    Custom self-hypnosis audio: details

    Aura

    No listed support

    Aura: The consumer app personalizes recommendations from coach-created recordings.

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.
