CBT Thought Diary is a simple app allowing users to log daily moods, thoughts, and gratitude. The app uses CBT thought-challenging techniques with some psychoeducation. The design is dull, and the content is limited, but the app itself is easy to use and helpful as a daily tracking tool.
CBT Thought Diary is a good, but very basic, mood tracker that allows users to track negative thoughts and gratitude with a few learning options.

This app has some confusing elements, but really good concepts overall and I would recommend it to others.
A user friendly app that focuses on challenging unhelpful thinking patterns and providing users with positive thoughts to help better manage a range of mental health and wellbeing concerns. The design makes the app easy to use, but the information can become repetitive and tedious. There seems to be little education to highlight the reasons why a user’s belief might be unhelpful, and there appears to be cultural considerations given to suggestions. Overall, the app is worth exploring but may not be suited to users who are disengaged within 10 minutes.

This app allows users to capture in a diary any triggering events from their day, identify related thoughts, and create alternative thoughts. Helpful information about CBT is available. A very basic app and dull display.
Thought Diary is a helpful app for understanding the basics of using a thought diary and supports users through clearly explaining CBT techniques. The app is well designed and useful as a learning tool but lacks in engagement.

Really great app. Can change courses to what you would like to work on. Really enjoy the 'instant help' component. Good breathing exercises and videos.
Pocketcoach is an excellent app containing a wealth of resources to help with various mental health issues, including anxiety. Friendly design, very accessible and non-stigmatising language and lovely structure of the exercises. Lots of free content, but access to further paid content is also available at a reasonable price.

Good app that allows you to choose from 3 customisations in which you can then enter answers based on your own experiences. Information in activities is very informative. App is very easy to use and ability to have 'coach' for support and to schedule calls/texts would help with achieving goals.
Joyable is an excellent, well-designed app, aimed to help users with depression and anxiety. It offers structured modules with daily exercises and the option to connect with a personal counsellor via phone call or SMS. It was developed by an expert team and uses CBT practices to offer support.

Really good app that has a range of useful functions including strategies and tips for anxiety including 'quick reliefs’, coping cards, meditations, belief experiments, and you can even create a fear ladder to overcome fears and take you out of your comfort zone. Very diverse and useful app and would recommend this.

This app has a good mood tracker that allows you to track multiple emotions with percentages, has good range of exercises along with lessons and videos although these are sometimes hard to follow. There were a few errors with the app including the 'tour' option not working.
CBT Companion is truly an impressive, well-designed app! Not only does it incorporate a vast amount of information (via text and videos) about mental health, it also offers a variety of meditation tracks, a diary function, assessments, a community discussion board, quizzes and more.
