About

ReframeKit

Read full description

When anxious thoughts spiral, ReframeKit gives you a calm space to slow down and reframe them. Built for CBT practice and cognitive restructuring — at home, on your device, without ads or accounts. Each Reframe walks you through the situation that set things off, the emotions it provoked, the automatic thoughts behind them, the cognitive distortions at play, and the reframed thoughts you put in their place. Whether you're working alongside a therapist or building self-awareness on your own, ReframeKit gives you a calm, focused space to slow down and think clearly. What it helps with - Anxiety and anxious overthinking - Low mood and depressive thought patterns - Stress and overwhelm - Self-criticism and harsh inner dialogue - Practice between therapy sessions Features - Guided Reframes — A step-by-step process that captures the situation, the emotions you felt (and how strongly), your automatic thoughts, the cognitive distortions at play, and the reframed thoughts that result. - Cognitive Distortion Library — Learn to recognize common distortions like catastrophizing, mind reading, and all-or-nothing thinking, with built-in descriptions for each. - Emotion Tracking with Intensity Ratings — Name what you feel and rate how strongly, so you can see shifts in mood over time. - Draft Autosave — Your in-progress Reframe is continuously saved automatically. Quit midway and pick up exactly where you left off. - Past Reframes — Revisit past Reframes to spot recurring patterns and notice your growth. - Full-Text Search — Quickly search across your Reframes — situations, automatic thoughts, challenges, and reframed thoughts alike. - Recently Deleted — Deleted Reframes are kept for 30 days, so accidental deletions are easy to restore. - Backup & Restore — Your data is yours. Back up your Reframes for safekeeping or restore them onto a new device. - Helpful Tips — Gentle in-app guidance helps you get the most out of each step. - Simple, Focused Interface — A clean, distraction-free design that keeps you grounded in the reflection process. A note from the developer ReframeKit is free — genuinely free, with no ads, no subscriptions, and no accounts. I built it because MoodKit, an app I relied on for years, is no longer available, and I wanted that kind of tool to exist again. Your Reframes stay on your device. ReframeKit is not a substitute for professional mental health care. If you're in crisis, please reach out to a qualified professional or local emergency services.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ReframeKit at none against Cerina's 7. ReframeKit also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 5 weeks). Cerina's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 26). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
