Thinkladder
Young adult feedback
The app offers nice audio and gratitude practices, but the functionality of this app is a little hard to understand and the ‘insight’ aspect is confusing and almost tedious.
Expert feedback
Thinkladder is a simple app designed to assist users in identifying, and challenging, limiting beliefs. Users are able to select from topics that are most relevant to them and are guided through expert insights to create positive change. The app also offers audio options for relaxation! User friendliness could be improved through greater structure in content display.

#SelfLove & Motivation Journey
Young adult feedback
The app provides short activities to help reduce negative thoughts and promotes positive self-talk. It is really basic and not very entertaining but may be useful for a few minutes a day to encourage positive thinking.
Expert feedback
This app focuses on challenging unhelpful thinking patterns and providing users with positive thoughts through reframing statements. The app aims to help users better manage a range of mental health and wellbeing concerns and is simple to use. Content is limited and there is not psychoeducation provided around the purpose of thought challenge, but worth trying as users may find statements helpful.

GG OCD - Anxiety & Depression
Young adult feedback
This app has some confusing elements, but really good concepts overall and I would recommend it to others.
Expert feedback
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.

Pocketcoach - Anxiety Helper
Young adult feedback
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.
Expert feedback
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.

AbleTo
Young adult feedback
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.

CBT Companion
Young adult feedback
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.
Expert feedback
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. A 5-star app if not for some issues with functionality.

Expert feedback
Bloom is a well-designed, easy to use app, that provides users with CBT-based exercises to help target a diverse range of mental health presentations. A paid App, but $10/month does not seem unreasonable for the amount of content that is offered.
