Everything you need to know.

Self Talk Studio uses AI to create personalized affirmations based on your goals, mood, and preferences. Enter a topic, choose your settings, and the app generates a custom script that's converted to audio using natural-sounding voices.

Personalization

The AI considers your profile, current mood, experience level, and goals to create content that resonates with your unique journey.

Yes. Most of your data is stored locally on your device — including saved sessions and preferences. When generating content, only your topic is processed by our AI service. No personal information is shared.

Privacy Protection

Local storage, encrypted transmission, and minimal data collection ensure your journey stays private.

Partially. Once you've saved sessions, you can play them offline anytime. Creating new sessions requires an internet connection since we use cloud-based AI for content generation.

Offline Access

Cancel anytime through your device's app store:

  • iOS: Settings → Your Name → Subscriptions → Self Talk Studio → Cancel
  • Android: Google Play → Menu → Subscriptions → Self Talk Studio → Cancel

Your premium features stay active until the end of your current billing period. Saved sessions remain accessible even after downgrading.

A few things to try:

  • Check device volume and make sure it's not muted
  • Close other apps that might be using audio
  • Restart the app
  • Check your internet connection (for new generations)
  • Try headphones or different speakers

If it keeps happening, reach out with your device model and OS version and we'll help sort it out.

It depends on your goals, but consistency matters more than length. Common approaches:

  • Daily: 5–10 minutes each morning or evening
  • Situational: Before challenges or when feeling stressed
  • Weekly: Longer sessions for deeper reflection

Even 2–3 minutes daily makes a real difference over time.

No. Self Talk Studio is a personal development tool — not a substitute for professional mental health care. If you're experiencing serious mental health concerns, please speak with a qualified healthcare professional.

Sorry about that. Try these steps first:

  • Force close and restart the app
  • Restart your device
  • Check for app updates
  • Free up device storage if it's low

If the issue persists, contact us with what you were doing when it happened, your device model, and OS version.

Tips for best results.

Be specific

Instead of "confidence," try "confidence for job interviews." The more focused, the better the session.

Use personal language

Topics that reflect your actual situation resonate far more than generic ones.

Experiment with voices

Different voices change how affirmations feel. Try a few to find your match.

Listen actively

Focus on the words rather than treating it as background noise. It makes a difference.
