Description
León-Herrera and co-authors reviewed digital health tools for the mental and thinking problems of long COVID, in this 2026 scoping review. Long COVID often leaves people with brain fog, anxiety, depression, and fatigue, while specialist care is scarce. The reviewers searched four databases for studies of app-based and online programs aimed at these symptoms.
From nearly nine hundred records, only twenty-five studies qualified, most testing multi-part programs that combined exercises such as cognitive training, therapy, and symptom tracking. Results pointed to promise, especially for combined programs, but the evidence stayed preliminary, with few strong trials. The authors call for randomized studies, standard outcome measures, and attention to digital access.
