Short description of Bad Guys/Power Ups on the list
It would be easier when you have plenty of power ups or bad guys on your list, if you didn't have to check every time what this particular feature is all about. I would like to read a short reminder after moving cursor on it for example, instead of browsing them again. Names for many of them are metaphorical and it's hard remember all of them especially when English isn't your native language:)

Translating SuperBetter
I recently watched your TED conference about SuperBetter (and the fact that it can actually grant you ten more years to live, which is amazing). I'm actually a sociology major in Santiago, Chile but besides studying and doing sociology-related research, I'm also a LGBTI activist.
I'm actually working in a small organization, mentored by a nurse, based on peer counseling (we've developed a methodology for anybody to use in order to help people within the LGBTI community (or as we like to call it, sexual diversity; this would also include, heterosexuality).
I'm actually pretty hyped about this game (which, by…

"Embark" on quests, then pass or fail
In a real game, it is possible to embark on a quest, be on it for a period of time, and then fail. I cannot help but think we should be allowed to flag that we've started quest and then be able to input whether we succeeded or failed at it.
For example. Perhaps I am a workaholic and have a quest to get up and go eat something. I can't really push "I did this" until I've left. I want to interact with superbetter, to establish that I am currently on a mission to get off this chair in…

Allow edits to titles
I like the clever names and puns in the titles for power ups and bad guys, but I often forget what is required if they aren't descriptive (i.e. "Devilish Double D's). It's not a big deal to click through to the description, but without a memorable title it's harder to remember the goal when I'm not using SuperBetter. It would be helpful to be able to edit the default titles without changing the rewards or win conditions.

Better notification system for when an ally comments or likes a status
I find it hard to keep track of activities, whether someone comments or likes something that I do or if they completed a quest. It's confusing, I don't always get an email and when I receive one, It doesn't say under which activity the other person left a comment...
Is there a way to have a notification icon within the superbetter page where we can look at all new activity ?

Why $5?
When did you start charging? I tried to get the app for a patient of mine and suddenly instead of free it was 4.99! I know that's not a lot but it is for my clients, and it actually is a lot for an app. As a professional I'd be happy to donate if you can keep the app free.

I want to personalize my own reminders!
I have a ton of points and now want to reach the next level!! Can I unlock a way to personalize my daily reminders?? I want to list new accomplishments for the day, not just the stuff I've been working on not doing. Give me points for fill in the blank activities!!!

Different categories for epic wins (with example)
For instance, I have 2 medium/longer term goals that are not in the same category: 1) being confident going into final exams, and 2) achieve my weekly exercise target for 3 months.
In cases like this, I don't have to achieve one first to achieve another. Rather, I would like to pursue them at the same time, and pursuing one probably helps pursuing another (e.g. exercising helps with clearing my mind and improving efficiency).
Any feedback or reasoning why this wouldn't be a good idea is also appreciated.
Thank you for this awesome game!

Weight loss - superbody
Hi Jane... you have a fan here ever since I watched your TED talk. Bravo. I wish I had known about your game when I had depression.
The problem I'm takling at the moment is weight loss, and I've come across something in my readings that makes me think you can help. I hope you're intrigued. It's not a huge problem (forgive the pun) - I need to lose about 10kg. Problem is I can lose 5kg, and then I get distracted and put it on again.
I have been reading "Influencer" by Patterson and Grenny. It looks at what…

Medication
I would really love to have a medication-based quest -- "take your meds"; but daily, twice a day (configurable for each user). Right now all I can do is make a quest "take morning meds", "take evening meds"; I would love there to be a builtin setup for this that would dovetail more nicely with health and wellness packs.

Sort by Power Pack, prioritize Power Packs?
I am running a LOT of power packs at once (for variety -- if I can't meditate today, maybe I can do some other thing to make myself SuperBetter) … The downside is I have a crapton of quests, powerups, bad guys at a time. I would love to be able to have them sortable in a number of ways … by the powerpack they belong to, by what kind of resilience they will help me with, by the ones I care about the most (aka manual sorting)… Is this a thing that could happen?

Make it work more than 10% of the time.
It's a downer when you just completed a Quest(s) and can't sign in or post to SuperBetter. Kind of defeats the purpose of the program.

Wrong text format
When I add i.e. a bad guy, I use the intro button several times to have a cromprehensive information, lists, etc. But when it's done, that line jumps doesn't show up (they are only visible in the edit menu).

archetypes
I have not played the game, but I read Jane's TED talk on it and find the approach and her story wonderful. I'm a freelance screenwriter and instantly wondered if archetype characters such as described by Joseph Campbell or in Christopher Vogler's book "Mythic Structure" might make the game even more accessible worldwide as these characters and story points have been found to exist all over the world.

Problems with mobile app
I have a problem with the 'Bad guys'. Often when I tap the confirmation button I get a Error 500 response from server. The app counts up but the score does not.
