the 3D Life app
A check-in, a library you can listen to offline, three breathing patterns and a journal nobody else can read. Free on iPhone and Android — you do not have to be working with us to use it.
Today
Two taps. Notes optional.
Nobody can. Memory for mood is not a recording — it is rebuilt each time you reach for it, and it gets rebuilt to match how you feel now. On a bad week the brain will tell you, with total confidence, that it has always been like this.
That is the single most useful thing a ten-second check-in fixes. Not insight, not a score, not a diagnosis — a record made at the time, before today gets a chance to edit it. Six weeks of them, and the questions change: what does a good week have in it that a bad one doesn’t? What comes first, the poor sleep or the low day?
It is also the thing people abandon. So the whole app is built around making the check-in cost nothing: it is on your lock screen, your home screen, your watch, and inside the notification itself.
Two taps on the Today screen.
It arrives at a time you choose, with buttons on the notification itself — log it without opening anything.
Five taps live on the home screen, next to the weather.
Check in from the wrist, mid-walk, without the phone.
“Log my mood in 3D Life.”
Five screens. Nothing that needs a tutorial.
One screen, opened once a day. The check-in is the first thing on it — not buried under a dashboard — plus your streak, whatever you were last listening to, and anything assigned to you since yesterday.
The audio you would otherwise only hear in a session: relaxation, sleep, getting through a specific week. Plays with the screen off, keeps your place, and downloads to the phone so a train tunnel does not end it.
Timed and animated so the phone can stay in your hand or your pocket. It is the lowest-friction thing the app does, which is exactly why it is never behind anything.
Free text, searchable, with a timeline you can scroll back through. Entries write to the phone first and sync when there is a connection, so it works on a plane.
The same writing you can read on this site, and a good deal more of it. Categories, reading progress, save for later, and downloadable to read offline.
The check-in, your streak, and anything left for you since yesterday.

Recordings by section, with a player that keeps going when the screen locks.

Three patterns, paced on screen, with the phone face-down if you prefer.

Real screens go here once the app is built. The outlines are placeholders, and nothing about them is the final design.
The fuller version is switched on for the people we are working with, as part of the work. It can also be upgraded to the full version if you would rather work self-paced, without a therapist — pricing for that is still to be set.
Names to be settled — “Free” and “Working with us” are descriptions, not decisions.
the part nothing else does
After a session, your therapist can send the specific recording or the specific piece of reading that follows from what you talked about — and it is there on your Today screen, with a line from them saying why.
Not a content library you are left to search on your own at eleven at night. The thing they would have handed you on the way out, if it had been a piece of paper.
“Try this one on the nights it takes a while to drop off — we talked about why.”
Screenshot coming soon
Mood and journal entries are health information about you. We have built to that standard rather than to the industry’s.
Not your therapist, not whoever runs the app. There is no screen anywhere that shows it. If your therapist sends you something, all they see back is whether you opened it.
An adult account backs up: entries sync encrypted, so a new phone picks the history up where the old one left off. For a younger person they are written to the device and never sent to us at all — which means there is nothing to restore from. The trade is honest and stated at sign-up: lose the phone and the history goes with it.
If what you write suggests you are having a hard time, the app quietly puts the right numbers in front of you. That check happens on the device — the text is not sent anywhere for it, and nobody is alerted.
Nobody is watching what you write, and nothing escalates to a person. The app points you to help; it cannot be the help. If you need someone now: your GP, 111, or the Samaritans free on 116 123 — any hour, any day. If a life is at immediate risk, call 999.

Everything on our resources page is published to the app at the same time, from the same place. The website carries a selection so you can read it without downloading anything; the app carries the lot, keeps your place, and works with the aeroplane on.

Two questions, once a day, roughly a minute. The most disproportionate return of anything we teach.

What the brain is doing between sleep cycles, and why the thoughts that arrive then feel truer than they are.
early access
One email when the app is out, and occasionally something worth reading in the meantime. No launch date is promised here because there isn’t one yet.
We do not buy lists, we do not sell yours, and one click gets you off it permanently.
Everything here comes from the signed build scope. Nothing is on the App Store or Google Play yet, there is no launch date, and no price appears anywhere because the app itself is free to download and the upgrade is not yet priced. Screens, names and wording are all still open.
no cost, no commitment
A proper conversation, online or face to face. You describe what’s going on; we tell you honestly whether we’re the right people to help.
