User Reviews

Reviewers largely praise Dare for being life-changing, with strong support and practical tools via the app and book. Top positives include compassionate guidance, actionable daily dares, and overall accessibility. Main drawbacks center on cost and the audio-centric format, with some users wanting more formats and integration with other treatments for consistent results.
Pros
  • Life-changing and lifesaving for anxiety and panic attacks.
  • The combination of the DARE book and the app provides a comprehensive, effective program.
  • Compassionate, caring guidance from Barry, Aida, and Michelle; it feels like someone understands and cares.
  • Practical, actionable tools with daily dares and grounding techniques that help maintain progress.
  • Portable, easy to use, and affordable relative to other mental health programs.
Cons
  • Pricing and ongoing subscription costs can be high; many users feel the price isn't worth it, and academy classes can be very expensive.
  • Reliance on audio recordings can be limiting for users who can't or prefer not to listen; more written resources or formats would help.
  • Results vary and the program is not a stand-alone cure for anxiety; it works best as part of a broader treatment plan.

Can’t log in. I have not used this app in over six months because I was doing fine. But last night a panic attack hit me out of the blue. First thing I do is run to this app. Frustrating when i needed it most I can’t get in and I have a premium account. I have a ticket in to support. Just waiting to hear back. I love this app! The app and the book have been a critical part of my overcoming parts of my mental illness. Fingers crossed that this gets resolved quickly

It’s been truly helping me with my anxiety & especially panic attacks, now I have had my own setbacks with anxiety & panic but this app & book has helped me truly learn how to help me accept & acknowledge what I feel & know that everyone is different in this journey. Highly recommend this app & book
