人前の自分とひとりの自分がずいぶん違う、と感じたことはありませんか? Proffulは、毎晩3つの質問に選んで答えるだけで、自分の説明書ができていく自己分析アプリです。 性格診断のように、タイプ名を出して終わりにはしません。答えるたびに「自分のペースでやりたい」「少ない人数でじっくり話すほうが楽」のような項目が、説明書に1つずつ増えていきます。どの項目も、もとになった回答をすべて見返せます。 いくつかの質問は「人といるとき」と「ひとりのとき」の2回聞きます。疲れているとき、人前ではいつも通りにふるまうのに、ひとりだと誰にも会いたくない。そういう違いが「人前では疲れを見せない」という項目になって残ります。 質問は毎晩21時に届きます。今日の気分を選んで、3問に答えたら終わりです。かかるのは1分ほどで、文章を書く必要はありません。通知を長押しすれば、アプリを開かずに1問目に答えられます。届く時刻は設定で変えられます。 答え終わったあとは、その日、人前でどうだったかも残せます。「自然体だった」「少し合わせた」「無理をした」「人と会っていない」から選び、場所と、したことと、本当はどうしたかったかを選んでいくと、「友達の前で、少し合わせた。合わせて笑った。本当は、一人になりたかった。」という1文になります。続けていると、自然体でいられる相手と、合わせることが多い相手がわかってきます。 友達から見た自分も、説明書に入れられます。LINEでリンクを送ると、友達はアプリを入れずに5問に答えられます。自分では「断る」と答えたのに、友達4人は「断れずに引き受ける」と答えていた、というような違いが並んで見えます。友達の回答を見られるのは、頼んだ本人だけです。毎晩の回答や記録も、自分にしか見えません。 日曜の夜には「今週のまとめ」が届きます。7日分の気分、自然体でいられた日がいちばん多かった相手、人前とひとりで答えが変わった質問、説明書で変わったところが1枚にまとまります。 始めるときは、アカウントを作る前に12問に答えられます。答え終わると、説明書の最初の3項目が見られます。 質問は全部で180問あり、8週間ほどは同じ質問が出ません。説明書と今週のまとめは、画像にして保存したり、SNSに載せたりできます。 Proffulは無料で使えます。
