Balance is a good choice if you want a highly personalised experience that adapts to your mood and goals each day. The first year is free, which is generous, but the subscription kicks in after that.

Who is Medito for?

Medito is for anyone who wants a straightforward meditation app that will always be free. There’s no personalisation engine, but there are hundreds of sessions across categories like stress, sleep, anxiety, and beginner courses. No account, no eventual paywall.

Balance offers a tailored experience but at a cost after year one. Medito offers a comprehensive meditation library that’s free today, tomorrow, and always.
