Good

Simple and Effective!

Great app that gets you on the right track. Sometimes my emotions make it hard to communicate effectively. This app helps me sort it out and know what I’m feeling and what to say and ask for.

Response from developer

I am super happy our app helps you sort things out with your communication.

Interesting approach!

This app stepped inside my thought processes. To my surprise it was challenging. Multiple Choice tests are easy for me, however “True-False” ...not so much.

There are only two options for each of the ten questions, “Yes” or “No.” I kept wanting a qualifier, like a strength range, or even “Maybe.” Quite possibly this app may help me not only make decisions, but more importantly, show me why I struggle with decisions in the first place. I like understanding how I process decisions and learning to improve.

The coin drop sound is fun and gives a sense (or I should say ‘gives cents’) of a game.

Great concept

I really like how this app is flexible to the situation. Helps problem solve depending on what circumstances I need to use it. No need to worry if I should ask for something. Just open this app and after 10 quick questions I have a recommendation.

Nice little heuristic prompts you to look at a decision from many angles. Definitely worth the price.
