Globally, around 11 percent of the population are estimated to have a mental health disorder. Factors including social stigma, limited healthcare access and cost can prohibit those with mental health issues from receiving support. However, wellness apps have offered another route through self-help.
Users turn to wellness apps to help with stress reduction, reduce burnout and improve sleep. To do this, companies offer tools such as mediation guides, daily affirmations and sleep tracking tools.
Many of the apps focus on quick daily engagement, with a morning affirmation, a regular goal or guided mediations. These sometimes include traditional mental health services like interaction with a therapist, although generally they focus more on mindfulness.

Services offered by apps have expanded to cover some of the gap left by conventional treatment.
