Thread: iPod/iPhone app that made me lucid last night!

Hey johns56469

First off, clever how your name has 69 in it.

Second off, congrats on meeting the crew from incpetion. That is unreal i wish i could. maybe tonight
Do me a favour, try to go into a dream within a dream within a dream. Im sure its possible.

BTW, I just got that app and will try it tonight

Haha I didn't even realize that... And I'll try but it might be a little unstable with that kind of depth

I'll get it, but I think I am too scared to try it. Hearing stuff while I sleep really freaks me out.
My question is, do you wear headphones or do you just keep the volume up on the iPod? (my iPod has sound without the use of headphones)
I sleep next to someone, so will it bother them?

There's no reason to be scared! You don't even hear the message- your subconscious does. I personally wear headphones (although last night they fell out). If you do it without them the only thing that'll happen will be that the person next to you will experience LD's too. Happy dreaming

I tried it. It didn't help me become lucid but I had a surprisingly long dream. Maybe it's because I went to bed at about 8am after a late night that affected it. I'm going to reserve judgement until I give it a proper trial. The thing that irks me though is whenever I go to sleep I find it hard to go to sleep because I think a lot and that "This is just a dream" reminder creeps me out so I'll be sitting there thinking "oh God please go to sleep, or that thing will happen again" and then suddenly BZZZZZ "This is all a dream" and I'll be like ugh.

Kinda cute though. I also got a dream journal thing that you can add symbols to and search based on text, symbol, etc.

I recommend using earphones, and actually yes you do hear it - if you are awake. The only time you "don't hear it" is when you are actually asleep. The time between notifications varies depending on the times you set as "Sleeping from" and "Sleeping until". I sat up trying to go to sleep with the app turned on and I couldn't fall to sleep, and every 15 minutes it went BZZZZZ, and loudly I heard "This is just a dream". It freaks me out because the voice is a little mechanised and the person sounds...kind of hollow. But ignore that, it's a cute app and who knows it could work for you. I'm going to try it out again PROPERLY tonight.

I put my iPhone in a dock. It woke me up at around 6am. Then I lowered the volume, but it was still loud. Does it help using earphones instead of the iPhone speakers?
I haven't got a LD

Just bought it too - will post results in a day or so!

I tried it last night. It kept playing while I was trying to fall asleep this morning, it would say "This is a dream" and I would be like "no it is not." So later on I was dreaming and I heard "this is a dream" and I was like "no it is not." LOL, total fail. So no LDs last night.

I just bought it, I hope it works.

Didn't work for me. I never heard it go off once, and I had it set to 40, so I dunno if it's even working properly. Oh and there's no way in hell I would ever sleep with headphones in my ears. Will update again if it ever does actually work for me.

OMG that is so funny.

Johns!
Thank you so much for the tip!

I bought this app and tried it last night. And I think I had my first Lucid Dream last night

I'm quoting my dream ->

I tried to do some Reality Checks, but I couldn't move my body. When I was going to raise my hand, it feld so damn heavy. Finally I managed to raise my hand and it was invisible lol . After that, I tried to stand up and walk out of the room and this sound of the app "This is a dream" woke me up... >.<'

I'm not sure if this was a Lucid Dream, was it?

I used In-Ear Headphones so I heard "This is a dream" very clearly and loudly even though I had the volume on the lowest level. True that it was a little scary, because the sound woke me up sometimes

Hey, it's you

It sounds a bit like a lucid dream to me, especially when you said your hand was invisible. The rest of it sounded like you were a little hazy and had sleep paralysis. Keep trying

Yeah same. I didn't hear anything when I played mine either. I'm going to try and find some padded headphones.

It probably didn't play because you set a high sleep duration time. It spaces out the notifications evenly over the hours...it'd be a little stupid if it didn't. I tested it by changing my sleep duration hours to 2 and I got a notification every 5-10 minutes. If you won't sleep with earphones or headphones in/on then I doubt the app will be of much use to you

I sleep on my side. There's no way I could sleep with earphones in. It's not a matter of "won't" but "can't". I hear text messages in my sleep just fine. Even when I have my phone on vibrate. I'm actually a relatively light sleeper compared to most people. I had the volume on my phone turned all the way up and had the phone sitting on the pillow next to mine. I tested it and thought it sounded plenty loud enough, so I was surprised that I didn't hear it at all during the night. I even double checked it at one point to make sure it was set to "on" and it was. Maybe I'll have better luck next time.

I tried the application again, I have yet to hear anything. Do you leave the app running or do you press the top power button so the screen is black? All it does is send me push notifications saying "You are dreaming".

The push notifications are tied with the audio track, so as long as you see the messages when you wake up you're doing it right

I'm going to try and use it right now.
Details tommorow

I'm hearing a lot of people saying that they haven't heard the message in their dreams. You're not really supposed to physically hear them (although some people do). The point of the messages is not that YOU hear them, but that your subconscious hears them and let's you know through the dream somehow. Like what happened to me, a DC will probably convince you that you are dreaming. Don't worry if you "can't hear" the messages, just play around with the volume for a couple nights and you should be able to LD. Good luck

Seriously? I honestly never heard one of them, wow.
