This is a game changer for support and daily encouragement. I use it daily and appreciate the functionality and design that helps me stay mindful in my journey and move toward my birth star in a way that feels realistic and not overwhelming. I am deeply grateful to the creators and believe this app will change many lives! ### 5/5 — I am pleasantly thrilled *2026-05-18* I wasn’t sure what to expect from this but it has made a huge difference. To have something available anytime and anywhere has made a difference. It’s like a therapist friend you can call anytime you need to. Give it a try for a few weeks to see if it helps. for me there was nothing to lose but I didn’t expect it to be such a game changer ### 5/5 — Most effective app for my recovery *2026-05-18* 15 years in and out of recovery. Kahani is it for me. I have tried all the things. The level of both autonomy and support is sustainably changing me. I recommend this app for all my friends whether with ED past or on the disordered spectrum, it serves the psychology of eating across genders and backgrounds. Love love love ### 5/5 — Daily partner in recovery *2026-05-18* I love how this app has helped me change my self talk and build on a solid recovery plan that works for me and adjusts as my life changes. It gives me tools and insights that help my sponsees and fellows in recovery too. It has summaries of what we work on so I can reinforce these new skills with my sponsor and therapist. ### 5/5 — Excellent and so personalized *2026-05-18* This app is changing the way I’m thinking about my body and what I eat. It’s so personalized to me and the prompts it sends feel like talking to a friend who knows me and my life and my routine. It takes feedback well and easily integrated changes to adapt to what I need. There have been several insightful statements that I have saved and repeated to myself. I would highly recommend. ### 5/5 — Great Tool in the Recovery Toolkit *2026-05-18* I think this is a wonderful app! It combines the consistency that apps like Duolingo command with “streaks” and thoughtful yet realistic challenges. The reminders ensure I’m taking active steps towards recovery. I like how you can customize the voice and challenges to your own preferences and specific journey ### 5/5 — Fantastic *2026-05-18, version 1.1.57* Great Interface. So easy to use. Amazing and original app. 5 stars. ### 5/5 — The help I'd been seeking *2026-05-18* I found Kahani when my weight loss progress stalled because of nagging habits I couldn't kick. I leaned into the help and found useful, effective techniques to distract the noise and support me through challenges. Kahani is a reliable companion to my weight loss efforts and supports the mental health aspects of this lifelong journey with positivity and encouragement. ### 5/5 — Changing my life *2026-05-18* I have failed at Noom and WW, and Kahani has already changed me in deeper ways. I am more aware, more confident. I love how personalized and adaptable it is to my needs, always keeping things new with fresh activities and reflections. Amazing. ### 5/5 — Better than therapy *2026-05-17* This app literally is changing my life. I’ve tried everything to help my relationship with food, and nothing worked until i started kahani. I feel like it actually understands me and helps me with daily progress in such a beautiful way that I feel better than I have in years ### 5/5 — What a gift! Amazing app! *2026-04-23* I can’t speak highly enough about this app. The developers are so thoughtful and well educated in the world of eating disorders and this tool is a godsend. I am so deeply grateful for it. ### 5/5 — Life saver - Game changer *2025-12-12* If there is one app you should download…let it be Kahani Health. It is your companion that is constant and supportive. No judgements. Just care. Safe and private space to grow and change. Analytical yet empathetic. It is my number 1 go-to app everyday. Changed my life. Powerful tool. Intuitive. Brilliant. Start your journey here. With gratitude to the founders and developers for this greatest gift. You make the world better. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — buggy *2026-08-20, version 2.1.23* im stuck on one onboarding screen, where it says a button is supposed to appear for the next step. but since never did, i was unable explore the app ### 1/5 — Unaffordable *2026-07-29* This tool seems absolutely amazing and well thought out I would love to be able to use it. The problem is that the subscription that is required is absolutely outrageous and not something I could ever afford so I guess I am on my own trying to deal with everything. ### 1/5 — Spent an hour spilling my guts to just get a pink ChatGPT interface *2026-05-25* It’s nothing but a chat bot. There is no plan or guidance or goals or tasks, all you do it text a bot when you feel like it. Why did I spend an hour sharing personal details in the interview for something so entirely lacking? **Developer response:** Thank you for bearing with us as we make Kahani even better. I'm so glad we got to troubleshoot with you and we're really excited you now have access to your personalized plan and goals! We'd love to offer you immediate support if anything isn't working the way you expected. Our founders are happy to walk you through everything. ### 1/5 — Useless *2026-05-22* I have been in recovery for 2 1/2 years but have started to struggle with binge eating again. I was so hoping to use this for support. Tried and tried to get this to work. I can’t get past the first page. It just locks up. I was even in touch with the developer. He keeps asking me to update it, but there is nowhere to update it from. I deleted the app and reinstalled it. Still locked up. ### 1/5 — 😒😔😏 *2026-05-20, version 1.1.59* Awful.. won’t sent email to change password for email. Tried Apple wouldn’t work ### 1/5 — Too Bad It Doesn’t Work *2026-05-14, version 1.1.53* I’d like to try the app but I can’t get beyond the first page where it asks for my name ### 1/5 — Unable to sign up/in *2026-05-12, version 1.1.53* I was really excited about this app but I can’t even sign up. The screen gets stuck with trying to sign me in. ### 3/5 — Has potential, not great yet *2026-07-23* I do think it has potential to be a pretty good app, especially since therapy is incredibly expensive and it’s good to have a companion to reach for to help you set goals and work through issues. However, as it currently is, it’s not something I would currently invest in. It also made my phone extremely hot extremely quickly (and I have a 17 pro max) so I’m wary of using it currently. ### 5/5 — Groundbreaking *2026-07-20, version 2.0.1* This is a brilliant platform to help and aid disordered eating recovery. The AI is super customisable and genuinely insightful. You can use the microphone to have a grounding conversation before after during a disordered episode. Even when you’re winning, Kahani is that to validate that. I love how it takes the focus of food and places it on addressing cognitive difficulties. ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-07-14* I have struggled for a long time to find accessible help and tool for my recovery and this app has been exactly that. It makes it easy to be able to understand better what’s going on inside and be able to be there for yourself. I wish I had this kind of help when I was a teenager and young adult, it would’ve made things a lot better. ## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — More than food *2026-07-10* This app is so thoughtfully designed. It helps you learn to understand why you turn to food, but it also helps you understand the areas of your life that you can bring in more peace. As someone who works with women who struggle with emotional eating, I love the tools that the Kahani app provides. It’s like my clients have someone with them when they are not with me that is intuitive and supportive. I highly recommend. ### 5/5 — Better than Recovery Record *2026-07-10* Recovery Record never really worked for me and I like that Kahani spends more time on the mental aspect of recovery. ### 5/5 — Helped Me Heal My Relationship With Myself *2026-05-20* I rarely write app reviews, but the Kahani app genuinely made a meaningful difference for me. What sets it apart is how personalized and responsive it feels — it doesn’t feel generic or one-size-fits-all. The experience feels thoughtful, supportive, and surprisingly human. It’s helped me become more aware of my patterns, communicate more clearly, and set healthier boundaries without feeling guilty or harsh. It has also really helped me start healing my relationship with food and my body in a way that feels compassionate and sustainable instead of shame-based. I’ve had several moments where something in the app helped me pause, reflect, and respond differently in real life. That’s been huge for my relationships, my confidence, and my overall sense of calm and self-understanding. If you’re someone trying to grow emotionally, improve communication, heal your relationship with yourself, or create healthier boundaries, I highly recommend giving Kahani a try. ### 5/5 — Great ! *2026-05-20* I have been using Kahani for about a month and really like it! It gives me great easy ways to think about my day and how to ease my stress and temptations to eat later at night. I can tell kahani to make my tasks a little harder or keep it the way it is or just get rid of things I am doing good with. Love it!! ### 5/5 — Life changing support system *2026-05-19* This app is truly incredible and ingrained in my daily routine now. Easy to use, highly effective tasks and activities and has overall changed my mindset and view towards food and my daily habits! Cannot recommend enough. ### 5/5 — Best recovery app I’ve seen *2026-05-19* Doing recovery without a support system is extremely difficult. Kahani has given me the support I need while keeping me accountable. It’s my road map through recovery. Amazing tool! ### 5/5 — So helpful *2026-05-19* This is an innovative and unique mindfulness app that supports you to work on underlying issues. Each day and week is tailored to my preferences and feedback. The daily practices are brief, calming, and a pleasure rather than a chore. At the same time, the app is available on demand 24/7 for any light chat or deep dive into a current question or whatever is on your mind. Honestly, I would recommend this tool even for people who don’t think they have issues with food or body image. ### 5/5 — Wonderful *2026-05-18* This app is specifically attuned to me. The suggestions and conversations are based on my information and issues, not generic comments loaded into an AI program. It is as if I have a therapist and supportive friend 24/7, who is happy to do its job no matter how often or what time it is. Anyone who struggles with thought loops will enjoy the changes Hanani helps her/him bring about. I have had a life coach and tried other programs, but for me, Hanani has been my favorite tool for coping. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
