What the App Offers

Emotional Expression – Using a grid of 28 emotions, you express how you are currently feeling.

Empathy Exercises – In short, playful exercises, both partners assess each other's feelings.

Guided 7-Day Quest – A guided study quest, spanning seven days, accompanies you through the study with dialogues, decisions, and exercises.
