Hi all,
The Shine team has had a busy 2018 and we’re excited to be launching our Android app!
We grew our community to 3M members, raised a third round of funding, moved to our first office, doubled our team, and were featured as one of Apple’s best apps of 2018. Over 30,000 people expressed interest in Android so it was at the top of our list for products to launch in the new year, and we beat our goal by a couple of days.
If you’re new to Shine, welcome! You can download our app for Android (or iOS) to access daily pep talks, set a personal goal, check in with yourself, and listen to 100+ meditation audio tracks designed to support you in prioritizing your goals, self-care, and mental health.
Along with this Android launch we also have a new set of Shine Challenges coming to you in the new year. Shine Challenges are 7-day courses focused on real-world goals—better finances, improving your nutrition, starting a side hustle—all while being kind to yourself. We’ve tapped experts in finance, nutrition, and entrepreneurship to guide you through them.

@abadesi Thanks so much Abadesi! +1 to that, and especially with a New Year starting — we tend to put a lot of pressure on ourselves to change overnight. In a recent efficacy study, we found that increased use of Shine was correlated with decreases in both anxiety and depression. Our hope is that use of our products helps people continue to hustle toward their big 2019 goals, but that they do it with self-compassion.
