I emailed in June to have my subscription cancelled as per their Terms and Conditions, no response. I emailed again in July - no response. I just got charged again and I’m fuming. I haven’t even had the app on my phone for over a year and they keep charging me and not responding to my emails. CANCEL MY GD SUBSCRIPTION.

If I could zero stars I would
If I could zero stars I would. The app is so really just literature on self esteem that is common knowledge or a therapist can tell you. To cancel you have to email a random email that no one replies to.

Subscription Cancellation: No response
I have had a membership with the self esteem app for a few months and emailed their support email to cancel my subscription. It has been over 4 days since I sent it with no reply. The app was very useful, but currently I am getting charged 50$/mo for no reason.

Cancelling subscription
I also am having issues cancelling my subscription. I reached out via email on 8/24 and haven't gotten a response. There's no other way to cancel!! Very frustrating since they don't respond even though they say they'll respond in 24-72 hours...

defunct? scam?
The app nor site allows you to end your subscription. There is no way of communicating about your account. neither the app or site has billing, password, registration info etc… its just name and thats it… the only way to communicate is thru the email address external to the app or site
theres been no updates to the app in over 2 years… so strange. seems defunct to me.
yet they have charged my cc for a fee. i had no idea that there was an annual fee. I've received no emails from them notifying me of a renewal. Ive received no emails from them since 8/2024.
theres no place to check my current preferences. that page just shows name and whether i want to unsubscribe… no option to see current settings.
i have send an email to their hello at selfesteem dot app to request cancellation. hopefully i hear from them thru this site or the email i sent to them.

App content is on procrastination
App content is on procrastination, not self-esteem. It's great if you find that you are procrastinating, but if that's not your core issue, don't bother. The content of their daily emails is great, but it doesn't match the app. Additionally, the app is very buggy. Constantly having to force quit, or navigate between pages to get the daily content to show up

We’re sorry the app content didn’t meet your expectations. While procrastination is a common barrier to self-worth, we recognize it’s not everyone’s main focus. Your insight helps us improve clarity around what the app offers and where it can grow.
We’ve also flagged the technical issues with the team so they can investigate and resolve them. Thanks again for helping us make the experience better.

Will not tell you when your subscription renews and auto-charges you refusing to refund.
You must pay for a subscription when you first download the app, but neither the app or the website has a page for the subscription information, not your signup date or renewal date or anything you can do to monitor your plan details, let alone edit them.
They send no communications, but just auto-charge you for renewal and when you ask to cancel or be refunded, they claim you agreed to this when initially signing up and will not do so without 24-hrs notice before the renewal date, but again, there is no way for you to know WHEN this is happening because there are no emails about it nor is it available information on the app or their website.
Horrible company and business model, stay away from these guys at all costs.
Update 5/13:
I am editing my commet because Trust Pilot has informed me the company is trying to have my review removed because they think it is inauthentic. Like their reply says: this information was DISPLAYED at sign-up, but that was it. If it was buried in the agreed upon terms that I would have no way to view/edit this information without directly interacting with their support team, then so be it. My review is low because there is no record of it provided to you, or available to you, after you move past that initial sign-up screen on the app. Nothing in your profile on the app or their website, you have no personal record of anything you agreed to after you leave that inital sign-up page. I still have my sign-up confiramtion email and this information is not there either, just some onboarding tips about how to get the most out of the app's services. So this company gets 1-star for it's horrible handling of service and SNEAKY ways of auto-billing you because again, you have no record of it, and you have no way to view, let alone edit, your subscription details without contacting their customer service. Why this information is not available to you, the customer, in your own profile, is the question you should be asking yourself. Also note: this is not a US based company. When the subscription renewed, the only reason I knew about it was because my bank informed me of an international transaction and this was it. Otherwise, I would have ended up by like of the other bad reviews where I was repeated charged without my knowledge because they don't send you a reminder about it, nor a confirmation when you pay. You've been warned.

Hi Ra,
Thank you for sharing your feedback.
We’re sorry to hear about your frustration. To clarify, the subscription details—including the billing cycle, renewal policy, and cancellation terms—are displayed clearly during the sign-up process, at checkout, on the thank-you page, and are also outlined in our FAQ section.
We understand it can be frustrating if a renewal catches you by surprise, which is why we do our best to present this information transparently before purchase. That said, we take your feedback seriously and will continue working on making subscription management more accessible within the app and on our website.
If you have any questions about your account or would like help locating your renewal date, feel free to reach out to us directly—we’re here to help.
Warm regards,

Although the app helped me, be aware.
Although the app helped me, be aware of the payments..Oh boy I didn’t pay enough attention and it kept going so I’m now roughly 280$ short because I wasn’t aware of the subscription going - they don’t even send you a reminder that it was renewed. So when you forget about the app you once used, you’re almost tricked.

I paid for a subscription one year ago and then stopped my subscription. I’ve just looked at my bank account which I don’t use anymore to find that they have charged me and I have gone into overdraft!!

The whole website/app is a fraud
The whole website/app is a fraud. They will sign you up and take your money, however you will not be able to cancel your account. They will tell you that you can only contact them via email and then when you do get they will send you a reply in your spam folder. However the email on the spam folder gives a url that you can not even click on and seems likely fraudulent. I have already filed a report with the Federal Trade Commision and took steps to ensure they can not steal any more of my money. Ignore all of the positive and 3 star reviews, they are likely fake as well. Please if you have not already, do not subscribe to this website/app. If you have, encourage you to file a detailed report with dates and all information like I did.

This site/app is deceitful in not stating they are a subscription service and do not let you cancel your subscription
Edit 2: It's been 2 weeks since I asked them to cancel my subscription (which wasn't clear it was a subscription based on their site). They haven't returned my emails. I cancelled my CC in order to stop them from charging me. They are thieves!
Edit: One week after I demanded they cancel my subscription, they still haven't. My support ticket number is 383341. Cancel my subscription or I will report you for unlawful practices.
-----±------
This site/app is deceitful. It markets itself as a one month or 3 month program, yet it bills you monthly, without making it clear that it is a re-curring subscription. And they make it difficult to unsubscribe. There is no place on the site to unsubscribe! I thought since there's no way to unsubscribe that it is a one monthly subscription that I signed up to, but no, they have been charging me monthly. I still don't know how to subscribe.
This taught me to NEVER purchase an app without reading reviews. I've wasted so much money due to their deceitful practices.

Don’t give a penny to self esteem app, no refunds.
The app. was not what I expected at all. The quiz you take up front will show you need help regardless of how you answer it which is very deceiving. It is a basic app. that has you doing all the work like journaling. It’s nothing new or different. What made my experience the worst though is the way they handled my cancellation and return request. I asked for a refund the same day of the purchase and they simply refused. Do not give this company a penny! Terrible organization that are supposed to be therapists that won’t honor a return for something that won’t work for you. It really tells you what this app. is all about. Making money at any cost. Terrible!!

READ ALL REVIEWS BEFORE YOU TRY THIS APP!
I liked the content they provided and found it helpful HOWEVER I find it very dishonest that they do NOT make it clear that it is a recurrent subscription and that you WILL be charged again after the original amount of time you signed up for, regardless of which option you choose; there is NO one time payment option, which is what everyone wants and expects. AND they don't let you see that or when your subscription will renew again, so it's a surprise, and they don't give an easy way to cancel through the app.
And when they do charge you without you knowing ahead of time they REFUSE to give a refund! They care more about stealing people's money than they do about your satisfaction. If they actually cared they would give you a refund or a warning a week in advance through text and email that your subscription is about to renew so that you have the chance to cancel it, or AT THE VERY LEAST LET YOU SEE SOMEHOW WHEN IT WILL OR THAT IT WILL RENEW, instead of letting you know after the fact when they refuse to give you your money back. TRUST THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS!
If this had not been the case I would have GLADLY given the app four stars because I liked the content. Disappointed at their lack of integrity; they obviously want you to be tricked into automatic recurrent payments, otherwise they would be willing to give you a refund.
