3AM

A big new update for 3AM. This version makes the app easier to use, more useful when you actually need it, and introduces a completely new grief support experience. New: AFTER AFTER is a new grief awareness and support space built for young people. It starts with a short educational experience exploring what grief can really look like, how common bereavement is among young people, the gaps in support, and some of the things people often get wrong about grief. After that, you can access support based on what you need right now, including: • Support for difficult grief days • Help telling someone what you need • Support around important dates and anniversaries • Guidance for school or college • Help supporting a grieving friend • Specialist grief support and signposting • Private reflections saved to your journal AFTER is designed around the idea that there is no single way to grieve and no fixed timeline you have to follow. Check ins are now easier Checking in is now much easier to find, with a new central Check In button in the main navigation. You can check in with yourself, check in with someone else, or use PEOPLE NEED PEOPLE features without having to search through the app. A completely improved Tools section The Tools area has been rebuilt with practical tools that actually guide you through something instead of just showing information. New tools include: • 60 second grounding • Getting thoughts out of your head • Help reaching out to someone • Planning only the next hour • Making tonight feel more manageable • Simple distractions when your brain needs a break There is also a new “Help me choose” option if you are not sure where to start. Improved Suicide Prevention support The old Suicide Prevention Month section has been replaced with a permanent Suicide Prevention page. It now includes clearer urgent support, options based on whether you would rather text or call, support for someone worried about another person, grounding tools, help finding the words to reach out, and trusted support services. The page has also been fully redesigned to work properly in both light and dark mode. Light and dark mode You can now switch between light and dark mode across the app, with improved contrast and readability throughout. Simpler navigation The app has been reorganised to make the most important features easier to reach. The main navigation is now: Today People Check In Tools You We have also reduced unnecessary steps, simplified screens and improved layouts across the app. Other improvements • Redesigned Home screen • Improved Journal experience • Better PEOPLE NEED PEOPLE integration • Improved important date reminders • Better iPhone and iPad layouts • Improved safe area support • Better external link handling • Improved touch behaviour • Improved text readability • Performance and stability improvements • General fixes and polish throughout the app
