Developed by clinical psychologists, it delivers safe, effective, and quick results with guided VR exposure therapy and coping strategies. Why download oVRcome? If you have a phobia that stops you living life the way you want to, oVRcome makes it easy for you to learn powerful skills that help manage your reactions and lessen that heart-beaty, stomach-churny feeling you get when you’re terrified of something. Once you’ve mastered some skills you can use to calm yourself down when you’re anxious, you’re guided into exposure therapy - the global gold standard in treating phobias. This means, you’ll be in an immersive environment with your fears, but they can’t harm you because they’re not actually there. Now you can practice calming down and conquer your fears in the privacy, convenience, and comfort of your own home! oVRcome can be accessed via a subscription that is a fraction of the cost that you would spend visiting a clinician in real life. Whether it’s a fear of spiders you feel is becoming more obvious, or worries about how to talk to people and be appropriately social; oVRcome can help bring more calm into your life. Working on your mental health can be difficult because psychologists, therapists, and counsellors can be very expensive. They also often have waiting lists a mile long. With oVRcome, you’ll be guided to positive, permanent change at a minimal cost. oVRcome has been developed in a clinical setting, backed by a robust body of academically accepted, evidence based, peer reviewed literature. It encapsulates the inner workings of psychological theory and proven methodology, delivered in a user friendly, intuitive, and calming package.

I really want this to work! Wish I could view this part online! ### 4/5 — 4 stars *2026-01-21* The actual video playback can be a little shaky at times, pretty good app overall ### 5/5 — So helpful!! *2025-12-04* This app has really helped me with my fear of flying. I really appreciate all the information and breathing exercises and I love how they allow you to work your way up from driving to an airport to turbulence. I used it every day for six weeks before a long flight and had almost zero anticipatory anxiety and I handled the flight well. I’m impressed. I asked them for additional videos and they said more are coming. I am going to stick with this! Also, I think some of the negative reviews on here are fake or these people are negative for no reason. The videos are very clear and this does provide exposure therapy - without having to get on a plane. My experience is extremely positive. ### 5/5 — Fear of mountain driving *2025-11-26* The bottom line is that this VR app worked for me. It empowered me to overcome a late-in-life fear of driving on mountain roads. I drove mountain roads in Pennsylvania on an average of 3,000 miles per year over a period of 25 years without any anxiety. Then, in 2023, I climbed up to the (Anasazi) Cliff Palace in Mesa Verde, Colorado and came close to having a panic attack. I tried but was unable to drive the main road out of the park as the high elevation overlooks visible around the curves was unnerving. Thereafter, I experienced anxiety on any road or highway that entailed long views and drop offs - this included Interstate highways equipped with guardrails. This anxiety continued even when I was a passenger. I began using this App in May of this year for a period of four months. In September, during a visit to New Mexico, I experienced no anxiety on some of the mountain roads but I wasn't fully convinced of the success of the oVRcome program. So, last week (November) I decided to test it. The mountain road I chose turned out to be very narrow with non-stop hairpin curves and switchbacks, steep drop offs, no berms and no guard rails. I drove about 4 miles and then 4 miles back down. My anxiety did increase over the drive but at no time did I have the unrelenting feeling that I was powerless to keep from driving off the road and over the cliff. This is why I say oVRcome worked for me. I credit my success to its combined education, especially on self-talk and breathing which I employed while driving, with the VR videos that must have worked on my subconscious mind. One last comment: be persistent in your use of the app. Oh, and don't climb up to see the Cliff Palace. ### 5/5 — Very helpful *2025-11-24, version 1.77.0* 3 members of my family have used this app and all found it really helpful - I used it for heights (and jumped off a high diving platform), one child for dogs (we now have a pet dog) and another child for needles (he had an immunization recently with no fuss). The app is easy to use, the modules aimed at children are really educational and kid friendly, and we all got results that we are very happy with. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-11-17* I tried to set this up with my own VR headset. But the button to adjust the settings does not work in the app. I want a refund now because I cancelled the app after one hour of not being able to use it. Maybe this would work with the headset they provide. It sure didn’t work with my headset. ### 1/5 — Great when it works *2025-10-17* It seems to be helping but… The app hangs and requires deleting then reinstalling. It even requires me to turn off the phone to get it to release control of the phone. ### 3/5 — App keeps crashing *2025-04-24* Great idea, however the app keeps crashing and after purchasing the monthly subscription, the app crashed resulting of closing the application. Next time when I attempted to login , it stated I don’t have active subscription and offered me to buy it again. **Developer response:** Thank you for your review and for sharing your experience. We're really sorry to hear about the app crash and subscription issue — that’s certainly not the experience we want for our users. We hope you reached out to us at support@ovrcome.io and that our team was able to assist you promptly. We always strive to resolve any issues as quickly as possible and get users back on track without delay. Our goal is to never leave anyone hanging — but we do need to be contacted directly so we can properly investigate any suspected bugs and rule out user-side issues, such as a mismatched login email preventing access. We hope you’ve been able to continue successfully! ### 5/5 — So helpful!! *2025-02-28* This app has really helped me with my fear of flying.

My experience is extremely positive. ### 5/5 — Great app just wish it worked on meta quest. *2025-02-20* The app is amazing it has truly helped my social phobia. I used it before going to a work party at a bar and I ended up having a great time. The loading time is kinda slow. Instead of opening right up it takes about 15 seconds and I found it is best to download the vr clips to my phone to help with buffering issues when streaming but it is still worth 5 stars to me because of how much it has helped me. It’s important to start with the least anxious videos before progressing so you are willing to practice it and progress. Also I really like how some of the videos have a coach talking you through the situation which you can turn off when you are ready. I would really like to see it work with the meta quest with possibly a meta quest app instead of my iPhone sliding into a vr headset. Other than that I am so thankful this is available! I haven’t found anything else like it! **Developer response:** Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We're thrilled to hear that the app helped you feel more at ease and enjoy the work party—that’s exactly what we strive for. We really appreciate your feedback on loading times and buffering, and we’ll be working on improvements. Regarding the Meta Quest, we're definitely looking into making it compatible, though we don’t have a timeline just yet. Thanks again for your support—it truly means the world to us!
