Great app

Was recommended this app at a training today- fabulous resource and will be recommending to my clients.

Downloaded but it won’t load

Cannot access the downloaded app

Mental health app

Brilliant resource

Truly lifesaving

I can’t find the words to express my sincerest gratitude to the developers of this app. Thank you strangers for keeping me safe when I wasn’t able to.

I love it!

Works very well in a crisis, just wish the resources out of Britain included America

Has helped me so many times

I was recommended this by a professional and I’ve had it for years, thank you for making this app :)

Would give more stars!

I cannot recommend this app highly enough. It goes beyond safety plans and breathing/grounding exercises to be pretty customisable. I love the LifeBox feature, where you can put photos, files, and videos that are meaningful to you. I just wish I could change the order, as in the current version they stay in the order you add them.

Excellent quality app

Highly aclaimed and always improving

Some excellent resources, needs improvement

I was recommended by a mental health nurse to download this app following a suicide attempt. I have used all of its features, including the life box and the safety plan and the many links to helplines, web chats and other helpful sites. It’s very simple to use, and not at all complicated or overly colourful - as that can be off-putting and frustrating when you’re in a dark, low mood. If I feel myself on the brink of a crisis again, I know I can use the advice available on the app, or contact one of the many helplines or organisations it lists. It also gives me a place to put other personal contacts I can go to for help. The breathing exercise is also good for a simple inhale-exhale thing you can do when it all gets too much.

As for improvements, perhaps certain pages on the app could be quicker and easier to reach in less clicks. The design could do with a smoother update. And it could have more options to customise the app to meet the specific needs of each user - e.g. easily available resources on a particular issue that the user can put on their homepage, whether it’s addiction or self-harm or bipolar, etc.

Continuous Crashing

Can’t even access it without the app crashing

Good but age restrictions

This is a good app for mental health and stuff but the age restrictions should be lowered as I’m 13 and have had depression since I was 11 and I know for a fact many primary school children have depression but adults put it off cause they’re kids. This is why the age restrictions should be lowered, so that kids can get the help they’re needing as well. Apart from that this is good 😁

Left me alone

It’s been upgrading for months now, can’t access the app when I need it. Loved it but would have to delete all my data to get it back. I always try but am left at lowest points

Age Restriction

The App itself is brilliant. Full of information you need in a time of crisis.

Unfortunately more and more people are becoming depressed. In my 20 years of being alive I’ve heard of Atleast 7 incidents where children in primary school have committed suicide.

This is really disturbing. I hope that the age restriction can be lowered as many young people who have committed suicide at such a young age are not able to get help from people close to them (not all but some)

Mental health is a BIG issue! Covid-19 is impacting people of all ages and this really needs to be addressed. Instead of being left to worry in fear and uncertainty, lets make a difference in mental well-being.

Stress is one of the number one causes for health issues, including weakened immune systems. Improving our overall health will have outstanding results.

Great app overall! Just wish the age restriction was lower or unrestricted so anyone can use this.

One life saved today

This app literally saved my life today and I am eternally grateful ❤️

Really good

This is a great addition to Hertfordshire. To be able to easily access services will be so helpful if in crisis.

Pretty basic

I doubt this app is of much use to anyone with a serious mental health problem but it offers some good basic advice

A good start

I like the idea of this app. I was disappointed that there were a fair few links that don’t work. It would be nice to have the plan more customisable too.

So editable, fresh, innovative

What a great idea! So useful, so many diff options that could cater to anyone. Love the section where you can add personal photos and resources that would suit me! Excited for the next update!

Thank you

It's so important to have a tool like this available and accessible. Thank you for creating it I'm sure it will help a lot of people.
