WHAT'S INSIDE
AI Coach for emotional regulation
Livie is your AI coach for navigating emotions, and she works two ways.
Free talk, anytime. Bring any topic you need — a fight, a deadline, a bad night, a thought you can't put down — and get instant guidance. No judgment, no waiting, no appointment.
Or take a guided path: 5-minute sessions that walk you through it, step by step.
Role Play: rehearse real-life scenarios
Roleplay the conversation before you have it. Practice saying "no", asking for a raise, protecting a boundary, or making up after a fight — or build your own scenario and let Livie play it out with you. Feedback without fear.
A personal path to your patterns
Set a clear, achievable goal — challenging negative thoughts, holding your ground under pressure, improving your self-image. Choose your direction and we'll get you there with evidence-based techniques and a daily streak.
Calm in the moment
Breathing exercises and calming sounds to bring the stress response down when it spikes, wind the day down, and set yourself up for better sleep.
A journal that tells you something back
Journal what happened and Liven turns it into a map of your patterns — plus a Phrasebook of the exact words to use next time.
Mindfulness and mental health care that fits your day
Self-care between meetings: check in, name what you feel, take one small action.
Bite-size knowledge
Over 100 years of research into how emotions, thoughts, and actions drive our unconscious "auto-pilot" behaviors — distilled into bite-sized insights you can use in your own decisions.

It’s only been a couple of days being on the app, but I have seen the ad’s for a while and once again “procrastinated” on trying it out. As I am in the Dopamine section at the moment it is so great to see you can access other areas from childhood traumas, procrastination and adhd to name a few, the processes in the app are easy and enjoyable and motivating, yes I am spending a little more time on my phone but i am doing productive works that is helping my mood shift to a better place and slowly bringing my happiness back again. It’s not just the help of Liven, we have to do the work also otherwise Liven is just another tool. Good luck and thank you Liven!

Scam

Sold me the app for a reasonable fee (approx $30AUD) for 3 months which I thought was well worth it at the sign up phase as of course they make the app seem amazing. After a few hours of using it I realised it was just another app providing barely any value so I deleted and stopped using it. Fast forward a few months and I see $100 taken out of my account. After complaining to the customer service team I’m hit with a generic reply stating it’s my fault and that all subscription fees and processing information is “clearly” outlined, which it is not as I wouldn’t be so stupid to pay $100 for this terrible app. Considering how many negative reviews there are stating the same issue, they know that they are unclear but want to put the blame on their customers. Complete money grab and dishonest company, I’m quite shocked and disgusted as I’ve never had an experience like this before mainly because anything I’ve subscribed to I’ve been completely aware of the full cost, renewal date etc. Disgraceful, and praying on people who are trying to help themselves.

STAY AWAY

If you’re even considering downloading 'theliven', do yourself a favour and run in the opposite direction. My experience with this app was nothing short of infuriating—a perfect storm of opaque billing, appalling support, and insultingly inadequate compensation.Subscription Trap: Managed Outside the App Store Unlike reputable apps that use the App Store’s secure and transparent subscription system, 'theliven' manages its subscriptions externally. This means you don’t get the usual safeguards or easy cancellation options. Instead, you’re left navigating a confusing web of emails and third-party payment processors, making it far too easy for them to continue charging you even after you think you’ve cancelled.Bill Shock for an App I Never Used Imagine my surprise when I was hit with a $60 AUD charge for an app I never used. I never got value, never even made it past the sign-up screens—just a hefty bill for the privilege of being ignored. This isn’t an isolated incident: countless other reviewers report being charged for months after cancellation, or being billed multiple times for a single subscription.Support That Redefines 'Appalling' When I reached out for help, the best they could offer was a 50% refund—yes, you read that right, they kept half the money for absolutely nothing—and, as if to add insult to injury, they threw in a generic e-book on “self-love.” I can assure you, nothing about this experience inspired self-love—only rage.Final Verdict: Stay Away
Waste the money

The features that it actually offers are actually pointless because at the end of the day if you’re struggling with focus or motivation this app requires you to be able to pay attention to videos on how to be yourself to me. It’s quite patronising and I wish I hadn’t spent money on it and I would recommend other Either. It has a lot of work to be done in order for it to actually be a proper. That would actually support people they need to look at other apps and actually incorporate some of the features from there in order to make it better. Just journals or diaries but maybe video diaries and actual stuff you can interact with and put goals and targets. Like a checklist of things that you want to try and do or for those of us that need medication reminders and being able to interact with it a lot better. At the moment, it’s just pretty much a video base get over yourself app that likes actual compassion and heart.
