It's truly appreciated as we keep improving the app. The three errors you mention have been fixed. In the future, folks will be able to store the assessment results for future reference. And as you mention, I'd like to add more about interaction styles. Dario N. Hi John,

In the future, folks will be able to store the assessment results for future reference. And as you mention, I’d like to add more about interaction styles.

While my main use of my new iPod Touch is for storing music from iTunes, I confess I specifically got the iPod Touch so I could use this app. I LOVE the app. I've already tried it out on some of my friends. Some understood the questions better than others, however; some language about one's preferences that's apparently meant to be universal actually confuses some people. Even I have had trouble with some questions. The app doesn't go quite as fully into interactive styles as I'd like (even though it touches upon even these), nor into all eight CPs for any one type. It also makes three errors (even in the current version, I believe) for the "Cutting Edge" (Tertiary) processes in three types (I sent you a note on that already). I hope that Dario can get that bug fixed soon! That said, I find it useful just to examine and meditate on how the different types approach the objective and subjective worlds. I look at some types and say, "Yes, so-and-so who I know well is very much like this and not like the possible alternatives." That's interesting by itself.
