Great tool for teens

Engaging content that does more than just normalize mental health, it also provides easy tools for teens to take of their mental health. With advice from everything from anxiety to body image. This app is the tool box every teen needs in their pocket.

Love it!

The videos are all super engaging so I can sit around and scroll for hours if I want, just like other social media apps. The difference is that here, the content I’m consuming is actually helpful, too. I’ve learned a lot of techniques that help in all areas of my life, and I’ve ended up sharing them with my parents too lol. It’s really great because I can access it any time I don’t feel great and immediately find something that can help. It’s kinda like the express version of therapy.

I love it, and definitely recommend it for everyone and their moms. And dads and siblings and friends and… basically just for everyone!

So Cute!

I really enjoyed the colors of the teen tok app; I think the layout, design, and graphics presents an environment for students of all ages to engage and learn about mental health practice. I also appreciate how the app seeks to track the meditation schedule of the children. Therefore, children can easily track and keep tabs on their mental health progress. One element that I feel can be made better on the app is the section about the students that create the tick tocks. I think it would be helpful for these tik tokers to discuss their educational and personal background in a short paragraph prior to the log of their videos. I also think that the tik tokers should have fun facts about themselves before the videos. I think this will help students humanize the tik tokers, and relate and trust the words of the tik tokers. I also think there should be a free video section. While I understand the app desires for people to pay for videos, not all individuals are capable of paying. Therefore, constantly clicking on videos that one has to pay for can discourage poorer students from utilizing the app.

Amazing for therapists to use with teens clients

Love this! I have been using in my school and with my teen patients. Super helpful and most importantly it really resonates with both kids and teens. Highly recommend to therapists. Renee Jain and her team are geniuses and super creative. Thank you for putting a wonderful tool in the hands of therapists.

This app has great potential

I love all the free videos. I’ve been watching some every few days for the past couple of weeks, and they have helped my life in some actually pretty noticeable ways

My criticism is mainly the price of the subscription. Firstly, many teens do not have their own money or access to ways to digitalize that money to buy a subscription like this- myself included. Secondly, I think $10 a month is a bit too pricy for what’s included, as right now it is very limited. You only get 6 new videos a week and have a total of less than 500 videos to scroll through. While this is definitely still a lot of content, it is limited, and I can’t imagine myself wanting to pay $10 a month for it. The yearly option is much more reasonable, but in my humble opinion I think the monthly pay option should be closer to maybe 6 or 7 dollars a month, at least until the platform significantly expands.

Also, it annoys me how certain videos that used to be free no longer are? I like to rewatch the videos but then I noticed a couple I would rewatch I can’t anymore and it was disappointing. I also think this app would benefit from a free trial system (if it has one idk, but it’s not openly advertised) and benefit from at least slightly more free content

Honestly wishing y’all the best, because like this review is called, this app has seriously great potential. Cheers

Response from developer

This feedback is so valuable-thank you for taking the time to give us a way to make the app even better. We're excited the content is hitting home and that you're watching some videos each day. As you mentioned, there are 500 or so videos and each week we're adding more. Each of these videos takes time for our teen creators to script and film as they are based on research, so we're rolling them out as fast as we can! Thank you for the feedback on the pricing - we're trying offer lots of free videos and also a yearly option that is very reasonable. We'll continue to work hard to make the app as accessible as possible. Thank you, again!

A Lifesaver for Teens in Today's World

Every teen should use this app! The videos help regulate the nervous system and actually build self-esteem instead of deplete it like other social platforms!

Teentoks is such a great app! I’ve learned so much from their content. I think it’s amazing that I’m being served content created by teens! There are so many young people that could benefit from this app! Highly recommend!

Good content

I like the meditation videos, relaxing way to wind down and i dont have to choose since it recommends a new one each day

Response from developer

Awesome! Yes, we were trying to make it easy to build a meditation habit. Thank you for the feedback!

all teenagers can’t pay

i love the concept but i am a teen who doesn’t make there own money yet and i am not going tell my parent about the app and it feels less like it’s for me . if i was free and it would be better but i am not paying to feel better

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the feedback. We’re so sorry to hear that you’re struggling- you're not alone. We've been working hard to create both free and premium content. We hope you'll watch the 40 free videos in the app as well as the new free video we release each week. Thank you for checking out the app; we hope you find tools that work for you.
