COGITO is a free, ad-free self-help smartphone app designed for emotional well-being, requiring no registration or personal data. Developed by the Neuropsychology & Psychotherapy Research Unit at UKE Hamburg, it delivers daily exercises rooted in CBT and metacognitive training to boost mood, self-esteem and life satisfaction.
Most mental health apps face low engagement, with users abandoning them within the first week. People struggle to maintain habits, track progress, and stay motivated, while generic reminders often feel impersonal. The system was designed to boost sustained engagement with personalized feedback loops while ensuring clinical effectiveness.
We developed a comprehensive multi-pronged engagement system designed to support user motivation and progress through structured, personalized features. Built with behavioral psychology principles, it offers accessible tools to enhance engagement and track mental well-being journey.
