United StatesSolace is a free mobile application, currently region-locked to the USA, for transgender men, women, and individuals, as well as the parents and guardians of transgender children. Users are able to map out their transition, access credible information on how to accomplish their legal, medical, and social goals, stay informed about news that may impact their goals and rights, and track their progress.
With Solace, users can learn how to accomplish goals like updating the name and gender marker on their legal ID, coming out to friends and family, and learning what legal rights they may have (or not) in their state. For instance, if one of the user's goals is to update their legal documentation, Solace will show the steps for their state/territory, what documentation the user will need to provide, etc.
Solace also provides information on accessing gender-affirming medical services, signing up for Medicaid, and finding mental healthcare.
By providing the current information relevant to each specific goal and then allowing users to mark the task complete, Solace empowers our users to complete these tasks with confidence and see themselves moving forward through their transition in real time.
At any time, users can also browse Solace’s Discover page to see a full list of all the actions and goals (currently 1000+ in total) that Solace provides information for. If users discover something that they didn’t realize was possible for them before, they can add it to their road map at any time.
Solace is designed to allow transgender individuals to define transition on their own terms. Solace makes no suggestion as to what a ‘complete’ transition looks like, and instead is there to affirm the user and celebrate them each step of the way.
The application customizes the experience based on the user's pronouns (that can be fully editable), and state of residence to maximize the relevancy of the information and provide maximum affirmation.
Solace also provides users with ways to sequence their more complex goals that require multiple steps. Every goal is tracked against a progress bar, which can serve as a helpful reminder that you are making progress in your transition. And everyday, Solace will have a new welcome message that leverages the app’s Dynamic Language and Artificial Emotional Intelligence (AEQ).

Why only trans men and women? Not all trans people are in the gender binary (ex. Nonbinary, agender, etc.). Brand gears towards transgender folk, but only those who are a trans man or woman? Other than that, this app is alright. Goals should not be based on pronouns personally. Someone who's nonbinary can still use he or she pronouns. Other than that, really only the wording (as I first mentioned) this company advocates that bothers me, as someone who's gender queer and transmasculine.
Helped me realize I was trans in the first place by pointing out many things I dealt with that I didn't realize were signs. A useful tool if you're questioning. Many of the options are separated for transmasc and transfem, but they are not clearly labeled as one or the other. Support for non-binary and transneutral is extremely minimal and often absent (can select they/them and it will sometimes use it). Many medical options are not covered. USA only. Some info is negatively biased. No updates.
I don't think it's bad, however I do wish it felt a bit..less claustrophobic? I'm not sure how to describe it. also, don't like the fact that you can't just change your pronouns without changing everything about the app. thanks, xoxo
This app is invaluable to the lgbtqia+ community. Guids you to what information you need as well as where you can get help if the process is confusing. I was able to file to change my name and gender because of the help I got from this app and the people they work with. Thank you so much!
Nice living Nice living
Its really gender affirming and has helped me alot with being transfem
It's not an LGBT app. Don't call it that. It's an app for transgendered individuals and your app is misleading and insulting.
