While Tamara has written and recorded most of the meditations within Calm, many of our sessions have also been recorded by John Armstrong for users who prefer a male voice.
If a meditation offers multiple voice options, you can easily switch to your preferred narrator right from the playback screen!
⚠️ Not All Meditations Have Multiple Voices
Please note that not all meditations offer multiple narrators. If you follow the steps below and do not see the narrator options, that specific session is currently only available in one voice.
How to Switch Narrators
To change the voice during a session:
Start your chosen meditation in the Calm app, such as 7 Days of Calm
Swipe up on the session player at the bottom of your screen to expand the playback menu.
If multiple narrators are available for that specific session, you will see options to switch between Tamara and John.
Simply tap the name of the narrator you would like to listen to.
Note: The ability to switch between narrators is currently only available on the Calm mobile app, and cannot be done on the Calm website.
