Cognitive Psychology & Behavioral Science

Spot the glitch before it decides for you.

MindGlitches is an interactive iOS tool designed to catch cognitive biases, ride out compulsive impulses, and dismantle automatic thoughts with Socratic inquiry.

100% On-Device & Private. No accounts, no advertising, and zero data leaves your phone. Everything runs on Apple's SwiftData engine.

Three practical tools in one quiet app

01 • THE EXPERIMENT LAB

Test your mind in real time

Experience classic behavioral phenomena firsthand — including Anchoring, Confirmation Bias, Loss Aversion, Framing Effects, and the Sunk Cost Fallacy. Instead of reading about psychology, you test yourself first, then see the diagnostic breakdown of how your mind reacted.

02 • THE IMPULSE FIREWALL

Ride the 90-second neurochemical wave

Dopamine spikes and compulsive urges peak and crest within 90 seconds. MindGlitches provides a paced breathing wave to surf the urge, plus a Purchase De-glitcher that translates impulse price tags into your actual hours of life worked and 10-year compound value.

03 • SOCRATIC THOUGHT OVERRIDE

Evidence-based cognitive restructuring

Walk automatic thoughts through a structured five-step CBT wizard. Categorize distortions like Catastrophizing, Black-and-White Thinking, or Mind Reading, separate feelings from factual evidence, and re-rate belief intensity before and after.

Pricing & Subscriptions

MindGlitches provides free access to foundational experiments, the Impulse Firewall timer, and the Socratic Reframe tool. MindGlitches Pro unlocks the full eight-experiment diagnostic catalog and longitudinal radar profile for $9.99/month or $49.99/year via Apple In-App Purchase.
