Is Mental free?
Yes. Mental is free to download and to use: mood and journal, water, steps and sleep, seven rituals including SOS Calm, the sounds, the widgets and the morning check-in. Mental+ is an optional subscription (monthly, or yearly with a free week) or a one-time lifetime purchase that unlocks the rest.
What does Mental+ add?
All 17 rituals, the six 7-day programs, more sounds (fireplace, gentle storm, café, purring cat, white, pink and brown noise), keeping the sound on after a ritual, the spoken guide and the Apple Watch app.
Is Mental a medical app?
No. Mental is a wellness app: it doesn't diagnose or treat anything, and it doesn't replace a professional. If you are in distress or in danger, call 112, or in France 15 or 3114, the free national suicide prevention line, open day and night.
Where is my data kept?
On your devices and in your own private iCloud, which only you can access. There's no account and no server of ours, so we never see your mood, your journal or your Health data. Details in the
privacy policy.
Do I need an Apple Watch?
No. Mental works fully on iPhone. With Mental+, the Apple Watch app adds wrist taps for each breath, quick mood and water logging, and complications.
Can my family share Mental+?
Yes. Mental+ supports Family Sharing, so everyone in your family group gets it.
Where do the sounds come from?
The noises are generated on your iPhone. The recordings are free (CC0) field recordings from Freesound, including a light rain and thunderstorm by Felix Blume, cut into seamless loops.
Which languages are supported?
English and French. The app follows your device's language.
