I can't speak for meditation apps in general, but Headspace managed to introduce millions to meditation. They have a bunch of guided meditations for beginners, but as you progress the amount of guidance is gradually reduced.

Headspace certainly helped me pick up meditation again after a decade long hiatus, in part because of their excellent & gentle progression.

Granted, it's a bit silly to keep paying for a daily 30 minutes of silence.
