Youper - CBT Therapy Chatbot

Don’t waste your time putting into this app. Disgusted with how often I have to repeat myself. “How would you feel best supported right now?” I don’t know, why do you keep asking me to direct you in how to help me? How is that helpful? I might as well just talk to myself. Usually the app would just shut down on me and tell me to take a break or a breather and that’s super unhelpful. Constantly having to repeat and restate my challenges to a bot that superficially cuts me off all the time isn’t bringing clarity or hopefulness to this situation. An absolute turnoff to CBT. I also detest the way it tries to force you into a positive statement at the end of these super short cut off sessions that leave you completely dissatisfied. Really invalidating. Then they don’t post your review when it’s negative, because they’re narcissists who can’t take criticism.

This app would be great if it worked when I open it. Too many bugs and am regretting my purchase!

It’s like you’re talking to a really insightful therapist. I was just talking about self limiting beliefs in this initial session, but it provided some incredible insights and help me to work pass some roadblocks. I find using the microphone option on the iPhone keyboard is helpful in making it really feel conversational. My experience so far in this one session is honestly been more positive than my previous real in person therapist.

All the features are behind a paywall, they act like you can still use some features without paying but it’s not true. You go through the whole long set up phase and then it makes you pay or else you can’t use it. Very disappointing. Just be upfront about it.

The price is about $70 for those of you who need that information. I wish this app was more upfront about the cost. They should have that clearly displayed. I don’t like the trend of downloading “free” apps that force you to sign up for an account before telling you to agree to pay an exorbitant annual fee. Especially because now they have my email address and name even though I cannot afford to buy their app.

Best free text therapy, backed by positive psychology and cbt exercises, I highly recommend ❗️❗️❗️❗️

This app used to be THE BEST. I’ve used it for years, but now every bit is behind a pay wall so the things I used for a really long time that were super helpful are gone. Between that and the forever changing format it’s nowhere near the app I used to love and turn to every day.

This app turned my entire mood around the check in chat was amazing so personal and caring. I was so relaxed and felt unjudged. I would give it ten stars if that were possible

This used to be the best mental health app on the App Store. Now it costs an absurd amount, and they replaced all of the CBT with a AI that is incapable of providing even the most basic assistance. I’m genuinely shocked at how they’ve “updated” their app. Steer clear.

All is does is ask you “how does that make you feel” or “what about that bothers you”. That’s it. It may ask it differently sometimes but that’s literally ALL IT DOES. It also tells you that it’s essentially only made for anxiety and that’s it. I don’t have anxiety but even if I did I don’t understand why only have those two responses ever would help?? It’s terrible. Unless you ONLY want an anonymous bot to reply to everything you say with some variation of “I’m sorry you feel bad, that sounds terrible”…. Don’t get this.
