ($1.99) with no forced subscription at download.
  • Ranks #64 in App Store search for "meditation" — genuine visibility in its category.
  • Available since 2010, with an established presence on the store.

What we don’t

  • We have not yet hands-on tested this app — this review reflects store data, not editorial experience.
  • A paid download means no free trial of the experience first.
  • Smaller user base than the category leaders, so the rating sample is limited.

Best for / avoid if

Best for

  • People browsing beyond the big names in the meditation app category
  • Users who weigh real App Store ratings heavily (4.8 stars, 922 ratings)
  • Those who prefer one-time purchases over subscriptions

Avoid if

  • You want a deeply vetted, hands-on-tested pick — see our editorial reviews of Calm, Headspace, Insight Timer
  • You need clinical or therapeutic support — no consumer app provides that

What Relax & Rest Guided Meditation is

Relax & Rest Guided Meditation is a meditation app for iOS by Meditation Oasis, first released in 2010.

In the developer's words: “Enjoy the deep relaxation, stress relief and benefits of meditation with the Meditation Oasis® Relax & Rest app.”

Where Relax & Rest Guided Meditation sits in the category

By the numbers: an exceptional 4.8-star average across 922 App Store ratings, ranking #64 in App Store search for "meditation". That makes it a smaller app still building its audience.

Store ratings are not the whole story — they skew positive across this category — but a large sample at 4.8 stars is a meaningful signal that existing users find it does what it promises.

What the listing emphasizes

“Enjoy the deep relaxation, stress relief and benefits of meditation with the Meditation Oasis® Relax & Rest app.” — that is the pitch, in the developer's own words.

We quote the listing rather than paraphrase it so you can judge the developer's claims for yourself. Our hands-on editorial review, when published, will test those claims.

Where Relax & Rest Guided Meditation falls behind

Editorial vetting. Unlike Calm or Headspace, we have not yet tested Relax & Rest Guided Meditation hands-on.

Transparency of in-app pricing. App Store listings often reveal subscription costs only after download — check the in-app purchases section of the listing.

Brand ecosystem. The category leaders pair their apps with large content teams and published research; smaller apps rarely match that depth.

Relax & Rest Guided Meditation vs. the category leaders

The meditation app category is anchored by Calm, Headspace, Insight Timer — all of which we have reviewed editorially, hands-on.

Relax & Rest Guided Meditation's case rests on its user-rating profile (4.8 stars, 922 ratings) and its one-time $1.99 price. The leaders' case rests on vetted content depth and track record.

A sensible approach: read our editorial reviews of the leaders first, and try Relax & Rest Guided Meditation if its specific angle appeals — App Store ratings this positive usually mean the core experience delivers.

Bottom line

Relax & Rest Guided Meditation earns an exceptional 4.8-star average across 922 App Store ratings — real users like it. Until our hands-on review lands, treat this page as an honest data profile: strong signals, store-verified facts, and clearly marked limits.
