“What Parents and Carers Need to Know about NGL”

Not Gonna Lie (NGL) is a  ‘bolt-on’ app which is designed to work alongside ‘host’ platforms, Instagram and Twitter. The purpose of the app is to invite user’s friends and followers to ask them questions anonymously.

This guide highlights a number of potential risks including oversharing, cyber-bullying and potentially costly subscription fees.
