Developers, Please read this.

I saw the post about new implementations on teams and a promise for reward if participating in a huge brainstorming regarding new features… I kindly beg for a 🛑 “stop and think first” from the developers. I know the passion might be in bringing on new ideas, being creative and create new cool, great amazing features. But - this is supposed to be an app helping create stability and routine for adhders. Solely focusing on New new new new won’t provide that. I don’t want more development on new features at this moment… I want improvement on old but still very much bugging features… For example, after finishing a course it’s often not registered as completed, there’s been for me a minus -15% and it doesn’t get fixed even by doing the story or even whole course again. I have had to switch topic and get over the fact that I don’t get rewarded for finishing the course. Another thing, dates/days in the app have been wrong and after reaching 99 days streak it was stuck on 99 although I kept on streaking more days. It’s like hey wow, I won!! but then your score is not even on the result board. Anticlimax. That’s one of my worst enemies when it comes to staying motivated. Not getting my progress acknowledged or rewarded as promised. Worst of all… I loved the playfulness of reaching new levels and getting rewarded with small but cute options for my own user. But the more I advanced my score started going on a minus (just as the finished courses)… I reached 129 days streak, finished stories, was active, but never even got above level 30, still on a huge minus and haven’t been rewarded in ages. Several months without even a new color option… New for me doesn’t have to be a completely new app, just give me a new color option and my brain will think “oh, this is new, fresh and cool”. For me, the buggs and undelivered promises is way too disruptive to the purpose of the app. It’s supposed to gamify your routine/progress etc and you get rewarded so you feel motivated to continue. If all the development focus goes to teams and the social media aspects, there’s a risk that the app will become a risk of doom-scrolling, chatting etc but not motivating the users to advance in their personal growth to manage their adhd. The mission should be rescue the foundation of the app and fix the buggs so that new cool implementations later on will be standing on a solid ground and not wiggling on crutches. I love a lot of the work you have done and in general the app is amazing. I love the idea of what this app can be truly and can do for people. My hopes are so high, but stability needs to number 1 priority. Thank you for taking your time to read this 💛
