Thanks
Hi Jane
Thought I would say thanks for the inspiring TED talk and your fun game. I've tried all sorts of "self-improvement" packages, books etc in the pst and not found one that I can stick to...fingers crossed with this one, it's certainly captured my imagination :-)

More 'getting SuperBetter from' challenge options
I'm getting SuperBetter from a chronic disease. It's not chronic pain as such, at the moment for me personally it's mainly fatigue. It's also anxiety of course, because nobody knows how or when and if it will disable me. The bad guys are inside of me, so it's battling myself, but also battling the idea that it's my fault which of course it isn't. It has definitely also been depression, so that's something to keep an eye out for as well, and sometimes it can make you feel lonely or disconnected... It's so many things at the same time, it affects life in such a big way, that I find it hard to break it up and choose one of the options in the menu.
So my suggestion is to add 'chronic disease' as an option. I know I can't get rid of it, but I'm convinced that I can get SuperBetter from it. I'm SO ready to kick its butt ;)It probably seems like a detail, but naming the issue is important in terms of acceptance. I can think of a couple more things to add like learning disorders, autism, identity crises... or just the option 'other' and then the possibility to specify. (I read that the app has an 'other' option, but the website doesn't) - 'just' getting SB doesn't quite cover it either, because that sounds as if you don't really have a specific challenge at all (which may be the case for some, of course).
Side not: I love the concept of SB, I feel that you totally get what it's about, so thank you for sharing this with us!

Level descriptions (Secret Moves) are missing
I'm not sure which category to put this in; I hope this fits.
I went to look at my levels today and all the descriptors were mysteriously blank. Help!

Frequency of Quest Recurrence
I would like more options to customise the recurrence of quests. For example, it seems the maximum times a quest can recur is once per day, and the minimum once per week. However, there are some quests I'd like to do twice per day [or 14 times/week], others every other week [or .5 times/week] or once per month, etc.

SuperBetter as a basis for mental health treatment in teenagers
I am currently working to use the structure and foundation of SuperBetter in my job as a Skills Trainer for teenagers(13-18 yrs) in a mental health treatment facility. Unfortunately, since we do not have the resources, nor would it be safe to provide each client with a computer, all resources need to be transferable to paper.

App for android and windows phones
It would be absolutely amazing to be able to take my quest log with me on the go. Unfortunately, I have an Android phone, rather than an iPhone. It would be super awesome if there were also an Android app so that we might also reap the benefits of mobile SuperBetter.

Superbetter Mobile
Dear Madam or Sir,
Super better is an amazing program. However, the iPhone app does not work very well. I think that having a good mobile app is one of the most important things for Superbetter, because it allows people with busy schedules to play the game while on the go, and it allows people to check off accomplishments right when they do them, which is excellent for motivation. Please update your mobile application to be less buggy.
Thank you so much for your time,

Broken link
On this "science of" page scroll down to see that the link to the first of the three PDF files doesn't work. https://www.superbetter.com/heroes/314149/quests/12125334# Also, I'm finding the drop-down arrow doesn't work with Google Chrome for clicking on Quests from this page: https://www.superbetter.com/power_packs/15?mine=true

To-Do list in Ally section - can't ever achieve "Leave a Message or Like"
I do leave messages and likes for my ally, but they are never ticked off the to-do list (in the Ally section of the site). It doesn't matter if I follow the link or not.
It's demoralising.

A power pack for procrastination?
There are little bits in different packs regarding procrastination, but maybe they could be all in one? Plus a wee bit more?

user testing?
I am a new user of this service. I LOVE the concept. I have many people in my circle of family and friends who could benefit from this game.
But I just don't easily "get" it.
I found it through the ted talks video - which led me to the blog - which led me to the game. I signed up, I've tried it a bit. But it seems oblique and difficult to understand. too complex. too much at once. no reminders in my inbox... my allies don't "get" it very easily either.
We a handful of researchers/designers in Norway who mostly work with information design to communicate health research. We do a lot of user testing on our products. We would be willing to do some user testing - free of charge - on this product, if you are interested.

clearer user interface
hey, i'm a frontend developer, and i think the interface could be a lot more streamlined/clearer on how to get from one section of the site to the other.
it seems like header of the site is broken into three sections: superbetter, profile, and resilience. i think a simple design change to make each section more clear could really help.
another design choice that irked me was the power ups and secret lab icons were only available on the superbetter page, and disappeared as soon as you clicked them! so you couldn't quickly switch between pages.
overall, i think categorizing sections and making the sections more clear could make the site a lot more intuitive and easier to navigate (and get out of the way of players so they play more!)

Thank you for Superbetter!! :)
I love the support that Superbetter gives me. It's my habit (as much as possible) to close the day with a short summary on my Activity wall, and a quick round of chalking up my successes for the day. I love the feeling of having a place to share really really honestly, and that my ally is going to (eventually) find it and respond. I just wish it was easier for her to see when I post~ and easier for me to see where she commented! We both lose a little steam there... Thank you, Superbetter! I am grateful. Happy New Year.

Adding graphics
I think it would be cool if there were little graphics allowing you to outrun, chase and capture, or blow-up a bad guy when you battled it. Or a graphic that would jump up and down and do flips when you complete a power-up activity. It would be fun to choose what the bad guys would look like or to upload your own bad guy or power-up image.

Organizing
It would be awesome if we had the option of moving our quests, power ups, and bad guys up and down the list as we pleased. Or at least be able to group each task by each different creator.

Crying
Crying can be a huge part of one's emotional life. A quest that helps to understand crying or even a badguy/power up would be helpful.
