About this app

App Store Game of the Day
Meet Betwixt, the cozy story-based game that helps you master your thoughts and emotions, improve your self-awareness and wellbeing, and ease rumination.

Unlike an emotion tracker or a journaling app, Betwixt takes you on a guided immersive adventure deep into the mysteries of your own mind. On this epic inner journey, you’ll reconnect with your wisest self and unlock a whole range of self-awareness powers:

• Improve your emotional intelligence, self care and coping skills
• Calm your nerves and soothe overwhelming feelings
• Uncover new paths to self improvement, self actualization and growth
• Tap into your subconscious through the power of story
• Identify your values to increase your motivation, sense of gratitude and life purpose
• Deepen your self knowledge to help you in overcoming sadness, resentment, low self esteem, fixed mindset, negative perception, insecurities.

💡 WHAT MAKES BETWIXT WORK
Betwixt is a relaxing self-reflection game that draws on decades of psychology research and practice into how we feel, think and behave. It includes tools for emotion regulation and self reflection, journal prompts, elements of CBT, mindfulness approaches, Jungian theory and others. Together, these methods work to help you find courage, clarity, and calm.

An immersive experience
In Betwixt, you become the hero (or heroine) of an interactive adventure through a dreamlike world that responds to your thoughts and feelings. We’ve used immersive storytelling and sounds to create an alternative for people who find a CBT diary too dry, and struggle to engage with mindfulness, breathing apps, emotion trackers and journaling.

Betwixt stands out by offering a creative, engaging approach that removes distractions, improves your focus, motivation and mindset.

Evidence-based
Independent psychology research shows that Betwixt can significantly reduce emotion dysregulation, with effects that can last months. For years, we’ve been working with researchers to make the science of self-awareness and resilience accessible to anyone. You can find an overview of our research studies and collaborations on our site at https://www.betwixt.life/

I think Betwixt fulfils its purpose. It definitely does teach some of the things you would learn about in good therapy. I didn't really learn anything but it does reaffirm what I've previously learnt. Even for me this app does function as a way of coming to myself when stressed. Its dream scenarios are well written and meditative. I do think the pricing is a bit steep but worth it if you're struggling without much guidance or need that sort of external reminder.

Chapter one was very good; it's essentially a guided visualisation exercise but with nice music and it encourages more meaningful self-reflection. I would certainly have continued more if the 'unlock free content' button weren't placed behind the buttons at the bottom of my phone preventing me from selecting that option. Nonetheless, glad something like this exists.

Oh, I’m so sorry! You must be on a phone we haven’t optimised for. If you still have the app on your phone, you could send a bug report (in the menu at the top of the screen) and our dev team should be able to sort this out for you.

Saw this advertised online for adhd but I'm not sure how it's meant to help. Couldn't get a read on what it's all about from the free introduction, and the rest is pay walled with a max price of up to £200. You can request more for free, but it doesn't really seem worth the request. Personally, I found the intro slow and boring. Nothing happened, and the fastest text speed was still pretty slow. It was more like an AI-guided meditation, and my adhd is too severe for anything like that.
