The goal of this clinical trial is to validate the use of digital Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (Digi-ACT) in Hong Kong curative cancer patients with depressive and anxiety symptoms. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Can Digi-ACT reduce depressive or anxiety symptoms? * Can Digi-ACT improved health-related quality of life? * Is Digi-ACT an acceptable and feasible intervention for users? * What are the factors that influence the success of Digi-ACT? * Can the video journals used in Digi-ACT predict depressive symptoms? Intervention group participants will install the Digi-ACT mobile application and undergo a 3-4 week long intervention. They will have to fill out questionnaires at baseline, immediately after the intervention, and at three month follow up to measure depression and anxiety symptoms, health-related quality of life, acceptability of the intervention, and other process outcomes related to the intervention itself. Researchers will compare the outcomes with a group of participants that undergo a 3-4 week long period where they navigate a similar mobile platform that gives bi-daily psychoeducational videos that also fill out the same clinical questionnaires at baseline, post-intervention, and at three month follow up.
