### 2/5 — Didn’t help me.

*2026-05-03, version 6.0.0*

I would use this app if I was considering death but I am not and never would, I talked to someone on this app because my dog died and the “professional” sent me away saying to only talk if I was considering my own death. I struggle to reach out to any therapist now for any crisis.

### 1/5 — Unhelpful service

*2026-04-25, version 6.0.0*

I felt ignored while I was trying to use the chat inbox.

### 4/5 — It’s nice

*2025-11-13, version 6.0.0*

I think it’s a good app for people who need help. I do have to say- I enjoy the website a bit better, honestly. 
It is a bit irritating that I have to constantly try scrolling down to see if they have responded, I think it’d be nice if it was fixed to be like normal messaging where the screen immediately scrolls down as soon as a message appears. 
Thank you guys.

### 1/5 — No

*2025-09-29, version 6.0.0*

Ah yes, talk to an A.I to get help, great advice. Worse than killing myself though.

### 5/5 — Fast Response

*2025-09-21, version 6.0.0*

Late at night, when my son tearfully mentioned he had been bullied the whole school year and hadn’t told us, I remembered the SafeUT app. Download was easy. Reporting the incident went smoothly. And even though it was late, we heard back within 15 minutes. The next morning we were contacted by the school. The bully was dealt with immediately!
Thank you for making this report easy, and your commitment to helping!

### 5/5 — Wow

*2025-04-26, version 5.1.4*

There has never been a moment where I actually have had to use this amazing app but I get bullied so I may have to, I’m just worried that the person will figure out it was me who reported them, but I feel very happy and safe that I have this app whenever I need it. Thank you(also how do I know if I get a response)

### 5/5 — So helpful

*2025-04-01, version 5.1.4*

The counselors on this app are very helpful and available 24/7.

### 1/5 — NO

*2025-02-07, version 5.1.4*

They had the police and dcfs workers sent to my house and didn’t tell me anything about it until the cops showed up do NOT use this up

### 5/5 — AMAZING

*2025-02-05, version 5.1.4*

Amazing! Whoever thought of the idea really did an amazing job! I’ve struggled with depression and anxiety forever, it got so bad where I would physically abuse myself. But I tried using safeut and it changed my life. Not only do the operators make you feel like you’re worth it, they also make you laugh and tell jokes! It is seriously one of my favorite apps and will forever be on my phone. My favorite feature is submitting anonymous tips. I’ve had this secret that I felt like no one could know cause they would find out I told. But with the anonymous tip feature, no one knows who’s submitting the tip and they can properly address the situation!

### 2/5 — .

*2024-12-12, version 4.5.2*

Uh so I told them about what’s going on in my life and they only replied to one part and said to talk to my parents about it then ended the chat so I don’t even know I was having a really hard time too and I was hoping to get a different answer than that.
