Every day you get one real-world social challenge — something small and doable, not a performance. You complete it, reflect on how it went, and your crab evolves. The challenges are graded: they start small and get progressively harder as you go. The science behind it is CBT and exposure therapy — your brain rewires by doing, not by reading about doing.
Freewill is trial-only — everyone starts with a 7-day free trial of Freewill Pro. After the trial, Pro is $5.99/month or $39.99/year and unlocks every daily challenge. Freewill Custom is an AI-personalized challenge track built around your specific situation. Available now in the app.
Open your iPhone Settings, tap your name, then Subscriptions, find Freewill, and tap Cancel. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period. You won't be charged again after that.
Nothing bad. Your crab waits. Your streak resets, but your crab and all your progress stay exactly where they are. Missing a day isn't failure — it's just a day. Come back tomorrow.
You can shuffle to a different challenge once per day with Pro. If something feels genuinely unsafe or inappropriate for your situation, skip it and use the shuffle. The goal is to push your edge, not blow past it.
No. Freewill is a wellness and self-improvement app, not a clinical product. It's grounded in real science, but it's not a substitute for therapy or professional mental health care. If you're dealing with severe anxiety or distress, please talk to a licensed professional.
Almost everything stays on your phone — your onboarding answers, reflections, challenge ratings, and journal never leave your device. The only things we sync are your account info and a small set of progress numbers so you don't lose your streak if you switch phones. We don't run analytics, don't show ads, and never sell your data. Full details in the Privacy Policy.
You've emerged. Your crab is out of its shell. You move into free roam, where you can keep doing challenges from the full bank at your own pace, with no daily pressure. The habits you've built are yours to keep.
Yes. Go to Settings inside the app and tap Delete Account. This immediately removes your account and synced data from our servers and wipes your on-device data. Note: deleting your account doesn't cancel an active subscription — do that separately in your iPhone's App Store settings first.
