Pretty Awesome So Far

Ive only been using Happify for about a week but I think its pretty awesome so far. Im working on the "stop no-win comparisons" track because I know thats something I struggle with, and a lot of the tasks encourage self-reflection and acknowledging both positive and negative behaviors. I definitely think Ill be using this app for while.

Email good app is terrible

It is very helpful.

Happiest with Happify when I use it regularly

Great to have something positive to work on every day! App gets a little slow and glitchy. Recently had to delete and reload it, which then of course leads to me having to reset my password, etc...aargh! Now I really need it!

Life-changing, life-saving

Provides practical steps to help you see the world in a whole new light--an empowering positive light. Love this service, and the app is s great complement to it.

Positive Pyschology works wonders

I LOVE this app! I have the premium version, and its the best decision Ive made in a while. I suffer from depression and BDD, and have been looking into different ways to get happy again. This and exercise are the two things that have made the biggest difference to my mental health. All the different activities and missions really force you to get out there and improve your life, and the format of the app makes it fun like a game! Anyone suffering from a mental disorder, or anyone that just isnt in love with their life, should really give this a shot. It just might change their life like it did mine!

The Free version isnt so great

I chose the free track... Which you can only complete one track at a time. But today I had 3 activities listed, and 2/3 requires "premium" to complete. In fact ONE of them is actually CALLED go premium, and has nothing to do with me getting to a happier place. I feel like the makers of this app wouldve been happier if it had just been a paid app. So would I. Premium isnt a one time pay for the app. Its a subscription. If you just do monthly, its like $12 per month. I dont think from what Ive seen so far its worth it. Click the positive word balloons... Knock out negative words angry bird style (but only to level 2 or so on each... For more you need premium. Guided meditation. You can get guided meditations (and better ones) for free.

Amazingly effective

I downloaded this app while going through an extremely difficult situation at home. I was immediately skeptical of what I assumed would be a "cute" app that would the the equivalent of a motivational cat poster. Im so glad to see over the last several weeks that I was wrong. The app is terrific at guiding you through different activities, based on your input. There are some days when I dont have the energy to put effort into activities, and thankfully there are simple games that trick you into feeling good (try the hot air balloon game and youll see what I mean). Then there are days when I really want to get into things, and just typing them out and seeing my life unfold over time is both painful and liberating. It adds perspective during a time when Ive felt lost. If youre having a hard time and going through something agonizing, dont be afraid to get help. See a counselor, talk about meds to help you stabilize. And I definitely recommend downloading this app as a welcome distraction, a helpful companion through your difficult times. When Im on the other side, I intend to keep Happifying to maintain my gratitude for all the good things that this app has helped me to recognize.

Amazing APP!!

This is, hands down, the most helpful app I have on my phone, and in my life. It is an app that helps me understand myself, my purpose in life, and what really matters. I have connected with people in meaningful ways. I recommend it to all who struggle, to those who suffer, and to all who just want to love and enjoy life more!

Very helpful.

This App is very helpful and does a great job to raise self awareness and regain a sense of calm.

So-so

It is an okay app. I bought it while I was experiencing an unusual amount of anxiety and self doubt. I find myself no longer needing it, but unable to cancel my subscription. The app also has difficulty loading certain game or recording your completion of a section. I would recommend trying the free version, but definitely not buying the full one.

Great App, Great Customer Service

Great app and it really works. Great customer service: When I signed up for premium there was a glitch where I paid for it, but it wasnt reflected on the app. I emailed support and the issue was resolved in less than an hour.

Happy to Review

I really enjoy this app. It has a great combination of peer reviewed evidence combined with fun games and activities that require introspection. I feel like I am happier when I use this app.

Too expensive

Simple. But too expensive compared to other apps

Useful and fun, I really love it!

This app is great and it keeps getting better and better! I love the new activities, and the community on Happify is so wonderful and supportive. I have been using the app now for almost a year, and its now part of my daily routine. A go to app for my feeling good

Life changer

I installed happify to help calm my negative thoughts and worrying, and the activities and games have done just that. Happify has taught me how to look at things from a different perspective, and I am really enjoying the experience.

Liked it when it worked...

I liked this app very much. Used it pretty much everyday. I even paid for the premium features. Then an update to the app was released and now whenever I sign in, the app crashes. After several emails back and forth, the only thing I have got back is "we are working on it. What phone and OS version are you running?" They released a new version and it still doesnt work. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app over and over again with no success. I work on mobile apps. It shouldnt be this hard to solve crashes like this. There are tools like fabric which give you all of the data you need. No excuse for not knowing about your crashes. So, I am sad that the app isnt working for me. At this rate, I doubt I will renew my subscription.. In fact I have already turned off auto-renew so I dont get billed.

Buggy—Password Reset Doesn’t Work

I wanted to like this app. It seems inviting when you use the free version. Then I made the mistake of purchasing the paid version and could no longer log in. The password reset flow just threw me into an endless loop. Their support was un-helpful, and they would not refund my purchase or even extend the date due to my inability to log in so it was a total waste of money. I’m still going to try and dispute the charge through my credit card company!

Way too expensive

The app is great... And the serenity scenes are the best part... But, a monthly subscription is too much for me. If Im truly trying to be intentional about being positive, I can individually find most of these activities and guided meditation thru other (free) apps and sources... Wish I could afford the full app... Id be way more down if it was just a one time fee. Too bad!

Best app i ever purchased

Sure, its expensive, but you get what you pay for. This app is incredibly well done, with activities soundly based on extensive research. It has definitely made me happier, and what is more important than your happiness?

DO NOT SUBSCRIBE TO THIS APP

I subscribed to the $4.99/month membership (the button I clicked on said that exactly, so if you asked me, Id say its false advertising) and Happify charged me $59! Dont waste your money, this app isnt anywhere near worth $59. Is it worth $4.99? Maybe, but theyve decided to rip people off instead.
