Scientologist Propaganda
This app is nothing but propaganda for the Church of Scientology. It will do nothing for you and is a waste of memory. Don't download it...中国菜服务员
BEWARE THIS IS A FRONT FOR THE CULT OF SCIENTOLOGY!
If you've read about the Narconon Drug Rehab centres being investigated for numerous deaths you might have been surprised to realise that they are, in fact, a front for scientology. This app is sponsored by the cult. Look up Narconon and scientology on the internet to see the true story. Stay clear of this app!

Just Awful
This app is terrible. It uses lies, half truths, and general fear mongering in an attempt to scare people into not taking drugs - the same tactics that have been failing since they were introduced in the 1980s. In fact, the majority of 'drug users' featured in the videos are old enough to have grown up under the War on Drugs motto of 'Scare First, Educate Never' (ie 'Just Say No'), yet here they are in your app claiming to be addicts. Clearly, the 'education' method isn't working? Yet here you are, going down the same path.
Perhaps if you were to simply present honest information about these drugs, free of sensationalization, more young people would actually listen to you. See, the problem with your method of education, is when the kids realize all the half truths you've told them about drugs like marijuana, and then proceed to wonder what else they've been lied to about and approach harder substances without the respect those substances deserve.
In short, you are part of the problem, not part of the solution. Your dream from a drug free world, while admirable, is an idealistic fantasy. Instead of ignoring these substances, and attempting to instill a sense of fear into young people, accept the fact that people will always experiment with drugs. Your job should be to teach them how to do so safely, and to educate them on the inherent risks of abuse, and acceptable methods of moderation and personal restraint.
Then again, if the government would just step in and regulate these substances instead of pretending they don't exist, we wouldn't even have to bother with this whole mess.

Tries too hard
This is a well put together app, however the developers appear to be trying too hard. I think it would have benefitted from a more traditional menu system. Otherwise the information is of a good standard. It is a shame that a lot of the resources are only available over your internet connection. Personally I prefer the iPhone app of the same name.Show lessBGMan
