But one thing i WOULD really love is that when you use vibrations the screen stays on. I use the vibrations a lot but hate to have to keep turning on my screen! If theres any way to fix that, that would be awesome ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-04-16, version 15.9* I struggle with anxiety and am unable to breathe and feel chest ache, This really helps calm me down and if you have Anxiety or any sorts this is a mustt ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-04-08, version 15.9* Omg I love (♥ω♥) this App I have really bad anxiaty and this app took it ALL AWAY ### 5/5 — Sigma aplikacja *2026-03-13, version 15.9* Jestem odstresowany ### 5/5 — amazing *2026-03-03, version 15.9* AMAZING app very good even without paying! ### 5/5 — So nice *2026-02-24, version 15.9* This made me tired and relaxed I’m not really worrying about tomorrow anymore ### 5/5 — Helps a lot *2026-02-19, version 15.9* I have hard time getting through thing and this app had helped me a lot ### 5/5 — lol *2026-02-11, version 15.9* 67 ### 5/5 — Great app perfect for panic attacks *2026-02-10, version 15.9* I wish this app was completely free that’s the only down turn about it. Idk if the parts I’m using in the app are the free trial or not but it has a lot of stuff and it really handy. There’s so much customizable stuff that I think boosts the experience. I have ptsd and panic apps never work for me anymore. This one tho did. It had so much coping techniques, advice, and the app even supports u. This is my favorite new stress app cuz my old one “#selfcare” stopped updating and they removed it as an app ### 5/5 — Genuinely helps *2026-02-07, version 15.9* This app is helping me through a difficult time in my life. Thanks so much to the developers. This app genuinely helps clear my mind. ### 5/5 — This is amazing! But.. *2026-01-29, version 15.9* This is a big lifesaver! I have been going through depression, and anxiety a lot. And I just wanted to find a app that could help with that. And this app has had everything I needed. It is really amazing!! Would definitely recommend. But the only thing I didn't really like is that we have to pay to do more things. Because to me it doesn't really make sense that we have to pay to help us go through things. To me it would be better if most things were free. But other than that, this app is AMAZING! I don't know how I would be without this app. ### 5/5 — 1000/10 I LOVE it it’s so much fun so many different variations to pick from it’s so relaxing *2026-01-18, version 15.9* 5/5!!!! Love!!! ### 5/5 — YES *2026-01-12, version 15.9* Omg this app is the best I would rate it higher if I could it’s so fun to do random stuff when I’m panicking and I play it on the bus and it’s so good ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ ### 5/5 — Why i love *2026-01-09, version 15.9* It made me feel good ugh just so recemend this!! ### 5/5 — Helped my kids so well *2025-12-30, version 15.9* Real good and fun I recommend it a lot⭐️ ### 5/5 — ngl this was amazing *2025-12-19, version 15.9* this was amazing do anything you have and if you combing it with other stress games you feel even better definitely try it ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Werbemüll *2025-11-01* Werbemüll ### 1/5 — No more chilltok *2025-08-13, version 15.8* Chilltok was my favorite thing about this app, it was my favorite app because of this and now I got a new phone redownloaded it immediately and now it’s gone 😭 ### 1/5 — F this app *2025-01-03, version 14.0* You gotta fake ur smile when they ask u to smile dude me an Asian was smiling as hard as i could and it said i was growing F this app and i never wanna hear about u again racist ### 1/5 — Great app *2024-12-30, version 13.1* Very satisfying sounds and vibrations ### 1/5 — AWFUL *2023-12-10* I wish I could rate the app 0 stars because that little ai robot is a disgrace I have autism and adhd and so much stress that I got the game to try to get rid off some but that robot mad my stress so bad that I have started having physical symptoms, if you are like me and have a lot of stress in your life I would recommend the game but DO NOT use the ai unless you want to be more stressed out, this robot talkes in chunks bigger than the screen and repeats everything and the only thing it says is I recommend you get some help from a healthcare professional ### 1/5 — Complete knock off *2023-06-17* I have an app called Tappy on my phone and this app is a complete knock off of Tappy. It had a lot of the same ideas except they were a little bit worse… OK a lot worse and some of them even have the same icons like the sounds. It was really annoying because the Tappy is way better and the pro is a lot cheaper, so anyone who download this just get happy instead. ### 1/5 — Lol *2022-06-22, version 5.0* I like it I think u should add more stuff though ### 3/5 — Stress ball *2026-07-15, version 16.1* There isn’t enough things to do and there is to many things to do to pay for. I don’t want to pay 50 dollars just to have stress relief. Overall it is a good app but still too much to pay for. ### 3/5 — okay but *2026-06-20, version 16.1* perfect! but please allow for buying all premium products for lifetime ### 3/5 — Good but like why advertise something that ain’t free *2025-12-11, version 15.9* Love it but wish it was free ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — pennys *2026-08-05, version 16.1* my penis got forked to ### 5/5 — AMAZING *2026-07-16, version 16.1* I have ADHD and mid stress and this help a lot more than I looks I calm down quicker and stop crying easily thank you❤️❤️🙂 ### 5/5 — big help! *2026-07-06, version 16.1* this app is very useful and helpful!! helps lots of users. one thing is that it doesn’t offer so much for people without pro ### 5/5 — ❤LOVE *2026-07-03, version 16.1* The talking to ai is the best for me. honestly best stress app ever! ### 5/5 — AMAZING *2026-07-02, version 16.1* I love this app so much, me and bsf use it for our anxiety and it helps us in stressful situations ### 5/5 — Pls read! *2026-05-21, version 15.9* This is so helpful and free with like NO ADS like even without pro still no ads it is so good for adhd fidgeting and anxiety but with the feels that only works on iPhone 8 and this other thing ### 5/5 — Im in love *2026-05-18, version 15.9* This app is so helpful with fun stress games, tips with anxiety, and encouragement!!!
