User reviews

Go for it if you are using this decisional model

This is a very simple app that could be replaced with a spreadsheet, but remains more convenient on mobile.

Adequate but:

The basics are good but - after completing a decision I find I need a hand written comparison of the options and factor importance scores. Please include this in the Results page.

3 free factors, really?!?!?

I had the app for a whole 2 minutes and put in THREE factors and was limited to having to upgrade to add more. THREE? Really? I barely even got a taste of how effective the app is. This is poor business management skills LOL. At least give the users like 6 so they get a good sample so they can make an actual buying decision. This gave me NO desire to buy since why would I want to buy something I don’t even know is effective? Dumb

Good app with potential

This was the best of the choices among decision-making apps. It is the only one I found that allowed for weighted criteria.

For my test, I entered 33 choices with four weighted criteria. But when I went to delete one of the criteria I found that delete was not an option. Also, as I got closer to a decision, I wished I could delete some of the now obsolete choices.

Two suggestions: add a back button, and have the ability to delete entered choices/criteria.

This review is for the full paid app.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback Nonsequitorian. You can delete unwanted factors and options by swiping from right to left (this will reveal the delete button). Could you specify where the back button would be useful? Currently you can navigate using the top bar.

Decent, But Needs Work (Not Worth the Purchase Yet)

It's a pretty cool concept, and I'd love to be able to use it. However, it's pretty impractical right now, as I can only put down twelve factors without it cloning and linking the factors.

For example:
1. Q
2. W
3. E
...
11. A
12. S
13. Q
14. W

If I try to change the bottom ones, it also changes those on the top.

Additionally, every time that I open the app, it asks me to purchase the extra factors again. After I sign my Apple ID to buy it again, it says that I already have purchased it, and gives it to me for free.

Finally, whenever I type in one of the bars, it shoots the list of factors way up off of the screen. This makes it impossible to see what I'm typing, and difficult to choose another bar to type in.

Right now it's not worth the in-app purchase, but if those issues were fixed, it would be.

Thanks for the feedback and detailed information on the issues boB_ylliB. I believe all of these problems have now been resolved and the app should be working as expected. Appreciate you taking the time to review.
