iPhone
Everything in Sunward is now free — including the doctor report. No subscription, no unlock, nothing held back. Just the whole app, for anyone who needs it.
You started a medication to feel better. But weeks in, the hardest question is the one you can't answer: is this actually working?
Sunward answers it.
Take a quick, validated check-in — the same PHQ-9 and GAD-7 questionnaires your doctor uses (depression and anxiety). Log a mood when you want to. Sunward turns it into something you can finally see: your score over time, what changed when your dose changed, and the progress depression tries to talk you out of believing.
WHAT YOU GET
• Validated check-ins (PHQ-9 / GAD-7) — screening, not guesswork
• Your trend over time — watch the line actually move
• Dose intelligence — "since 100 mg: down 5 points, nausea resolved"
• A doctor-ready report — walk into every appointment with the full picture
• Gentle reminders for doses, refills, and appointments
• A private journal for the moments behind the numbers
• Calming tools — a guided breath and a grounding exercise for hard moments
• Apple Health integration — your data, in your own record
A ONE-TIME PRICE
Apps like this are usually expensive, or a subscription that never ends. Sunward is a single, deliberately low one-time purchase — priced as low as we could so more people can afford to know whether their treatment is working. Pay once. It's yours.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account. No server. Your data lives on your iPhone and in your own Apple Health record, and leaves only when you export it.
Sunward uses validated screening questionnaires (PHQ-9, GAD-7). Screening is not a diagnosis, and Sunward is not a medical device — you and your clinician interpret what it shows. If you're in crisis, call or text 988, or your local emergency number.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Sunward is free now. All of it.
The doctor report was the one thing behind a paywall, and it's the most useful thing the app makes — so it's open. No subscription, no unlock, nothing left to buy. If Sunward has helped and you'd like to chip in, there's a tip jar in More, and that's the only place money is mentioned.
YOUR CARE TEAM
Most people don't see just one doctor. Add your psychiatrist, your therapist, your family doctor — and keep as many appointments as you actually have, each with its own reminder, named for whoever you're seeing. Anything you'd already saved carries over.
YOUR DAY, AT A GLANCE
An "Up next" card shows the one thing to do now. A dose-streak strip shows two weeks of consistency in a single look.
A CLEANER JOURNAL
Your moments and check-ins are grouped by day, so a day reads as one story. The calendar and your milestones sit at the top, a tap away.
PRIVATE, IF YOU WANT IT
Lock the Journal behind Face ID.
MAKE IT YOURS
A new all-black Onyx theme, plus your choice of a serif or sans typeface — independent of the theme.
SLEEP, WITHOUT A WATCH
No Apple Watch at night? Sunward asks how you slept when it needs to, and a single night starts counting right away.
HABITS COUNT
Your habits now feed the Sunward Score. The score also shows what each part is really contributing, and says plainly when something needs an Apple Watch instead of pretending it's still gathering data.
ALSO
• The breathing exercise is guided by haptics, so you can do it with your eyes closed
• Side effects show where a symptom stands now, not every note you've ever made
• Send feedback or rate the app from More
• Fixed: the weekly refill reminder now actually repeats, and removing a medication clears its reminder
