Mental health app - brutally honest feedback wanted πŸ™‹πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

After an especially tumultuous 2 years (including surviving cancer), we've finally got a beta of our app going. Mental health has been such a huge personal struggle for me, and I know I'm not alone in the last year having been ESPECIALLY challenging.I'm super excited and nervous to have this app in beta, but I know it's at a stage where we need lots of feedback.If you're someone who struggles with their mental health, and would be up for hopping on a call to try out the app (and be willing to give me super frank honest feedback; I promise I cannot be offended), I'd seriously love your help! πŸ™πŸ»
I'd be happy to hop on a call. I've tried out a bunch of apps in this space so keen to see what you're building.
Oh amazing, thank you so much! I've send you a PM. :)
I might be interested. What exactly is the apps intended purpose?
Hi Karen, we want to make knowledge about mental health accessible and engaging to people - from therapy skills, research findings to tools that give you insight into habits that influence your mental health. Let me know if you're up for a feedback call and I'll reach out via PM to set up a time :)
Hi Alicia - I am happy to help and to discuss where I'm coming from! Also, if you're interested in a younger person's input, I've got a 21-year-old daughter who may be willing to participate and comes from a good perspective. Congrats on your battle against cancer -- that is AWESOME! And best of success with this app which is combating another tough opponent

Hi! I'd love to help out if I can as well!

@melissang There are all sorts of patient engagement and feedback companies, have you checked any of these out?
I'd love to help if you need another tester. I worked for a mental health start-up previously, so have some idea of what I'd be expecting to see :)

I would be happy to test coming from a different angle, I'm an SVP at a publishing house and we are pitched mental health content daily. Might give a different lens to the discussion. :)

Hi @melissang! Congrats on the beta!! Very happy to review and provide feedback. I work for What If Ventures (https://www.whatif.vc/), and we're a VC focused on mental health - so as you can imagine, I see a lot of startups/apps in this space, so hopefully that POV can be useful for you. I also have personal experience with a mental health disorder, and was a previous founder in this space.Please DM if you want to chat!
I would love to help out! I've used some mental health apps and also am a product designer with a strong research background, so I could offer some feedback on the product front :)

Hey Candice, thank you so much! I’ve dropped you a PM. πŸ™‚
I was a product manager/UXer for mobile apps and now work in user-centred content design. I’ve tried a few different mental health apps and haven’t yet found one that fits (I had one that was perfect and then they changed it!). Happy to give feedback both from a personal and professional perspective. And I can absolutely be brutally honest (but I’ll be constructive while doing so!)
