App Stuck in Account Setup Loop

I downloaded the app expecting great things, as it looked really interesting. Unfortunately I can’t get past the initial account setup as it’s stuck in a loop asking for an email address and some questions, only to look like it’s setting things up and then reset to the initial page again with to no memory of previous answers.

I’ve tried uninstalling, resetting iPhone, and checking my email inbox for evidence of a new account being created. Nothing.

So, for now it’s a 1 star as I have no way of starting to use the app and have uninstalled.

Hi Rusty - so sorry you've experienced a problem getting Mettle up and running. We were aware of a glitch for some users which has now been fixed. Please do give the App another try and if you still have an issue drop us a line at hello@bemettle.com - we're here to help.

Disappointing

The app itself seems good and gives me hope that there is actually something out there that will help men with their mental health and help them with things they may not talk about. BUT I do not like the fact that I have 5 free sessions before I have to pay to use it. I do not have very much money and cannot afford this subscription so am not very happy with this. It also makes me feel like it could be like other apps I have tried that require subscriptions. I get why they have them as it takes money to keep it running but it isn’t like the co-founder hasn’t got a lot of money and they could put a couple of ads in instead of charging for the subscription.

We do however want to make sure that EVERYONE who needs Mettle can have access - which is why we offer a free subscription to those in need who cant afford it. Details for the free subscription are on our website www.bemettle.com

Disappointing

It’s heartbreaking and disappointing that this is marketed as actually caring about men’s mental health when In reality it’s just a money grabber, there are so few options available to men when it comes to our mental health and it was refreshing to see something actually geared towards us only to be hit by a pay wall I understand things cost money to develop but let’s be honest this wasn’t developed by some one with nothing it was made by a supposed advocate of men’s wellbeing, as most people are aware it’s a big step to seek help and the chances are if your taking that step your in a dark place, you see light just to have it ripped away by being told yeah we can help you it’s just gonna cost you a stupid amount each month just in case you couldn’t feel even lower, I don’t know why but I just expected better from a person of his stature

An Incredible Intervention For Mental Health

Mettle is well-designed and full of exceptional content. I’ve struggled with my mental health for over 20 years and there are techniques here that I have not encountered before. It’s making a difference for me already, and I believe if you are at the start of your journey with mental illness, Mettle could be an absolute revolution. We’re living in a time of mental health crisis, and support and appointments are hard to come by - I feel like Mettle is a resource that has the potential to avert years of chronic struggling. I’d recommend it wherever you are on your mental health journey, and the likelihood is that if it helps you overcome what you are facing, it will pay for itself many times over.

A great tool

I’ve tried a few mindfulness apps and find they are often very American or very fluffy. I’ve used mettle every day bar one for the last 43 days and can honestly say it’s far more useful and engaging than any others I’ve tried. The streak challenge makes you desire to come back and the content is relevant and engaging.

Wish the app would load.

I would rate 1 star except for the promise of this app. The app never finishes loading when I open. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled several times. I’m unable to use app during free trial. I’ve contacted support. I’ll change rating either lower or higher based on the results.

7 days into using Mettle

I am loving this men’s toolkit after a week of using it every day for between 10 minutes to 30 minutes, depending on my schedule. I look forward to some ‘me time’ every day!
Having access to an array of different exercises and techniques, that I have not practiced before, is really helping me to focus, concentrate and be more aware of my mental fitness.
Especially enjoying meditation and breath-work.

Staying mentally fit

Am I suffering a mental health issue no, have I, certainly to some degree. Do I want to again, no. I work on my fitness, just seems sensible to work on my mental fitness. It’s great to have access to a wealth of advice and I am enjoying the journey to gain more control of my future mental health.

Great find

Not being a user of calm or any of those sort of apps before, i saw an article in The Times about this and checked it out. I like the look of it and how easy it is to use. I particularly like the sleep apps , esp paul mckenna hypnosis one thur my headphones.
