Youper - CBT Therapy Chatbot

I love the AI chat and how it can direct questions to help me be mindful. It is excellent at creating affirmations and thoughtful activities. However, I really miss the meditation side it use to have. It was my favorite part of my night and without it I find myself not working with it as much.

Great app, It would be nice if it had speaking feature.

Onboarding took forever just to find out this app is paid only. Free version is useless.

Once you download the app, there is about 10 minutes of marketing the app to you before you can find out it is only paid. Cheap tricks like “do you want to reduce anxiety” clicking yes leads you to buy/try the app screen. I want to be able to see the interface, see if it resonates to invest the time to try it. I’d respect the app if the first question was “there is only a paid version (with free trial) do you want to continue? “

It’s pretty disappointing to log back in to only see all my entries wiped out and all features that were formerly free now put behind a paywall. I realize they were under no obligation to keep 6 years worth of entries but it’s still disappointing to log in and be told it’s a “fresh new account”. Nothing lasts on modern internet I suppose.

I hope the developers read this, you’ve made a good start, but it’s kind of pointless to get into these Conversations and then it doesn’t remember any past conversations. I don’t recall if I paid for it, but if I could, I’d ask for my money back because. It’s kind of useless if there’s no memory of past conversations.

Did not provide the expected support. Responses to input frequently did mot make sense or were very trite. Did not experience any significant value

My therapy is on hold while they train my new therapist so talking with AI helps a lot! I sometimes forget it’s AI lol

Long process to sign up and then it's $70/yr to talk to a bot. Not forthcoming

Why would you pay someone to take detailed notes of your psyche over a long period of time if it wasn’t to discover patterns you didn’t know were there? Supportive is great and can get someone through the day, keep them alive, but this isn’t a long term solution. This is a distraction at best. It really should give an option to alert local support or police in case the worst should occur but I’m sure there’s no money in that. “Life is pain, Highness.
