About this app

The benefits of nature contact for human health and well-being are countless: reduced stress and anxiety levels, better sleep, greater happiness, improved well-being and life satisfaction, increased social connectedness, and many more.
Yet humans are increasingly disconnected from nature.

reconnect helps people reconnect with nature:
- With hundreds of inspirational quotes the app awakens human's innate desire to connect with nature.

Artists, scientists, astronauts, writers, musicians, philosophers and many other historical figures throughout the ages cultivated deep love for nature in their hearts and expressed it beautifully with their words.
Our ancestors from ancient cultures all over the world have condensed nature’s wisdom in countless beautiful proverbs, which also reveal how much they loved and revered nature.

We are happy to share these precious ‘jewels’ with you and hope they spark the light of love for nature also in you.

- The app enables users to keep a photo journal of their personal connection with nature and so strengthen their bond with nature.

Simply noticing three good things daily improves the well-being, broadens the scope of attention and enhances the psychological resources.

With reconnect we invite you to notice the beauty of nature that is next to you, capture it with the phone camera, and write down the thoughts, emotions, or sensations that this moment in nature evoked in you. This will enhance your nature awareness and connectedness, and also help you perceive nature’s wisdom.

- With simple mindfulness exercises the app helps users further refine their nature observation capacity and connectedness.

Nature connectedness and mindfulness go hand in hand and enhance each other. So, by practicing the nature awareness exercises, you will automatically become more mindful in your everyday life.

To make this transition into the everyday life easier for you, the exercises often point out explicitly the parallels between the inner world and the outer world.

- The app helps users cultivate and stay aware of their connectedness with nature by visualizing their personal history (i.e. quotes, photos, and exercises).


*** Our vision 🌎

Some of mankind’s greatest achievements were made while man was out in nature contemplating mindfully in silence.

At reconnect we believe that everyone is born nature lover and has an inborn need for nature contact.

With our app we aim to spark the light of love for nature in humans and so strengthen the weakened bond between humans and nature.

We believe that the stronger our connection with Earth becomes, the more peaceful and healthier we become and the more effectively we can address the environmental challenges of our time.

*** Your support ❤

At reconnect we are continuously striving to ensure a high content quality and developing new ways to help people reconnect with nature.

At the same time we firmly distance ourselves from adding app features that will make you stick to your phone since our aim is to help people maximize their nature time and not the time they spend on their phones.

But we can only achieve this with your support. If you like the app, please share it with others or rate it in the app store. The more people who feel connected to nature, the healthier and more peaceful planet Earth will become. Thank you 🙏

Ratings and reviews

I love this app but get frustrated when I try to take photos and I just get a blank screen and it won't save them. I think this stops the 2 dots from moving more closely together. I wish you could take photos as normal on your phone and add them later. I sometimes uninstall and reinstall in the hope that this has got better. I love the quotes and suggestions though which is why I keep persisting!

Please add the ability to upload photos we've already taken so we can still journal at a later time, or when there isn't time to do it on the spot. *Ah, thank you developers! Looking forward to the update for that!

For anyone inspired by time in nature, this is a beautifully designed app that truly let's you capture moments of of joy and put it in a jar for later.
