About

Intuition Check

Features
Read full description

Intuition Check is an app for testing and practicing intuition. You guess a value — a number, a playing card or a picture — reveal it, and see whether you were right. Over many rounds it compares your hit rate with what pure chance would give. It can tell you whether your results depart from chance. There are two modes. In passive intuition mode the value is chosen before you look, and you try to read it. In active intuition mode nothing is chosen until you reveal, and you try to will a value into being. Partner game: two devices; one person picks, the other guesses. You can export your statistics as a CSV text file, which spreadsheet apps such as Numbers can open. You can also give the file to your AI assistant and ask, for example: “In what circumstances does my intuition seem to work better or worse?” Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://uniconduct.com/apps/intuition_check/privacy
