### 3/5 — Hi

*2026-05-04, version 2.1*

It’s good but it is kinda confusing until you get the hang of it but otherwise I like it

### 4/5 — Cooollll😎

*2026-03-15, version 2.1*

Me and my friends all did the test and it was totally awesome 👏 although me and one of my friends are apparently opposites 🤷‍♀️👁️👄👁️

### 4/5 — INFJ

*2025-12-17, version 2.1*

I thought the test was more efficient and it included clearer questions, however, there was no button to go back on my questions which was a bit annoying.

### 3/5 — Interesting

*2025-08-20, version 2.1*

I tried this test just for fun, and it wasn't that accurate, but I wasn't really expecting it to be. It said I'm sensitive , and I am anything but sensitive, and it said I like to be center of attention, absolutely not, and it said I would like a romantic partner, when really I would rather keep it casual, romance is so akward

### 4/5 — I like it

*2025-07-20, version 2.1*

It's free and it does what I expect. My only minor gripe so far is that they use some words mistakenly, including references to "diffusing" a bomb (it's "defusing") and chasing after something "illusive" and rare (it's "elusive"). It's like someone used a voice-to-text system to generate the content without checking it for misspellings after (or without recognizing the errors when they saw them). Other than that, my scant use hasn't turned up any other problems or inconsistencies.

### 2/5 — Needs no-ad option

*2025-04-24, version 2.1*

The app is ok, but the ads are too intrusive. I suggest a purchase option to eliminate ads.

### 5/5 — Testing your knowledge

*2025-03-21, version 2.1*

This is very to the point 😊🥰😎

### 3/5 — TYPOS, ERRORS AND LIMITED INFO

*2024-10-24, version 2.1*

Lots of typos, misspelled words, personality type errors and extremely limited explanations of each type. In their efforts to shorten and dumb down the MBTI, lots of things got overlooked. Seriously, someone with a better than average English education needs to proofread the text in this app. Also doublecheck the inaccuracies under each personality type. The test is too short for 100% accurate results, but the bones of the test are still in here. Devs might want to rethink their presentation of this slightly flawed temperament analysis so that impressionable students of psychology don’t get cheated into thinking they’re in the 2% of the population when they’re not. Pick up a copy of Please Understand Me and follow that blueprint to see how it’s actually done.

### 2/5 — Inaccurate

*2024-10-23, version 2.1*

The online tests seem to be more extensive and therefore more accurate. I got a different personality profile than I do with the website tests.

### 5/5 — Excellent App!

*2024-10-01, version 2.1*

This app does a great job of the breakdown for each personality type and letter explanation.

Highly recommend if you want to know more about this topic!

### 5/5 — Workplace efficiency

*2024-09-25, version 2.1*

This app is fantastic for helping me organise my teams into their best corresponding traits that align perfectly to balance their strengths and weaknesses, at the same time as give me a better understanding of their communication style.

### 5/5 — Inspiring and Informative

*2024-08-24, version 2.1*

Very insightful. I enjoy the layout and appreciate the research. It’s setup make me  wonder if it’s process is based in complex numbers.

### 5/5 — ❤️❤️❤️🥰❤️❤️❤️

### 5/5 — Wonderful, actually

*2024-06-24, version 2.1*

This app was delightful because it asked relatable questions, had super accurate results, and it really  has great details for your type. It shows your personality, hobbies, and even careers! There are many things you can enjoy.  Many things have been a great experience, and it even shows your opposite types and compliment types, etc.  Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!!!

### 5/5 — Good

*2024-06-18, version 2.1*

Very accurate

### 5/5 — Fun

*2024-05-07, version 2.1*

This is simply a fun little app!

### 5/5 — Would recommend

*2024-05-03, version 2.1*

I just got this game and I got ESFP and if you go to the just for fun I got team sports (which so happens to be what I like) and I got dancing. I do dance a lot. And if you get the general thing it tells you what is your strength and weaknesses. A lot of those happened to be VERY similar to me. Anyways it’s very cool very accurate and very well written. Whoever made this THANK YOU!😊🫶🏽

### 5/5 — Cool

*2024-04-03, version 2.1*

Love it

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Simplistic and useless

*2025-02-17, version 2.1*

The opening personality test is hilariously simplistic and easy to manipulate. It’s entirely binary and within the first few questions, it’s clear you’ve already been pigeonholed. Don’t waste your time or effort on this app—the developers certainly didn’t.

### 1/5 — Incorrect Type Info

*2025-01-27, version 2.1*

I'm an ISFJ but the general information given to me was on ISTJ, so that's not very helpful.

### 1/5 — Good thinking topics, too good 1/4 ratio but scared me

*2023-09-28, version 2.1*

If I wouldn’t have been so concerned about my choices …. The app is a lot to think about …. Feels like it is trying to consolidate a lot of living for me and that is the reason for the review of the left star being selected in thinking it was 1 star and thinking I would not want this to be instead of a lot more to get to study and, either way, this app gave a lot of which to get to ponder. It really is scaring me. But 1/4 ratio is just a review of how jostled I am in response.

### 1/5 — Version française ?

*2022-09-15, version 2.1*

Version française ?

### 1/5 — Review

*2022-07-09, version 2.1*

I don’t get this app it’s so shupid and I don’t get the short letters it did not explain the question right and it did not get my personality right

### 1/5 — Worst game ever

*2022-01-02, version 2.1*

The game only lets u do 1 test. It is rubbish

### 1/5 — Lol

*2021-09-12, version 2.1*

It types you in the wrong way

### 1/5 — Got my personality wrong

*2021-01-25, version 2.1*

It asks questions that are only black and white when in reality it can also be both or neither

### 1/5 — Very bland

*2020-12-21, version 2.1*

It’s a mediocre MBTI test with some very basic and poorly written content. You’re much better off taking any online Meyers Briggs test. Not sure why you’d need an app for this.

### 1/5 — more bookmarks

*2019-03-17, version 1.9*

this app is awesome if youre into myers briggs. i use it to better understand my friends a lot. i wish i could bookmark sections of the cognitive functions!!

### 5/5 — Surprisingly Accurate.

*2026-08-11, version 2.1*

It makes sense too.

### 5/5 — GIGGLES

*2026-06-25, version 2.1*

GIGGLY GOO GA

### 5/5 — SPOT ON!

*2026-05-17, version 2.1*

I stumbled across this app, which had been on my phone for quite some time one Saturday night at 11 PM. When I tell you, it was one of the most enjoyable, quick, quizzes that I’ve ever taken I’m telling the truth. I was skeptical at first, but it truly accurately describes me even down to the career that I’ve chosen. I highly recommend !

### 5/5 — Free

*2026-04-18, version 2.1*

Actually free

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2026-03-11, version 2.1*

Such an easy detailed test to find out more about yourself!

### 5/5 — Incredible app!

*2026-02-20, version 2.1*

I’ve been obsessed with my MBTI for a while, and this app was perfect for helping me understand myself better. 
It’s very accurate. Nearly every test I take tells me INTP (I am indeed an INTP) and this one also did. It broke down all sorts of things, and the categories are very useful. I also love seeing people with the same MBTI as me. Maybe the list could be updated? Or just include different people. James Maddison, Elon Musk, etc….
I love pretending I’m in my characters pov and taking the test and answering as they would to find out their MBTI. As a writer, it’s super useful.
The fun part under relationships is when it describes how to attract, that’s also very real and accurate. I also love being able to view the other MBTI’s.
My only suggestion is maybe allow the words to be a bit smaller? They’re so big!
Otherwise, great app!

### 5/5 — Letter Pairs are 100% accurate

*2026-01-12, version 2.1*

Easy to understand, helpful, accurate and many helpful information and detailes.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2025-10-20, version 2.1*

I love this app, very detailed and informative. I learned so much. I love that it is completely FREE because let's be real, nothing is free nowadays !!! Thanks Derek !!!

### 5/5 — Gyyy

### 5/5 — 👍👍

*2025-03-30, version 2.1*

Amazing how accurate this test is.  It is helping me and my Fiancé understanding ourselves.
