Ahead App - Emotions Coach Arvostelua 

An amazing helpful app I’ve learned a lot and keeps me accountable for my actions. I love it

This great App reminds us to check in with ourselves each day, provides tools to use when things get tough in our day and signposts us to articles which provide more detailed information to help with specific thoughts and behaviours.

Excellent customer service with an issue I was having setting up my account - helpful, quick to respond and follow up, professional and patient!

While I haven’t gotten the chance to actually use the app, the customer service has been superb. I had a little issue that took some time and patience to figure out but, nonetheless, we persevered. The co-founder was with me each step of the way and upgraded my account for the trouble. Can’t wait to use the app!

I've been using the Ahead app for a while now, and it has truly helped me better understand anxiety, stress, and how to stay calm. The app doesn’t just provide information—it guides you through a thoughtful process that makes learning engaging and effective.

I especially appreciate the different strategies it teaches, which have made me more aware of my thoughts and emotions. The step-by-step approach helps reinforce the knowledge in a way that sticks.

On top of that, their technical support is excellent! I had an issue with the app, and they responded immediately, working quickly to solve my problem. Their dedication to helping users made my experience even better.

If you're looking for a well-designed, practical app to improve mental well-being, I highly recommend Ahead!

Great app for understanding anxiety and reducing it. Great interface, snackable content and actually really useful guidance. Love it! Part of my daily routine already. Highly recommend.

it is actually very helpfull. its like a coach that i knew i needed but didnt have. even though the tips are very small and easy to use, doing them is actually helping me to get back on track.

I initially had an issue with the subscription after my trial ended and tried working with apple to resolve it and unfortunately they were not helpful. However I reached out the the developers at Ahead and they got back to me right away! I was pleasantly surprised at how kind, accommodating and helpful the representative was. Thanks Kai! Looking forward to experiencing more goodness with the app. :)

Excellent customer service and it made me feel like they really care about their users 🙏🏼

Extremely unhappy with lack of communication from them. Signed up for a 7 day free trial during which they stated the days of the trial & that you would be sent an email on day 5 to remind you the trial was ending. However they never sent that email. Feels like they lied to me to prevent me cancelling the free trial. I’ve tried contacting their non existent customer but received no reply. For a company whose app is all about mental wellbeing, this is really poor! Be very careful with this & make sure you set reminders if you don’t want to be charged as their promised email reminder was a con!

Great app. It’s been so helpful in finding out what my first signs are off different emotions. I’ve felt so more positivity and happier. I would highly recommend

The Ahead app is great - it feels like 1 on 1 counselling and gives you techniques to address your issues. Great

This app is a must need especially coming into the new year! Being a single mom of two and a full time student I want to get ahead of my big emotions and this app does just that! I love how I’m being taught about how to control my emotions and how to regain my sense of self. I’ve been over emotional for a while and I am already feeling great changes with this app. I’m very happy to have found this app!

I am so thankful for the love, support, and help that Ahead has brought during one of the most difficult times ever in my life. I have been out of work for 15 months and have been at the lowest time of my life facing a divorce. These tools have made me a better human being in the world and I am so thankful. I was reaching out as I want my wife to begin using it now that I am back in the home and we are working to reconcile. I so want her to try it out and see if it helps her with her depression, anxiety, and traumas from her childhood through today.

They took the monumental task of teaching emotional literacy, coping techniques for different adversities and made it a somewhat zen, gamified app.

Huge props to you guys this is honestly awesome

Helpful and fun!

This is overall a decent app. I'm a psychology major in my senior year, and most of the advice is pretty standard along with currently accepted therapy and psychology principles. Some of the choices are not the greatest, but it overall good and even fun. I would change the feature that cuts one off after a couple of lessons and makes you wait until the following day to continue. I would pay for a year of the app if it were not for this. I find it extremely annoying to not be able to use an app when I want to.

Very great app that helps one assess their own areas of development and implement helpful strategies to overcome a range of different challenges.

good experience especially with the customer service :)

Dangerous. I emailed them an example of their advice which contradicts current clinical practice and they refuse to do anything about it or consider reviewing the material. Instead they claimed ‘we ran [your example] across the scientific literature’ but when asked which literature they refuse to - or cannot - answer, despite several requests. I noticed in the app that a lot of the sources are secondary sources or websites, so really question how safe and valid this is as a mental health support tool, especially when there is no willingness to review content based on user feedback and experience. To claim they ran something across ‘the scientific literature’ but not say which is a real red flag for me.

It’s also really annoying making you click things like ‘had fun now I’m done’ at the end of exercises before you can move on. Plus, a lot of the questions asked have no answer that fits an individual situation which is frustrating. There is no ‘other’ option so you cannot move on unless you select an answer which doesn’t sit right. It feels like endless series of badly designed survey questions rather than a supportive resource.

My main issue is that they are over-confident in their content to the point of complacency and in a world where the evidence is constantly evolving this is not okay.

Avoid.
