A "gr8" idea, but doesn't stop incoming "txts."

Is It Any Good?
Texting and driving are a dangerous combination - and DON'T TEXT ME deserves some measure of praise for attempting to address it. Notifying contacts that you're driving or working (or otherwise unavailable) is an easy process, but it overlooks a couple of major issues. While it's easy to ask friends not to ping you, it's ultimately their choice -- and if they do, you'll receive those texts without any interruption. Just as importantly, if you're frequently in and out of the car (or in class or meetings) and use this app regularly, friends may get frustrated with the frequency of the messages.

Did we miss something on diversity?
Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
