    Custom guided sleep and wind-down practice: details

    Aura

    No listed support

    Aura: The consumer app personalizes recommendations from coach-created recordings. Its broad library includes meditation, hypnosis, prayer and breathwork, but recommendation personalization is not custom script generation. No tool for making a new personalized script and guided recording in this format was listed. Existing library recordings, recommendations and timers do not meet that creation definition. This is an assessment of the reviewed published feature scope, not an explicit vendor denial.

    Source checked . Availability can change.

    Balance

    Personalized assembly

    Balance combines prerecorded instruction in personalized meditation Plans, using answers and preferences. Its listed techniques include breath focus and body scan and its catalogue includes sleep guidance. This is not free-form generation of a new personal script.

    Source checked . Availability can change.

    Glo

    No listed support

    Glo's instructor-led catalogue and personal-collection descriptions do not list this capability. This is our assessment of the reviewed documentation, not an explicit vendor denial.
