Calm launches family plan for six people

Calm

If you want your meditation and mindfulness practice to extend to your family and other loved ones, you can now avail yourself of Calm's new family plan. It supports up to six accounts. In the US, it costs US$99.99 a year (around CA$125). As with family plans on other services, each profile will remain private to each user. So, sessions, stats, check-ins, and additional personal information of the individual users won't be viewable to other members.

The plan gives you access to Calm's whole content library, including gratitude and mood check-ins, sleep stories, hundreds of guided meditations, and more. Calm decided to add this tier after receiving feedback from its users. It was supposedly the top requested feature from the app's users.

You'll also get suggestions like a recommended activity and Premium content to help you decide what's best for your body and what workouts will be the most efficient.
