The name is an issue for me
The app is well thought out and I am sure it can be a useful tool. However, I have an issue with the name; I think it can be triggering to see the word „harm“‘in the title already and the whole idea is to NOT think about harming. From a psychological and NLP point of view, the name should only contain keywords steering the user away from harming and towards the desired result of using the app, like „calm“, or even (riding the) „wave“.
I know it‘s probably not possible to change the name but with it‘s current name I would be reluctant to recommend it.

this is such a good app! so many mental health apps rely on ads or lock getting support behind payments but this is so helpful for someone who hadn’t seen any coping mechanisms before, i have seen all of them so i dont use them often but i recommend this app to friends etc who struggle !
It’s good defo HOWEVER
I do think it is good and like out of all the self-help apps it’s defo one of the best but one thing is that pretty much all of the activities are something like draw a pic to show your feelings or call a friend and like that’s ok if the urge is low but when it’s really bad then I don’t really have the emotional capacity to go find a pen and pencil and paints etc etc etc and also maybe for like adults it’s easier to call someone but as a 12 year old none of my friends are mature enough to understand and my parents are the last people I want to talk to about this stuff so maybe you could include stuff thats in the actual app like a virtual scribble tool or a mini crossword or mini game or something like that, because I find a distraction is the best also maybe add some more guidance on the journaling because I like open it and get stuck in what to write so like a step by step thing might be better even if it’s optional.

I love it so far
I feel like this app is so far really helpful, but it can be hard to do some of the distraction things.
Amazing app, beneficial for all 🤍🩷
I have found this app very helpful not only for myself but for friends of mine that have needed help with managing sh urges. It was reccomended to me by an online helpline during times of struggle and have since had the app for about 2.5 to 3 years and have found it very beneficial 🤍
