Getting started

Your first conversation with Myndo

What Myndo is, how to start talking, and where your conversations go afterward.

Myndo is a coach you talk to out loud. No typing, no thread to keep up with — you speak, and Myndo listens and responds, like a conversation with someone who already knows what matters to you.

Here's how to start.

Find a quiet moment

You don't need much — a few minutes between things, a walk, the quiet before bed. Somewhere you can talk without holding back.

Start a conversation

On the Now tab, tap the glowing orb in the centre. That's the way in — Myndo takes a moment to join, and then it's listening.

Note: On the web, there's no orb — tap Talk to Myndo on the Now screen instead.

Just start talking

Say whatever's on your mind — the way you'd leave a long voicemail for a friend who gets you. You don't need an opening line or a tidy summary. Start with the loudest thing in your head and let the rest follow.

If you're not sure where to begin, try saying one of these out loud:

  • "Here's what's on my mind right now…"
  • "I've got a decision I keep going back and forth on."
  • "Today was a lot. Can I just talk it through?"

Ending the conversation

When you're ready to stop, say goodbye or tap End. Myndo won't cut you off mid-thought — if there's a thread still open, it'll offer a gentle place to close.

Where it goes afterward

After you hang up, Myndo writes a short summary you'll find in Journey. Anything worth carrying forward — a goal you named, a pattern you noticed — lands in Self, so your next conversation picks up where this one left off. You're never starting over.

Note: Myndo needs your microphone to hear you. If nothing happens when you start, see Turning on your microphone.
