## Most critical reviews (6 lowest-rated)

### 2/5 — Just motions

*2023-07-01, version 2022.01*

The app doesn't really offer any kind of real process or solution. It's just writing down what's on your mind.

### 5/5 — A wonderful way to let go

*2022-10-11, version 2022.01*

Thank you for this app. Beautiful and simple. Therapeutic.

### 5/5 — Works for me

*2022-10-11*

Just wrote and released my thought. It made me feel better getting it out of my head. Really liking this app.

### 5/5 — Really fun to use

*2022-08-29*

Came across this app accidentally—I’m so glad I did.

### 5/5 — Excellent for mental health!

*2021-02-25*

I recently stumbled across this app and have found it to be very useful for keeping thoughts in check or venting about whatever is on my mind. The fact that none of whatever is typed is saved anywhere is reassuring. 

However there is one suggestion I would like to make for the developers. When the “Release this” button is pressed, the note gets folded and the animation makes it feel like an email is being sent. That animation appears to be contradictory to the fact that nothing is saved. Perhaps a different animation would be better?  Maybe the note going up in flames or is shredded instead?  Just a more definitive animation for that note not being saved or sent anywhere.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for your support, and for your feedback! I've gotten similar comments from some testers, so I've added a suggestion on the app's public roadmap (https://thoughtdetox.app/roadmap). Feel free to add more suggestions there, or comment and vote on what's already there!

### 5/5 — Beautiful, simple, helpful

*2021-02-16*

If you find yourself ruminating on a negative thought, open this app, write it down and release it. What you write is disposed of, not sent or saved anywhere. The elegant animation folds it into an envelope and it’s whisked away. It’s surprisingly calming.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for the kind words, I’m glad you’re finding the app helpful!
