I really enjoy this app and find it helpful. The daily check-ins have helped me immensely in understanding and reflecting on my emotions and why I’m feeling them. The app has helped me regain control of emotional spirals (ruminating thoughts, catastrophizing, etc) and it’s also just really fun and cute. I genuinely think everyone can benefit from using this app. My one and only gripe is the price of the “Plus” subscription which is not at all required in order to use and enjoy the app. (I know the devs are very cognizant of affordability and making sure that critical features aren’t paywalled so that even people who can’t afford a subscription can use and find significant value in their apps. I really appreciate that.) I also use and subscribe to Bearable, another great app by the same devs, and I’d like to subscribe to Foxtale but an annual subscription is more than twice the price of Bearable. It would be nice if there were a savings bundle to subscribe to both at once.But even without a subscription it’s an easy 5 stars from me!

I am someone with autism and ADHD and I don’t use many apps (especially self-help ones) because they haven’t ever really helped me. This one I was surprised with though, because I’m actually using and enjoying it.I like to end my day with sending my little buddy on an adventure so that they come back sometime the next morning and I can see what we’ve learned about emotions together. The app also has a lot of useful techniques for calming anxiety, dealing with embarrassment, loneliness, anger, sadness, and other feelings.You can get by pretty easily without paying for anything, and although I do wish you could add more custom quests without a subscription. However I don’t think it costs too much so that might be okay. Paying for the subscription only really gives you an opportunity to buy more cosmetics from the store and customize quests a little.Something really interesting about this app is I haven’t heard any audio from it. I don’t know if that was an intentional feature or if it’s a bug. I think I would enjoy some nice little sounds when I click things or when I send my little guy on an adventure, but it’s not something I’m going to stop using this because of.Overall I like it, and it might be something worth trying out!

Adorable and thoughtfully designed. Really love the quick descriptions of the emotions - very useful (and can we have more soon?! 😊) Love the journaling as quests. The collection of responses that come from those little gems of wisdom are so unique. If you’ve used Finch, the Self Care Pet there are some very familiar elements in Foxtale, but I prefer the groundedness of Foxtale. I am a mental health therapist and highly recommend this app for personal development and emotional processing.The cost may seem prohibitive, but hear me out. It’s a quality app, provides lots of value. I for one am tired of fast fashion tech.

A fun and easy way to reflect on one’s own emotions and experiences while also having some fun objectives. A lot of cosmetics are locked behind the plus subscription but all of the basic functions are free which is more than I can say about other journaling apps. All in all I’d say this is the best experience I’ve found so far, highly recommend for anyone dealing with anxiety, depression, anger, or even just wants somewhere to store their thoughts. Also the interactions you have with your fox friend is just downright adorable. :)
