Options

I would love it if you had two options when finding people to connect with, one for connecting with someone with the microphone on so we can talk while doing tasks and the other is the way it already is.

Some bugs

there's a bug preventing me from matching but after redownloading it, it's totally fine. I love the idea of text body doubling. True life saver

Great for Promoting Hyperfocus

I downloaded this app as well as another for body doubling. This app is wonderful for tasks that require deep focus, because the interaction between body doubles is minimal. This is great for getting in the “zone.” The other app has a lot of chatter and is better for motivating me to do mundane, low concentration tasks. Between the two of them. I feel like I have a way to boost productivity for boost for my professional tasks and my home tasks.

Please shorten the Q line

Would be great if the Q line didn’t take so long

Works amazing

This app has worked so well for me. It is honestly the only way I am getting through school right now. I really do love the how it’s all anonymous because we are just there to help each other, nothing else. Works great and love that there is no subscription.

Love it! But…

I absolutely loved this App. It is a great idea and concept for neurodivergent individuals. However, I noticed that there are sometimes bugs/glitches, and I’m not able to accept or receive any matches/sessions from other users.

Absolute Life Changer

This is the best body doubling app Ive ever used.
While body doubling works great, it works only when you’re already half successful 😂 Because you need a not-too-messy background, a desktop neatly set up, and yourself sitting in front of the desk.
Since this is a text-based app it gives you more flexibility on what to do during body doubling. I often use this app right after waking up to push myself on my morning routine and not get distracted. I also use this when Im shopping and walking around because I can easily spend next 3 hours just wondering around😂😂 This is my true lifesaver!

This app is great however

This app is great however I wish it had a break function like maybe a pomodoro break choice for both people I feel exhausted doing 30 minutes then doing another 30 minutes or more on bigger tasks

Love this

So grateful this exists. I’m having some issues with initiating doubling and with using alliances, but as long as someone else is initiating, it works. I’m so grateful.

Best App Ever!!

I tried this app for the first time and it is so easy and convenient for me to get my stuff done. It’s free (best part) and you connect to real people that can help hold you accountable for getting your tasks done. It was nice to be able to text each other to see how much progress has been made and to motivate each other. It has a 30 min timer and you can restart the timer as much as you want. This makes body doubling easy and accessible when my friends/family are not available. 10/10 recommend and thank you to the creator of this awesome app!!

So far, awesome! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I only had this app for a few days, but for someone who suffers from really bad executive dysfunction, this app adds everything i wanted. I am able to log in whenever & study with like minded people, without the pressure to show my face (like other body doubling apps).
My only complain would be the lack of accountability system, since the app doesn’t pressure you to use it. If there was some kind of calendar with time sets you had to abide by, i think this app would be even more better.
Keep up the good work!!!!!

And also, unlike what some reviews are claiming, this app does NOT use bots. All real people.

Way too easy to leave sessions

Hey, I love the idea of this app but it is far too easy to accidentally leave a session. I swiped to check if I could add a friend and without a dialogue prompt it just left the session. Terribly frustrating when you’ve been having good check-ins with a person but then you suddenly ghost them.
Also one small thing, when it says “Waiting to Confirm,” I waited to confirm the partner but it wasn’t clear that you need to tap on it before time runs out? Perhaps change the wording to “Tap to confirm partner”

Great idea

Great idea, I need to see this go farther!

Great Motivation!

Not only is this helping me focus on the task at hand but also helping motivate me to get started! 10/10 Everyone I’ve matched with has been so friendly!

Amazing for ADHD

This app is incredible for getting everyday things done! Helps me keep track of time and feel more motivated to report back that I succeeded at my goal(s) for the session. Very grateful for Think Divergent!

Extremely simple and helpful.

I just wish it had more users. Sometimes it takes 10 minutes to match.

SO HELPFUL!!!

I was skeptical because I usually like to body double with a camera on because I feel the pressure of someone watching me but this actually worked so well for me! The countdown timer was so helpful!!

Wait time

I don’t know if this is just me but it always take a long time to find a partner on this app, even when it says the wait time is only a minute. Other than that it really gets me motivated though.

Couldn’t sign in

I was really disappointed after downloading this app. I was very excited to try it out because it really seemed like something that could help me be more productive. But every time I tried to sign in it told me that my email was already being used. I tried three different emails and got this result each time. I doubt that all of my emails are being used, especially since this app doesn’t seem to be that well known just yet. I’m not sure if this is an issue on my end or some sort of bug but I hope it can be solved because I really was looking forward to giving this a try.

This app is most likely using bots

For each session I joined, they all said they were either cleaning their kitchen or making lunch. And then, after each session, they didn’t respond as if they already left. As a person with ADHD who needs body doubling to get work done, I’m disappointed at the insincerity of this app.
