Tinnitus Relief Mobile App Recognized by the University of Queensland

Service: Mobile App Development, Generative AI/ML

Executive Summary

When the TinniBot team set out to transform tinnitus therapy, their mission was to make life better for millions dealing with constant ringing in their ears. Together, we designed and launched a mobile app that offers sound therapy and progress tracking. Their users found effective, accessible relief, while the University of Queensland also recognized the solution as a standout example of healthcare innovation.

About the Client

TinniBot (Now MindEar) is a Europe-based health tech company focused on applying AI and behavioral science to improve auditory health. The founder suffered from tinnitus and couldn’t find an easy, convenient solution to manage the related difficulties. And thus was born the idea for a mobile app that would help others like him find relief. Their mission is to make tinnitus therapy affordable, scalable, and clinically effective through digital delivery.

Business Challenge

Tinnitus can be devastating, but traditional therapy often feels out of reach. It’s costly, hard to access, and slow. TinniBot team saw an opportunity to change all that and wanted to:

Package clinically-backed strategies in an engaging, self-service app.
Give patients 24/7 care, anywhere and on any device.
Ensure every feature was both effective and secure, keeping costs low.
Deliver at scale, without overwhelming clinicians or sacrificing quality.

Solution

Clixlogix team’s React Native developers worked in close collaboration with their technical founder to help build a mobile layer for their digital therapeutics platform.

Key Features

A conversational agent trained on CBT and mindfulness protocols, guiding users through coping strategies and daily exercises.

In-app customizable masking sounds and nature audio for symptom relief.

Users and doctors can analyze data though visual analytics of symptom changes over time.

App can be integrated with licensed psychologists for higher-need cases.

App structure follows GDPR-compliant architecture for patient’s data privacy.

Cross platform access across iOS and Android.

Implementation Approach

MindEar’s audiologists and psychologists helped encode CBT strategies as real conversation flows. Every step was carefully validated for safety and effectiveness.

Our mobile engineering team implemented push notification workflows, progress-tracking logic for streak badges, and a design system optimized for calm visual hierarchies, ensuring therapy sessions remained engaging and habit-forming. The app quickly scaled, supporting multiple languages and launching in over 15 countries, all in just six months.

Results

64% of users achieved significant improvement in tinnitus symptoms (Frontiers in Audiology & Otology, 2023).

The app reached thousands of needy users from 15+ countries within the first year.

App reduced per-patient therapy cost by up to 70% compared to in-clinic CBT.

App won 2022 Hearing Technology Innovator Award; featured by BBC Digital Planet, The Guardian, and Medical News Today.
