Everything you record stays on your phone
Your mood check-ins, safety plan, medication log, and symptom history are stored only on your own device — never on our servers. Not because we promise not to look, but because we structurally cannot: it never leaves your phone. Read our Privacy Policy →
Everything in one place, built around your day
Knowledge Hub
Plain-language guides to depression, anxiety, and related conditions — drawn from vetted South African and international sources. Always free, no account needed.
Daily check-in
A short daily wellbeing and mood check-in — honest questions, no jargon. Scores are tracked over time so you and your treating team can see patterns.
Health log
Sleep, mood, and a daily self-care checklist. Small, trackable wins — and a record that speaks for you when words are hard to find in a clinical appointment.
Medication & appointment radar
Log your medications and upcoming appointments. Missed doses show up clearly in your combined report — useful context for any clinician reviewing your progress.
Safety plan
Your own warning signs and coping steps, written by you and kept on your device. Always one tap away — even without a connection.
Next-of-kin check-in
A short questionnaire for a partner or parent to complete on your device — an outside view, always visible to you, never sent anywhere separately.
My history
A one-screen summary for any clinician meeting you for the first time — diagnoses, hospitalisations, medication allergies, and care team contacts.
Combined report
A printable chart of your wellbeing, mood, sleep, and medication adherence — generated on your device, for your treating team. Not a diagnosis.
Therapist directory
Verified South African mental health helplines and organisations — always free, always accessible, no account required.
