Best mental health app I’ve ever used

This is probably the only app review I’ve ever done. I’ve been using this for 2 days and I can already see a significant difference in my wellbeing overall. This app is worth its weight in gold. I’ve always had a hard time journaling or staying consistent with it, but this app makes it feel like you’re checking in with a friend or a therapist twice a day. It’s extremely insightful, forces you to dig deeper to the root of your feelings and if you’re not accomplishing something you could be to make yourself better, it’ll bring that to light to help you do more of the things that will improve your mental health and well being. I can’t stress enough how worth it this app is. I will definitely be a continued user after the free trial is up! Thank you for developing such an incredible tool. I fully believe this is something that could replace a therapist in the long term for a lot of people and it’s way less money than paying upwards to $150 a session for someone that you may not connect with, or feel like is being fake or bias.

Incredible

My friend mentioned this app while it was in beta.

It has helped me so much just this week with a lingering problem, got me thinking in new ways that never crossed my mind before. I upgraded to premium because I love having a voice speaking to me which made it extra personal.

It’s so interesting to look back at previous entries from months ago and see how the app have helped me change aspects of my life when I had doubts or anxiety.

Thank you 🌹🌹

Extremely helpful form of self therapy.

I usually never use subscriptions in apps, but I went for it this time and didn’t regret it at all. This is a very helpful tool if you’re struggling. The AI is helpful and gives more than basic lukewarm advice. Love this app!

I have never fallen in love with an app so fast

I feel like I am always on the hunt for the perfect Journal app or productivity app or just app that will somehow enhance my life in a real way. I feel so grateful that I came across this Instagram ad and I cannot say enough good things about it. Thank you for creating this app. It has truly changed my life. it was done so thoughtfully and so well that I truly believe if everyone spent just five minutes with it, their lives would also change and would be a better place. Eternally grateful for the minds that created this and have been able to take loads off my shoulders.

Best thing ever

I have never written a review before, but I feel so drawn to do so for this app! It is truly life changing, and the future. As a true believer in therapy, I see so much potential to create good with this platform. The title may sound like a sex toy, but it is so misleading. This has quickly become my go to journaling software, as I am not just talking to myself, but receiving meaningful feedback and questions to think more about my feelings.

The most amazing app I have ever had.

I was just looking for an app that I could journal in and I found a whole therapist. Journaling never felt so one sided until I had this app. I have never realized so much about myself and what’s going on inside and why until the feedback from the AI. It’s like I have a therapist sitting next to me. I cry everytime I write in this journal. It helps me through everyday. I have never been so grateful for an app. I have such a problem with anxiety and actually going to a real therapist. This not only helps me with that but it helps me get the courage to actually start going. I have seen such a change in my thinking and my thought about myself.

App for Mac has a major issue...

I've used Rosebud for over a year now and I LOVE it; however, I just got an iMac (desktop) and for some reason, when I click on the settings icon, it says, "Cannot read property 'length' of undefined." This issue makes it impossible to change any sort of settings and it's extremely frustrating. I haven't checked to see if it does the same thing on my Macbook, but the issue doesn't seem to carry over into the iPhone app; I'd just prefer to use my desktop as it's easier to type on and keeps me motivated to write more.
If there is a way to fix this issue, I'd love to know so I can change my rating back to 5 stars. I know this is also a new app since Rosebud was only a URL based site until recently, so I'm sure not all the bugs are kinked out, which is understandable... just irritating.

I wish this app existed years ago

This app is absolutely incredible. My therapist recommended it to me to use for journaling in the time between our sessions, and its AI functionality not only propels it to excellence as a responsive journal that summarizes your thoughts, but makes it also feel like an actual therapist in your pocket with the way it validates your feelings and thoughts, gives endless suggestions to work on whatever issues you may suffer from, stores overarching themes of your issues to memory and refers to information you had given in prior prompts, and even warns you about potentially problematic thought processes that you say. I’m so happy that I was recommended this app at a time I really needed it, and I plan to tell as many people as I can about it!

Game changing

Before this app, I really struggled with rambling on in my journaling and not knowing how to move into a different direction with what I was trying to go after it’s nice to be able to have almost like an outside perspective through AI to help guide me to bigger in my feelings. I have ADHD and find it super helpful to know that I can just hit a button to help. Read direct or navigate through a conversation instead of me getting lost in my thoughts while I’m writing. have used this software for almost a year now and I can say it’s the best implementation of AI I’ve seen since AI has come out.

Counseling hack!

Rosebud feels so affirming and helps me find the bigger questions behind my thoughts, and is so helpful at giving thought provoking questions. I feel it is transforming my writing, and helping me heal, and feel supported by an all knowing source of information!
