### 2/5 — Not working

*2025-09-29, version 1.6.0*

Not working

### 3/5 — Contacts aren’t adding

*2023-04-28, version 1.6.0*

I’m unable to add my emergency contacts plz fix 🥹

### 4/5 — Great but could use an update

*2022-08-15, version 1.6.0*

I. Love. It. The cost is so reasonable. There’s even a Lifetime option as compared to Just Subscription. Anyway, I’m unable to add my emergency contacts. Once that’s fixed. It’s a 5 for sure.

### 2/5 — Can't just be about safety!

*2022-04-14, version 1.3.0*

Can't just be about safety! Nope! You have to pay for it. Free great idea of an app with a catch: you can't use it without a subscription. Funny how an app designed to help women is just another thing profiting off our serious issues. We have to pay to feel safe. What if we don't have the money to pay to feel safe? Something to think about, especially since women in poverty are the most targeted. 👍🏻

### 4/5 — Great app

*2022-04-13, version 1.3.0*

Perfect for getting out of uncomfortable situations! I wish it was Apple Watch compatible in case I need a more subtle way of faking a call.

### 2/5 — self recordings

*2022-03-23, version 1.3.0*

i cant record my own calls without the screen going black when i try to save it, no matter how long or short the recording is. can you pls fix this?

### 3/5 — Misleading and expensive

*2022-01-20, version 1.2*

This needs to be much cheaper and disclose the fact that it’s a paid app—$30 is A LOT annually for a simple service like Parry. Claire and Stephen are becoming full of themselves. This app will only be successful if they listen to the feedback on price. It’s not Tik Tok’s fault.

### 5/5 — First date backup in case it gets awkward

*2022-01-19, version 1.2*

As a modern single gal trying to meet someone, I have been using Parry as a precautionary backup in case the date goes south and I’m just not feeling it. It’s made me feel SO much more relaxed and confident knowing I have an easy and discreet out already set if I need it. THANK YOU PARRY!!!

### 5/5 — Such a great idea!!

*2022-01-18, version 1.2*

This is seriously such a great idea! As a true crime junkie I’m sometimes paranoid about my surroundings and this helps ease that worry. I’ve noticed people have complained about cost but I think it’s super affordable and worth it!

### 2/5 — Misleading

*2022-01-17, version 1.2*

Hi, I got parry to make me feel safer as a young girl. Once you open the app for the first time you sign up and then you have to pay for a plan. It is not free to use this app. I think it is very misleading that you have to pay to use it. I mean you are basically paying for your own safety. I understand having special access if you pay for certain things but I don’t think you should have to pay to use any part of the app.

### 1/5 — App does not work

*2026-01-12, version 1.6.0*

Any time I attempt to schedule a call, I get an error message saying “something went wrong-please try again” I’ve updated the app, reinstalled the app, rebooted phone, all for naught. This is a great concept but simply doesn’t work and takes your subscription fee.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2025-06-04, version 1.6.0*

Paid $4.99 for the lifetime and it does not work.

### 1/5 — This App is a scam

*2024-09-10, version 1.6.0*

I paid the fee for this app and it does not work.  I immediately sent an email for assistance and did not receive a response.  THIS APP IS A SCAM.  Takes your money and gives you NOTHING!

### 1/5 — Does not work! Developer will not reply.

*2024-04-23, version 1.6.0*

Paid  for this several days ago and it does not work. Keep getting and error message. Messaged the creator on Facebook three times with no response. DO NOT waste your money.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2024-02-29, version 1.6.0*

I really love the idea of this but it does not work. I paid for this app and have not been able to get it to work over the course of several days. I'm not sure if the developer gave up on this project or what the issue is but I reached out to the support email several days ago and I haven't heard anything back. Some of their social media accounts also haven't posted in well over a year. I requested a refund so hopefully that will at least go through

### 1/5 — Took my money

*2024-02-14, version 1.6.0*

I paid for a membership and when I went to use it I couldn’t even get it to work once. I just waisted my money on nothing.

### 1/5 — Purchase required

*2022-04-13, version 1.3.0*

This app seams like a great idea, we love women safety. Why should something as amazing as this idea be charged. This seems like a great opportunity to get FREE safety to women, but instead there is a weekly charge. Do not download.

### 1/5 — Costs money

*2022-02-20, version 1.2*

It’s a great idea. But why would I pay weekly for something that I might have to use once in a dangerous situation. A one time payment to buy the app honestly might make y’all more money bcuz so many people can’t afford the plans.

### 1/5 — What????

*2022-02-09, version 1.2*

There's a pay lock.. why are we getting charged to protect ourselves?! i get that apps need to make money, but there's other ways that could make the app more accessible too.

### 1/5 — Says it’s free but it’s not

*2022-01-28, version 1.2*

Why would an app that is suppose to help women feel safe cost money? It’s not free.. but they advertise it’s free Just charge for the Download. Don’t go through a scheming way to get people to download it and then demand they pay to use. Your excuse on another review is empty because “in app purchase” means some free features. Some cost purchase.

### 5/5 — Y’all are stupid.

*2022-04-14, version 1.3.0*

Do you all want to try and invent an app to help make women feel safe for free??? No. You also all probably don’t know how expensive it is to create and launch something. 99c isn’t much and your also helping support other women so stop crying. No ads is very important for this app. Don’t 1 star because you’re being ignorant. This is a great app. Not angry birds. They also lowered the price for a year subscription.

### 5/5 — Fantastic app!

*2022-04-09, version 1.3.0*

Clean design and so easy to navigate! Such a great tool to have available. Highly recommend for everyone.

### 5/5 — SO VERSATILE

*2022-03-21, version 1.3.0*

I originally got parry just for those really uncomfortable situations at the bar when a guy just won’t take no for an answer. But parry has helped me in so many other situations! It’s such a great option and it makes me feel a lot safer when I go out into the world on my own. Seriously people GET THIS APP. 

Short story: I was In an Uber and I noticed that the driver started to start to lean from the proper route to where we were supposed to be going. I immediately started to feel uncomfortable I used parry to send my location to my sister and stayed on the phone with the person the entire time. Once he heard me talk to the person about where I was and what time I should be home he immediately went back to the proper route. I’m not joking when I say get this app. It’s just an extra comfort that’s unfortunately is necessary these days.

### 5/5 — Parry is the BEST

*2022-02-10, version 1.2*

Parry is such a great tool. I love having this on hand to get out of any awkward/uncomfortable conversations or situations, and to always have as a back up especially when I’m going out on a date! Also Parry has come in handy when someone doesn’t get the hint I don’t want to small talk when I go on a walk, go to the grocery store, etc.

Everyone needs Parry!!

### 5/5 — Great for those awkward social times!

*2022-01-22, version 1.2*

This is a great app for those times when things get a little too awkward with someone. I use this if I need a polite but easy reason to leave a conversation I’m just over! Even if I only use it once a month, it’s well worth it to me just to have it on hand. It’s easy to activate and I like that it sends my location to my special contacts! I also like the colors of the app 🤣

### 5/5 — GENIUS! So useful for many situations

*2022-01-21, version 1.2*

I can’t believe an app like this didn’t exist before. It’s super easy to use, I love the option to make things customizable and I think for everything you’re getting it’s BEYOND fairly priced. I’ve been sharing it with every woman I know!

### 5/5 — Safety first!

*2022-01-21, version 1.2*

Worth the monthly subscription to feel safer with my day to day life! Everything cost money so why not spend it on something to keep you safe? Thank you Perry for working so diligently in this safety space..even if it’s just to help get out of awkward pick ups!

### 5/5 — Trust and safety is worth the price

*2022-01-21, version 1.2*

This is an awesome and well needed app! I’ve seen versions in the past but they inevitably break or fade out. This app is the real thing and worth the cost! Paying for trust and safety when you need it is MORE then worth it!

### 5/5 — Parry in the Capitol city

*2022-01-20, version 1.2*

Living in a city where I utilize public transportation, parry has been a god-send; I can set it for a call as I’m walking to and from the metro/ have my location sent so I know someone knows I’m safe. Thanks so much for making this!

### 5/5 — Every woman needs this on their phone

*2022-01-19, version 1.2*

Amazing idea for women’s safety! And only $25 a year to have peace of mind while out in public? A no-brainer for women. Thank you for developing this!
