User Reviews
I was lucky to get into the Rayminder beta, and wow - I haven't needed melatonin in 2 months! Can't wait for the full launch!
Being a beta tester for Rayminder was a game-changer! I was skeptical about the 'Nobel Prize science' claims, but after 3 weeks of following the light reminders, I finally have energy for my morning workouts again.
Grateful to be part of the Rayminder beta family! With two young kids, I thought good sleep was impossible. The 2-minute sunset ritual became my daily 'me time'.
At my age, I didn't expect an app to help my sleep, but the Rayminder beta proved me wrong! The gentle reminders got me outside more, and for the first time in years, I'm sleeping through the night.
FAQ
How is Rayminder different from other sleep apps?
While sleep tracking apps monitor your rest, Rayminder takes inspiration from Nobel Prize-winning circadian science to help you work with your body's natural rhythms. Instead of just tracking patterns, we focus on supporting healthy light exposure habits throughout your day. Our approach is inspired by research showing that light timing may influence circadian rhythms, and many users find that consistent daily light rituals can be a meaningful part of their wellness routine. We're not about quick fixes - we're about building sustainable habits based on scientific insights.
Do I need to be outside for the reminders to work?
Not at all! Rayminder works with whatever natural light is available to you. You might capture moments through a window, on a balcony, or step outside briefly - the goal is simply building a consistent daily practice. For cloudy days, our weather-aware notifications can help guide you to available light sources. The key is developing a rhythm that works for your lifestyle. While research suggests that natural light exposure may support circadian health, we believe the mindful practice and consistency are just as valuable for overall wellbeing.
How quickly might I notice changes?
Everyone's experience is different! Some beta testers shared that they noticed feeling more mindful about their daily rhythms within the first week, with many reporting improvements in their overall sense of routine and wellness over 2-3 weeks. Research on circadian rhythms suggests that our internal clocks may respond to consistent light patterns over time, though individual experiences vary greatly. We encourage focusing on building the habit first - many users find that the routine itself becomes rewarding, and any sleep or energy improvements are a welcome bonus.
