Safe question check
Before you send a Q&A idea.
Use this check so a product question can help future users without exposing anyone's private writing.
A screen, button, invite state, reveal state, or support path did not make sense.
You want a general answer about privacy, waiting, family consent, notifications, or product limits.
A public page or setting needs clearer, simpler, more age-aware language.

Reviewed Q&A path
How a public Q&A idea is reviewed.
Public answers should help many users understand UYB without turning one person's private situation into content.
- 1Start as product feedback
A safe Q&A idea starts on the feedback page with general product confusion, not private journal text.
- 2Screen for private content
Ideas with answers, drafts, reveal text, invite links, direct contact details, secrets, or crisis details are rejected or routed away.
- 3Route to the right owner
Product questions can become public guidance. Privacy, safety, account, legal, or child-consent questions need the right review path first.
- 4Publish only reviewed product guidance
A public Q&A answer must be founder-reviewed, product-grounded, safe for kids and adults to read, and free of private user stories.
The review path does not create public comments, user-to-user advice, open submissions, or automated answers. It must never publish private journal answers, drafts, solo notes, reveal text, invite links, account secrets, or another person's writing.
Reviewed answers only.
This page is for product guidance, not public advice threads. UYB does not host comments, user-to-user counseling, or public posts about private conflict.
UYB is not therapy, diagnosis, legal advice, medical advice, crisis care, or emergency support.

The topic map links reviewed public answers only. It never asks for private journal answers, drafts, solo notes, reveal text, invite links, account secrets, or crisis details.
Is UYB a chat app?
No. UYB is built around private writing, locked reveals, and slower reflection. There is no public feed, random matching, or open comment thread.
Can parents use UYB to monitor a child?
No. UYB should not be used for secret monitoring or punishment. Family journals should be consent-based, clear, and appropriate for the child's age and safety needs.
Why does the reveal wait until both people answer?
The waiting lock keeps one person from reading without also writing. It helps both people bring a real side into the same question before the reveal opens.
What if the other person does not answer?
You can keep your answer private, adjust your draft, or use your solo space. UYB treats waiting as consent, not a failure.
Can UYB help with serious harm, abuse, or crisis situations?
No. UYB is not therapy, crisis care, legal advice, medical advice, diagnosis, or emergency support. If safety is at risk, use real-world help right away.
Does UYB use private journal text for marketing?
No. UYB should not use private journal answers in marketing emails or public content. Product updates and newsletters require separate consent.
Can users ask public questions or comment on other people's situations?
No. The safe Q&A model is founder-reviewed product guidance only. UYB should not host public advice threads about private family or relationship conflict.
Have a product question?
Send feedback without private journal text. Public Q&A topics should be reviewed before publishing.
