### 5/5 — So Comforting!

*2022-11-07, version 1.12*

I love this app, I’ve never used anything like this. It’s so comforting to hear everyone’s responses and be able to reply back. This app has also helped me in opening my voice and be able to voice my opinions. I’m really enjoying this app and the community of it.

### 5/5 — Good app with potential

*2022-11-04, version 1.12*

Seems to be in a very good state technically. But there is a completely different feel to this than other social media spaces. There is something super personal about using your voice instead of just typing things. I would love to see what becomes of this

### 5/5 — I haven’t fallen in love with an app like this before.

*2022-11-04, version 1.12*

I wrote a review and App Store decided to play with me, so here is a redo. I really love this app. I genuinely enjoyed every second of using it. I had no technical difficulties and it has such a personal design feel that my brain was fully engaged, and for someone with ADHD, the app was easy to navigate and kept me stimulated. 
I think Somewhere Good will change the course, style, and future of communication for the next decade. I can already see communication students analyzing its impact in their college courses. 
Social Media apps are great and all, but they feel generic, monetary, and give no space for authenticity and honest communication the way Somewhere Good does. The prompts alone give space for people to not only show up as themselves, but to also engage in conversations that bring out feelings and topics that may seem taboo, not easily discussed, etc. I think also the way conversations and prompts are set up gives people the chance to directly and intimately communicate and respond and feel like apart of a community.
I can already see the app being used to share spoken word poetry, songs, book club meetings, etc.
I love it. I know all of my friends and I would constantly use it, and I really wish we had it during quarantine.

### 5/5 — Something Great

*2022-11-03, version 1.12*

At first I was hesitant about this app as I didn’t entirely understand the concept, but as I used it more I found myself engaging in conversation and thinking of topics I never would simply think of on my own. Would definitely recommend for those looking to get out of their comfort zone and have some socialization from the ease of voice memos!

### 5/5 — No lie

*2022-11-02, version 1.12*

I thought I was going to feel like this was work but really it feels good to talk on here. You’d be surprised at the answers ppl give and the love you get on here. Great app!

### 5/5 — A safer space

*2022-11-01, version 1.12*

I love listening to meaningful discussions in-person and this app is online version of a safer space. It’s helpful for a social introvert like myself to feel comfortable sharing my stories!

### 5/5 — Cathartic

*2022-10-31, version 1.12*

This app is pretty cool. It’s got a pretty intuitive interface. And it encourages introspection while also letting you gain perspective from other people.

### 5/5 — Something good!

*2022-10-29, version 1.12*

This app is great, listening to peoples outlook on various topics is very cool I’ve even left quite a few notes of my own hope you guys like them!

### 5/5 — We need Somewhere Good in every state

*2022-10-20, version 1.11*

The app is beautifully designed and brings a smile to my face each time I listen to the perspectives and notes from peers around the world. The Somewhere Good physical space is going to be my 2nd home 🥰 it’s incredibly divine, intentionally decorated and bring a feeling a safety that I rarely feel in communal spaces. Keep up the great work Naj!

### 5/5 — truly somewhere good

*2022-10-18, version 1.11*

This app makes me so happy on so many different levels! I’ve been on it since the beta testing, and I was struck by how communal and intimate it felt. I was nervous that when it went live it would lose that feeling, but it hasn’t! Its maintained the things I’ve loved it about (listening to voices, intimate conversations, stunning visuals) while continuing to expand and grow. I can’t wait to see how far this goes, and I’m grateful to have been a part of it in this way 🧡

### 5/5 — Somewhere good is bringing something new

*2022-08-08, version 1.9*

Delivering exactly what it’s name promises, somewhere good feels like a respite of internet that allows for short form introspection (in the form of 1 minute audio notes) in a judgement free zone. The feeling of the space itself is co-created by the thoughtfulness of each participant (responding to juicy prompt questions at times deeply thought provoking and at times exuberantly playful). It feels so much more direct and meaningful to connect with others’ thoughts by responding to notes with your own, or even just listening in to an intimate thought. Also brilliantly and beautifully designed 😍

### 5/5 — Somewhere AMAZING!

*2022-08-08, version 1.9*

It is truly amazing to find a space curated with such thoughtfulness that is conducive of a genuine experience in high contrast to other social media platforms. The conversations being held here bring interactive to new heights. It’s a special thing to find a community of people to vibe with intentionally on a daily. It feels so safe and fun and I couldn’t be happier with my experience thus far ✨✨

### 5/5 — Good Times 🌀🌱✨🌈🧡

*2022-06-07, version 1.8*

A fresh beautifully-designed experience. Thoughtful and well intentioned community. Every visit is truly inspiring. Look forward to seeing this space evolve and grow.

### 5/5 — No pressure. Energizing engagement w/ others.

*2022-06-01, version 1.8*

This app is really fun. Like really fun! It’s so clear they’ve painstakingly mulled over every detail of this app to nurture such a safe, creative space, where authentic interactions thrive. As a true ambivert, this is the kind of social app that innately serves both the introvert and extrovert in me, which engage with others so differently, yet always crave stimulation from like-minded people. The genius of this app is that it does this effortlessly. I’m here to stay.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — App won’t let me login or sign up

*2022-05-31, version 1.8*

The app keeps asking me for a code and it’s not working at all

### 2/5 — Beautiful but not at all accessible

*2022-11-30, version 1.14*

Not accessible for folks with visual or auditory disabilities. While you can add a transcript to your audio file, literally no one does. I’m disappointed, after originally being told there were accessibility features around the time of the launch.

### 2/5 — I just want to read not hear ppls voices

*2022-07-22, version 1.9*

I was really excited for the launch of this app. When it came out I was horrified when I realized it was just a voice message and listening app. It’s for this reason why I didn’t really take to clubhouse. I was hoping this would be more of a traditional interaction app where we could read things and comment things without having to hear ppl. I have a really deep aversion to hearing breathing from other people in my headphones as they talk. Guess it’s back to Instagram Twitter and Facebook for me, which I’m very sad about. Wish the original Ethels Club was still up & running as it was during the earlier parts of pandemic.

### 4/5 — It can be fun and de stressing!

*2022-11-14, version 1.12*

I’ve been using this app for a week now and I’ve really enjoyed it. It’s been nice to let some of the thoughts in my head out into an open space. I really like how the questions focus on mental health, the world, and personal feelings. Nothing was too thought invoking or challenging in a way that would be stressful. I also like how there is limited social interaction. You don’t have to interact with others unless you want to! Would recommend for someone looking for some mental health routine.

### 4/5 — Fun for finding new faces and voices

*2022-11-11, version 1.12*

I have enjoyed my time using the Somewheregood app so far! The prompts are so thought provoking and I love exploring the thoughts from all of the app’s contributors. Would recommend to all my creative friends!

### 4/5 — Community

*2022-10-31, version 1.12*

I like the idea of leaving voice messages. For me it was almost I knew the person. It’s a different than tik tok of IG when you can see the person. This felt like high school talking on the house phone. I would use this app for a place to ground myself and a place to get opinions about the world right now.

### 4/5 — Nothing without intention

*2022-10-21, version 1.11*

Experimenting with an app that advocates for slow connection and intention as a social app is really dope. AND if you’re in New York and have a chance to visit the physical space - DO IT. Community. 

I so so appreciate voice notes so love it for that and being able to interact with others who have such different and at times similar trains of thoughts. I do wish there was more ways to engage ie: connecting with people’s profiles, option to write text if audio isn’t your thing, and other ways of engaging. Looking forward to the growth!

### 4/5 — I couldn’t get past the code to sign up

*2022-05-24, version 1.8*

*update* if anyone has this issue click “app support” and take the 6 question quiz

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2023-01-21, version 1.14*

What an incredible app this is! It ties in beautifully with the space — but the app design and functionality itself is flawless. Shoutout to the creative and product team

### 5/5 — a worthy addition to your wellness practice

*2023-01-08, version 1.14*

130 days into my daily meditation practice, and I can earnestly say my first interactions with self-care and transcendent wellness practices were with Ethel’s Club in 2020. their digital oasis, Somewhere Good, is as seminal, revolutionary, and inspiring as their initial offerings during the pandemic.

I highly recommend this app for folks seeking to slow down, listen, and engage in a relaxing, risk-free, and fun daily dialogue centering self.

thank you to the SG team for providing such a wonderful digital container for learning about the self through speaking and listening to others.

### 5/5 — What’s the “code hook up”

*2022-12-28, version 1.14*

Is there supposed to be some special password in order to create an account and use the app?

### 5/5 — Somewhere good is the new face of the internet

*2022-11-21, version 1.14*

Ok so I was so excited to try this app out I have heart a lot more things about it now that I am using it. I honestly love it so much something about being able to say something with your own voice that makes it feel so authentic! I would just say I hate that you can’t reply to replies with an audio message back:( and I wish you could choose what kind of emojis to reply with. Also I wish there were more worlds or a way to choose things you like and have more worlds that cater to that genre like cooking or fashion etc.Besides that it is a great app and I can see it being frequently used and very popular in the near future. It’s a great way to connect with different people. I love the format of everything and the way it’s set up it’s honestly something I look forward to participating in a lot and when people reply I’m all happy🙊I really hope more people get into this app fr!

### 5/5 — This is somewhere good

*2022-11-14, version 1.12*

The title is intriguing, the color palette is very inviting, the use of motion and design is inspiring and once you download the app and you enter the world, it is very rewarding. I’ve always said we need to start conversations more and more conversations about real life things & emotions This is it this is literally the starting point of somewheregood

### 5/5 — Sense of Community

*2022-11-14, version 1.12*

I really like how this app has a sense of community. Nevertheless you could go in anonymous or regular and still feel wanted and comfortable. I think using voice memos is a smart move to allow each other to connect and truly feel the emotions of others. It gives off similar vibes of a text voice memo rather than like a podcast.

### 5/5 — This is so engaging

*2022-11-10, version 1.12*

I like how personal but also how collective this app is. It’s really interesting hearing the responses of strangers, it feels like I’m able to connect with someone I’ve never met. Hearing their voice also helps form that connection. The prompts are very interesting cause they’re things I don’t necessarily think on the daily
I’m excited to see how this app grows as more people join! Thank you!! <3

### 5/5 — Creative way of communicating!

*2022-11-09, version 1.12*

I’ve had so much fun listening to what people think on various topics and learning about different cultures and lifestyles. This app is super easy to use and access and allows you to meet new people on a more intimate level than just texting. I also loved sharing my thoughts on different topics/prompts that I had never even thought about. There’s a wide variety of topics to talk about and they’re always changing to keep you talking. 10/10 recommend!

### 5/5 — Beautiful App!!

*2022-11-08, version 1.12*

once you download and sign up for this app you will be astonished.
it is so aesthetically pleasing it makes it easy to engage. Prompts are well thought out and actually stimulating. It’s a moment out of your day where you can sit back, think critically with no pressure and feel heard.
I love this app 💖

### 5/5 — Darling voice memo app <3

*2022-11-08, version 1.12*

Such a pleasure to hop on this app and spill my little thoughts from my mind. Everyone has quirky memos about themselves— it’s so fun to listen and learn more about my fellow humans :)
