1. I would like to have an option to lose resilience points whenever I lose battles against bad guys

   It feels wrong to win resilience points after losing battles and it makes me more likely to fail again so I wish I could lose points somehow in order to make it more discouraging, this is the only issue I have with the app and it makes me less motivated to keep using it.

2. Fix the issue with displaying a two-digit number on The Battery

   (I posted this issue earlier today, mistakenly explaining it as the counter going zero at US morning time, but that zeroing thing has already happened today, at X hours 37 minutes, as soon as I reported a completed action, so it definitely was NOT a time zone mismatch issue).

   A few days ago, on the right from my shortest resilience stripe (physical) in my Battery, a number started to be shown. From what I understand, it's the number of my completed physical-resilience activities on that day.

   But the problem is, when the number goes above 9, only the last digit of that number is shown, i.e. "0" for 10, "1" for "11" and so on.

3. (Part 2) Fix the bug with resilience scores: it's impossible to keep The Battery balanced

   1. Current state of affairs:

   POWER-UPs:
   +1 for whatever it was +1 emotional resilience

   QUESTS:
   +1 for whatever it was +2 mental resilience

   Bad Guys:
   winning:
   +1 for whatever it was +1 mental resilience
   failing:
   +1 mental resilience

   Future Boost completed:
   +1 mental resilience

   Logging In:
   +3 mental resilience in total per day

   2. The Result:

   Mental resilience is always the longest on The Battery, no matter what.
   Physical and social resilience are always the shortest.

   3. The Problem with that

   Given that The Battery is in the top right corner, i.e., in terms of user experience, is a very noticeable thing on the page, it's impossible NOT to look at it and NOT to get the wrong evaluation of your current situation and NOT to get stressed out that you are not using SuperBetter properly or/and that your physical resilience is truly weak.
   Visiting SuperBetter site many times a day to report completed stuff, and being shown a messed up Battery balance is no fun.

   4. Suggested Solutions for balancing The Battery

   1. For those who've used SuperBetter long enough to get a largely imbalanced Battery because of the resilience score issues, a manual workaround:

   The workaround I've found for myself for now is to set all quests, power-ups, bad guys as Physical, but change icon images of those items to what they actually are (emotional, mental), so that to remind myself visually why I need to do them.

   1. A simple workaround you (SuperBetter team) can implement, the one that would massively improve The Battery' balance:

   • For physical AND social Power-Ups, increase the core score for completed power ups. E.g., for physical: +2 physical +1 emotional. instead of the current +1 physical +1 emotional.
   • For physical AND social Bad Guys, increase the core score for the bad guys battles won. E.g., for physical: +2 physical +1 mental. instead of the current +1 physical +1 mental.
   • For emotional power-ups AND mental bad guys, Add +1 physical. It makes sense. Negative emotions affect one's physical health negatively (lower immunity, increased inflammation, more likely to get into physical accidents because of being distracted by emotions, more likely to eat unhealthy - eatign away the emotional pain), so increased emotional resilience also increases physical resilience. And bad mental guys affect physical health as well, so battling them is good for physical health too.

   1. A workaround that you (SuperBetter team) can implement for heavy users, i.e. the ones who don't just come for one power pack and go away forever:

   Allow to disable The Battery.
   The total score in the top right corner is still needed, it is motivating, but seeing the messed up Battery balance is no fun.

   1. Current state of affairs:

   POWER-UPs:
   +1 for whatever it was +1 emotional resilience

   QUESTS:
   +1 for whatever it was +2 mental resilience

   Bad Guys:
   winning:
   +1 for whatever it was +1 mental resilience
   failing:
   +1 mental resilience

   Future Boost completed:
   +1 mental resilience

   Logging In:
   +3 mental resilience in total per day

   2. The Result:

   Mental resilience is always the longest on The Battery, no matter what.
   Physical and social resilience are always the shortest.

4. Option to wipe the progressbars clean

   I would like the option to reset the bars to zero with a button. If I could do that after each epic win the resiloencebar would not be so much larger. After two years use of the app I don't see any progress on the physical-bar, my newest project, since the resiloencebar is 400 and physical is 80. If I could start again from zero with a new epic win in sight it would feel better.

   It is after long use that it really starts to mess things up.

5. Creating power-ups should offer an option to choose more one resilience point catagory

   When creating your own power-up, you should be able to put it under multiple catagories. For example, as a musician, writing a song effects my emotional well-being as well as my logical well-being.

6. More agressive decay of current resilience.

   Currently, the decay of current resilience due to inactivity is unnoticeable. I have seen other users complain that this a disincentive to play the game, and I agree. I understand that part of the mission statement of the game is positive reinforcement, but having a small carrot/stick in the form of maybe, 10 lost resilience points per day if you do nothing on the site is a rather small stick. This decay can go down or become non-existent with increased activity.

7. Mental resilience much higher than the rest

   Because of the way mental resilience points are allocated for quests, my mental resilience points are much higher than the rest. This is a problem because, firstly, I feel I can never make my physical resilience improve (relatively) if I use quests instead of power-ups. On the chart, physical resilience will always look small if I use quests. It's rather demoralizing. Secondly, it makes me not want to do things that increase my mental resilience even further!

   My suggestion is that after we reach a certain level (say Level 5), we are allowed to decide how we allocate the resilience points for our own quests, at least. By that level, we would be familiar enough with the game that we would understand what we're doing. It gives us more ownership and makes us more excited because then the resilience points will correspond more with our idea of them.

8. Get Rid of the Current Points vs. Peak Points--so demoralizing

   Here I've achieved level 25 and keep slogging away despite not having the incentive of reaching new levels. If I get an achievement a month, it seems to be a miracle despite my logging in practically every day and working and working and working and now you're making me feel bad by having my current points lower than my peak points. It's so demoralizing to be working so hard and have your computer system say, "nope, that's not enough". I HATE it and it has the potential of driving me away from Superbetter. Seeing my points rise was the last incentive you left me now that I've maxed out the levels and achievements. It was your last incentive for me and now you've taken it away. Sincerely Superdiscouraged.

   under review  ·  AdminSuperBetter (CEO / Founder, SuperBetter) responded

   Hi Emily, I sincerely appreciate your feedback and am sorry to hear you’re feeling SuperDiscouraged because of this. Our intention was to help motivate players to reach their goals, but we understand that everyone is motivated differently. I do hope you’ll stick with SuperBetter and promise I’ll keep an ear out on player feedback around this change (and the whole site too!). ~Rose

9. Can you do some videos about the charts or graphs that you have on tracking. None of it makes any sense to me.

   I do not understand the tracking. So for me, superbetter has become nothing more than a to-do list. I accumulate points, and have access to charts that are more or less meaningless to me. Can you make some videos explaining all that stuff?
   Thanks.

11. Reduce the automatic resilience points given for quests.

    I have used SuperBetter quite alot after an illness. It worked very well. However, now my resilience points are somewhere about 400, and even if I am working on physical fitness at the moment I get resilience points all the time. It dwarfs the improvements of my physical at 80 points that I see now improvements even when I am working hard.

    How about nr and not graphs? I am turning all my quests with physical points into powerups, read it somewhere on the forum that that way I will not get automatic resilience. I understand that resilience is a bounus given when doing physical activities. But the way you present this information removes any joy in seeing your physical bar go up. You will never see any improvement.

    How about instead of showing how much you have at the moment, rather show how much you have gained in each bar each week and wipe it clean every sunday. You would still see improvements and resilience would not have time to dwarf all the other bars which happens after long use of SuperBetter. This way you would also not have to change the way you allocate points.

12. Reset Resilience

    It would be lovely if there was a way to reset your current resilience points. Especially in gamification, I love having a solid "Goal" (i.e. Peak Resilience) to reach for, and if these numbers never dip for a constant player, I feel as though I never achieve something attainable. Thank you!

15. Resilence meter not very fluid

    I always thought that the resilience bar was a way to keep people constantly involved and engaged...that eventually the meter would drop if you were inactive for too long, and maybe starting from your last set of gained resilience points. It almost feels like the bar's not even there. How the power packs are built, I can't evenly gain resilience, and I thought the resilience would be able to get me something or make me feel more encouraged...

    In addition to making the resilience drop...what if the resilience was able to get me perks of some kind? Maybe something as simple as 'gaining enough strength' to try harder power packs, or something more exotic like real-life perks at stores or websites that deal in self-help, health, spirituality and meditation...that sort of stuff, that can be made specific to particular kinds of resilience even.

17. Allowing secondary resillience choices

    Meaningful agency, right. I really misss being able to assign a primary AND and secondary resilience type when creating personalised quests, powerups and badguys.

    Have you considered allowing this?

    If not, what would be the argument against it?

20. App Could Use Resiliency Graph

    I love the little graph in the upper corner on the website. It really activates my gamer-brain :P

    However, in my phone app (which is what I use most), that information is a bit hidden. It would be cool if it was somehow in my homepage. It would be worth the space at the top.
