8 of 25I use the Creative Whack Pack for quite a few things . Problem solving instead of over thinking and stinkin thinkin. From just fun to serious creative thinking. I started with this app a long time ago when it was a disc 3 1/2”. I guess it was in the 90s. I recommend the app to everyone. Love it . Thank you !
I’ve been using the whackpack since I was fortunate enough to find an old deck of cards at a thrift store, that whack lead me to the other deck and eventually to this app. I couldn’t be happier with the quality and though provoking ideas it provides me daily. You can’t read the same whack twice! ;)
Presents effective methods for stimulating creativity and breaking out of mental loops; never ceases to impress.
The creative strategies continue to spark my thinking. It's easy to record my ideas and share with friends. I love this wise, fun, unorthodox, insightful tool. Great Wise Fool thinking! Thanks!
This “whack” forces you to make time to think creatively. I like that you can send yourself notes that can be ponder later and start the C Juice flowing daily. Definitely a great tool in my creative arsenal.
This is one of my favorite apps. I just hope they optimize it for iPhone X screen and keep the fonts a bit smaller in relative to what’s now. Other than that it’s a perfect companion
Really gets the creative juices flowing and expands the way I approach problems & issues!
I use it every morning. It has given me a new view of my challenges every day! It is a gift I never expected! Thanks to the author- a genius of common sense. T. Murphy
