### 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.

### 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 ☺️

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2021-02-05, version 1.25.12*

I just wanted to say that I’m new to this app but so far I’m loving everything about it. The people are amazing and so supportive to other mothers. It’s great to be able to find a place for mothers to come together for advise and support. I really love that the creators stay on top of their app and get rid of all the negative rude people. I know we’re not all perfect but at least we can respect each other and the mothering struggle we all go through.

### 5/5 — Toujours de bon conseil

*2021-01-10*

Super application! Les femmes s’entraide énormément ! J’ai toujours de bon conseil et d’aide sur ce site :)

### 2/5 — Tired of being silenced...

*2020-10-04, version 1.25.6*

I genuinely LOVE this app but I don’t think I can tolerate it anymore... there are a few moms who constantly break community guidelines and bully others but get away with it, I made a new account for a fresh start and within two days my account was reported and now I can’t post, Comment, or like anything. I’ve messaged the creators and have not heard back. They automatically put limitations on your account if just one person reports you. All I have done is spread positivity and post pictures of my babies and I have not violated any guidelines and I’m tired of people getting away with bullying and other people like me getting account restrictions for absolutely no reason. Definitely needs a better system!

### 4/5 — Like it

*2020-09-21, version 1.25.2*

I like this app it gives you a chance to post about your kids, share ideas with others. If you don’t like someone just block them it’s simple. I uninstalled it because I was addicted to be honest but by posting negative reviews because you wanted to freely talk crap about others is low. Social mom is a good app 💟💞💞💜

### 5/5 — Worth it!

*2020-09-10*

Fell in love with this app in 2018, and 2020 in still here. It’s definitely worth the download.

### 5/5 — Love it...buuttt!!!

*2020-08-21, version 1.24.2*

I love  it but....I can’t post anything the app isn’t working right please fix these glitches!!

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2020-08-05, version 1.23.0*

I haven’t really dove into the depths of it yet, so I don’t know my way around entirely, but so far it’s been amazing! On other social platforms like Facebook, there’s some seriously hateful people towards mothers & children, so I absolutely love that there’s a place for mothers to post about being mothers & their children, without receiving hate in return!

### 5/5 — Enjoy the app

*2020-07-31, version 1.23.0*

I enjoy being on here. It makes me feel like I am not alone anymore. It’s a place where everyone can be able to be themselves.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 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.

### 1/5 — If I could give zero stars to any app it would be this one

*2022-03-12, version 1.25.13*

I’ve been apart of the app from the beginning . A new first time mom stepping into this scary world looking for help, advice & friends . At first it was truly that & great . It’s now gotten to the point where I’ve had to delete my account because of constant harassment that mods do nothing about . They work so hard to scrub these reviews but to be here to tell the truth I am so disappointed in my end experience with this platform . Save yourself the toxicity & just get peanut .

### 1/5 — Bullying??? No thanks

*2021-11-06, version 1.25.13*

I downloaded this and decided to actually read the recent reviews….I’m sorry but so many mention bullying that there’s no way to think it’s being made up. I was actually excited about this but sounds like there isn’t monitoring done well around these issues with what sounds like a lot of moms bullying other moms. No thanks. Regular Facebook works just fine for me and then there’s friends and family i can always go to. Hope the creator takes a hard look into her community she is trying to
Build.

**Developer response:** Hi there, we don’t allow bullying and the reviews you read aren’t recent . It's written in our guidelines that we don’t tolerate bullying and we encourage moms to come to us if it happens so we can take actions. Moms can send us an email or message us on the app.
We are sorry you didn’t get to try social.mom and see for yourself. We wish you the best during this journey on being a mom ☺️ Best wishes!

### 1/5 — User Agreement

*2021-11-01*

Got me signed up everything seemed okay and then I reopened the app and the new user agreement came up. Something about sharing my number with a financial group who will be calling me and sending me emails for product offers? Sounded fishy like a separate business altogether so I noped out of there really quickly. No I don’t want my personal information shared but thanks for letting me know after the fact and wasting my time.

**Developer response:** Hi there, we are VERY transparent with our users and unlike other companies that sell all their users datas, we named the only one we are partnering with in the user agreement. That specific company does one call only and if so, within the year, that's all. We understand your concern and we hope you'll find another community. Best wishes ☺️

### 1/5 — Treated wrong

*2021-09-21, version 1.25.12*

I use to like this app I was a member on this app before in 2020 I shared pictures of my kids and myself . Then I decided to take a break from social media so I deleted the account until this year a made another one I had the account for 3 days haven’t started posting pics yet then was deleted off because I didn’t share photos and saying showing signs of not being a real mom so that made me upset to be judged when they didn’t even take the time to know I was a member before . So if you decide to get on this app follow there rules because they will delete you immediately with no questions ask smh sad app.

**Developer response:** Hi there, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. Since you were an old user you know we don’t delete account that way. One of our values is no judgement and that’s why many moms including you come to Social.mom. We provide a safe place for moms. Please feel free to send an email to audrey@social.mom so we can look into what happened with your account. Best wishes :)

### 1/5 — If you genuine love being hunted by friendly humbot

*2021-08-03, version 1.25.12*

Small bussiness boss babes will rip to shred when they are literally frauding each other on there. You guys know that mlm are practically illegal. So if you don’t want to join a team and help these women feeds their family. Just go to Reddit and meet moms there lol because this is weird this is legit weird .

### 1/5 — Not a safe place for anyone

*2021-02-28, version 1.25.12*

I joined this app and initially, I loved it..but it didn’t take long for the bullying and pettiness to begin. I posted an innocent picture of my son standing outside on our driveway barefoot and I was ATTACKED. I was accused of being neglectful and abusive to my son. It was traumatic. I never believed the stories about how traumatizing online bullying can be until I joined this app. Several people even threatened to call CPS on me. I can’t begin to to explain how mean and hateful people can be. I tried to report the bullying but nothing ever happened to them. All because my 5 year old son was standing on my concrete driveway barefoot.

**Developer response:** Hi, we are sorry it happened. 😞 We do not tolerate bullying. Can you please message the social.mom profile on the app with screenshots please? We will adress the situation right away. We also have a block button so you can block any person bringing negativity on your profile. Social.mom is a community of moms that support each other and we want it to stay that way. Best wishes ❤️

### 1/5 — Bullies / creators are just as bad

*2021-01-05, version 1.25.11*

I used to love this app so much because I felt like everybody was supportive and everybody let everybody have an opinion and everybody respected everybody but I had a tragic incident and I lost my child and I posted and shared about my experience and I got bullied off the app and people started a go fund me’s and started raising money on there behalf for my child for their own gain ! I got on the app to share my experience and ask for prayers I never asked for a dime I never said I would go fund me I never asked for anything from anyone other than support and prayers and I got bullied vicious girls and the creators of the account wanted me to give them permission to call the hospital and they wanted me to send them my babies death certificate so I could prove my son was dead so I was disgusted with this app and I deleted it but now I’m looking into a lawyer so I can go after the creators because that is just pure evil and you don’t do that to a grieving mother this app is nasty be aware and these girls are vicious and Will talk about you and spread rumors and lies they hurt me so bad in my worst time of need and I will never ever ever forgive these people or this app for allowing people to bully someone who is grieving

**Developer response:** Hi dear,
First, many moms tried to help you, and they trusted you. You apparently stopped replying after giving confusing information.
I also tried to help you, asking screenshots of the bullying, which you "didn't know" how to send them to me. Be aware that we are more than willing to cooperate with any police because we have nothing to hide. I could go on in refuting many things in this review but let just say that we pray that you are ok and receive the help you need in your journey.

### 1/5 — Annoying.

*2020-11-14*

This app is fun to use to interact with other moms. However whenever you disagree with another mom/social media app user and they report you for such a silly reason. It shouldn’t take the app moderators more then a day or two to unblock an account. When you message the app owner, and explain what happened and that you didn’t do anything wrong and they don’t respond to you. I find that highly ridiculous. I’ve had this app a few times and have now deleted it twice because of this issue. It’s unfair and unnecessary. It’s a really user friendly app which is why I downloaded it again in attempt to connect with moms. However, when it comes to how the app is run. I cannot tolerate that nonsense. So I have to delete the app again. I will never download it again. I’d resort to another app to connect with other moms. This ain’t the one. They’re unfair.

### 1/5 — Gros zéro

### 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!

### 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

### 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!!

### 5/5 — Nice group of Moms

*2021-09-15, version 1.25.12*

I heard about this app from a mom group on Facebook and it sounded interesting. I have a very hard time making friends and I don’t like to post my son on Facebook very much due to the world we live in. I joined the app and I absolutely love that it’s all moms! The ladies are super sweet and Audrey is very inviting. She sends you tips on how to use the app and make friends. I have only talked to one mom so far but I love that this is a safe space for new moms and even seasoned moms to post about there day to day life and ask questions. I have been through several apps and groups on Facebook for moms but this is by far the best one yet! I highly recommend this app for any new or seasoned moms!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much Ashley 🥰

### 5/5 — Superbe app

*2021-06-20*

J’adore cette app ! Je me suis faite quelques supers bonnes amies ❤️

### 5/5 — Great parenting app

*2021-05-26, version 1.25.12*

I like it, you learn a lot from other moms, no adds and a lot of transparency from the creator. Easy and a safe way to make friends!
