A MUST HAVE for Empaths that must communicate with a Narcissist!!!!
MsMimiMartini
This app has helped me immensely with communicating with someone in my life that has abused me sexually, financially and mentally for many years. Someone I have no choice but to communicate with. The all fingers their messages to keep me from becoming triggered and it also rewrites my messages to make them less-emotional and less-satisfying for the Narc. It speaks in the grey-rock method that Dr. Ramani teaches so much about. This is a life send because the manipulation and abuse was mentally overwhelming for me before I used this app. I used a discerner app that is very popular and I was constantly abused and harassed on there. G-d bless you to the people who created this! You truly are saving lives by helping people heal and lower cortisol levels which bring many ailments.
A powerful resource that changed everything!
Justamommadoingherbest
This app changed my entire co-parenting experience in a positive way at the perfect time. We are high conflict and had bad communication cycles. My ex refused to get on an app and I needed something to change to break our cycle. I found this app and it changed everything. It stopped me from communicating emotionally and it helped me interpret his communication in a way I had never before picked up on. It gave me confidence to identify his communication as abusive and unacceptable, and helped ensure I didn’t continue to repeat or contribute to the cycle. I highly recommend trying this app - it was transformative in my co-parenting, high conflict dynamic!
Smooths out the rough edges of co-parenting communication
Pippi du
BestInterest is like a soft cushion between you and the harsh edges of co-parenting, taking the emotional charge out of those nasty texts that can make everything feel heavier. When a message comes through that would normally set off alarms, the app gently reframes it, stripping away the sting and leaving just the facts. It’s as if the app understands that beneath the anger, there’s just the need to communicate, and it helps you focus on that instead of the heat. By filtering out the emotional noise, BestInterest creates a space where co-parenting becomes less about conflict and more about understanding, even in the toughest moments.

This app has been a godsend for my co-parenting situation! The last 2 years of my life have been incredibly stressful with my high-conflict ex. I wish I had this when we were first starting the divorce process. The way that the app cuts out unnecessary/inappropriate parts of messages is like having a neutral personal assistant that I can actually afford. It has improved our communication and my anxiety immensely. Highly recommend for anyone navigating a difficult co-parenting journey!
