MindDoc: Mental Health Support

The app didn't work with my password manager so I bailed before finishing onboarding

I am diagnosed with bipolar disorder and it’s been tough getting a handle on it. While MindDoc is not a replacement for my treatment involving medication (including non-pharmaceutical intervention, in my case, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation), psychiatry, and psychological therapy, I have found it a very useful therapeutic-adjunct tool. It’s been particularly useful since I began engaging in psychotherapy with a psychologist for two main reasons: 1. I have been asked to keep a mood diary and I have struggled to keep up the practise until I began using MindDoc; and 2. The content is well-written, easy to understand and serves to reinforce the concepts I discuss with the mental health practitioners I consult no matter the chosen intervention (e.g., ACT, CBT, Schema Therapy or IFS). I am eager to see what patterns develop over time!

I’ve been using this app for 2 years and I cannot express how thankful I am to have it. It’s a fantastic app that allows you to write down all your thoughts whenever you want to. It keeps track of how you’re feeling with questions and gives you frequent overviews so you can keep on top of your mood changes and realise when things aren’t right. I recommend this app to everyone !

all of the features on it are amazing. the only thing i can suggest is when you are logging having the “how are you feeling” section at the end of the questions doesnt really work for me. some of the questions beforehand get me in a more negitive mindset. other than that great app.

It wouldn’t let confirm my email

I pretty diligently entered my moods and made notes about how I was feeling for 11 days, and then all of a suddenly half way through the day I open the app and I’m back at the very beginning being asked to do my first set of questions. All my data is completely gone. It feels so disheartening. I can’t bring myself to start again, so I will be deleting the app. I feel like I’ve wasted all that time and effort.

This app used to be really amazing! But with every new update more and more is put behind a paywall. Then all of the “help” is behind ANOTHER paywall! Very disappointing. I now can’t check years of mental health progress because I can’t afford to pay a subscription fee. The notifications for checking in a bug-filled on the best of days. Always signs me out of the app, leading to then not getting any more notifications. The new colour scheme is also…not good. Sad to see this app go but I can’t keep using it with minimal features being “free”.

I’m a new user and I’m very disappointed to notice that the “third party ad networks” button to opt-in or out is cosmetic only. While you may think you have opted out, by tapping on your profile, then “data & security”, then “third party tools” and turning off the “third party ad networks”, it is a ruse. As soon as you close the app and re-open it again, it has opted you back in without your input. Unacceptable behaviour. And of people who are potentially vulnerable also. Terribly disrespectful and I’m pretty sure a breach of privacy.

I’ve been using this app consistently for more than a year. But a few weeks ago I was unable to log in. I tried changing my password and tried to email myself a new password but I never received the email. I can’t sign up to a new account either as it keeps saying “we are unable to process your request. Please try again later”. This app was really important in my mental health routine and I would really like to keep using it!! Could someone please help?

I think the app is amazing, and I love to use it everyday and it always helps me keep up with how I am going and discuss it with others. The app is also clear to understand and easy to use. I use the free part of it, and it is so helpful to understand my emotions a little better! I 10/10 recommend this app! I love it!
