About Mightier

Mightier is a child-centered, evidence-based, digital program that uses biometric feedback from a heart sensor so children learn, practice and apply lifelong coping skills through game-based play. With both online and offline activities, Mightier supports the development of the whole child so that kids can live healthier, happier lives. Developed at Boston Children’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Mightier is clinically proven to help kids ages 6 to 14 prepare for life's big emotions. To date, more than 2.5 million games have been played on the Mightier app by more than 100,000 kids. While kids play games the heart sensor allows them to visualize their emotions in real time. As they become overexcited, frustrated, or stressed, they learn strategies to calm down and regulate their emotions. By practicing strategies in the game, they build a toolbox of coping strategies to use in real life. Mightier’s Parent App provides insights into their child's progress and includes articles and resources to support their child's development. Offline activities such as conversation cards, puzzles, etc. further supplement skills to create a holistic emotional regulation program for families.

Mightier brought positive and effective change Mightier brought positive and effective change to our kids and family. We sought Mightier because one of our kids was diagnosed with borderline ADHD, but he was still young and we were not ready to try medicine. We felt that he still had some development work to do and we could change our behaviors as a family to support him better before we ask him to change to us. Mightier became a tool within that plan. He loves video games and we didn't allow a lot of screen time prior to this, so Mightier felt like a huge treat. The excellent graphics, games, and encouragement with in-app rewards kept them excited for the program. The breathing and calming exercises brought awareness to our kids about their own body, and that overflowed into daily life. 6 months later, our son's signs of ADHD have significantly reduced and affect him less in school and at home. We believe Mightier helped us give him time to develop and evaluate his needs more, because we provided him tools to understand his body better.

This organization is spot on in efficiency and awesome customer support! My daughter did well in using the tablet and games. She would choose it when she needed alone time and the feeling of calm. The would even replace her fun games with 30 min on it. The Mightier product, games, and free hardware with the option to donate, have been an integral part of my daughter’s mental health stability. She uses her newly practiced tools during school and times of panic.

Win win We spent October through December using Mightier to help cope with frustration and the biofeedback was just what we needed. I knew when my son had his fill when getting Lavalings became easy while still playing no matter how challenging the games got. "Lavalings" became a household word and eventually my boy did figure out the therapeutic element to the gaming. A fun intro for our family to gaming. Seeing the benefit of retreating into playing as well as setting limits and good communication. Win win all around.

Return policy and guidelines were… Return policy and guidelines were unclear. The only follow emails I recall seeing were those asking for positive reviews. If progress emails were sent (with zero data because, as other reviews have mentioned, the games we archaic and not user friendly) why would the company keep charging the recurring payments? I mean, there's a deliberate connection to the internet and usage, or lack thereof, could be seen. Tonight I discovered 3 $40 monthly recurring charges (and another about to be charged) for something that sits in a box. I question that this company has a family's well-being truly in mind.

We love Mightier! We love Mightier! My 7 year old son struggles with impulse control and his anger. I can definitely see a difference in his response when he is frustrated or mad. We have taught him for years to try and breath through his anger but he would always get more mad in the moment when we told him that. After he started playing Mightier it finally clicked, I saw him using breath to calm himself without cues from us.
