TimeToTest
Because telling someone matters, even when it’s hard.
TimeToTest lets you anonymously notify recent partners after an STI diagnosis, so they can get tested. No accounts. No names. Your identity is never revealed.
A careful flow for a difficult message.
Each step is deliberately low-friction, private, and focused on helping someone get tested. It takes under a minute.
Select diagnosis.
Choose the infection you’ve tested positive for. It shapes in-app guidance, and is never named in the SMS.
Add partner numbers.
No names. No accounts. Just the numbers of people you have a reason to notify.
Send anonymously.
A fixed, caring message goes out with a link to NHS testing. You stay anonymous throughout.
The problem we’re solving.
The hardest part of a diagnosis is often the conversation that should follow. Anonymity removes the friction that stops people from notifying partners at all.

Built so people can act without exposure.
The service exists because anonymity can make partner notification possible when a direct conversation feels impossible.
No accounts
Open the app and send. There’s nothing to sign up for and nothing to log in to.
Numbers discarded
Phone numbers are not retained by TimeToTest after the message is dispatched.
Anonymous SMS
Recipients never see who sent the message. Your name and number stay private.
NHS-aligned
Every message links to the NHS sexual health clinic finder so help is one tap away.
