About the App
What is AngerApp?
AngerApp is a science-backed mobile application for iOS and Android that helps you manage acute anger and emotional stress. Its core feature is the Panic Button: one tap launches a personalized calming sequence in under 2 seconds, with no menus and no internet required. Beyond crisis response, AngerApp builds long-term emotional resilience through breathing exercises, meditation, guided self-hypnosis, a needs finder based on NVC/GFK, journal, analytics, and AI-powered personalization.
Is AngerApp a medical device or therapy replacement?
No. AngerApp is a self-help wellness application. It is not a medical device and does not replace professional psychological counseling, psychotherapy, or psychiatric treatment. If you are experiencing a mental health crisis, please contact emergency services or a mental health professional. See our Health Disclaimer →
Who is AngerApp for?
AngerApp is for anyone who experiences anger, stress, or emotional overwhelm in daily life: at work, in relationships, in traffic, or at home. It is particularly useful for people who want a fast, science-backed intervention available the moment they need it. It is also a helpful complement to existing therapy or coaching.
Does AngerApp require an account?
No account is required for Free tier features. Some features (AI chatbot, cloud sync, cross-device access) may require an account in Premium/Ultimate tiers. We will always offer a no-account baseline experience.
Is AngerApp available in multiple languages?
At launch (July 1, 2026), AngerApp is available in English and German. Additional languages are on the roadmap.
Features
What is the Panic Button?
The Panic Button is AngerApp's signature feature. It's a large, always-visible button on the app's main screen. One tap immediately launches your personalized calming sequence with no navigation, no decisions required. The sequence can include breathing exercises, grounding techniques, calming images, and affirmations. It works fully offline and launches in under 2 seconds.
Does AngerApp work offline?
Yes. All core features work without an internet connection. This is by design: anger doesn't wait for Wi-Fi. Every technique, audio session (after first download), and feature is available offline. AI features (chatbot, personalization) require an internet connection but degrade gracefully to offline mode.
What's the difference between Free, Premium, and Ultimate?
Free: Panic Button, 2 breathing exercises, 2 grounding techniques, calming pictures, 100% offline. Always free.
Premium ($49.99/yr): Everything in Free + full technique libraries, guided meditation, self-hypnosis, stories, NeedsFinder (NVC/GFK), chat simulator, journal, analytics.
Ultimate ($99.99/yr): Everything in Premium + AI chatbot, AI personalization, adaptive sequences, pattern recognition.
Can I customize my Panic Button sequence?
Yes. You can choose which techniques appear in your Panic Button sequence and in what order. Ultimate tier users also get AI-driven automatic optimization of their sequence based on what works best for them.
Are the meditation and hypnosis sessions downloadable?
Yes. All guided audio sessions (meditation, self-hypnosis) can be downloaded to your device for offline playback. Downloads happen over Wi-Fi on first access and are stored locally.
What is the NeedsFinder?
NeedsFinder is an interactive tool based on Marshall Rosenberg's Nonviolent Communication (NVC / GFK) framework. It guides you through identifying the unmet need beneath your anger, because anger is always a signal of a need, not just an emotion. By identifying the need, you can address it directly rather than expressing it destructively.
