Fantastic app.
I’ve been using this app since early 2014 (on and off) I’ve met some great friends from here and helped many people. I’ve also been helped myself. Next month I’ll be 6 years clean and I honestly don’t think I’d have done it without this app so thank you Talklife.Cheyennesmithx
Helpful thus far
Technically speaking, I actually really enjoy the apps UI, it doesn’t crash on me and runs fine. Sometimes when I'm writing a comment i’ll tap the screen and it will return to the previous screen and erase my comment before i can post it. Otherwise, it’s been good as an emotional support app. It’s easy to use and it has a number of different resources you can turn to for help. I’m enjoying it so far.Show lessindigoyubi
This app used to be good
Over the past 4 years it’s gotten considerably worse. Littered with ads and people that aren’t there for the right reasons. They keep changing the actual app itself, making it work less efficiently, i was trying to right a post before coming here only it wouldn’t follow the text so i couldn’t see what i was typing and i have up out of frustration. This app used to help me a lot and now i don’t even use it because it’s just really gone down hill. Would not recommendShow lesskraphtous
Great support
It’s good to be able to chat with people that get you and help those who feel isolatedKirst.x.x.x
the adssssss jezus
I’ve been on this app for hmmmm 3 yrs now and let’s just say I’ve had my bumps with the creator and some of the minions
I was obviously bullied by a moderator on multiple platforms and what happened? I was told to chill out on my passive aggressive posts or I would get banned
And the mod? Still here, we’re okay now but for a platform that claims to not tolerate any form of bullying I was disappointed. (Jamie you know who this is so go ahead and ban me.) overall the concept of the app is cool and somewhat helpful but oooooof does it have its scandals
It has turned into what the community likes to call “twitter for depressed people”, the longer you stay the more you’ll realize you will get sucked into the “popularity” concept of the app either by your “rank” amount of hearts or just even getting on the popular page. It’s addicting and wow some people are the worst.
also very little has been done to protect its users from creepy messages asking for nudes.
But my biggest complaint for now is the ads
I understand they need the money but ffs you have patreons an ad ISNT necessary every two clicks.
Over all, would I recommend? Yeah sure but not for longtime useShow lessEabisaig
Honestly
I find this app amazing to go to when it feels like I’m losing my mind. The people on here are so understanding, they don’t judge you, they give advice, they support you, etc. Getting help from people with feelings / thoughts / experiences similar to mine really gives me a sense of comfort that I can’t seem to find in real life. I think this app can definitely help me but I still have a long way to go before I can consider myself okay.Show lessObsessed mused
Ads
It’s understandable that ads are necessary for the success and running of the app. However, it’s at a point now where the ads have become a hindrance to the stated mission of the app itself. Assuming the guise of a support platform, the practical functionality of the app is more of a vehicle for advertisements than supporting individuals. Objectively, it’s difficult to endure numerous ads for frivolous entertainment when one is seeking to reach out for help- especially when that one may be in crisis- which may only compound their problem and defeats the mission statement from the get go. That said it has the potential to be a solid “work in progress” as of today.Show lessMicah00713
This app is a joke!
I gave it 5 stars so that people who are truly looking for a helpful app could see this. This app does not focus on being a safe place to just talk about struggles it’s pretty much a mixture of people who are actually looking for help and others using it as a social media platform. I have seen a lot of unrelated bs on here. Don’t waste your time with this app no one on here is using it for its purpose.Show lessdaniiiiiii2828
Helpful but the people changed
I have had this for 3 years and i can say that in the beginning it dramatically helped, but then about a year ago newer people showed up and its been nothing but judging and awkward to ask questions or be there at all. Also, weird men from other countries randomly text you and it gets CREEPY, so beware. I reported as many as I could but it is just hard to even deal with it. I have about 63 people waiting for a text back.
Maybe making a “bestfriends” part but where “bestfriends” only can message you. 🤷🏼♀️
Although I am 17, I do feel like younger teens should have their own “area”. For instance if they registered as a child, only certified (like maybe filled out a registration for this online) adults/older teens can answer to them.❤️
Still, I like to help others and I also like to get help because I have problems of my own, but there are things they need to change before I give 5 stars. 💛🍯Show lessRowdyPooch
This has helped me
So I’ll give an up to date review . My app works great no glitches and is not slow . Besides that the app is great . I always have someone to talk to or just understand what I’m going through . It’s more than just relationships it’s people going through many different things it could be a work problem or a school problem they can’t figure out . It’s helpful , but it’s not just an app you get on and see sad posts it’s also happy post . It is like a support group. You go when you feel like it any time of the day . People who follow you get to keep up with you and how you’re doing and you get to do the same so that’s a nice feature I like ! And sometimes you just don’t want to hear opinions or comments and other times people just don’t know what to say so I love the buttons that say “hug” and “support “ and “I’m here for you” because it’s the little bit of reassurance somebody needs. Seriously use this app if you just wanna post and post it’s like a twitter but somewhere where you don’t have to feel embarrassed somewhere you probably won’t see anyone you know on it it’s a safe place. It’s helped me a lot so thank you to whoever made this app.Show lessJennny123
