Very disappointing
I really liked this app and the very knowledgeable and professional content. I was even happy to accept the paid for subscription but I have been unable to access it despite having a subscription and they do not reply to emails.
Rubbish
Won’t even let me sign in
Great overall app
This app has so many great resources covering sleep, anxiety, long covid and procrastination. Within each topic there’s reading guides and listening guides. They also do online workshops / webinars which are really good. Would highly recommend.
Stops panic/anxiety rapidly
This app is like having a pocket therapist. The search feature is excellent and the bite sized chapters of the audio guides makes listening super convenient.
Very impressed that the app content is consistently growing and evolving and that featured guides often correspond to dates in the mental health calendar.
It works as a regular stress nullifier and as an interesting and ever expanding resource into one’s own psyche.

Oh no!
I have loved this app for years and when they started to charge me I thought, ok it’s worth it. But oh no! They have updated the app and changed it. The mindful body scan was a really relaxing sounding man and it’s now a woman. I know if you have just downloaded the app this will not matter to you but it’s just not the same anymore. Gutted because I will deffo cancel my subscription now.

Helps me manage my mental health
Excellent audio guides for managing my anxiety at work.
Used to be better
Once upon a time I would have given this app 5 stars but now I can only give it two.
This was my favourite mindfulness app for many years until the major overhaul ruined the entire thing :(
I mostly just used the guided mindfulness meditations. They were simple, practical exercises, narrated in the most calming relaxed voice imaginable. They have been a huge part of my recovery from severe depression and anxiety over the past 5 years. Probably saved my life a couple of times.
Occasionally I used the thought reframing tools but not often… I find that stuff a bit too prescriptive.
Anyway, I’m bitterly disappointed that my favourite guided exercises are now buried below a lot of other fluff that’s been added to the app.

Amazing
This app immediately got me out of an anxiety attack and has taught me so much. I love it
Best companion
I have used this app regularly over the last 2 years to manage anxiety. The breathing exercises have made a massive difference to me and also lots of good content on understanding stress and learning how to manage it.
You have to pay for almost everything
The free things you can use are pretty basic readings and breathing exercises you can find online. Everything else you need to pay £1.99. Maybe the app itself is better than 2 stars, but I'll never know as I could barely use any of it. I'm not a fan of apps that are free to download and then charge you for almost everything once you're in the app.

This app has really helped me
I found the Companion app via the NHS website and it has really helped me to manage some severe anxiety that was triggered in the past week. The box breathing exercise grounds me so that I can avoid feeling panicky and the CBT exercises help to rationalise my thoughts. Absolutely invaluable. Thank you.

Can’t get started
Literally just downloaded this and the privacy policy is overlaid on the create password field, rubbish. Have turned my phone off and on and still not working
Excellent
I can’t say enough good things about this App I have tried many and this is superior to anything I’ve used in the past it’s truly excellent.
It reduces my anxiety levels every time I use it.
It’s a wonderful tool.Highly recommend it.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Broken
Can’t even get passed trying to sign up. The text field ui says “email” and when I fill it in it and submit a modal pops up wanting a password as well. Except there is no form field listed for the password. Rage quit after 5 minutes of this garbage. I hope they fix this horrible ux/ui issue. It is completely un-usable as is right now. Why do you need a sign up/in wall anyway right away??
Very frustrated

Response from developer
Hi! This sounds very odd and we can’t reproduce the problem. If you contact dan@companionapproach.com, we can get some more details and try and resolve the issue on your device.
Limited unless you pay
Clicked on NHS link to this app and downloaded out of interest. Disappointed to find very few of tools available unless you pay. Have deleted app but can’t find a way to delete registration and email!
App stopped working
I’ve used this app for a month and paid for the subscription. I’ve loved it but went to use it tonight it’s logged me out won’t let me back in and I literally can’t do anything to resolve it!!
Great!!
The thought card section completely stops my panic attacks!
This is a great App

Perfect for what I needed
This app is great. The breathing exercises are simple to follow and really helpful. I love the mindfulness body scan and have been using it a lot to regain focus during stressful days. All of the background information in the guides is well written and really helped me understand CBT.
I would recommend this app to anyone who has a stressful lifestyle and needs to find a better balance.
