I just read online that American Express is offering a free 1-year membership for the Calm app.

Use YouTube instead. It's free and has everything you can find in all the apps like the one above combined. And more.

True but don't most of these videos have annoying ads that will suddenly blast through your ears? 😖

Gross, a slimy pom talking about my sacred home lands 🤮. You'll find the real New Zealand in my harsh southern accent.

Don't use the official YouTube app (on phone). Use a browser with ad-blocker. For example: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kiwibrowser.browser&hl=en (the browser) + https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ublock-origin/cjpalhdlnbpafiamejdnhcphjbkeiagm?hl=en (the ad-block extension). You can also install it from the browser's menu - just go to "Extensions" and search for "uBlock". Thus, if you open YouTube through Kiwi Browser - ads won't bother you anymore (videos will start instantly since there won't be any ad before starting the video - nor will you see any interruptions in between).

Annoying Ads are so late 90's (that's the only time they used to bother me 😐 - cause Netscape had no adblocker - and even the browsers that did, like Opera - were not that efficient back then).
