Jane App is beautifully designed and has earned a loyal following, particularly in Canada where it's based. But if you're a UK therapist, the pricing doesn't convert cleanly, support runs on North American hours, and some features assume a clinical rather than therapeutic setting.

## Why therapists are switching from Jane App

- Priced in CAD - UK therapists pay unpredictable amounts each month depending on exchange rates.
- Support is based in North America, which can mean waiting until the UK afternoon for answers.
- Built for a broad range of health practitioners - Jane serves physios, chiropractors, optometrists, and more. Therapy-specific workflows aren't the priority.
- Expensive for what UK therapists need - the feature set includes insurance billing and charting tools designed for clinical settings.
- No dedicated note encryption - session notes are stored securely but not encrypted beyond standard hosting.
- No built-in counselling agreement signing - you need a separate tool or manual process for therapy contracts.
