Poor English
App creator needs to proof read these questions. Many of the prompts have mixed tenses and poor grammar.
Response from developer
Thanks for the feedback! We’ve already reviewed all prompts and improved the grammar and consistency — the next version will include these fixes.
All’interno ci sono altri costi
Ho acquistato la versione a pagamento,mancano due domande, la 142 e la 144, inoltre dopo il risultato se vuoi le risposte (nel mio tipo erano presenti 3 risposte) le devi pagare 99 centesimi l’una…
Pessimo
Ho fatto la versione breve, arrivo alla fine e dice che devo completare un annuncio per avere il risultato… se si capisse che cosa vuol dire lo farei. Ma se ciò vuol dire che devo installare l’app del “shein” di turno, 0 stelle e ciao !
Vaya app!!
Que desarrollador más profesional!! me encanta gracias!!!
Inaccurate and badly written
The questions were very badly written as if by a non English speaker, they were also so polarised they could not have realistic answers. The result was also not accurate, imo.
Response from developer
We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the poorly written questions and the potential inaccuracy of the results. We are constantly working to improve our content and would appreciate any further information you could provide. Please feel free to share your suggestions and concerns with us at enneagram.test.app@gmail.com. We look forward to hearing from you and making the necessary improvements.
Me la compartieron y esta chula!
Me ha gustado lo sencilla que es la app y sus preguntas. aunque al ser 2 respuestas te haga elegir entre lo opuesto todo el rato esto después saca un resultado bastante acertado.

Questions aren’t correct
Impossible to answer because the questions aren’t written in proper English. Sometimes you can’t even understand there’s a question
Response from developer
We have listened to you, now the English tests are more human and understandable. It has taken us a few months of effort but here they are! We hope you like them =)
Nonsense questions
These questions made little sense. I quit after three questions.

Cannot recommend for two reasons
TL;DR summary: If the developers hire a NATIVE speaker of English to correct the unexpectedly bad translations, and if they remove the fiercely distracting ads on the paid version, then they’ll have a really interesting, well-designed app here. Until then, though, don’t bother.
——————————-
Even though the idea behind this app is excellent, I cannot recommend it for two distinct reasons. One concerns the English translations, and the other involves in-app advertisements on the paid version. Fortunately, both issues can be corrected.
Let’s begin with the latter, the simpler of the two problems. Why, exactly, am I being distracted with scrolling ads on an app that I have paid for? Please remove them. On the unpaid version, of course, ads are both justified and expected.
Now then, let’s discuss the former - and more troublesome - of the app’s two issues. I do hope that I will not sound unkind to the developers, who have surely spent a lot of time and effort on this very promising app.
The English version is so poorly translated that, sometimes (by no means always), I simply do not fully understand it.
Because it will prove quite relevant to my critique, please humor me here by allowing me to note the following three points. First, English is my native language. Second , I am a PhD candidate in linguistics. Lastly, I have well over ten years’ experience teaching English as a foreign language. I mean only to underscore that fact that I am VERY familiar with non-native English. And if I have problems understanding this app’s English, then that is a big problem indeed. I’m very sorry to sound rather arrogant here, but when it’s true, it’s just true.
Moreover, in order to discuss personality traits anywhere, including in the Enneagram, subtle nuances of meaning are necessary. These nuances are not interpretable in this app; there are also many other flagrant, confusing English mistakes, too. The text looks to have been machine translated. Even if not, it has clearly been written or edited by, I’m very sorry to say, someone who believes his or her English level to be substantially higher than is demonstrated on this app.
After the writer improves his or her nonetheless solid, but definitely still developing base in English, it will still always be necessary to have a NATIVE speaker of English to review it, or, or for that matter, anything else publicly available. I cannot emphasize enough how key it is to have a native speaker review it. Not someone who speaks it very well, not someone who has some certificate or other showing ability in English, not a professional teacher if English who did not grow up speaking it at home, and not someone with a degree in English literature. Only a native speaker will gave intuitions about linguistic subtleties. I have worked over the years alongside probably hundreds of teachers who speak English fluently. Never - and I do mean NEVER - has any one ever spoken or written flawlessly. Unless someone grew up as a child in an English-speaking country, they are not a native speaker. Period. And if they are not native speakers, the results will be tragic.

Don't waste your money
I purchased the long enneagram test. It is not the proper questions therefore should not use the term enneagram. The questions are also poorly written and do not make sense in English. The app has glitches and often you cannot scroll up and see the entire question at the top, likewise you cannot scroll down to see the entire next option at the bottom of the screen.

Language Problem
Taking this Enneagram personality test is frustrating, due to the very poor application of the English language. I get the sense that the test questions were written in another language, because the English translations simply don’t make sense much of the time. Needless to say, this can adversely affect one’s ability to ascertain the questions and answer appropriately. I have taken Enneagram tests (full test) numerous times & usually get show the same Enneagram personality type. This test (long version) yielded altogether inaccurate results.

Test muy acertado
Una excelente herramienta para verificar qué eneatipo representa tu personalidad! Cuando me lo descargué pedí a algunas amigas que hicieran el test para comprobar nuestras dudas con sus eneatipos y fue 100% exacto!
Nos sorprendió muy gratamente
