Apps have been created for games and for managing weight and physical health problems, but mental health apps are on the rise too. Mental health apps range from diagnostics to management and treatment. Many apps even allow patients to share their information with their doctors and mental health professionals via the interface. They have the potential to bridge gaps in treatment (almost half of teens with mental illness aren't getting the treatment they need), but also the potential to do harm. Getting help from an app is more convenient, less expensive and avoids potential exposure to stigma, meaning more people might seek some kind of treatment. At the same time, could the ability to just use one of these apps steer people away from getting the in-person diagnosis and treatment they really need? And with no medically established system for judging these apps, how do we know if they are effective?
