## What is Improv Suggestifier?

Improv Suggestifier is a tool designed for advanced improv practice.  It gives you random suggestions in your choice of 10 different categories:

• Simple Word
• Character
• Location
• Emotion
• Object
• Genre
• Body Part
• Interview Question
• Male Name
• Female Name

For best results, I recommend using the suggestions in this app with the solo improv exercises from Chapter 11 of Mick Napier's book "Improvise: scene from the inside out".

### 5/5 — Update !

*2017-11-22*

Please update to iOS 11! :) love the app

### 5/5 — Please update!

*2017-09-22, version 2.7*

I can’t get the app to open with the latest iOS update

### 4/5 — Super useful

*2016-01-17, version 2.7*

It's simple and straightforward. I hope they can add other functions but it's very good for practices for the time being.

### 5/5 — It is an app

*2015-11-08, version 2.7*

When I tapped the "get" button in the Apple Application Store, I expected the application to download onto my phone. My expectations were met.

### 4/5 — Fantastic improv tool!

*2015-10-06, version 2.7*

This thing is great when you're practicing with your team and you need a suggestion but have no coach or audience to give you one. I also use it by myself to work on musical improv or to come up with characters. The UI could be a bit better, but hey, it's awesome nonetheless. Thank you for making it!

### 4/5 — Great little widget for improv

*2014-10-17, version 2.7*

This is a great little app for improvisers.

It certainly has some minor limitations, but if you're an improviser you should just roll with it.

I would love to see the devs add a setting for the user to see and edit the word lists, but this is just great little tool as is.

### 1/5 — Not good

*2014-09-10, version 2.7*

Not good if you are trying to practice improv

### 5/5 — Great App

*2013-04-07, version 2.6*

Does exactly what it says!  

Free, reliable, and simple.  It has a timer (you can adjust the length before it moves on the the next word) as well as categories you can choose from.

### 5/5 — Word Up (updated review)

*2010-11-13, version 0*

Simple yet effective. The simple black background & white text make for an efficient interface. I use this during improv practice and to prompt myself in solo improv exercises. It's straight forward in what it does. Tap the screen or shake your handset and you get a new suggestion.  Tap the "i" button at the bottom and you can now select specific categories.

All in all, a worthy addition to any improviser's collection of improv apps.

### 1/5 — Not much of an improv app!

*2010-08-25, version 0*

All this does is generate random words. I can hardly imagine what this is useful for. In improv we're usually looking for something more specific: relationship, location, profession... I can only see this using this app maybe for one or two shortform games (ie: improv fill in the blank), and even that's a stretch if you have more than 2 people in the room (2 on stage, one shouting out random words when cued). Waste of a buck.
