Abstract Programmed for iOS using Swift in conjunction with Dr. Michael Amlung at St. Joseph’s Healthcare and McMaster University, Episodic Future Thinking (EFT) is an app that uses psychiatric research to minimize addiction. EFT allows users to record themselves to be notified later to pre-experience an event thereby allowing the user to think about their long-term future instead of the restricted short-term future clouded by addiction.
