Ratings and reviews

I really like this app. Listeners are here to listen and there are some nice support groups that have helped me. That's all pointless now because I can't even use the app. I keep getting "network error" even if there isn't a problem with it. I have tried to fix it so much, even deleting and reinstalling the app, but it doesn't work. I didn't email them until about 2 weeks after, but when I did, they said they would reply in 3-5 business days. It's been months, with no reply!

This app is great for finding someone to talk to, especially if you are going through a difficult time. It's fast and convenient, and it easily enables people to open up right away with the anonymous algorithm set up. The only issue I have, is that I noticed there are a number of people who use this app for inappropriate purposes like asking/saying sexual or personal things to listeners. I hope there is a future update where this can be cleared up in some way.

I love the website, but the app is just super spotty. Anytime I try to connect with a listener, I'm told none are available, and Noni (the chat not) asks the same questions over and over, then my answer from the first time automatically fills in and the chat freezes. Not really sure what I'm doing wrong. Will probably just stick with the site honestly.
