An editorial reading of the saved reviews

One of the few mood trackers with a real CBT mechanic: you identify a cognitive trap and challenge it. It works as a therapy supplement, but widgets have been broken for over a year and period progress is only visible in the paid version.

What people use it for

Those who have done or are doing CBT therapy and want to practice the techniques on their own

What reviews praise

The step-by-step thought breakdown through cognitive traps helps where simply rating your mood does not.

What reviews complain about

Widgets have been broken for over a year; mood analytics for a given period is locked behind a paywall.

What users experience

4 excerpts from the breakdown. These are individual cases, not a verdict on all users.

i think u guys should not make that overall average result only for premium. thats what i downloaded it for so i could see all at once how i was feeling over the last month or week and i cant do that without paying money.

I've lost so much documentation of my life from this app. YEARS-worth. Yes, it was set to sync. I'm going back to a medium I can rely on: pen and paper.

Even though I see a therapist and work on CBT and ACT techniques, it can be difficult to remember to use the techniques during every day life. With the app I can set a reminder to check in and see how I'm feeling and challenge unhelpful thoughts. Surprisingly, there have been times where the app actually helped me work through certain thoughts.

I've been using this app for over three years and highly recommended it to my clients (I'm a therapist). The overall selling points were the simplicity of the app, icons and gratitude list. Recently they changed the gratitude list to some worthless and unnecessary prompts. Making it less effective as a tool.
