## What is Mente?

Mente helps independent psychologists and psychotherapists spend less time piecing together schedules, notes, follow-ups and payments and more time focused on their clients.

START THE DAY KNOWING WHAT NEEDS ATTENTION

See today’s sessions alongside notes still to complete, follow-up tasks and unpaid appointments. Schedule one-time or recurring sessions, keep each client’s fee and payment status close at hand, and find records quickly when you need them.

ARRIVE PREPARED FOR EACH SESSION

Before a session, revisit the latest note, current objectives, relevant life events and anything agreed for follow-up. Afterwards, write structured clinical notes, keep a clear history of revisions and connect the next steps to the client’s plan.

KEEP EACH CLIENT’S WORK CONNECTED

Maintain profiles, intervention plans, objectives and tasks without scattering information across separate tools. With Mente Pro, the Complete Client Timeline brings sessions, notes, plans, tasks, objectives and life events into one chronological view.

PREPARE MESSAGES AND SEND THEM WHEN YOU CHOOSE

Write an appointment message, check the wording, then choose the app you want to send it with. Mente never sends messages automatically. With Pro, you can use custom message templates, local reminders and a record that a message was prepared without storing its contents in that history.

You can also share an appointment as a calendar file without turning on sync.

YOUR PROFESSIONAL RECORDS REMAIN UNDER YOUR CONTROL

No separate Mente account is required. Core records remain available on your iPhone or iPad, and Mente does not host them on servers managed by the developer. Sensitive information stored locally receives additional on-device protection, while access to the app uses the security available on your device.

Create a password-protected backup files. You can also export readable CSV files and client PDF dossiers. Once a file is exported or shared, its protection depends on where you choose to save or send it.

CORE TOOLS AND MENTE PRO

Client records, scheduling, notes, plans, tasks, payment tracking and manual backup remain available without a subscription. Mente Pro adds encrypted backup in your iCloud account, Apple Calendar sync, the full note-template library, custom note and message templates, the Complete Client Timeline, session preparation, follow-up for unfinished notes and local message reminders.

If Mente Pro expires, your local records remain available. Manual backup and restore still work; syncing new changes with iCloud and Calendar pauses until Pro is reactivated.

Mente is a professional organization and documentation tool. It does not provide diagnoses, treatment recommendations or emergency services.

PERMISSIONS & PRIVACY

Contacts are used only for client import. Calendar access is used only for Calendar Sync. 
Notifications are used only when allowed. 
Device authentication is used for entire App Protection. 
Optional iCloud access is used only for automatic backup and sync.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.25.4 — 2026-08-20

Mente 1.25.4 adds complete French and Spanish support throughout the app. 

Before-session preparation now presents Life Events in clearer, more accessible rows with localized dates and improved VoiceOver guidance.

### 1.25.2 — 2026-08-17

Mente 1.25.2 makes Mente Pro screens easier to understand. 
Contextual upgrade screens now name the action you were trying to use and show distinct benefits for note and message templates, complete client history, between-session work, reminders, Calendar Sync, and encrypted iCloud Backup.
Heatmap threshold labels are easier to read while preserving their color indicators, and compact action buttons adapt better to larger text.

### 1.25.1 — 2026-08-13

Fixed a bug that caused the close buttons to have a smaller tap area

### 1.25.0 — 2026-08-12

Mente 1.25.0 adds Life Events, a simple way to record important changes in a client's life without making clinical notes more complicated. You can add an event from the client record or a saved note, include a date and optional context, mark it as ongoing or for future review, and return to its linked note when needed.

Life Events are free to create, edit, link, delete, and review chronologically. 

Chronological views for notes, tasks, and plans are also free. 

With Mente Pro, Complete Timeline brings all client records together and relevant events appear in before-session preparation. 

Existing communication history remains readable after Pro expires. 

Life events can be included in client dossier PDFs and are protected in encrypted iCloud and `.mente` backups compatible with iOS and Android.

This update also refines the native client and note flows and updates the in-app legal documents.

### 1.24.0 — 2026-08-11

Mente 1.24.0 brings the full session workflow into one clear, time-saving experience. 

Today Focus now prioritizes preparation for upcoming sessions, tasks, post-session documentation, unpaid appointments, and message reminders without crowding the Home screen. Preparation can open the latest note, active intervention plan and objectives, and relevant tasks, while post-session actions clearly record completed, cancelled, or missed appointments.

Clinical notes now support structured templates, automatic locking when saved, deliberate reopening, and a compact newest-first version history. Previous versions remain available without duplicating the note in client lists, and unchanged revisions are not retained. The template builder supports up to six ordered text sections with custom titles, reusable initial text, and consistent smart tokens.

Message Templates now has its own Settings library. You can preview built-ins, personalize one into a new encrypted custom template, choose defaults, and keep appointment messages consistent. Location and amount are included by default when relevant, while the optional calendar file stays off until selected. Messages are still reviewed and shared manually.

Backup verification can check a protected iCloud backup without restoring it. Calendar Sync, Recovery Key, reconnection, conflict handling, and access after Pro expiry are clearer and safer. A new Getting Started checklist guides the first client, session, note, and task, with optional Activity Details for location, rates, hours, and notifications.
