About

MapSelf

Read full description

Some days you mean to sit down and write about yourself. You rarely do. MapSelf is the other version of that. Short sets of questions, one at a time, and a reflection written back to you. It is built for adults who want to pay attention to themselves without keeping a journal — and for the stretches of life where something is quietly shifting. A job. A relationship. A direction you are no longer sure about. HOW IT WORKS You pick a set. A handful of questions, one per screen, multiple choice. No blank page, no typing, no streak to protect. Your answers are scored across 15 dimensions in 4 groups — being present, setting boundaries, deep focus, guilt-free rest, and eleven more. Then a guide writes you a reflection on what you chose: a short piece of prose about the pattern in your answers, and up to three things you might try. THE NUMBERS ARE NOT THE AI'S Your scores are arithmetic. Every option carries a fixed weight, and your dimension scores come from those weights alone. The AI writes the prose and never touches the numbers. Answer the same way twice and you get the same score twice. YOUR MIND MAP Each set updates the dimensions it touches. Together they build a radar across all 15, with a trend line showing how it moves over time. Nothing here is a verdict. A low score is an earlier stage, not a failure, and no dimension has a bad end. FOUR GUIDES, ONE SET OF ANSWERS Flow reads the emotional layer. Nova looks for strengths not yet fully expressed. Spark stays on habits and follow-through. Edge maps the roles and constraints you are working inside. Same answers, four different readings. You can ask a second guide about a set you have already finished. SUBSCRIPTION AND CREDITS MapSelf is free to download. Browsing sets, reading what each one covers, and your profile cost nothing. Completing a set and receiving a reflection requires a subscription and credits. Subscriptions are available weekly, monthly and yearly, each including a number of credits per period. While your subscription is active you can also buy extra credit packs. Prices are shown in the app before any purchase. New subscribers get a 7-day free trial that includes 3 credits. It converts to a paid subscription unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the trial ends. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. You can manage or cancel yours in your Apple Account settings. YOUR ANSWERS STAY YOURS There is no feed and no profile for anyone to browse. Nothing leaves the app unless you choose to share it. You can delete your account from inside the app. Deletion completes after 30 days, and you can change your mind during that time. WHAT MAPSELF IS NOT It is not a personality test and will not sort you into a type. It is not a medical, diagnostic or therapeutic product, and nothing it writes is clinical advice. It is for adults 18 and over. Terms of Service: https://mapself.app/terms Privacy Policy: https://mapself.app/privacy
