MoodFire features: tools for anxiety, stress and mood

MoodFire brings six everyday tools together in one app for iPhone and Android: Check In, Reframe, Breathe, Unwind, Spark and Ground. They draw on established approaches such as CBT thought records, slow breathing and the 5-4-3-2-1 grounding technique, and none takes more than a few minutes.

Alongside them are Insights, which turns your check-ins into simple trends, optional wellbeing reviews, and companion apps for Apple Watch and Wear OS. Here’s what each one does, and when to reach for it.

Check In

Daily mood tracker

Track your mood daily with MoodFire's mood tracker. Spot patterns, identify triggers & understand your anxiety better.

Reframe

CBT thought diary

Challenge anxious thoughts with MoodFire's CBT thought reframing tool. Cognitive restructuring, built on CBT principles, to break negative thinking patterns.

Breathe

Guided breathing

Guided breathing at a slow, coherent 5.5-second pace, with a calming orb and haptics. One, three or five-minute sessions.

Unwind

Bilateral audio

Calming bilateral audio in MoodFire. EMDR-style sounds that move gently between your ears, for winding down.

Ground

Ground yourself during anxiety with MoodFire's 5-4-3-2-1 sensory technique. Step-by-step guided grounding for panic & overwhelm.

Insights

Mood trends

MoodFire's Insights turn your check-ins into simple mood trends: weekly patterns, tool comparisons and a Sunday digest. All computed on your device.

Watch Companion

Apple Watch and Wear OS

MoodFire's companion for Apple Watch and Wear OS. Log mood check-ins and run guided breathing from your wrist. Everything syncs back to your phone.

Wellbeing Reviews

Inspired by GAD-7 and PHQ-9

MoodFire's optional wellbeing reviews use questionnaires inspired by GAD-7 and PHQ-9 for a steadier read on your mood. Private, gentle, never a diagnosis.

Which tool, and when

When anxiety rises fast. Start with Breathe to slow your body down, then use Ground to bring your attention back to what’s around you.

When your thoughts go round in circles. Reframe helps you write the thought down and look at it from another angle, the way a CBT thought record does.

When you’re winding down at night. Unwind plays calming bilateral audio through headphones. It’s a way to wind down, not a treatment.

When you want a daily habit. A Check In in the morning and evening, plus three Spark prompts, takes a couple of minutes.

When you want the bigger picture. Insights shows your patterns across the week, and an optional wellbeing review gives a steadier read from time to time.

How it fits together

If you’re not sure where to start, the 30-Day Plan sets you short daily tasks using these tools, personalised for you. Your check-ins feed Insights, which is worked out on your device, and on your watch you can check in or breathe from your wrist.

MoodFire is a subscription, and your first 7 days are free. It supports everyday wellbeing and isn’t a replacement for professional care. The FAQ covers how the subscription works.
