I am fifteen years old and I know that the app is for sixteen years old but I really need people to talk to. What I don’t understand is why it is a lifetime ban. Why not a ban until your account says your sixteen? ### 4/5 — Weird panda glitch *2026-08-02, version 8.44.117* Anytime I try typing pillow in the app it changes to panda. I will only type pil but the second l will suddenly change the word to panda. It’s not on my autocorrect and doesn’t make sense in context. Haven’t seen any other word do this and no other app I checked did this. Doesn’t change much just odd. ### 2/5 — Did not help *2026-06-25, version 8.43.45* Posted and got ignored Deleted and reposted still nothing Kept going you get the picture They claim your "not alone" when it's really just a popularity contest like every other app.... ### 2/5 — When I put July 14, 1997 than it tells me that I have to be 16+ like um I’m 28 years old 🙄 *2026-05-05, version 8.43.34* I never had that problem when I use this app on Android like I hope that’s fixed soon cuz 1997 isn’t under 16 n I think this one is the only one that lets u use it for 100% free to talk about your moods like I hope it’s fixed soon and let me use it when I put 1997, which I was born in that year ### 2/5 — Often toxic community and not enough Moderation *2026-03-17, version 8.43.1* This app is meant for venting and just for promoting health discussion. Not really for posting hateful remarks and inciteful things that belong more so on twitter (X). Usually the mods have been very good. There are many reasons to filter reporting (in their menu with descriptions of each), and often I find myself reporting a lot of posts on this app, as I find it full of men hating women that endlessly post negative and hateful things towards men. Or people posting hate threads about Christians. Or people just posting things that shouldn’t be on a mental health app. (Like about war stuff and all). Opening this app and seeing so much targeted hate makes me feel like this app isn’t for some, which isn’t I’m sure how they intend it. Usually mods have been good, but today I reported 3 posts, 2 were saying that they hope iran kills trump in a non direct way, and one said retard…. Only 1 post was removed… it was indeed the later and not the other two. I like this app. I think it’s a good idea, but it definitely needs better moderation. I shouldn’t click someone’s profile and see them posting hateful/violent things on this app for weeks and not a single mod has seen it. Hopefully the app improves for the betterment of everyone ### 1/5 — Sucks *2026-02-18, version 8.42.54* I can’t finish making my account because no matter what date I put, it says it’s invalid. ### 3/5 — Plz fix 🙏🏻🙏🏻 *2026-02-09, version 8.41.47* Coming back to it after a few months, been a longtime user 5+ years & I think it’s a great app!! But it logged me out of my account.. I can only get into my account with my gmail account. I clicked ‘or log in ‘ to which it takes me to the ‘welcome back page’ then ‘continue with google’ I Choose the email that is associated with my account to continue with TalkLife. Only for it to pop up & say ‘ it looks like the email address is already associated with email/password account. Please log in with your email/password instead.’ Which I’d obviously just done… plz fix this broken link 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 ### 1/5 — Unsafe app for women *2026-01-29, version 8.41.36* This app is toxic and unsafe for women, moderators will sexualize you just for a fully clothed body image and suspend you for speaking up against it. after suffering for months of harassment, they keep silent instead of banning the perpetrators. This community is so unsafe for everyone. Your mental health will be worse after joining and if you’re not a pervert or catfish, this isn’t a safe space for you. We lost vent because of this poorly moderated trash. Sad. ### 1/5 — Religious hate *2026-01-19, version 8.40.12* Don’t take it into account to care about discrimination towards religious people ### 1/5 — Garbage app don’t waste your tim *2026-01-17, version 8.40.12* Complete garbage app. They want too ban things that do go with their own beliefs. Unless don’t waste your time or money. ### 1/5 — Guidelines too strict *2025-12-16, version 8.39.89* They have banned my account because I simply expressed my opinion. I didn’t swear, insult, or been aggressive with anyone. They suspend and banned you over little things. Not a place for support by any means ### 1/5 — harassment!! *2025-11-30, version 8.39.82* I want to report a concerning issue. I know a few users who befriend girls here, ask for their Snapchat, send and request inappropriate content, and if the girls don’t comply, they block them. Afterward, they delete their accounts and create new ones to do the same thing again. I think you should take action against these users because this platform is supposed to be a safe place, and I recently experienced something like this myself. It barely feels safe anymore. i dont know why those people dont get their devices banned and why you arent taking actions ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Power trip *2026-08-26, version 8.44.117* Admins power trip and delete comments and posts which don’t even violate their rules. Mess with one of their buddies and make them look like a fool in a debate, you can cleanly bet everyone of your replies will be removed. Stupid British app taking on what the government like to do all the time. Silence legitimate criticism ### 1/5 — This is a terrible app for your mental health *2026-07-17, version 8.44.112* There is so much bullying going on in here, and it's always the same group of people bullying and nothing is done about it. I am 100% convinced they are friends with the admins and moderators. The people they bully always ends up suspended or banned for it, while the bullies do not face any consequences. Any type of response to them will get you banned. They can manipulate the admins into banning you by only reporting to them about what you said. Admins see everything and still believe these people. So what does that look like to you? They are being favored. It is really disgusting considering this is meant for your mental wellbeing. If someone is being harassed and bullied, and they may not have a good mental health, there is obviously going to be a reaction. Admins ONLY care about the reaction from the victim than the person bullying/trolling them. It's happened to me and many others. I have been harassed and bullied nonstop by that same group of people in a group chat, and ended up being removed from the chat by a very biased moderator based off of only my response. After being continuously harassed and talked about, I decided to leave it alone and take a break from this app. Still wasn't enough. That group of people kept actively trying to get me banned, and after going back on it after a long day of not being on there, it says my account was banned for 2 days. I suffer with severe depression and should not be going through this. Shame on you guys. I should sue you guys for emotional distress. If you are looking for a break off of regular social media apps and to better your mental wellbeing, this is not the place for it. Don't even bother. ### 1/5 — YOUR INFORMATION ISNT PRIVATE! *2026-06-18, version 8.43.45* I’m gonna be honest, you’re probably better off at just showing your hole to people on the street. Not kidding. They’re now owned by some weird data mining company and banned my boy for speaking on it ### 1/5 — Pretty toxic *2026-05-13, version 8.43.34* Trying to be positive and supportive, but even the admins are abusive with their language. ### 1/5 — Bad app *2026-05-07, version 8.43.34* How am I supposed to talk about sexual assault without it including ANY sexual content, never deleted an app so fast in my life ### 1/5 — It’s a Trap *2026-04-23, version 8.43.34* I honestly feel like TalkLife is a bit of a trap. It presents itself as a mental health support app, but in reality it often feels more like just another dating or social validation platform. The whole experience seems heavily influenced by appearance and charm. If you’re good-looking or naturally charismatic, you get attention and support. If you’re not, it can feel like you’re invisible or, worse, treated poorly. That completely defeats the purpose of a mental health space. What’s more disappointing is the level of negativity. Instead of a supportive environment, I’ve seen a lot of dismissive behavior and even bullying. For an app that’s supposed to help people when they’re vulnerable, that’s a serious problem. Overall, it doesn’t feel like a safe or genuinely supportive space. If you’re looking for real mental health support, this probably isn’t the place. ### 1/5 — DOES NOT WORK *2026-04-22, version 8.43.34* I would have tried it out and maybe gave it a good review but it won’t even let me input my date of birth to access the app. I’m TWENTY THREE why am I having issues truly a waste of my time ### 1/5 — Not ideal for English speakers, but well-suited for Hindi speakers. *2026-04-13, version 8.43.34* It seems like the admins may not be fully fluent in English and may have limited reading comprehension. I wouldn’t recommend it, because anything you say is likely to be misinterpreted unless it’s written in very simple, straightforward English. ### 1/5 — Just an app used for teen dating *2026-03-29, version 8.43.17* Had my account for two days, made one post. Second day, the first post I seen was a guy complaining that nobody was talking to him (he had just made his account that day). Lots of teenagers acting big, rude and very off putting for what the app is meant to be used for. ### 1/5 — Vent was better *2026-03-06, version 8.42.66* This is just a social media app, not something for mental health. They don’t care about their users. Look at all the feedback, negative and positive, they don’t even care enough to reply to people and rectify things or even thank people. This is just another Twitter clone, not a Vent clone. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love it! *2026-08-03, version 8.44.117* Totally what I was looking for in an app and I feel better already. ### 5/5 — So boring app *2026-07-10, version 8.44.108* The app is nice but full of Indians and other countries I don’t think there’s American people on there you can’t advertise on there just talk they need to improve I think I wasted my data and time I’m leaving the app now ### 5/5 — A Long Time Needed Rate *2026-05-25, version 8.43.34* This app has been a great safe space for me for awhile, I like how it has many options to choose to cover out the chats or not. Also it’s nothing like Reddit where people will attack you for the most ridiculous things that’s out there. There should be more apps like this out there honestly. ### 5/5 — So chill *2026-05-14, version 8.43.34* This app is awesome. No bloat, ads, or BS! Total interaction with other people. The purest form of social media. ### 5/5 — Love this *2026-03-28, version 8.43.17* Love sharing my problems in this app. ### 5/5 — Very good app *2026-03-27, version 8.43.17* It’s an amazing app theee you can make friends talk to people freely no need to subscribe anything like this it helps me a lot with negative thoughts thanks god I found this app I 100% recommend it to you ### 5/5 — My favourite app *2026-01-27, version 8.40.12* I love it 🥰 ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2026-01-02, version 8.40.10* It’s really helped me express myself and be me with nobody judging only supporting ### 5/5 — Great app *2025-11-12, version 8.38.16* Very helpful people and you don’t get judged. Just talk ### 5/5 — Emotional support app is here *2025-11-07, version 8.38.16* If you’re talkative person like me and love to make new friends who share the same emotions. Join now.
