RemHack

Hack your brain's own healing system — using nothing but your eyes. Your brain already knows how to process pain. It does this every night during REM sleep, without you lifting a finger. RemHack puts that same power in your hands while you're wide awake: guided eye movements, paired with sound, that get both hemispheres working together to finish what stress left unresolved. RemHack is inspired by EMDR, a clinical method shown to deliver meaningful results in as few as 3 sessions. We've taken that science and made it something you can run yourself, daily, right when you need it. HOW IT WORKS A guided session walks you through structured phases — from identifying what's weighing on you, through sets of bilateral eye movements synced with gentle audio, to anchoring a new, grounded belief. Headphones are recommended for the full bilateral audio effect. Along the way, you can return to a personal safe place whenever you need to, and you'll check in on how disturbing the memory feels as it changes from set to set. Each session takes 15–30 minutes, works independently, and is saved to your history with notes so you can look back on your progress. WHO IT'S FOR Ā· Anyone carrying stress, anxiety, or difficult memories Ā· People who want to process emotions without talk therapy Ā· Those who've tried EMDR and want a daily self-guided tool Ā· Anyone curious about how the brain actually heals WHEN TO USE IT Ā· Before a stressful event you can't stop thinking about Ā· After a difficult conversation or conflict that's still weighing on you Ā· When a memory keeps resurfacing and won't let go Ā· When anxiety is building up and you need to come back to center Ā· When you can't fall asleep because your mind won't quiet down RemHack is a self-help tool, not a medical device. It does not replace professional therapy. If you are experiencing severe trauma or mental health difficulties, please consult a qualified professional. All your data stays on your device. We collect nothing. See our full privacy policy at multivacappstudio.com. Try your first 3 sessions for free. After that, a single one-time purchase unlocks lifetime access. No subscription, ever.

Panic at 3 AM. A racing mind before a presentation. That knot in your chest on Sunday evening. Eftly is for exactly those moments: open the app, tap the SOS button, and a calm voice guides you through — you're tapping along within two seconds. EFT tapping (Emotional Freedom Techniques) is a simple self-help method: while you name what's bothering you, you tap gently with your fingertips on nine acupressure points. Eftly guides every step — the voice tells you what to say and where to tap, the animated figure shows the point, and soft haptics mark the rhythm. You just tap along. WHAT'S INSIDE • 15 guided sessions of 3–4 minutes across six areas: SOS, anxiety, sleep, stress, focus and cravings • A quick 0–10 check-in before and after each session, so you can see what changed • Start Panic SOS from Siri, Spotlight or the Action button • Panic SOS and Overwhelm SOS — one tap from the home screen • Sleep sessions for falling asleep, 3 AM wake-ups and pre-sleep worry • Five languages — English, German, Dutch, French, Spanish — every session fully voiced, each language with its own calm, native voice • Gentle tap-rhythm haptics, so you can follow with your eyes closed • Audio keeps playing with the screen locked, with lock-screen controls • Works fully offline, anywhere • A quiet evening reminder, if you want one — no streaks, no guilt PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no sign-up, no ads. Your session history stays on your iPhone. The app only sends anonymous usage statistics — and you can switch even that off in Settings. FREE, AND PLUS Five sessions are free forever: both SOS sessions plus one each for anxiety, sleep and stress. Eftly Plus unlocks all 15 sessions in all five languages: € 39.99 a year after a 7-day free trial, or € 8.99 a month (prices may vary by region). Payment is charged to your Apple account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and can be managed in your account settings. A NOTE THAT MATTERS Eftly is a self-help tool, not medical or psychological care. Tapping may help you feel calmer, but it does not diagnose, treat or cure any condition. If you're in crisis, please reach out to a professional — the app links to international helplines.
