What makes us different.
We're here to improve the world's mental health with practical, actionable tools. Our unique blend of industry expertise, firsthand lived experience, and obsession to always do better enables us to create solutions that are not only easy to use but also have a genuine impact in people's lives.
🤔 Why make it fun?
The truth is, many mental health apps feel like a doctor's office waiting room—minus the outdated magazines. Shmoody believes that the best mental health tools should be backed by science but don't need to feel science-y. We're convinced that the journey to better mental health can—and should—be enjoyable. After all, isn't fun the secret ingredient to staying committed in the long run?
Action Plans
Think of action plans like a step by step instruction manual on how to feel better. They are uniquely created based on how you feel that day.
Mood Tracker
A fun and personalized way to monitor emotions, allowing you to recognize patterns, understand triggers, and ultimately take better control of your moods.
Peer Support
A safe space to ask questions, share experiences, and find support from others navigating similar journeys—think of it as the positive side of social media.
Joy Time
Joy Time helps you discover (or rediscover!) what truly makes you happy and then organizes your favorites into a Joy Calendar, ensuring you regularly engage in activities that lift you up.
Audio Toolbox
Our Audio Toolbox is your go-to resource for mental fitness audio, featuring a life coaching audio series, breathing exercises, meditations, focus-enhancing music, binaural beats, and more!
