意志が弱いんじゃない。逃げ場が、あるだけだ。 Kusariは、毎日の英語学習を「鎖」で習慣に変えるアプリです。読む、話すの2ステップ、1日15分ほど。意志の力ではなく、設計で続けます。 コミットメント・デバイス(自分への約束を仕組みで守る装置)の研究をもとに設計しています。Yaleの研究者らが立ち上げたstickKなどで知られる手法です。Kusariは同大学と提携・監修関係にはありません。 料金は、続けた日数で決まります。 通常価格 月¥5,000(自動更新)。直近30日の達成日数によって、翌月のご請求が5段階で変わります。 ・24日以上 ¥0 ・18〜23日 ¥1,000 ・12〜17日 ¥2,500 ・6〜11日 ¥4,000 ・5日以下 ¥5,000(通常価格) 日数に比例して安くなるのではなく、上の5段階で決まります。 割引の適用には、更新日の前にアプリ内で申請の操作が必要です(Appleの仕様上、自動では適用できません)。アプリが更新前にお知らせします。 最初の7日間は、登録なしでお試しいただけます。8日目にご登録いただくと、そこから30日間の無料トライアル(初回のみ)が始まり、最初のご請求はその後です。 お試し期間7日分の記録は、ご登録後のアカウントには引き継がれません。 サブスクリプションは自動更新です。期間終了の24時間前までに、iPhoneの「設定」>ご自身のApple ID>サブスクリプションから解約できます。 今は三日坊主でも大丈夫です。続けられる自分に変わるための仕組みだけ、用意しました。
