I’m working on Lunara AI: https://lunaraai.app

It’s a meditation app where an LLM guides you without the usual back-and-forth chat. You set your preferences up front (style, duration, focus), then it delivers a structured session end-to-end.

I have a long list of ideas and features to try, but right now I’m focused on feedback. The app is live on the App Store, and I’d love input on: • What would make you try an AI-guided meditation app (or avoid it)? • What settings matter most to you (duration, tone, technique, background audio, etc.)? • What would make the guidance feel trustworthy and not “chatty” or generic?

If you’re willing to test it, I’m especially interested in first-session impressions and what you’d change to make it something you’d actually keep using.

This is the second app that I’ve tried with an AI voice for meditation. And frankly it’s off putting. The voice is great for other settings. But when my eyes are closed and I’m focused on nothing but the voice it stands out as negative.

Now I may tolerate that if you are significantly cheaper than the alternatives but that doesn’t seem to be the case.
