Recovery Record, free for iPhones and Androids, is probably the most popular among apps designed to support recovery from an eating disorder. The free app for Apple and Android allows users to log everything they eat and how they felt doing it.
All of this information is put into a simple chart to help users and their caregivers track trends and achievement. Treatment-team members, including moms and dads, can long in to see what’s going on and how to best support the user. The app also has a virtual support network where users can share (only if they wish to) their progress and encourage one another.
Rise Up and Recover, designed by a woman who recovered from an eating disorder, is another free app for iPhones and Androids to support people dealing with eating and exercise issues.
Users can log what they eat and how they feel, in general, and they can export this to a PDF to share with their treatment team or family members. Users can also schedule motivational reminders to pop up and keep them focused.
Teenager Kirsten “Kissy” Hertog created The Kissy Project, a blog and app, while recovering from an eating disorder to motivate and support other teens seeking recovery. The free app for iPhones and Androids offers weekly appreciation tasks and “butterflies” as rewards, as well as motivational quotes, videos, and songs
MindShift is an app designed specifically to help teens and young adults face and cope with anxiety. It aims to help users change the way they think about anxiety, which is rampant in the mind of eating disorders.
