Could you build this?
Partial The iPhone app shell, practice flows, and audio playback are vibe-codeable, but the guided meditations and lessons need clinically grounded ACT content written and reviewed by qualified practitioners.
What it would actually take: Build a SwiftUI app with audio playback and local progress tracking, which is straightforward. The hard part is content: ACT-trained clinicians or therapists need to write the lessons and scripts, record quality narration, and ideally review them for safety, since the app addresses overthinking and emotional states.
