Say how you're doing.
Dear Pal keeps the record.

A warm, simple companion for people in psychiatric care. Talk or type between visits, never miss a medicine, and arrive at your appointment with a clear picture of how you've been.

Our one promise

Dear Pal records.
It does not advise.

It will never diagnose, suggest medicines or tell you what to do. That belongs to you and your psychiatrist. Dear Pal simply makes sure that nothing you wanted to say gets forgotten.

Talk or type

Say it in your own words, in your own language.

Speak in Malayalam or English, or type if you prefer. Dear Pal writes it down, so a hard day is on the record even when you can't find the words later.

Voice notes in Malayalam or English Saved even when you're offline, sent when you're back Calm, simple replies. Never advice

Medicine reminders

Reminders that fit into your day, and keep your privacy.

For the appointment

“How have things been?” finally has an answer.

Weeks of small notes become one clear page for your psychiatrist, in English, with your own words beside it. Share it as a PDF whenever you choose.

Built only from what you recorded, never invented Notes you hide stay out of it Clearly marked as self-reported, not a clinical assessment

For families

Care without prying.

Invite someone you trust with a one-time code. They see only whether a dose was taken, never your chats, notes, report or medicine names. You approve the link, and you can end it in a tap.

You always decide who sees what Codes expire after 24 hours One caregiver at a time, and either side can leave
How it works

Three small habits. One clearer visit.

1

Say it your way

Type or talk, in Malayalam or English, whenever something happens: a side effect, a bad night, a good moment.

2

Take your medicines on time

Gentle reminders at the times you choose. Mark each dose in one tap, right from the notification.

3

Bring it to your visit

A one-page summary for your psychiatrist: what came up most, new side effects, how doses went, and your questions.

Who it's for

Made for the whole circle of care

For patients

A private place to say what you feel, a reminder that respects your privacy, and a summary so you never have to remember everything on the day.

For families

Support without stepping on privacy. See whether doses are taken and send a gentle nudge, and nothing else.

For psychiatrists

A short, structured, self-reported summary before the appointment, with the patient’s own words alongside, so the visit starts with what matters.

Privacy

Your mind is yours. Dear Pal is built to keep it that way.

Only you read your notes

Your chats and notes are private to your account. Your psychiatrist sees a report only when you share it.

Lock it, or hide it

Ask for your phone’s own screen lock when the app opens, or hide the app name so it shows as “Notes”.

Your data, your call

Download everything Dear Pal holds about you, or delete your account and data, whenever you like.

Sharing is narrow

A caregiver can only see whether doses were taken. You approve it, and you can end it in a tap.

FAQ

Things people ask first

Is Dear Pal a therapist or a doctor?

No. Dear Pal is a record-keeper. It helps you remember and report how you have been, so your appointments with your psychiatrist are better prepared.

Will it give me advice or change my medicines?

Never. Dear Pal does not diagnose, advise or suggest medicines or doses. Anything about your treatment is a conversation for you and your psychiatrist.

Who can see what I write?

You. Your psychiatrist sees a summary only if you choose to share it. A caregiver, if you invite one, sees only whether doses were taken, never your chats, notes, report or medicine names.

What if I write something that sounds like I might hurt myself?

Dear Pal is not an emergency service. If what you write sounds like distress, it shows you help options straight away instead of a normal reply. In an emergency, call your local emergency number or Tele-MANAS on 14416 in India.

Which phones does it work on?

Android first. iOS support is in planning following initial clinical validation on Android.

Can I delete my data?

Yes. In Settings you can download your data or delete your account and everything stored with it.

In an emergency, don't wait for an app.

Dear Pal is not an emergency service. If you or someone you know may be in danger, call your local emergency number. In India you can also reach Tele-MANAS, the government mental health helpline, free at 14416, any time.
