Take control of your negative thoughts

Reframe is an app for iPhone and Android. You write down a thought that weighs on you. The app names the thinking traps in it and offers a fairer way to see the same situation.

How it works

1. Write down the thought. Use your own words, the way it sounds in your head.
2. See the thinking traps. Reframe names the cognitive distortions in the thought, such as all-or-nothing thinking or jumping to conclusions, and explains how each one shows up in what you wrote.
3. Read the reframe. For each claim in the thought you get a more accurate way to look at it, and a few sentences you can say to yourself when the thought comes back.

What it costs

You can reframe 3 thoughts every 7 days for free. Your journal, your patterns, your saved thoughts, the thinking trap library and the support resources are always free. Reframe Plus is an optional subscription that removes the limit on reframes. You choose a yearly or a monthly plan. The yearly plan starts with a 7-day free trial if you have not used one before. Prices differ per country; the app shows the price in your currency before you subscribe.

Your data

There is no account. Your journal, your saved thoughts and your name stay on your phone. To write a reframe, the text of your thought is sent to our server and processed by an external AI service; it is not stored on our server. The AI service keeps it for up to 30 days, or for up to 2 years if its safety systems flag it, and does not use it to train AI models. The app records usage statistics on our own server, without the text of your thoughts and without an identifier stored on your phone; you can switch them off in the app. There is no advertising and no tracking across apps or websites. The details are in the privacy policy.

Self-help, not therapy

Reframe is a self-help tool. It is not therapy and not medical advice, it cannot make a diagnosis, and it is not a medical device. If negative thoughts keep getting in the way of your life, talk to your doctor or a mental health professional.
