### 5/5 — J’adore  !!

*2023-07-22*

Cette application me permet de trouver des mamans près de chez moi et de pouvoir discuter avec eux, les rencontrer et même de faire des activités avec d’autres mères et leurs enfants ! Le tout est toujours dans le respect de tous ! Aucune malice de la part des autres ! Tout le monde est respectueux ! Si nous avons besoin de conseils, il a certainement quelqu’un pour aider ou pour nous donner conseil 😊 j’adore vraiment cette application ! En tant que maman ça me fais du bien de pouvoir rencontrer et tisser de nouveau liens avec d’autre maman et s’entraider !! WoW tout se qu’il faut dans la vie d’une maman. ! Un vrai plus !!!

### 5/5 — Great Apps for supportive moms

*2023-01-23, version 1.25.13*

Really enjoy the community of moms that uplift and support moms! Really a great way to bridge the gap from new mommies and mothers from different walks of life. Thank you for thinking of us and encouraging us to put ourselves first to be there for our children. If you are looking for a safe space to express yourself endings in self care tips and help you on your mental health journey as a mother, this app is perfect for you!

### 2/5 — Two stars bc I just downloaded it today

*2022-12-12, version 1.25.13*

So far, I’m not UNimpressed. But there is one big thing that bugs me. My local feed has TWO whole posts from moms in my state…not my area and one is a month old. The rest of my LOCAL feed is post after post from the founder. When I went to my settings and chose LOCAL feed, I figured it would just show other moms near me. So I guess there are only 2-3 moms in my entire state who use this app. But I’m still holding out hope.

### 5/5 — Pour les mamans

*2022-09-10*

Sur les réseaux sociaux traditionnels, nous ne voyons souvent que le beau côté des choses et cela peut devenir déroutant pour la maman qui se compare dans son chao! Social mom est un regroupement authentique, d’entraide, où on n’a pas peur de dire les vraies choses! Comme nouvelle maman aussi, on se sent souvent seule, isolée, ce groupe aide à briser l’isolement!

### 5/5 — Wow

*2022-08-31*

Sincèrement je n’est aucun mot, à quel point je suis contante d’avoir trouver cette app, sa aide à échanger avec d’autre maman, qui me comprend et faire des rencontre superbe ❤️

### 5/5 — Nothing but Love

*2022-08-02, version 1.25.13*

I have been a social mom - mom for about 4 years since my lil genius was born. I have found such great moms and friendships in this app. I have met 2 of my closest  in person friends through this app who have helped me in person with some of the most trying times of my life (right now going thru a separation and possible divorce). If I had never joined this app, I would have missed out on those friendships as well as the many other friends I have made through this app.  This app and the friends made have been there with me through the many phases I have gone thru in my motherhood journey and has helped me celebrate my successes and be a pillar of support in my failures. 

These moms are all positive vibes and non judgmental. We all support each other and really support each other as a mom tribe. We band together as a true sisterhood. They say it takes a village to raise a child.. and this village definitely helps me to make it through day by day.

### 5/5 — Une application formidable

*2022-08-01*

L’année passée lorsque j’ai vécu le moment le plus difficile qu’une mère puisse passer, une amie m’as suggérer ce groupe pour parler de ce que je ressentait suite à ça, etc. Depuis, je suis sur l’application presque chaque jour parce que juste de partager mes inquiétudes, mes émotions ou même des petites joies et de voir ce que d’autre mères me répondent, ça m’encourage et ça me donne la force de ne pas me découragée et d’avoir confiance en moi en tant que nouvellement maman pour la 2e fois

### 1/5 — Allows racism and homophobic posts

*2022-06-28*

The creator herself said she allows and thinks homophobic, transphobic and racists posts are okay. If you speak up or stand up against posts like those she shadow bans you but allows the other person to continue posting harmful and offensive things. Not a safe space If you or your kids are part of the lgbtq+ community.

**Developer response:** I am sorry that you or a friend of yours was offended by another user. Speech that makes someone upset is not hate speech. We apply the legal definition of hate speech to ban users. We did ban the users who regroup together to harass another user they disagreed with instead of blocking her. We have a no bullying policy and being offended doesn't give the right to harass and bully.

We wish you the best.

### 5/5 — Moms listen

*2022-06-13, version 1.25.13*

I love this app because I’m a mom looking for mom friends!! Friends who truly understand being a mom and have children my children's age range. It’s a support for moms to be able to talk to other moms who truly understand. I have only been on a few days but I love it and have already talked yo some fantastic women!!

### 4/5 — App

*2022-06-05*

J’ai fait des belles rencontres (amies mamans) grâce à cette application. Je suis très contente. Les seuls bémols: Je ne suis pas capable de publier de photos depuis près d’un an (gros bogue malgré que toute mes mises à jour sont faites et j’ai écrit à l’admin de l’app mais pas de réponses/solutions de sa part), et il y a peu de gens dans mon secteur sur cette app :( Il devrait y avoir plus de publicité pour faire connaitre l’application (mes rencontres d’amies mamans sont toutes à + de 30 mins de voiture de chez moi).

**Developer response:** Bonjour, nous sommes vraiment désolés de la situation. Tu peux envoyer un courriel à audrey@social.mom pour expliquer le bug concernant les photos et on va le régler :) nous sommes toujours à la recherche d'ambassadrices. Si ça te tente de nous aider à faire connaître l'app à plus de monde ☺️
