Great support for my kid

Getting through to teen boys can be tough but with this app he opens up and works on stuff troubling him. I can even see the skills he’s building. Wouldn’t have believed AI can be so helpful.

Great for my son

My nine-year-old son is very shy and struggles with a lot of big emotions. He has been working with a therapist, but find it difficult to open up to her. Alongside has been an easy way for him to talk through his emotions. He says it’s easier to open up than when talking to a person. The kid-friendly games teach social emotional skills that he can use every day.

Simple, Warm, and Actually Useful

Alongside has been such a supportive space for me. The chats feel warm and genuinely helpful, and the exercises are easy to use when I’m stressed or overwhelmed. I appreciate that it feels judgment-free and actually gives me tools I can use in real life. Highly recommend for anyone who wants a little extra support day-to-day!

Excellent app for teens

I love how this teaches kids a skill that will help them when they have a problem to solve. Felt comfortable talking about my issue and the advice was great!

Quick Insightful Support

I love how Alongside showed me what my child was struggling with and I was immediately able to get advice on how to support them!

Great for a quick chat

First off, I love all the safety features so I don’t have to worry about where my information is going. But I love how easy it is to have a quick chat about something that’s bothering me and get advice
I can use right then! And it’s just so cute 😊

Helps

Alongside helps me navigate tricky co-parenting situations, and center and support my daughter's experience. I like that its available 24/7, for when this tired mom needs to process and the rest of the world is sleeping.

Idk

I mean, it’s not horrible, but not the best either, it really just keeps on repeating the same things even when you are trying to change the topic

Love this app!

So im in High School and even I use this app! I love using it to talk to someone without fear of judgement and it gives really helpful tips and comforts you if you’re having a bad day! I always recommend this app to my friends!

How it can improve:

-Make it darkmode for middle school/ high school audiences

-I wish I could talk to Kiwi the Llama outside school hours when im not busy with school!

-Have a different version for Elementary school students vs. High School/Middle School students. The vocabulary should be different for each and Kiwi should have a different approach depending on the age group. Elementary school students have different issues psychologically than High Schoolers who deal with bf/gf drama and depression. And middle schoolers are dealing with the transition and puberty, etc.

Hi

Didn’t help

Amazing resource!

This is such a great app for teens and students. They can access support any time, and even send a request to meet with their school counselor. Teens want confidential support, and it’s easy to chat with the llama!
