An app for anxiety that costs nothing and tracks nobody
Many anxiety apps hide useful features behind a subscription. DearAnxiety gives you every feature for free, with no adverts or tracking. Your entries stay on your iPhone.
Download on the App Store Free. No ads, no tracking.
One cat for each anxiety
When you feel anxious, create a cat for that specific anxiety. The cat is an inner representation of the anxiety. Its face and posture follow how bad the anxiety feels, so a glance at your cats shows you which anxieties are active.
Record what actually happened
This is the part most apps leave out. You rate how bad an anxiety feels from 1 to 10, then you come back later and record the real outcome: better, the same, worse, or finished. When the anxiety ends, you rescue the cat. Over time you build your own record of how your predictions compared with reality.
Private by design
There is no analytics or third-party tracking. Your entries, photos and voice notes stay on your device, protected while your phone is locked. You can export a copy for yourself or delete everything at once.
No subscription and no upsell
Unlimited cats, every cat style, photos, voice notes, guided check-ins and pattern insights are all included. There is no premium tier, because there is no tier.
