Good but could be better – rTribe Counseling & Community Review

I mostly enjoy this app. It’s helped me find connections with people who struggle with the same things I do. It’s been beneficial in that aspect as well as keeping myself accountable and tracking my sobriety. However, the app itself could use a lot of work. It’s pretty glitchy in that sometimes it won’t let me click on something. It doesn’t seem to work very well with newer iPhones (no Face ID option), and I can’t update my information so my age is outdated. I also wish when I want to comment on someone’s check in that comments would show up for everyone to see rather than send a direct message to the person. I feel like that would give more of a sense of community to the Tribe. I can always message people directly when I want to but just commenting to give encouragement could easily be shown as just a comment. There are some badly needed updates to this app, but the idea behind it is good. They could maybe take some ideas from the way Brain Buddy is set up. That’s another app I’ve used before that had a much better layout.
