A "Helsingborgs Dagblad" reviewer called "My Truth" one of the year's best Swedish records, praising its music, vocals, and lyrics. Although they felt that some tracks went unnoticed, the album was superior to "Robyn Is Here". Magnus Persson of "Borås Tidning" considered "My Truth" a step in the right direction and recognized Robyn's songwriting, calling "Universal Woman" one of the album's best moments. Although Persson was less enthusiastic about the Mann-produced tracks, he praised the songs by Lindström & Ekhé and Masters at Work. A "Nöjesguiden" reviewer highlighted "Main Thing" and "Electric", but criticised what they called the album's cheap production. Karolina Ramqvist of "Dagens Nyheter" also disliked the "flat" production by Lindström & Ekhé and Mann, but said that Robyn's improvement as a vocalist redeemed the album. A writer for "Dagens industri" said that "My Truth" mature sound and low-profile approach would alienate her American teen audience. "Svenska Dagbladet" Stefan Malmqvist wrote that although it was an impressive record, "My Truth" was not engaging. Malmqvist praised the more-uptempo tracks, but felt that the album as a whole did not leave a lasting impression. In the same newspaper, Johanna Olofsson saw the album as weak and colorless but better-sounding when performed live.
