.Get Mental Health App Development to Improve Lives
Keep track of user data, secure their private information, and enable new digital services, all with one tool. JetBase’s mental health apps are the all-in-one way to improve lives.
Mental Health Challenges and IT Solutions
Therapy costs are extremely high
In-app sessions eliminate a doctor’s need for an office and an assistant, resulting in lower overhead. Thus, prices for online therapy are much more democratic.
Hard to stick to mindfulness habits
Apps will provide regular reminders and encouragement to help people stick to their wellness routines. Gamifying mental health breakthroughs helps reinforce them and push people to achieve more.
Difficult to get older people invested
Mental health app developers can specifically target their creations to an older audience with accessibility features. This will help get them interested in mental health and wellness.
Choice of therapists is limited
Using an app, people can find a therapist anywhere in the world as long as they speak the same language. They can work with a professional to address their mental health issues and get better.
Attending in-person classes can be intimidating
Those seeking to try meditation or group therapy for the first time can do so anonymously through apps. Mental health app developers can tailor their solutions to help start one’s wellness journey without going into the spotlight.
Key Benefits of Mental Health Apps
Improved Patient Care and Engagement
Mental health apps are available 24/7, providing support beyond clinical settings. Moreover, they can help tailor treatment plans to individual patient needs. Progress tracking, gamification, and reminders will also help keep patients engaged.
Cost-Efficiency
Healthcare professionals can reach out to their patients via digital channels, lowering operation costs. Moreover, they can do a large chunk of admin work, such as scheduling and payment processing, in an app with just a few clicks.
Wider Reach
An app allows healthcare institutions to transcend geographical limitations, opening much bigger markets. You can reach out to millions of potential users who can promote the app via word-of-mouth. Some of them will sign up for Premium tiers, boosting your revenues.
Better Data
Understanding the market and its preferences is easier when you have lots of actionable data, which is easy to collect with mental health apps. You can spot therapy trends, get new ideas about unique features to promote your brand, and, subsequently, capture a bigger market share.
Core Types of Mental Health Apps
Meditation
Perfect for at-home therapeutic sessions, these apps guide users through meditation and breathing techniques. They are designed to be calming, immersive, and easy to use, attracting millions of users.
Digital Therapy
A direct link between doctors and patients, these telehealth apps serve as a space for one-on-one meetings and discussions. They help make therapy available to everyone, regardless of location or income, with many such apps donating free therapy hours to users.
Mindfulness
Living in the moment and centering yourself are essential parts of mental wellness, and such apps serve that purpose well. They offer reminders to stop and contemplate one’s being, give tips for a healthier lifestyle, and promote habits that improve one’s daily routine.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
CBT is a major branch of therapy in general, so many apps have sprung up centered around this specific approach. Some offer knowledge bases to help people get into CBT, while others have a selection of therapists who specialize in this method.
Mental Health Apps That Really Worked
Headspace
With more than 10 million downloads on Google Play, Headspace is one of the leading mental health apps for meditation and mindfulness. The app is so popular that it recently launched its own Netflix show and has deals with multiple celebrities to create custom content for it.
Calm
Boasting over 4 million paying subscribers, Calm is an example of a mental health app monetizing successfully. Its celebrity-voiced Sleep Stories offerings boost the company’s popularity, while its sleek mobile apps keep the users coming back for more.
Better Help
This therapy-focused app is one of the market mainstays, outlasting others with its 11-year tenure. Its high rating and popularity are a testament to the app’s simple design and high optimization, with therapy services available any time of day from over 35,000 therapists.

Jetbase’s Take on Mental Health
We clearly see that mental health applications are gaining popularity. It is happening due to the increasing amount of information that passes through a person every day. Such applications should be perfectly thought out from the point of view of UX/UI, and the number of bugs should be minimized so as not to irritate the user.
Sergei Skirev, CTO at JetBase
Telemedicine Solution
Our team of mental health app developers built a multiplatform app that directly connects patients and doctors. The app offers relief to both those with physical issues and people in a mental health crisis. Real-time chatting guarantees that everyone finds support, while extensive scheduling features allow people to plan their therapy appointments ahead of time.
Remote Monitoring
While creating a remote monitoring solution, we wanted to make sure it was non-intrusive yet effective at gathering data on all manner of indicators. Our devs built a predictive system leveraging AI that helps both doctors and patients spot potential problems. As a result, a patient can anticipate mental health issues and contact their doctors, who’ll see the problem’s full history.

How should one vet mental health app developers before hiring them?
Take a look at their portfolio and make sure they have experience with the exact type of software you’re seeking. Confirm that their tech stack can deliver the appropriate features and optimization. It’s also a good idea to ask if they’re ready to tackle regulatory challenges, which can pose a problem for any health-related app.
How long can mental health app development take?
This will depend heavily on the type of app and its complexity. While you can reasonably make a simple app within two to three months, a more unique and challenging project will take much longer—in some cases, a year. Contact us to get an estimate for your project.
Do you provide post-launch support and maintenance for the app?
Yes, our professional team of mental health app developers will always offer to maintain the product and provide updates and bug fixes as needed. You can negotiate how long this arrangement will last when you sign the contract. If the project is successful enough to warrant the investment, it’s quite possible to spend years on post-launch work.
