PROS CONS 

✔ Colourful and good use of image.
Intuitive design and layout.

✔ Audio materials are comfortable and non-confronting.

✔ Reading materials are short, reflective, and easy to connect with emotionally and mentally.

✔ Journal starts with a question.
Thought for the Day is useful in setting a positive tone for the day.

✔ Ability to track journal helps identifying negative pattern more easily.

✘ Audio guided therapy - must go back to file to pause or stop when doing other things/disturbed by someone.

 Only English version available which is a disadvantage for non-English speakers or English as their second language.

 Loading is relatively slower than the other mental wellness app I have reviewed.

 Paid subscription needed to access other materials so this limited my experience as a reviewer.

 No graph or report available which will improve the experience of identifying negative pattern.

 No community support information found on the app.
