An anonymous voting app only works if it is kind by design: positive prompts, strong moderation, and real protections for minors.

**TL;DR.** A Gas-style app is anonymous, positive peer voting: a poll card with four name options, a flames inbox of compliments received, and a school-based onboarding. Build the UI from a free VP0 design with Cursor or Claude Code, but the product is the safety: positive-only prompts, moderation, report and block, age gating, and strict privacy for minors. Anonymous must never mean unsafe.

Want a free Gas-style anonymous voting app UI template to build from? You can do it without paid source code. The short answer: build a poll card with name options, a flames inbox of compliments received, and a school-based onboarding from a free VP0 design, but treat the safety layer as the real product. VP0 is the free iOS design library for AI builders: pick a design, copy its link, and have Cursor or Claude Code rebuild it in SwiftUI or React Native. The audience is huge and young, with around [95%](https://www.pewresearch.org/) of US teens owning a smartphone, which is exactly why the guardrails matter so much. Learn the pattern; never copy a brand's name or assets.

## Who this is for

This is for makers building a positive, anonymous social app, especially one used by teens, who want the voting pattern and, more importantly, the safety architecture that keeps it kind.

## The screens, and why safety is the product

The core loop is simple and addictive in a good way. A poll card shows a positive prompt, "Most likely to brighten your day," with four classmate names; the user taps one to vote. A flames or inbox screen shows the compliments they have received, anonymous but framed warmly. Onboarding ties the user to a school or grade so polls feel relevant. That loop is easy to build; the hard and essential part is making anonymity safe. Anonymous voting can curdle into bullying instantly if you let it, so the prompts must be positive-only and curated, never free text. Add moderation, report, and block, gate the app by age, and design for the reality that minors will use it, which brings real obligations around privacy and consent. Never reveal precise identity or location, and keep data minimal. Apple's [App Store Review Guidelines](https://developer.apple.com/app-store/review/guidelines/) on user-generated content and apps for kids set hard requirements here, and Apple's [Human Interface Guidelines](https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/) on designing for younger users reinforce a calm, non-manipulative tone.

## Anonymous voting app building blocks

| Part | Job | Safety rule |
|---|---|---|
| Poll card | Drive the loop | Positive-only, curated prompts |
| Vote flow | Cast a vote | No free-text, no targeting |
| Inbox | Receive compliments | Warm framing, never expose voter |
| Onboarding | Set the school context | Age gate, minimal data |
| Moderation | Keep it kind | Report, block, human review |

## Build it free with VP0

Pick the poll card and inbox designs from VP0, copy the links, and rebuild them with your AI builder. A copy-and-paste prompt:

> Build a positive anonymous voting app from this VP0 design: [paste VP0 link]. Include a poll card with a curated positive prompt and four name options, a flames inbox of compliments received, and a school-based onboarding. Use SwiftUI. Use positive-only prompts with no free text, and add report, block, age gating, and moderation from the start.

## Build the safety layer first

The temptation is to ship the fun loop and add safety later, but with an anonymous app used by young people, that order is dangerous. Decide the prompt library first, and make every prompt a compliment that cannot be turned into an attack. Wire report and block before launch, not after the first incident. Gate by age honestly and minimize the data you collect from minors. Treat moderation as a staffed function, not a checkbox. An anonymous app that is genuinely kind by design is both the responsible choice and, in practice, the one that survives review and keeps its users.

## Common mistakes

The first mistake is open-ended or free-text prompts that enable bullying. The second is launching with no moderation, report, or block. The third is weak age gating on an app aimed at teens. The fourth is leaking identity or precise location. The fifth is copying a brand's name and assets instead of learning the pattern.

## Key takeaways

- A Gas-style app is a positive poll card, a compliments inbox, and school context.
- Build the UI free from a VP0 design with Cursor or Claude Code.
- The safety layer is the product: positive-only prompts, moderation, report, block.
- Gate by age and protect the privacy of minors strictly.
- Anonymous must never mean unsafe; learn the pattern, never copy a brand.
