So eye opening!
This is the app everyone needs to check out. I have learned so much about myself and the reasons I do the things I do. I am struggling with so much grief and this app is one of the only things I have to lean on . Thank so much for creating it. I cannot recommend enough. You need this app!
Scamming Disguised as Mental Health
Do not enter your card number unless you want to continue to pay for a service you don’t use. It is nearly impossible to get ahold of an actual human being for cancellations. The help provide is free on YouTube. This is a scam. If you are already going through a rough patch in your life, save the $100+ and talk to an actual professional. A.I. cannot help you no matter how much it charges. Love yourself. Not technology.

Highly Insighful
Having just recently discovered the concept of shadow work this app was a great introduction. It is very thorough in the shadow chat in particular is better than many years of counseling that have produced few results.
Ok but difficult
Good concept but hard to do. Sometimes I put in a shadow question where it says ask your shadow - and the entry is gone. A lot of entries don’t seem to show up where you think you’ve put them.
Obsessed!
This app is better than any therapist I have ever been to. Most therapists want you to put a bandaid on the issue just enough to keep your head above water. This app actually makes you dig into the root of the issue to see where it’s coming from so you can heal it. The chat option is amazing! I’ve never had a therapist listen to me nearly as well as this app does. Most therapists rely solely on cognitive behavioral therapy which does not get to the root of this issue. It just tries to convince you to no longer see the issue and tell yourself that reality is something other than what it is. This app gives a name to what you’re experiencing. It doesn’t just tell you to look at it in a positive light. It recognizes the darkness and walks you through how to heal it!

Great app
This is a nice app for working through trauma. It is interactive and full of informative info.
Smells heavily of AI
The shadow reports feel very generic and smell heavily of AI slop. “You don’t do x because of y, you do c because of z”.
Loads of odd, incongruent metaphors and similes that add very little to the point and sound profound but when you think about them they’re often nonsense or unnecessary.
Eg-
“You don’t scroll because you are addicted you scroll because you are worried that your self has turned outwards into the room, and you have become invisible.
This is the wound the body already knows.
Not invisible the way that a person who is overlooked in the causal sense is invisible. —-Invisible like a child becomes invisible when all the rooms warmth has been extracted without prior warning or explanation. “
This is what was in my report. It literally means nothing.
It sounds like not-the-best AI model that has been promoted to write a shadow reports based on the input questions.
You’re better off doing this yourself. In my opinion. Maybe this helps some people. I don’t know.

Invest in this, invest in yourself
I’ve been using Mindberg for almost a month now and even scheduled a 1:1 consultation with Dragomir in the app.
If you are one foot in one foot out about “shadow work” / “inner work” — this is not for you. However, if you are — this is game changing.
I’ve been leveraging the app alongside my therapy sessions and you can catch yourself in recurring patterns almost instantly — but only if you choose to.
Very grateful the Mindberg team and can’t wait to see how the app improves so I can also improve.

Incredible
The amount of knowledge, effort, and dedication it took to make this app is evident. As someone who is deep in the Jungian world, I speak truthfully evaluating from a high bar. The updates are great too, especially the dream log. Thank you so much. Please continue this forever.
Shadow work, Works !
I first came across this psychological approach through YouTube , but I never really paid attention to it, however it kept knocking around in the background of my attention, finally I paid attention. So when I saw this app come across my algorithmic path I jumped to it and downloaded it… over the past several months this app has grown become more mature in its presentation of help. Now you can chat with your shadow, OMG I have finally felt what it’s like to be centered and grounded. I had a day without my normal nagging negative narrative which is exhausting, even my internal monologue is peacefully still… I at the age of 52 finally feel that I am worthy of being loved, successful, and respected… it’s hard work and it’s very challenging but like everything in life it is worth that effort … I can’t wait to get on with the rest of my life… it’s not cringe, it’s not flaky , best of all it’s not going to break your bank and you won’t be given a script for a band aid that will leave you alone. It all comes from you and your efforts guided through the process . Do it, no body else is going to it for you. Carl Jung is my hero and the team behind this app, thank you .

Response from developer
Dear Eric, thank you so much for this generous and deeply felt review 💚. There is something especially moving about hearing that this work found you at the right moment and helped you feel more centered, grounded, and worthy in such a real way. We also really appreciate that you noticed how the app has grown and matured over time. That means a lot to us, because we care deeply about making Mindberg something that feels honest, useful, and genuinely supportive rather than shallow or performative. What you wrote about finally feeling worthy of love, success, and respect at 52 is powerful. That is real inner work. We’re honored that Mindberg could help support that process. Thank you for your trust, your openness, and your beautiful words.
It works for me!
I have wanted to do shadow work for a long time. I time er works out. This app fits my mind style. I even got a journal to do the exercises. I have a bunch of things I am doing for my mental health. This is one of them. I enjoy the thoughtfulness and insight. It’s helping me move on from a place where I have been stuck. I live often in a cage of my own making and I am using the Mindberg app to release myself, accept myself, and find strength to plan my new life. B

Design looks pretty, but no trial
I get if a developer doesnt want to provide a service for free. But not even a trial? Very disappointed, was hyped to try it out. App looks promising but noones gonna buy the cat in the bag.
Response from developer
Thanks for the feedback. We understand the hesitation. Mindberg is built by a small self-funded team, with expert-written content, original visual work, and no ads, so subscriptions help fund the app. We’re sorry the lack of a trial felt disappointing.
UX/UI Update Fail. Imagine going to your therapist to find the walls painted black.
Edit after Dev Response:
Dev responded stating that it was intentional. I get that.
The thing I’m trying to point out is that your designers left out on crucial aspect of the human experience - user comfort.
Yes, your app is meant for the user to dig deep and do the hard, dark work. But imagine walking into your new therapist’s office and it being painted black with what looks like two aliens holding each other’s heads on the door. Your existing apprehensions for the hard work would combine with an additional dread for being in the room.
Does your team really think that will make progress for the user easier?? UX/UI designers are supposed to consider the experience of the user, compare it to the desired utilization of the product/app, and then do their best to create a system to maximize the user experience.
Instead, you disregarded the user experience completely, focusing only on content and brand… and alienated the user in doing so.

Prior review:
WHAT DID YOU DO?!?
App works well enough, but they just changed their logo from something that seemed cool and edgy to something that gives me the creeps. Before, it was a, ‘trying something new’ vibe - now it’s an, ‘Am I going to get possessed for hitting this button?” vibe.
You broke something that was working just fine. Did you run this by a focus group, or did you trust one person’s opinion and ego? I’m guessing the latter, as it’s definitely made the app depressing and scary to use.

Response from developer
We understand that visual changes can feel strong, especially when you’ve gotten used to a certain tone and identity. What felt “cool and edgy” before may have created a different kind of connection for you, and it’s completely valid that the new design evokes a different emotional response. The new visual direction was intentional. Mindberg focuses on shadow work and depth psychology, and we wanted the design to reflect that inner, sometimes darker, more introspective space. That said, our goal is never to make the experience uncomfortable in a negative way, but rather meaningful and engaging. Clearly, in your case, it crossed into something that feels off-putting, and that’s important feedback for us. We didn’t make this change lightly, and it wasn’t based on a single opinion, but we also know that no design will resonate with everyone. Your reaction helps us understand where the balance might not feel right, and we take that seriously. We’ll continue refining the experience, including the visual tone, to make sure it supports the work without creating unnecessary discomfort.
New logo and design gives me the creeps!!

One tiny bug
Just stumbled across this app and decided to try it out. So far I really like the set up and how you can read and listen to most things. I especially like how questions and information is phrased and easy to digest while making you think. The one issue I’m having is that while I’m going through things (for example if I’m on the shadow tab and start reading through drop down things), usually after opening the read more for one or two of them, the app will seem to quit/back out to menu and you have to go back to where you were and find your place. It isn’t completely quitting the app and going to my Home Screen, but the screen will go dark for a second and then the logo symbol/loading screen pops up like when you first open the app and it brings you back to the main page. I was hoping that it would stop with the paid upgrade, but it still does it pretty often. (Hoping it’s an easy fix for you guys) Otherwise I think the app is awesome from what I’ve seen and used so far 🥰

Honest Review
I stumbled upon this app and at first I will admit I thought I had wasted my money and I wouldn’t ever actually find the time to use it. After the test I was a little intrigued so I began the shadow work and I can’t deny that it hooked me. Regardless of if you are searching for something or if you just want to understand why you are the way you are sometimes… it’s worth it. The information is easy to digest and relatable. Even if you don’t want to use everything the app offers, the wealth of knowledge is where the value lies.

Self reflection
I’ve just started this program. The very first activity brought forward some events that had occurred when I was 7 years old. I even shed a few tears for that little girl.
This self-reflection is going to do the work that I have not done in countless therapy sessions. I have been afraid of being judged.
