### 5/5 — A great Teen App

*2020-06-29*

I am a teen and love using the BESTY app because this app is made for teen.  BESTY ranked first in search results for “TEEN” so I have downloaded it and gave it a try, such a ace teen app with many social and messaging features to play around and chat with friends and new people or to make new friends, As a teen I prefer private and secure messaging and make friends apps and BESTY is the one, best teen app if you want to engage with teen friends. You can also use a nearify option to find and make friends nearby. Best teen app ever and the messenger part is better than messenger kids I believe. Best messaging app.

### 5/5 — Social Networking - new social media

*2020-04-16*

I always wanted a safe and cool social networking app that I can trust, an app that is ruined with uncool ugly ads.  Besty is ad-free, an amazing and safe social networking app for everyone, but if you are a teenager then this app was created specially for you. It is not easy to find safe and ad-free social networking apps these days, but with BESTY, social networking is cool again. Thank you Besty for bringing back the cool social networking for us teens.
