needs an update!
I was loving using this app til i accidentally opened it when I was skiing with no service. The app kicked me out and when i went back on it said i had to make an account?? There should be a log in feature because now im stuck as I cant make a new account on my email because it’s obviously taken by my last account

Understanding the languages is cool, but the functions don’t work well
It was fun to learn the languages and chat with my husband about what each of us were, but there is not way to complete any goals…. Can’t figure it out, sadly.
Sharing goals
Lovely app with a great idea, although would love and use the app more if I could share my goals with my partner
Non-inclusive
I just installed the app and one of the first things I noticed is that the entire app is constructed around the male/female gender binary. All of the wording in the questions uses “his/her” while ignoring the fact that replacing that with “they” is both more inclusive and grammatically correct. Upon signup, the only gender option outside of male and female is “Perfer not to answer”, thus excluding and invalidating nonbinary people. I would absolutely prefer to provide my accurate gender identity, but this app requires that I either misgender myself or silence my nonbinary identity. While I do think that the app is extremely useful and an overall great concept, the developers need to take into account that cisgender people are not the only ones who use their app and do better to accommodate ALL of their users.

Fantastic idea- some kinks to work out.
I love so much about this app! Two things that would really improve its usability are-
1. The reminders don’t often show up. It seems almost random that I get a reminder in my phone notifications. I have it set to do all of the notification things I can- persistent banner, Notification Center, etc- but it rarely shows up. I have to be mindful to go into the app to use it. It would also be great if it notified when your spouse requested an update or sent a message.
2. There is a limit on the number of messages it stores but I think I’m understanding the Nudges option better now that I figured out how to use the arrow- it’s not so much for messaging as it is for sending specific suggestions on how to speak your love language.

Great app! Would be even better if there could be a parent option too.
My husband and I love this app. It’s given us a clearer view of how we can best be connecting and demonstrating love to each other.
I’m finding myself with a bit of a conundrum though. I have a special needs son who has taken the love nudge test and wants to connect with me and my husband but we can’t do that and remain connected to each other. Would be great to either have a family option or another app that could incorporate kids!

Practical, effective tool for marriage
For anyone who knows anything about the 5 love languages, this is such a practical, effective resource to use to apply them in your everyday life. As I’m sure many women can relate, a lot of times I expect my husband to know what I need it how I’m feeling without me telling him, but when he’s not intuitive to that and doesn’t act or do what I’m expecting, I’m left disappointed over something I never expressed a need for. I admit it’s confusing and makes things frustrating but often I’m too prideful to admit what I need because I don’t want to appear needY A tool like this allows him (and vice versa) to have an idea of how I need to be loved, how much I’m feeling loved at the moment, and practical ways to apply it along with goals to reach. If you don’t speak or have the same love language as your partner, use this. Highly effective, and is an everyday part of our marriage.
Side note: when using the love tank feature, don’t take it personally if the other person’s meter goes down. It’s not a personal attack on you, it’s not a passive aggressive note from your spouse (or at least don’t use it that way), it’s simply a way to gauge where they’re at in feeling loved. Let it be an objective way to have insight on them and you. It can really be a great thing...don’t get hurt if it goes down. Just take it as a fun prod to like inwardly and say “How can I make it go back up or even to 100? How can I fill their love tank?”

Great! Needs some minor changes
I love this app! I’ve only had it for a few days but I can already tell it’s helping my relationship! It makes showing your partner love — intentional. The only thing I think would be better is if when you update your love tank %, and add a note, your partner can see the note so that they know what caused the change on your end. I would love that feature because if my tank goes from 60 - 95 , I want to add a note saying “I love the quality time we spent together! That made me feel great!” & then they know what makes me feel loved.

Question
Is there any way to access the notes that my partner leaves when he updates his love tank? We both leave each other notes to explain why our love tank is at a certain level but we just realized that neither of us has been receiving these notes lol, i cant even see my own notes to my knowledge. So is there any way to view each others notes?

Nice concept but...
I was hoping this would have helped me to select activities under each love category then automatically push those results to my spouse. If that feature could be added to this then I think that’ll gain 2 more stars. The fifth star will be the ability to give brownie points based on what was done As a way to provide feedback and verify how well we have been doing in each category. I do a lot of couples counseling and many are looking for something like what I mentioned in an app format to help work out their relational disconnect in a positive and encouraging way.
