User reviews

CBT at its finest

This cognitive behavioral therapy app is thoughtfully designed and just works the way you would expect it too. It includes a mood tracker which is a nice feature to help me stop overgeneralizing. The new learning tracks, CBT exercises and quick capture are ways to help me improve my knowledge to become the best version of myself. The thought dump feature is great and the beta ai perspective feature is pretty cool and helps me find distortions in my thinking patterns I wasn’t considering. And of course the new widgets are very helpful and great to look at. Thank you for making this app! I highly recommend to anyone new or seasoned in CBT techniques and practices.

exactly what I was looking for

I haven't actually used this yet but after opening and exploring around the app I could not be more pleased, it has everything I was looking for to be included and more 🥹 in addition to the thorough and clearly guided entries I was excited to see a thought dump feature as well, and the explanations of all the thought distortions are amazing and extensive. I never write reviews but I am so happy with this app and I can't wait to put it to use :)

Love the new update!

This app is great and it just got even better with the latest update. A bunch of new features which I really wanted. Thank-you!

NOT simple

it’s VERY ridged

its aggravating and far too complex and its not clear what it wants in each step

you think it wants 1 thing but then the next step makes it clear you did it wrong

Response from developer

Thank you for sharing your experience. I’m sorry the steps felt unclear — the app is meant to make CBT simple and supportive, not frustrating. I truly value your feedback and will keep it in mind for future updates. If you’d like to share more about what felt confusing, I’d love to hear from you at support@squeakbyte.com. And if this app isn’t the right fit, I hope you find one that supports your needs well.

This app has helped me. And I wish it has Chinese version

This app has helped me deal with my fear and depression when i'm in a hospital waiting for a surgery. I hope it to has multi-language versions, in my case Chinese. My mom has been diagnosed with cancer, I want her to be happy for the rest of her life, but she doesn't understand english. I would appreciate it if the interface of and texts in this app can be set to other languages. Then i can get her download this app. I can do the Chinese translation work, as a volunteer.
If you're going to do this, you can contact me. I will check the latest reply regularly. Thanks.
