NGL is an anonymous question-and-answer app where users share a link, friends submit messages (often anonymously), and responses appear on their story. The app uses automated content moderation but relies on a free-tier model that attracts senders seeking to avoid accountability.
NGL does not appear to offer robust parental controls or granular privacy settings. Your best protection is conversation: explain why anonymous apps amplify cruelty, set clear expectations about acceptable use, and agree to let you see responses periodically. If messages become abusive, screenshot and report to NGL support.
