### 5/5 — Thank you very much

*2025-03-04*

I gave this app 5 stars for being so helpful for my mental health. It's easy to use and the AI gives me a lot of good techniques

### 5/5 — Good AI therapy app

*2024-12-16*

I was skeptical about using an AI therapist, but this app has been better I thought. The sessions feel personalized, and I get practical advice that helps manage my stress and anxiety better. It seems to learn from your responses and adjusts so i get better suggestions

**Developer response:** Hi we appreciate your review, we're glad you've been finding it so helpful

### 5/5 — Good mental health tool

*2024-12-03*

Therapy has been hard for me to afford, but this app makes it easier to work on my mental health every day. I like sharing my thoughts and getting helpful insights

**Developer response:** We're glad to hear you've found it helpful for your mental health, thank you for the review

### 5/5 — very customizable

*2024-11-14*

i like that i can tell it what type of therapy to do

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review! Yes it's very customizable, and as a tip, you can try out different therapies by using the custom tab on the preferences section

### 5/5 — I like this app

*2024-11-07, version 1.5.6*

Helped me alot in expressing myself and dealing with my feelings during a tough time

### 5/5 — Helps my anxiety

*2024-11-03*

I've always been an anxious person and this app has been really good at keeping it down especially if I'm overthinking things. Normally I can spiral with my ruminations but using this prevents them from going out of control. So anxiety is still there but it's at a much more manageable level now I don't feel as paralyzed. Even though its ai therapy it's been so valuable for me

**Developer response:** We're very glad to hear our app has been helpful for you! Thank you for the review

### 5/5 — AI THERAPIST

*2024-10-09*

pros: easy to use - ai therapist is customizable - has a picture for me to look at so its not a plain message screen - cheap; cons: the voices could be better but i dont always use them

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review! We are working on offering more high quality voices, we appreciate the feedback

### 5/5 — Best Mental Health Tool

*2024-10-03*

I struggle with affording therapy and even finding a therapist in the first place. This has helped me becọme my own therapist and work on my mental health little by little day by day. I like having it to bounce my feelings off of and have it be analyzed in the same way a therapist would

### 4/5 — Bon mais besoin de plus d’écoute active

*2024-09-09, version 1.5.5*

La thérapie passe trop rapidement à mon goût à la phase de solutions et utilise moins de techniques d’écoute active et d’empathie. Elle est bonne pour la résolution de problèmes. Concernant l’option de thérapie cognitive comportementale, je n’ai pas senti que la thérapie m’aidait à changer mes façons de penser. Il y a plusieurs options de traitement, ce qui en personnalise l’expérience. J’aime qu’il y ait une image d’un (une) thérapeute. J’ai l’impression que l’application peut potentiellement aider à se sentir mieux.

### 2/5 — Started ok

*2024-06-05*

But then it only lets you type about 10 replies then it locks you out and tells you that you have to sign up for a paid version.

**Developer response:** Hi we have increased the amount of free replies, I hope that helps, thank you for your feedback
