App does not go beyond test phase

Unlock tab, which would allow person to start gradual exposure, does not respond. Can only keep taking the gentle/scary test over and over and not move beyond that. Pity. App has lots of potential - if only problem was solved. I emailed developer but never heard back.

This really works

I did this every day for about a week and my fear of spiders is about 50% what it was before! I’m only halfway through all the stages but it truly is effective, I had a crippling fear of spiders my whole life and when I saw a spider recently I didn’t even have a visceral reaction. Which is crazy! Exposure therapy really really works, highly recommend.

Please change

This is truly a great app. I have a huge fear of spiders, and I struggled with the gentle test. The graphics are amazing, and I believe that this app could help. It is super realistic, I threw down my phone during the scary test. The only thing, money. Please, please change this. I cannot spend on this, and my fear is getting worse. Maybe have adds, or a pro version, with extras such as learning about spider types, ect. Five star potential, not quite there.

Hi there, thank you so much for this comment! We're happy to hear that you react well to the app and might truly benefit from it to face your fear of spiders. Improvements are also in our interest, we’ll see what future developments and research will bring. For now, in comparison to an exposure training or therapy, the app really is a low-cost option to start or continue facing your fear of spiders. We hope this does not stop you to continue your training and invest in your health, all the best!

Great graphics, money?!

I started with the gentle one and it was scary but not too bad. I loved it but, I don’t have any money to spend on this. Could you add maybe like a completely free one with ads? I just cannot spend that money and my fear is so bad that I cannot do stuff if I even see a spider or am told one is there. It’s okay if you decide not too, the price is not too bad either.

Hi there! Thanks for your feedback. We're glad you might see a benefit in using Phobys to reduce your fear of spiders. For now, we're keeping the current price, as it still offers a very low-cost alternative to an exposure therapy, but understand the hurdle. See it as an investment in your health - we wish you all the best to continue facing your fear of spiders!

Way too scary

They do NOT start gently. They do not ease you in. If you’ve got a severe fear, I don’t recommend this. 😅

We now also have a gentler test in our latest update! Phobys is designed for people with a high fear of spiders. When suffering from a severe phobia we recommend using the app together with a friend or to get professional assistance. Exposure is an effective treatment for spider phobia and the app Phobys uses this to train self-exposure.
