What does the app do?

The Wellness Recovery Action Plan (WRAP) app functions like a templated digital notebook for documenting progress when attending a WRAP programme. The app has a few sections, such as: 

  • wellness toolbox section 
  • daily plan
  • stressors
  • early warning signs
  • when things are breaking down
  • crisis plan 
  • post-crisis plan 

This app is designed to be used alongside the WRAP programme. It is best used with a support person, support group or in a WRAP group.

PROS CONS;

✔ Works like a notebook to document your Wellness Recovery Action Plan.

✔ Has a tutorial section with instructions on how to use the app.

 

✘ The email function didn’t work at the time of review.

✘ Technology has not been leveraged to its full potential here and it is very unlikely to be helpful outside the context of a group WRAP programme.

✘ Limited education about the programme.
