I submitted a tip about this girl I knew who was very mentally ill, self harming, and she kept claiming that she got raped on six different occasions like six different times by the same guy which wasn’t true because I was with him for two of the nights that she claimed it happened, I was with him the entire night too so it was a lie. She would lie about big things and cut herself and was very depressed. I submitted a tip and they told me to call 911 or contact a trusted adult. I don’t have a trusted adult that can contact her and I made that very clear. They refused to do anything because she didn’t flat out say “I’m gonna kill myself” or “I’m gonna shoot up the school” or something like that and a few weeks after I submitted the tip she took her own life. Just beg cause and I quote “contact a trusted adult, this is not how the program works.” I gave her full name and school so they can find her. They told me to call 911 but this wasn’t like a 911 emergency. It was gonna turn into one I know but they could’ve done something before and didn’t.

First of all I submitted a tip on the website about my friend who was doing drugs and was harming herself from stress and nothing happened so I downloaded the app. I submitted another tip a week ago and nothing has happened either. In the presentation they make it seem like all you have to do is speak up and it’ll be taken care but no one is doing anything. I started reading other reviews and I was definitely seeing a pattern. People were saying how they contacted ok2say and sometimes ok2say would reply saying call 911 or contact someone else who can help your problem. I just don’t understand why there is an app supposed to help students or anybody report a crime or somebody who needs help if their just going to tell you to tell 911 or not respond at all or do anything. And when they reply to these reviews they don’t even address their problems. Teachers tell you to use ok2say but it clearly doesn’t work and kids don’t know another place to go to. If I could give them negative stars I would.

This old man was demanding I send him nudes, of course I didn’t, but i was afraid he would convince other young girls to send. I contacted ok2say and they did nothing. In the presentations at schools, they make it sound so easy and if you let them know, they will take care of everything and it will be ok, but that is not true. I was told to block him, tell my parents, and call 911. First of all, 911 is for emergencies, like if someone is dying or being hurt. A conversation that happened 2 days ago is not an emergency. Second, I contacted ok2say because I didnt want to tell my parents. And blocking him will do nothing. When I told them I didn’t want to do these things they had a little bit of a rude tone. They then asked if I had his name, phone number, anything, and I said I knew nothing because it was on snapchat, and they responded with, you shouldn’t talk to strangers on the internet. This was a waste of time, I got no where with this, and this man is still out there preying on young woman.

This app is a lie and not at all how they made it appear in the school presentations. You can’t get help with the app itself, because it requires a phone number that it will text to. Not everyone has a phone. I don’t have a phone and so the several reports go right to my mom’s phone. That’s a huge problem. Kids don’t want their parents knowing everything, especially if they’re being abused by them. This app shows no real care for anyone’s struggles other than maybe suicide, but they don’t do a thing about bullying or harassment, which leads to depression and being suicidal. I’ve already been depressed and suicidal for years and on top of that I’ve been abused and am being bullied on a daily basis, and have received no real help from the school, despite telling them everything and asking repeatedly for help. The school system is corrupt and this app is a cheap attempt at pretending to care.
