User reviews

Great idea but not functional

I saw your post on Reddit, r/emetophobia and thought “wait, I love movies and I have a crippling fear of vomiting - this is the app for me!” I was really excited to try it, but the reviews are not accurate! On many movies that DO have explicit vomit scenes I saw no warning anywhere for emetophobia. This would really be nerve racking to me. It’s almost worst to not know if there’s a vomit scene or not than to expect there won’t be one and then it takes you by full surprise! Once all the films are updated with all possible triggers, I’ll change my review.

Handy Dandy

This app is easy to use. It’s also simple to add triggers to films that you have previously seen. Definitely recommend it!

Trauma-Free Entertainment

Spread the word so this app can reach it’s full potential: creating a safer viewing experience for the sake of everybody’s mental and emotional health! It’s brilliant!
I found this app so intuitive/easy to use. Includes like, every movie, even really obscure cult/art house (bonus points!), tons of triggers to add/search or suggest. It’s such a smart way to take trauma out of entertainment, love it!

Great Idea!

Easy to use and helpful for people who can be more sensitive to content in movies. I don’t get triggered easily but I do watch a lot of movies so I’m looking forward to contributing!

Easy to use interface, incredibly helpful!

If you’ve ever watched a movie, only to be blindsided by a scene that triggers emotional trauma, you need this app! Users can search the database of movies to find one they intend on watching, and see immediately if any triggers are flagged. Know a movie with troubling scenes? *cough* girl with the dragon tattoo *cough* FLAG it! In doing so, you’re helping others from potentially watching a movie that might bring up some serious trauma. It’s a win-win app, designed beautifully and so easy to use.
