MindShift CBT - Anxiety Relief Reviews

After reviewing and critiquing MindShift CBT, I rank MindShiftCBT a 4 out of 5. While MindShiftCBT has many strengths such as providing a simple and user friendly preface that allows its users to very easily use it as a positive tool, I feel that if there was a social aspect with MindShiftCBT , it would attract more users. Especially given that the adolescent population thrives off of forming connections and having a social network. MindShift CBT is very informative without being intimidating or overwhelming. I feel if MindShiftCBT incorporated additional videos and/or other visuals, it would be more appealing to adolescents as MindShiftCBT is primarily filled with just text. Many adolescents are visual learners and this is a weakness I see within MindShiftCBT . I would highly recommend MindShiftCBT to adolescents I plan to work with in the future as well as recommend it to adults looking for another outlet to help explore their own anxiety and mental health.

I’ve used this application for about a week now and I can happily say that this application is a great tool to use! It’s geared more towards teenagers who are dealing with a form of anxiety. It’s user friendly and easy to use. I am able to customize this application to my own experience making it a unique experience. The audio section in this application was soothing and relaxing. It helped me tremendously when experiencing high levels of anxiety. This application was free which is a feat benefit and I was able to to text my information with a passcode. Although this application can be used for anyone who has access to the store, it’s intended to be used more towards adolescents. This application is a tool to help with anxiety however if symptoms get worse or are more severe this unlikely work.

It’s not a bad app at all. I do enjoy tracking my anxiety throughout the day though I wish it could go beyond three entires and maybe up to five becuase some days fluctuate for me more than others. Also I have been using this for almost a month now and have found that you can only look back on entries from the past two weeks leaving me to believe that all of my other tracking and mini journal entries have been deleted. That is a bit frustrating as I intended to use this to show my therapist during our sessions but now seeing as I can’t access some of my past data entries I am unable to do so. I wish there were a few more visuals and less text because that can be overwhelming alone and sometimes reading something during a panic can just make it worse. I really like the overall concept I just wish for more flexibility and the ability to look back on past entries.

As a young adult I’ve always had some small level of anxiety that I’ve dealt with. The pandemic and job stress has just amplified all of that. I don’t think my anxiety is so severe that I need to get a therapist (mostly because of the cost) so I wanted to find ways to manage my anxiety. MindShiftCBT is exactly that! It’s extremely educational and user friendly to the point where I can feel my anxiety diminish as I’m using it. Just reading through the descriptions of “perfectionism” made me feel so much better because I’ve always been a perfectionist and I had never realized how that affected so many aspects of my life. I’m not free from anxiety, but I’m slowly learning how to manage it thanks to the great info and tools provided by MindShiftCBT.

I've only been using it for about a week now, but I looked at quite a few others before I chose this one. It's really a nice App. Mindshift offers many ways to access "Quick Relief" if you feel yourself neck deep in anxiety...and a nice way to track your moods by date.
The only thing I feel like could use some more flexibility (and maybe it's already there and I just don't know), is the ability to amend or add to a day's entry if your situation has changed entirely. *For some folks, that could be several times a day, and it would be super helpful to be able to jounal more than once per day.
I'll amend with 5 stars if we can have more recorded mood swings, 🙏. Thank you, Developers.

I don’t want to see you but I don’t want to see you again I don’t want to see you again I don’t want to see you again I don’t want to lose it all you again I don’t want to see you again I don’t know what I want you to say that you don’t have anything to say bye to you bye y’all don’t have a lot to say I don’t know what you want me I want you don’t know I love that you’re not gonna like me anymore I’m sorry I just want you to know I don’t want to see you again I don’t want to lose you but you don’t have anything to or do you or me I know you have no idea how about that I love that I can help me with this and you don’t want me bye

MindShiftCBT is really well thought out. It is a great avenue for people that struggle with anxiety or worry a lot. My issue is with the recommended age range for MindShiftCBT. To get the most out of MindShiftCBT you need to be able to give pretty well though out out answers as well as have a good reading ability. I think it’s is best for adolescents or working adults. Tracking your progress is a large part of MindShiftCBT and at four years old it’s not going to happen. A lot of people who struggle with anxiety etc are too afraid to get help from a person, so MindShiftCBT is perfect for them.

I honestly didn’t expect MindShiftCBT to be so important in my day to day life. I love it! It’s been so helpful! It helps me identify and balance thought traps, it provides a space for setting goals (with schedules, and offers quick suggestions for calming and grounding myself. Many thanks to those who put MindShiftCBT together!

Update: I can’t get the Share function to work. I select items and date ranges but tapping Share doesn’t do anything. Do the developers have an idea of why it doesn’t work?

Update: MindShiftCBT requires that you use Apple’s Mail app as an email client (mine was uninstalled)

Mindshift is a great application, especially for adolescence who are working to cope with their anxiety. It offers a wide range of tools that can be used as well as a function to track one’s progress with a professional. While, there are weaknesses to the application, those weaknesses do not interfere with the main function of MindShiftCBT . Not to mention, those weaknesses can be improved with a new update. MindShiftCBT is highly recommended for adolescence who are struggling with anxiety and want an easy to use, accessible, free application to work through those anxieties.

MindShiftCBT has allowed me to help control or decrease my anxiety. The different activities and voice recordings allowed me to find new ways to relax. The voice recordings of breathing were very helpful. As you listen to the person speaking they help you take your mind off of what is bothering you. There are different categories to help you shift your mind from phobias, general aniexty, and panic attacks. Each sections helps break down what could be triggering what happening and allow you to understand what is occurring, so you can over come it.

MindShiftCBT is delightful for keeping track of my mental state all through out the day and record it so i can track myself based on days, to weeks, to a month! And the helpful tips to calm down are wonderful.

Only bummer is the goals section of MindShiftCBT . You can only create a goal and then length of time you’re allowing yourself is the 1st of the following month. Wish that calendar could be adjusted for longer periods of time, such as months in advanced, to allow a realistic date for goal competition.

I’ve always had MindShiftCBT and used it the week of finals or when my anxiety was through the roof! I love that there are so many different features for different types of anxiety and how to manage them. I also like the fact that there’s a section where you can learn everything there is to know about what anxiety is and what causes it. MindShiftCBT is perfect for days where you’re so stress you don’t know whether you should scream, cry, or both. I recommend MindShiftCBT to EVERYONE!

I am a psychotherapist. I’d give MindShiftCBT 5 stars if it accounted for conditions such as agoraphobia, PTSD/C-PTSD— relational trauma, and IAD/health anxiety. While I appreciate the ability for customization within MindShiftCBT , leaving these out can further isolate people who already feel alone with their respective challenges. (A patient of mine mentioned this in session.) Though it is impossible to account for all anxiety-provoking stimuli, it would be great if the anxiety disorders found in the current DSM and ICD (5;11) were featured.
Thank you for consideration—— and creation of a platform that is free, well-designed, and easy to navigate.

I just got MindShiftCBT and I can already tell how much MindShiftCBT can do for me! I have to daily report which I love because it allows me to review how I FEEL. The breathing techniques are so good and helped me fall asleep. My social anxiety has not helped me make many friends this year, and because of that I dread going to school, being the “quiet kid” I’m not usually quiet, I’m just not with my friends. I’m going to follow the apps tips to help conquer my social anxiety and make some friends!

MindShiftCBT is great, but it has one issue that is very detremential for me. I am visually impaired, but I don’t need VoiceOver yet. There is no visible way to change your font size in MindShiftCBT and it doesn’t coordinate itself with my device’s set font size.
I would love to be able to use MindShiftCBT more often, but it’s very straining on my eyes. If you could fix it for me and anyone else with any level of limited vision, that would be great. Thank you so much for your time.

I just recently downloaded MindShiftCBT, it has MANY different tool and tips for dealing with anxiety. It also with specific anxiety causes such as perfectionism, social anxiety, even test anxiety! There are so many different tools to access on MindShiftCBT that I believe if I am consistent in using will help me better cope through my anxiety. MindShiftCBT is all about making a change within in yourself by yourself without being dependent on something.

mindshift used to be an okay app, and i mostly used it because my anxiety therapist told me it would help. of course, me being lazy i didn’t use it much because it was very basic. there wasn’t much to do and i got distracted easily because of the simpleness. i stopped using it for a while but i have therapy starting up again, so i decided to give it a try. there appears to have been a major update because mindshift really stepped up their game. MindShiftCBT still has lingering aspects of the simpleness before, but it’s much more modern and there is much more to do. my favorite part of mindshift is the “chill zone”. there are multiple audio recordings for many different occasions, and there is both female and male so people can choose the voice they prefer. mindshift is a great app for people with anxiety and has been a major step for me in overcoming mine.

MindShiftCBT is really great and helped me out with some of my anxiety with many of the different tools that it has. Some of the different things that I really liked about MindShiftCBT is healthy thinking, chill zone, and taking action. The chill zone helped me a lot with the different breathing patterns and helped me relax, the taking action helped me over come what my anxiety was about. I also really liked that I could make some goals which would help me get ahead of some of my anxiety.

I'm new to MindShiftCBT and it seems great. Seems like the more you explore the more you can find. My only suggestion would be to have notifications throughout the day checking in. I already found that it's easy to forget to do this but it could be so helpful to be reminded to check in! I briefly used another app that sent reminders but it didn't have nearly as much support so I chose this one. Thanks ♥️

I looked at many other apps before i decided upon this one. I like it and think it is very helpful. It provides multiple categories to determine where your anxiety comes from. It then goes on to tell you what to look for and how to help this source of anxiety, which i found very helpful. it provides tools to manage your anxiety which can come in handy when your anxiety becomes too much. Overall i enjoy using MindShiftCBT everyday to help manage my anxiety and everyday life.
