Anxiety: There is an app for that. A systematic review of anxiety apps

ConclusionsAt the moment, although anxiety apps have the potential to enhance access to mental health care, there is a marked discrepancy between the wealth of commercially available apps, and the paucity of data regarding their efficacy and effectiveness. Although the great promise of apps is their ability to increasing access to evidence‐based mental health, the field is not quite there yet and the full potential of apps for treating anxiety has yet to be exploited.
