Waypoint is a panic attack relief app built on one idea: every attack you survive becomes evidence you can survive the next one. I built it after years of real panic attacks — the apps already out there didn't work when I was actually in it. The crisis path is free forever. No red in the UI (it triggers threat response). One decision per screen during a crisis. Direct 988 access built in. Built solo in SwiftUI.
Maker here 👋 I built Waypoint after years of dealing with real panic attacks myself — including one that left me stuck in a hotel room for two days on a business trip, unable to function. I tried the apps already out there. None of them worked for me in the actual moment.
The core idea: every attack you get through gets logged — not as a mood tracker, but as real evidence that you've survived this every time. The crisis path is free forever, no red anywhere in the UI (it triggers a threat response), one decision per screen during the actual protocol, and direct 988 access built into every screen.
Built solo in SwiftUI. Happy to answer anything — about the app, the design choices, or the build itself. Also very open to feature requests, this is still very much evolving.
The no-red UI choice is thoughtful and actually made the app feel calmer to open. One decision per screen during a crisis path is exactly the kind of restraint most wellness apps get wrong.
Love that there's no red anywhere in the crisis screens — such a thoughtful detail for someone mid-panic. The one-decision-per-screen flow kept me from getting overwhelmed even just testing it.
