“Took a chance with this app as it popped up while scrolling and I am so glad I did! It is honestly amazing and the best Anxiety app i have tried and used, trust me when I say this I have tried sooo many! The "Evening Wind Down" is the absolute best and I love how the app has so many different tools and meditations to use! Barry's voice is so dreamy too, Long story short, I HIGHLY recommend DARE!!! Just love it!” - StacyS

“This is one of the only apps I’ve continued to pay premium for. It’s truly helped me to come off that ledge of anxiety and helped me learn new coping mechanisms that therapy hadn’t even taught me. I love this app, and I love the people that run it. Thank you for what you do.”-Aschom

“20 years of fighting anxiety on my own not knowing what's going on with me….until I got this app, it’s changed the way I fight this THING forever. Thank you for all the work they do''- Glitchb1

“DARE is a lifesaver, I recently started using it but it's already helped me more than my therapist. The advice and the DARE response is great, but for me the best are the deep relief and insomnia recordings they help me go to sleep”- MartinB

“I was skeptical of the claim that within 3 days you’d see improvements — but I have an incredible set of tools.I can’t imagine not having this app now.”-RebbecaM

Loved the book. The method has been literal live saving. The app was a great companion and helper to keep my progress moving forward. One star off for the disappointing way they handle subscriptions. I paid for a year, with my subscription renewing October 8th. Unfortunately I can't afford it this time around so I cancelled it a month in advance. Even though I have a month left, that I've paid for, I no longer have access to content in the app. Very disappointing.

I have looked and looked for a app to helpme but to no avail. Then this one popped up. What a godsend!!! Its like having a therapist on call 24/7! I have many mental issues. I need to learn how to handle these and that is just what this app does! The audios help me so much! Just having someone talking to me, guiding me , I have hope now :) there is a variety of audios from teaching you how to deal to emergency audio that reassures you that you will be okay!

The content is quite good, the author/narrators voice soothing and creates the safe space needed. I have used the free trial for the first two weeks and think it's been helpful for calming me down when I need it. I bought the book just because of the high quality of the audios, although I will say it's pretty glitchy and some videos don't even play on my Samsung S7. The download of audios is brilliant and solves the concern of jittery playback when trying to calm down. My only complaint is that there are very few audios for the categories and while they are all very good - I have probably already listened to all of the relevant content for me on the app in the first 2 weeks. While I think it is valuable enough to pay money toward, I am not sure I see how it would be a subscription model that renews annually. It would make more sense to just "buy" the program. There would have to be a significant amount of additional content created in 2021 for me to see how paying $120 total for 2 years would make sense. Daily dare content is not enough in my mind. One recommendation for content addition - insomnia for beginners. I've had it for a week-ish now and the target audio about resolving insomnia talks about "chronic, long-term insomnia". I consider this an acute issue for me at this time and don't feel that the content really fits my situation as much.
