About this app

talking-buddyā„¢ļøā€“ Instant Emotional Support, Anytime You Need It

At talking-buddyā„¢ļø, we understand that sometimes you just need someone to talk to — someone who listens without judging, interrupting, or offering unwanted advice. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, lonely, anxious, or simply need to let it out, talking-buddyā„¢ļø is here for you.

What is talking-buddyā„¢ļø?
talking-buddyā„¢ļø is a mobile platform that connects people who want to vent (we call them callers) with empathetic, real human beings who are ready to listen (talking buddies). It is not a therapy or crisis line. It is not coaching. It is a safe, anonymous, and supportive space to release your thoughts and emotions — right when you need it.

Key Features:

Instant, Safe, and Secure Support
No more waiting for appointments or fearing judgment. Open the app, browse available listeners, and connect instantly. Your identity stays private, and no personal information is required to talk.

Choose Your Listener
You are in control. Browse profiles of available talking buddies, read about their listening styles, and choose who feels right for your moment.

Simple, Seamless Call Experience
Just a few taps to start a call. You will be connected to your selected listener via an in-app voice call — no phone number sharing, no texts.

Pay As You Go
Only pay for the minutes you use. No subscriptions or long-term commitments required. Just open the app when you need support.

Earn by Listening
Compassionate listeners can register as talking buddies and get paid per call. If you are a good listener with a kind heart, you can make a difference — and earn money doing it.

U.S.-Based Listener Network
All listeners (talking buddies) are based in the U.S., ensuring culturally relevant support and alignment with local norms. Callers are currently based in the U.S. and Canada.

Secure and Confidential
We do not store sensitive personal data. All calls are private, and our app has strict policies in place to prevent abuse, harassment, and any other inappropriate behavior. No nudity, explicit content, or hate speech allowed.

Who It Is For:

Anyone feeling overwhelmed, unheard, or emotionally drained

People between therapy sessions or waiting for their first appointment

Individuals facing loneliness, heartbreak, anxiety, stress, or burnout

Stay-at-home parents, students, professionals, caregivers — anyone needing to vent without pressure

Kind-hearted individuals looking to make a positive impact by becoming paid listeners

Why talking-buddyā„¢ļø?
Life can be heavy. And not everyone has someone to talk to when they need it most. talking-buddyā„¢ļøfills that gap — offering immediate, human connection when you are struggling with emotions, life events, or simply feeling alone.

We believe that you do not need to be a therapist to be therapeutic. Sometimes, just being heard is enough. And sometimes, being the one who listens can be healing too.

Whether you are here to talk or listen, talking-buddy is where healing conversations begin.

Extra star because I didn't get to see the actual support it provided. I couldn't see it, because I had to put in my "city", you know everyone lives in a city. I tried to put the closest city to me, but that wouldn't work because you need to add a postal code or zip code. Apparently the closest city to me, in northern Ontario Canada has been assigned zip codes. Another issue is I think you must talk on the phone. So that's a no-go for me, besides I would be talking to whomever. anyone can volunt
