Here's what our users and customers think

Thank you so much for developing such an amazing app!! I used it for my 4-year-old daughter's journey through surgery at Ipswich Hospital. She’s so anxious usually and this app was like a magic wand! She knew exactly what to expect and completely got into the role of the patient! Absolute god send Thank you"

Parent of child User review

"We used the Little Journey app to help a 9 year old girl recently who was very anxious and has autism. Her previous procedures have been a real challenge due to this. After the patient downloaded and used the app, it was a much less stressful situation, simply due to the immersive distraction she experienced from playing with the app."
