Being able to message your allies/friends!
I'd love to private message my allies. This should have some sort of 'inbox' and a page to send (multiple!) people a personal message.

Idea for powerpack: Identity crisis
An important challenge that superbetter can help with is identity-searching people (such as people who are questioning religion or discovering their sexual identity). Quests can include stuff like searching information on the internet or going to certain places.

iPhone app not compatible with iPod Touch
I know it's called an iPhone app, but these apps are almost always compatible with iPod Touch. When I tried to download it, it said that the app required a camera. Why? Please make the app compatible for iPod Touch users. Thanks!
97 votesSorry about this — the app requires a camera because some of the quests require a camera. However, we agree it’s an unfortunate limitation, so we’re looking into ways to make that part optional in the future.

Custom Powerpacks for College Counseliing Units
How cool would it be for Counselors to guide students through their struggles as they complete discrete steps of the process!
This is somewhat similar to another idea that I had posted.
There should be a way to make Custom Powerpacks and a choice that students logging in from a particular university can load it up.
This way, instead of helping out students via conversations that motivate but do little in terms of feedback, a counselor can monitor the progress of a student.
Privacy issues might have to be dealt with here!

See the allies progress in the app
It would be nice to see the progress of your allies in the activity field in the app, not only on the computer

navigation not as intuitive as it could be
Been exploring the site. I can't figure out how i got to the secret lab page from the main page!
71 votesThanks for letting us know! The link to your secret lab is one of the icons under the SuperBetter logo in the upper-left side of the screen (the other icon is Power Packs). Hope this helps, and we’ll look into possibly making this clearer.

Getting Out of Bed On Time Power Pack
Get out of bed and stay up right after the alarm goes off. Don't hit that snooze button even once! And really stay out of bed until nighttime!

Adjusting to Retirement Powerpack
I retired almost 2 years ago after working almost 40 years. There's lots of financial advice out there, but what about the challenges of discovering who you really are without a work identity, keeping active, fostering new social contacts (I had few outside of work), maintaining structure to your day (or not)....? The list is endless when you're blessed with a life of choice after decades of few.

Sharing/copying quests etc
it would be great if there were an easier way to "copy" someone's badguy, quest & power up to your own list :)

Provide graphs of my progress
Create an option to see a visual representation of progress with quests, bad guys and daily challenges. For example, graph daily ratings of symptoms, how much of a challenge bad guys were on each day, etc.

App for Allies!
I would love it if the app were also designed for allies so that I could give achievements, suggest questions, etc through my phone! If that feature is there, then tell me how to access it please? Thanks!

I was awarded the following badges long before I could have attained them. Others seem right.

More bloglike way to post
I'd love to see an option to post 'blogposts' onto my activity feed, for people to see (and perhaps an option to make a post private, so I can write in my 'diary' on superbetter or choose to share my thoughts). It's nice for quests as Fear vs Anxiety where you post thoughts and share it with your allies. The comment space is kind of small and doesn't invite for long, provocking (positive!) thoughts. We can also use a blogpost to tell about our day at the end of the day, tell in detail about what quest we did, etc.

Do Like the Monks Power Up Typo
Just wanted to let you know that the site recommends "mediation" when I think you mean "meditation."

Cut allies loose
I have a couple of allies who have never left me so much as a "like." If allies are no longer playing or aren't interacting with us, we should have a way to cut them loose.

Explanation and/or hyperlink related to Mindfulness power-up
Hello SuperBetter team(???):
First of all, I am a huge Jane McGonigal fan, and I just wrote a paper on SuperBetter for an Emerging Technology class in Grad School. Also - erm... I have recommended it to my therapist, but that is a different story.
As far as the mindfulness power-up: there is no explanation, so unless one is familiar with it, or is provided a link to an article about it, then its usefulness might not be utilized. Even I am unsure exactly what this power-up means: should I take a walk with a clear mind and try to…

Facebook should not have to open after already authorizing the app.
I noticed that Facebook attempts to do a first time authorization every time you open superbetter. This leads to me having to wait and take the "Okay" button every time I open the app. Perhaps there's a fix for this?

offline use?
Any plans to enable the iPhone app for off-line use? So that I can make notes, check off power-ups and quests, etc. off-line to be updated later once I'm connected again. Living in NYC, this would be EXTREMELY useful to be able to use in off-line mode while riding the subway.

Ability to add allies to reach out to who don't have to join the game directly
I'd really like to be able to list people as an ally and keep that separate from having them have to join the game. Like a REMINDER that "these are people I can reach out to" - partially because one of them is my mom who doesn't have email (and doesn't want to have email - I KNOW).
77 votesHah! I think we all have relatives like that :D It’s a totally legit point I’ll keep in mind as I design. Obviously for business purposes we like to get as many people into the game as possible, but there are always going to be those for whom the game just isn’t working/isn’t fun/isn’t what they want to engage with, and that doesn’t mean they couldn’t still be perfectly legit allies to someone the game DOES work for. Hm hm hm! Excellent point; thanks for bringing it up.

Check-In Reminder / History
It would be awesome if accepting a Check-In from an ally actually did something. Once accepted, it seems to just disappear into the ether. It would be great if there was a reminder, maybe on the ally page, right below the name of the ally who scheduled the check in.
In general, I'd love to have a history of suggestions... but I think I put that under another request ;P
