New: The Thought Check — turn a circling thought into a kinder sentence. Five gentle steps.
Loud mind? Malva makes it quiet.
Malva is the self-help app for people who think too much — night spiralers, decision doubters, conversation replayers and future worriers.
A CALM SENTENCE EVERY MORNING
Your daily card: no forced positivity — mild, honest sentences for loud minds. Also as a widget on your home screen, offline and reliable.
SOS QUICK RELIEF — ALWAYS FREE
Racing thoughts? Two taps take you to 5-4-3-2-1 grounding, calm breathing, a brain dump or a thought stop. No account, no internet, in the middle of the night. SOS stays free forever — with or without a subscription.
YOUR HONEST CHECK-IN
"How loud is your mind right now?" One turn of the dial, nothing more. No streaks, no guilt — calm can't be forced.
40 EXERCISES FOR YOUR SITUATION
Falling asleep, decisions, replaying conversations, future worries, self-criticism: short 2–5 minute exercises, step by step.
21 DAYS: STEP OFF THE THOUGHT SPIRAL
Understand, interrupt, anchor — a gentle program at your own pace. If you pause, you simply continue.
THE THOUGHT CHECK
A thought that keeps circling? Five gentle questions lead you to a kinder, more honest sentence. Your clarified thoughts live in a private archive.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account, no tracking, no data sharing. Everything you tell Malva stays on your device.
HONESTLY, UP FRONT
Malva is self-help — not a substitute for therapy, diagnosis or treatment, and not built for crisis support. If you're seriously struggling, the app points you to real helplines right away.
