What Each App Offers

Sanvello offers mood tracking, coping tools, and community support for anxiety and depression. It is useful for overall wellbeing and for noticing patterns in how you feel. It does not focus on dating, approach, or rejection, and it does not provide dating-specific exposure or thought-work.

ConfidenceConnect offers CBT (exposure ladder, thought records, behavioral experiments, post-event processing) tailored to dating. You get structure for approach anxiety, overthinking after dates, and rejection tolerance. Content is informed by "Models" and "No More Mr. Nice Guy." No pickup tactics.

Dating Anxiety: Why ConfidenceConnect Fits Better

If dating anxiety is your main concern, ConfidenceConnect is the better choice.
