Settings

Make MindLift yours — goal, reminders, appearance, language.

What you can change

Goal

Change your current goal at any time. Switching goals immediately changes which affirmations appear and which categories are prioritized.

Tip: Update this as your needs shift. Many people start with "Reduce Anxiety" and move to "Build Confidence" over time.

Notifications

Set a daily reminder to check in. Research shows brief daily touchpoints with mental wellness tools are more effective than long, infrequent sessions.

Tip: Morning (7–9am) works well for affirmations. Evening (8–10pm) is better for processing the day with a reframe.

Appearance

Switch between light mode and dark mode. Dark mode is easier on the eyes in low-light environments — especially useful for nighttime check-ins.

Tip: If you use MindLift before bed, enable dark mode to reduce eye strain and preserve your natural sleep onset.

Language

MindLift supports English and Spanish. Switching languages changes the affirmations, reframe prompts, and category labels throughout the app.

Tip: If you think in two languages, try using the app in the language that feels most natural for emotional processing — often your first language.
