Loud mind? Malva makes it quiet. Malva is the self-help app for people who think too much — night spiralers, decision doubters, conversation replayers and future worriers. A CALM SENTENCE EVERY MORNING Your daily card: no forced positivity — mild, honest sentences for loud minds. Also as a widget on your home screen, offline and reliable. SOS QUICK RELIEF — ALWAYS FREE Racing thoughts? Two taps take you to 5-4-3-2-1 grounding, calm breathing, a brain dump or a thought stop. No account, no internet, in the middle of the night. SOS stays free forever — with or without a subscription. YOUR HONEST CHECK-IN "How loud is your mind right now?" One turn of the dial, nothing more. No streaks, no guilt — calm can't be forced. 40 EXERCISES FOR YOUR SITUATION Falling asleep, decisions, replaying conversations, future worries, self-criticism: short 2–5 minute exercises, step by step. 21 DAYS: STEP OFF THE THOUGHT SPIRAL Understand, interrupt, anchor — a gentle program at your own pace. If you pause, you simply continue. THE THOUGHT CHECK A thought that keeps circling? Five gentle questions lead you to a kinder, more honest sentence. Your clarified thoughts live in a private archive. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no tracking, no data sharing. Everything you tell Malva stays on your device. HONESTLY, UP FRONT Malva is self-help — not a substitute for therapy, diagnosis or treatment, and not built for crisis support. If you're seriously struggling, the app points you to real helplines right away. MALVA PREMIUM The daily card, check-in and SOS quick relief are free. Malva Premium unlocks all 40 exercises, all 120 cards, the full 21-day program and the Thought Check: • Yearly: $34.99/year (≈ $2.92/month) — with a 3-day free trial • Monthly: $6.99/month Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period.
