MoodKit App Reviews

This is a wonderful practical app. In the moment access and an intelligent set of information that is useful and challenges thinking.

...and worth every penny! I just wanted a mood tracker with chart function but the thought distortion tool alone has been phenomenal in improving my moods (as well as the recording of my automatic thoughts in the journal for future reference). I like "committing" to healthy activities out of the robust list of social, physical, functional and custom choices. This has made a tangible improvement in my life. The capability to print or email everything from the thought, activity or mood chart/journal is helpful as well. The only thing Id love is a reminder to "check in" daily via iPhone notifications...

Im pursuing my M.Ed. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Vanderbilt. We had talked about mood tracking apps in one of my classes. I decided to experiment with some, in particular to work on personal issues with anxiety. The "Thought Checker" is modeled on a standard CBT tool called a Thought Record. It is extremely effective to be able to use this tool in the moment to balance distorted, anxious thoughts, and much more convenient than paper worksheets. You can record your thoughts and feelings in a journal that could easily be shared with a mental health professional to facilitate the work you do in sessions. It offers a pin code to protect your privacy. Im just beginning to explore the other features but they seem to be icing on the cake. This is a tool I will recommend to my clients in the future.

I like the look of the app and ease of use. Great suggestions for keeping things on track.

Excellent system to help correct negative thinking. It allows you to track your mood, keep journal entries, keeps track of the things in life that are necessary to stay stable and balanced and where you are low, it offers activities. Over all it is intuitive and user friendly. Clean interface. Very well done.

Very dynamic. Im impressed by the depth of this app. Its easy to navigate but theres so much real life application that you can easily get lost in this app in a good way.

This app is a life saver. I cant carry my DBT book around, because its huge and embarrassing, and no way Im going to whip out a work sheet and DBT my feelings really quick. However I can whip out this app, calm down, and work through it. Thank you so much.❤️

The app is trustworthy and has a good interface. I had tried other CBT apps and this is by far the best interface Ive used. The idea of having a journal, the CBT journals and other ideas combined is great; I like having my mood in a single location in my phone. There are some things in the app that could make it much better. The way the activities are organized is not as useful as they could be. I do not even know if having so many different activities will necessarily improve the mood of people. It is something the app uses to boast, but it is something I do not see myself using every day. The CBT can be further improved by adding steps to the point where one is challenging the unhelpful thought. The different thinking styles each affect the unhelpful thought differently, and so simply demanding from the user/patient to "Think without your thinking styles" is not useful. The app Pocket CBT does the step by step challenging successfully. It would be great to have the app integrated into Apples Health app. iOS 7 is here already and the developers could take advantage of this!

Buy it now, your life will improve if you use it consistently. One note is you need to go in and add your own reminders, but you can set them for any time so thats nice. Just be sure to click the plus sign under reminders.

This is a great app that makes using the Burns The Feel Good Handbook a breeze. I was caught up before in needing to have a notebook with me, but God knows I never leave my phone alone.

Took a little getting used to it at first, but afterwards it was perfect. Worth every penny.

This little app is well worth the $4.99 price tag. Its surprisingly powerful! I like the commitments section - where you can search through many different activities you can commit to. As you commit and then carry out those commitments you feel a real sense of accomplishment. I also like the thought checker tool. Very effective for empowering you to gain perspective on a situation or fear. I highly recommend this app!

Lots of very good actionable ideas for living a better life.

This app is very helpful and well designed. I hope you guys keep developing the app and include additional functionality to keep it current and modern.

I purchased this app just a few days ago, and already its helped so much in coping with depression and anxiety. Looking at thought distortions has helped me think more realistically, and I like being able to track my moods. Definitely worth every penny!!

been trying to track mood for years, but never organized enough. now i can. and the extras arr just as vital...

If you work with a therapist, this is a great tool to help track your moods, thoughts, and more. It doesnt replace a professional, but is a great way to manage between sessions. I really love the activity feature and the thought tracker. I dont typically pay for apps, but this one is worth every penny.

I absolutely LOVE this app! It has actually been life changing for me. Activity suggestions, mood tracking, cognitive behavioural therapy, journalling are just some of the features great features. PLEASE RELEASE AN IPAD VERSION!!!!!!!!

I find this app to be quite the helpful tool when my feelings and thoughts seem amplified. I work through my thoughts and feelings in real time which makes a huge difference. I also use it when contemplating certain decisions day to day. Even when my thoughts have no distortions, Moodkit can help me see most situations and feelings from another perspective, which helps me a great deal. Im grateful for this awesome app!

This app is great. I really like the intuitive manner in which the app integrates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) methods. I also like the mood tracking graph. The most frequent tools I use are the journal (which functions great on its own), but also the CBT and mood graph. Other features include physical, emotional and social activity tips and suggestions that could be useful to elevate ones mood- the app offers users the opportunity to "commit" to do certain activities (which presumably motivates action/follow through). Some features Id like to see in future updates include: 1. The ability to include photos- (some of my journal entries would be more substantive with this feature). 2. The ability to create/integrate a timeline relative to the mood graph. (When reviewing my mood graph, it would be helpful to see a 30 character label that corresponds with a sudden rise or fall of a mood; such as "Got a new car" or "Rained all day long"). 3. The ability to track multiple emotions simultaneously- (maybe this would invite excessive complexity, but sometimes I might say Im a "7" on anxiety, although Im a "9" on happiness and a "3" on enthusiasm"). Rolling everything up into just one mood has been challenging for me. (Perhaps users could choose to add additional emotions, without the app requiring them? Maybe this could be a paid feature?) Lastly, Id like to point out that the app is only as useful as the user makes it- if journals are inconsistent, the mood tracking graph doesnt work as well and if the user doesnt commit to activities, then the benefits cant be tracked and/or realized. In any case, this app is really solid in its current state and has really helped me to maintain a realistic viewpoint. Strongly recommended!!
