myPlan is backed by Johns Hopkins University research, done with thousands of people experiencing partner abuse. A few things users say about myPlan:

    "This may have saved my life, I never thought of putting together a safety plan before”

    "It wasn't until I was going through all of the questions that I realized just how bad things really are. Sometimes your vision and mind become clouded just to make it through the day and cope"

    "myPlan gave a lot of really, like solid concrete, advice as to what to do for a friend, people don’t know what to say and how to say it."

Safety features:

-   Changeable icon to hide the app on your home screen
-   Set your own secure PIN code to keep your information private

-   Quick exit button on every page

Safety Notes:

-   Abusive people often monitor their partner’s device and online activity. You might not even know it’s happening. Having an app about relationship abuse could put you at risk. If you are concerned about someone discovering myPlan, please take steps to use it as safely as possible.
-   The safest way to use myPlan is on a device your partner doesn’t have access to. Abusers often monitor their partner’s device activity. Having an app about relationship abuse could put you at risk. If you are worried about someone discovering the app,
-   Make sure your device activity isn’t visible to your partner through “family sharing”. Alert: If family sharing is enabled, your partner may get a notification if you change the settings.
-   Make sure your device is not connected to other devices a partner could see through cloud sync (iCloud or Google Cloud)
-   Delete myPlan when you are done using. with it, but know it’s not always possible to delete completely from your purchase history. Alert: It’s not possible to delete apps from your purchase history on Apple devices. You can “hide” purchases on your own device, but they can still be discovered, and it will not be hidden from a family member’s purchase history if family sharing is enabled. myPlan is also available by web browser if you don’t want to download it (www.myplanapp.org)
-   myPlan is not meant for use if you are in immediate danger – call 911.
-   myPlan is not meant to replace real live trained domestic violence advocates and service providers. We know most people experiencing abuse never access formal services. myPlan expands access to personalized safety information with the ease of access and privacy of a device, but we encourage all users to reach out to a professional.

### 4/5 — Comprehensive

*2025-11-12*

I'm a full time domestic violence advocate and I endorse this tool for clients/survivors. I tried it both as if I was the victim and as if I was looking for help for a friend and I felt both assessments were comprehensive and thought provoking. My only critique is that during the risk assessment ("is my relationship dangerous") I feel there should be explicit questioning about hx of DV injuries and hospitalizations. But overall I think it's an excellent resource.

### 2/5 — Bug needs fixing

*2025-05-20*

I am trying to take the personality quiz and it won’t let me past the demographic question I think 15 or hit next and I completely can’t use the app any further because it won’t let me past that question

### 5/5 — Great help

*2024-11-19*

I downloaded this app to see if it was what I needed to help a friend. It has the choice to evaluate the situation and safety plan for a friend or family members, as well as yourself. I am very impressed with the tools it has to help you evaluate your situation and begin safety planning. It is not a replacement for a domestic violence counselor but it's very helpful.

### 5/5 — This is game changing

*2024-09-02*

I’ve never seen such a well made app like this. As a professional in the field I’ll be promoting it for sure. Thank you so much for this resource 🙏

### 2/5 — Not what I expected

*2024-04-14*

I downloaded the app because I’m the one be domestically abused. I was hoping the app would show me that it’s real but when I got on and did the basics survey it’s asking questions about the abuser in the sense that their the one that show be on the app. It’s like it’s trying to get me to fill out everything for them and help them but that’s not what the app showed to do on the app store. I’m not saying it’s a bad thing that the app does that, it’s good to help other with that situation it’s just it keeps like there’s some missing information on the app store page, either that or the app needs clearer instructions. I could use it into a 3rd person way but honestly i would rather not and just find another app. I could’ve just messed up the whole basics thing but I didn’t really see anything about get my own help

**Developer response:** We are so sorry to hear you have had to deal with an abuser, it's not right and you deserve to be safe. We are also very sorry the app was not helpful for you. It should have been validating and we apologize that wasn't your experience. One of the first questions in the app is if you are concerned about your own relationship or if you are looking to support a friend/family member experiencing abuse. It's sounding like you may have accidentally selected the friend/family option and then weren't getting the questions about you. Please email us at info@myPlanApp.org with any feedback about how we could make the questions more clear or useful or if you want to participate in future testing as one of our survivor advisors.

### 2/5 — I can't get past the screen with demographic questions

*2024-04-09*

I tried clicking none of the options and then some/all of the options, and neither way was I able to click "next" to proceed. It isn't possible to both scroll down and click the button. Nice idea but I don't see how it can be used.

**Developer response:** We are so sorry for the bug you encountered! We try our best to squash bugs as soon as they are discovered or reported. I believe the bug you encountered has been located and fixed. We would greatly appreciate if you would consider updating your review (5 stars please!). In the future please contact us at info@myPlanApp.org with any tech issues and we will address.

### 3/5 — Videos

*2024-03-30*

I downloaded this app and it really feels like it will be helpful. Except for one thing; don’t make the videos autoplay. That can be very dangerous for the person trying to leave as it autoplays loudly also.

**Developer response:** Thank you for this feedback! The app did not autoplay videos for any of our testers so we will revisit the code and ensure this is turned off regardless of your device/browser/youtube settings. We would greatly appreciate if you would consider updating your review (5 stars please!). In the future we would appreciate if you would contact us at info@myPlanApp.org with any tech issues and we will work quickly to address.

### 5/5 — An exceptional tool

*2024-03-28*

As the director of sexual aggression services at the collegiate level, this is one of the best apps I’ve ever seen for providing clarity and support to individuals that may be in a domestic violence or intimate partner violence situation.

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2023-04-19*

This app is incredibly helpful at identifying risk and providing support. It’s helpful in leading discussion and also assisting an individual in relationship education.

### 5/5 — So glad this resource is out there!

*2023-01-09*

A super helpful option for people who want to get info but maybe aren’t ready to talk to anyone yet
