Interesting! Can someone provide some source for this “science backed” bit? I’m a bit skeptical, but willing to give a try if the science is convincing

I was skeptical before as well! I first came across its legitimacy in the 'Science Vs.' podcast ep on hypnosis.

On our site we've compiled some of the latest research into hypnosis and it's effectiveness. http://www.themindsetapp.com/science/

The research field is still quite young but the evidence is coming in fast. Once we reach a certain scale and funding we will also conduct research specifically into the effectiveness of app-based hypnosis but we believe it would be aligned with the effectiveness of hypnosis in general.
