Vary interesting app

I like it !

Response from developer

Appreciate it!

Great app

This helps me retain philosophy much better than passively reading it

Response from developer

Love to hear that!!

Awesome with a fixable issue.

I love the concept, and I love the debates I’ve had so far.

What I find annoying is that I’ve never been able to finish a debate when I feel I want to end it.

The “Finish Debate” button is right in front of everything and it’s soooo easy to miss click, that it happens with every single debate.

It doesn’t ask for a confirmation, and neither gives you a chance to re open the debate.

Fixing that would totally make the experience more enjoyable.
