The UP! mood diary originally was designed for individuals with bipolar I and bipolar II. Also, bipolar individuals with rapid cycling and mixed episodes are using the app to document their state of mental health. UP! is also used by people with borderline personality disorder (BPD), cyclothymia and recurrent depression. Since UP! in general is an asset to CBT, the app is also successfully used for other mental health conditions like major and recurrent depression, anxiety & panic attacks and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

UP! was developed with scientists to support people who must cope with a bipolar affective disorder (bipolar 1 and bipolar 2). The app digitizes routines and concepts suggested by supranational treatment guidelines and implicitly implements psycho-educative & cognitive behavioral therapeutically (CBT) approaches.

Ratings and reviews

I really like this app. I find it easy to use, and very helpful with the indepth look at the way your mind processes things as well as a great self reflection tool. This being said, lately it's just continued to crash and I find myself avoiding it due to the frustration. I also wish there was a way to share select informatiwith a provider\friend without needing to download the UP!Buddy app. If you could please fix the crashing issue, I would be so grateful. That'd be worth the full five stars

I'm torn. The mood entries along with description of anxiety, self confidence and energy with the option to type notes are fantastic. It's very useful. I'm using it to see if this new med I started is going to help me over time. HOWEVER - if by "highly automated" recording of sleep, work and activity they mean 99% WRONG recording of sleep, work and activity, then yeah, that's accurate. There needs to be an option to turn the "automation" off and enter it manually because it's USELESS.

I've appreciated the regular reminders to check in and the visual of the chart is giving me insights into my ups and downs. Also love that it tracks my activity time! Having warnings pop up for unusually high or low moods is really helpful, because it's not always something I'm self aware about. It doesn't seem accurate on messaging/phone time, (for instance I had an hour phone call and it didn't pick that up) and the sleep hours are a little wonky, but I can enter those manually.
