Get Whacked!. Creative Whack Pack for the iphone is a fantastic digital extension of the original Creative Whack Pack! For those you who know this tool, the portability of it on your iphone means you can easily inspire your creative mind anywhere. If you're not familiar with it, and you're a creative professional, the anecdotal outside the box viewpoints, are fantastic at giving you new perspectives on your projects. Great for the muddled mind, and now portable too! (Oh and sssssh, keep this a secret, but it's also a fantastic bargain when compared to the best selling original! )

Excellent Customer Service. I donwloaded app 2 weeks ago had had a couple problems figuring it out. Like most men I never read the instrruction. I sent an email and with in a few hours, I received a call fom the creator of Creative Whack Pack and he explained the app completely and also sent me a quick video. I would recommend this app to everyone. Have a great day!

A Wonderful Creativity Stimulant. Every morning I check the "Whack of the Day" and that gives me something different to think about. A couple of times I've had some work issues, and so I used the creative workshops and I found it helped give me a fresh perspective. I did the "oracle" with a friend and that gave us a stuff to talk about. Anyway, a nice tour of the creative process: lots of good illustrations and strategies. I like the new features!

Tarot cards for creative thinkers.. These cards can be used randomly in the same way that tarot cards operate. Tarot cards, however, pretend to be sacred and magical. The Whack Pack cards do the job of tarot: they force you to look deep down into yourself for the answers you've been ignoring. The Whack Pack, like tarot, works psychologically. This app gives you four (now five) suits of cards, each with a different purpose, ranging from generating ideas to implementing them. They help you to think outside the box. But because everyone is doing that since those Taco Bell commercials, Whack Pack helps you think outside the triangle and draw outside the two dimensional line. The card descriptions are creative, effective, and well- written. The artwork is fresh, haunting, discomfiting. it whacks you out of your visual bird's nest. When, like tarot users, you need self-help changing your routine thought patterns, buy this reasonably priced app.

Incredibly Useful and organized. Great App!. I decided to try the online version of Roger's Creative Whack Pack after getting a great deal of use out of the physical set of Creative Whack Pack cards. The App proved to be unbelievably well organized and totally up to date with the latest technology. I have used the Creative Whack Pack App to help guide my students at work through both problems in the classroom and problems in life. The kids have found that the guidance of the cards from the App help them to change their perspective on issues which enables them to solve problems that previously stumped them. I, personally, have found that the App forces me to take an unbiased approach toward my own problem solving because it leads me to think in ways that I may not otherwise be inclined to think. Overall, this product is a must have for pretty much anyone as it can be helpful in work/group settings as well as for personal needs.

A Great Way to Break. A five-minute Creative Whack Pack break is probably more productive than staring at your computer screen all day. This app will stimulate your thought processes and get you to look at problems from a new angle. The notes feature is a helpful addition. The sounds and "share" features are helpful too! Give it a try. I've been a long time fan of this product. Thanks also for adding the 20 new cards!

Great!!!!!!. For those wondering what this app is , just as I was wondering, it helps one look at problems in a different light to gain a different hopefully brighter perspect of their delima. It works wonderfully although right now I am problem free, but when problems arise this will be the first app I got to. As a suggestion I would add a note function so the reader of the whack can note what they like.

An Every Day App. I'm a long-time fan of the Creative Whack Pack card deck. The iPhone version is a trip. The iPad version is also worthwhile. Both are easy to use, and have lots of provocative content. I especially like the creativity Workshops. I did the Oracle workshop this morning and got some useful insights. And I shared some cards too. This is definitely an every day App! I'm glad you keep adding new features to this product.

Great!!. I feel I wrote a review before but was prompted to again. I have had this app for maybe 10 years. It is great!! It is creative and I love how it works. I would definitely recommend!!

Love this!!!!. I took a Creative Thinking class years ago. The ‘Whack’ book and related book was our guide. Then I bought the Creative Whack Pack. I recently found this app. I love it. If my journaling is blocked, I journal about whatever the card triggers. Fabulous app.

Great Firestarter. I have purchased some of Roger’s books and a cassette program and a physical Whack Pack. Roger’s program is a great way to step back from a problem or opportunity to look at it from many different perspectives. Sometimes I forget about it, but what a missed opportunity! Bravo Roger!

A very good product. I've been a long time user of the Creative Whack Pack card deck to stimulate my creative juices. I was recently delighted to find the iPhone version of this product. The developers have done a great job of translating the Whack Pack's content into an App. But even more than that, there's a lot more functionality in the App version. I like the workshops, the "Whack of the Day," and the creative workshops. Best of all is that I can share creative strategies with friends. I recommend the Whack Pack.

Good information, fairly slow interface. A good program with some very useful information and interesting way of zig-zagging around within the app. However, I find myself not using it very often because the interface works very slowly (even on my new iPhone) -- faster and smoother operation would make it a 4 or 5 star app. I also wish the icon were beautiful rather than ordinary; I like the idea of the positive/negative space of the image, yet keep wishing that an app about creativity looked more enticing...

If you work for yourself buy this app. I was skeptical about buying this app at first because I wasn't quite sure what it did. I'm very glad I decided to purchase it. Because I work for myself I can develop a tunnel vision of sorts, where I fall in love with my ideas. This application helps me challenge my ideas to ascertain whether I'm on the right track. It's like having a couple of creative people in the room to bounce your ideas off of. Well worth five bucks.

Wonderful whacks!. 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! ;)

Straight-forward and Practical. This app works as described. It's a series of creativity strategies designed to get us to think a little bit differently. Some ask us to look at problems from a different perspective and some say get the idea implemented. All have stories, sound, pictures, and questions. I think the random way in which these "whacks" are delivered is one of the product's main strengths. Whatever cards we receive seem to be the ones we need. I found the most value in the workshops because there I took time to really engage with the different cards' messages.

A Life Saver!. This app is CBT and BAT on steroids. Save your money on the shrinks! This does it all!!!

Creative juices flow. 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.

Great App and Strategies. Presents effective methods for stimulating creativity and breaking out of mental loops; never ceases to impress.

TERRIFIC APP. Really gets the creative juices flowing and expands the way I approach problems & issues!

Just Wow.. This product is wonderful because it offers fresh perspectives to help keep me creative. Also, it is extremely intuitive and well polished. I was immediately able to use this product and get inspired! I really appreciate the time that obviously went into the product in terms of its inspirational content, and also the software itself. Instant fan.

Long Time User Of The Whack Pack. I found the Whack Pack in a magic store six years ago. Whenever I've needed a bit of mojo, I could play with these clever cards. The iPhone App will give me no excuse to use them more often. Hopefully, future versions of this app could use better social network connectivity,, extrapolation & annotattion features that allow one to expound on what is of value to the card drawn. Since the first release of the app is not much different the deck, I'm not giving the author five stars.

My favorite app. 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

This is an everyday app!!. Think of this as an expanded version of the card-based whack pack. It takes great advantage of the iPhone platform, and provides a great user experience. Simple to navigate, even share Creative Whacks with friends and associates. For inspiration, select Whack of the Day, a new card pops up, and each and every card provides a spark to your imagination, jogs your mind and helps you solve problems big and small. It does a great job addressing the creativity process from many perspectives as well. This is definitely worth the money.

Love the Creative Whack Pack !. I 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 !

Need a creative whack?. Here’s where to get creative brain exercise!

Love this tool. I use this all the time. Great for exercising the mind, jostling the brain, getting new ideas flowing.

Provides a Different Slant on Things. I've been a long time fan of the original Creative Whack Pack card deck. The App version goes way beyond it both in content and functionality. There are many, many more stories and tips. There are also extended workshops (you can save your ideas and review them later). The twenty Heraclitus cards are a wonderful bonus. I try to spend at least five minutes every day thinking about the messages on the cards.

It is Fantastic. This app is tailored to bring out the latent creative in all of us. I cannot believe the care and profundity that went into the making of this app. It has become my daily boost each morning and encourages a mindfulness I didn’t know I had. Heartfelt thanks to all who contributed to the making of this app. It is fantastic.

Make inspired decisions. If you sometimes have trouble making a decision (like me), this is probably the most powerful ally you will find. These cards spur creativity and help you look at your problem from new angles, which can sometimes make all the difference. The best part is that it's still YOU making the decision, the cards just bring you into a more thoughtful and understanding mindset. Not to mention ease of use and cool features. This app is well worth it!

Whack Pack. 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

Excellent Tool, Pays for Itself. I know apps are inexpensive, but when you have a tool that can help you create break-through ideas... Isn't that worth the price of a latte and a muffin? I love that you can choose to view random cards, or choose a program to follow to help you solve a problem. This digital version is more dynamic and more convenient than the physical card deck.

I had one original card for 10 years. Just checked where can I get the whole pack and found this app. I love it. Highly recommended if you can spend time to really read each creative whack. I do!

Wonderful. Have been using the original pack for 20 years, or about. Seems like since 1992. I go through cycles but when I need to get working on my creativity or issue, I get out the wack pack. The app is just a blast. Easy to use and can take notes. Love it. Thanks

A fun and clever approach to boosting your brain's capacity for imagination and creativity. This is not your ordinary iPhone game or application but a daily mini-course for exercising your mind. It's both playful and serious depending upon your mood or the situation of the moment you're brainstorming about. I personally enjoy the Whack of the Day feature because it's both random and usually relevant. Each card in the stack is "vitamin rich" in ideas, perspectives and inspirations. If nothing else, your worldly knowledge will be challenged and hopefully, you'll learn something new about yourself and about how others throughout history have approached life's challenges. In short, it's just plain fun exploring the stack and getting your brain turbocharged into a new way of thinking. And I highly recommend it for educators, parents and students. I am neither a cognitive scientist nor a neuro-biologist but clearly, this is an iPhone application that stimulates your brain into action. And best of all, you can share your mental bliss with others by using the program's clever share feature to send a "creative whack" via email.

Love My Whack Pack!. Great, great mind-stimulating product!

Excellent. Really good app

A Handy App for Incredible Price. I've looked at the whack pack in the college bookstores, brand new is around $30. Some of the teachers require you to use it and to have it on the iPod that won't take up more room than it already does is really handy. I was bumbed about the cost for it in the bookstore, didn't have enough, but randomly found the app and knew I couldn't pass up purchasing it.

Useful, quirky app. Personally, I think this app manages to evade the typical spiral into antiquity that SW normally faces after even 2-3 years. Brings a smile to me when I use it, even still! Here is borne (and remains) the fruit of timeless genius. 😄

Great app to stimulate your thinking. I've been using the Whack Pack series of products since 1998, when I had the physical deck, and have turned to it whenever I've been stuck. I'm glad the author found a way to digitize the cards, since I often forget to take the deck of cards with me while traveling. The app is a faithful adaptation of the deck of cards, and then some. I did not expect it to have workshops with notes and other features, like choosing a random card from a particular suit. I've been recommending it to everybody since I bought the app when it came out 3 years ago!

The App that NEVER Tires!!. Checking out the Whack of the Day has quickly become a part of my morning routine. It’s a surefire way to get the creative juices flowing! The best thing about the Whack Pack is that each card can be used over and over again, serving as your creative guide through any and all of the challenging situations you may face. It is an invaluable investment and can now be conveniently located on your iPhone! Overall, it is a fantastic application that is attractive, easy to use, inspiring, and FUN!! I am certain this is one app that will remain on my home screen for a very long time!

Strong reminders from a good book. There's a lot of value here. We can all pretty much stand to alter our thinking; thence originates creativity. This little app will provoke you and provide the much-needed "whack" as promised. Work with this and think about it when you're stuck waiting. Far better use of your time than playing a video game or reading People magazine.

It Just Works . . .. When the 6.0 update came out for Creative Whack Pack, I found that my first gen IPad would not take the update, being that Apple stopped all support for the original IPads after only two years (not too creative). I feared that I would be stuck with the final 5.1 update of CWP. Not so . . . I contacted the developer of this great app and explained my dilemma and to my amazement found that update 6.1 would be introduced to correct this issue (now thats creative). Roger-thanks for the revised update. All I can say is this app works!

Since the first iPhone. This is one of the first apps I found on the appstore with my first iPhone. When I first got it, I used it every day for a couple weeks and then sparsely sporadically using it at all. I’m probably the oldest millennial from Detroit that uses it as a tool, or uses it at all. It’s great for those professionally dark moments, it’s ever better for those out of idea moments. It strikes the heart of a creative, warms the mind of an engineer, and tickles the thoughts of a logic. I’m gracious that the app has stayed alive this long and hope that it will continue on for many years to come.

Still loving this a decade later, but can we get a graphical update?. Something that takes advantage of the new phones features and screen resolution?

Useful app!. Great for creative strategy. Still love it!

Favorite app. 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!

Stretches My Outlook. I'm always on the lookout for a competitive advantage. Usually it comes as a result of a creative spin of an existing idea. This product forces me to look at what I'm doing in different ways. The questions work best for me. The new notes feature in the workshops makes the questions even more effective. Small investment, nice dividend. Worth sharing with my FB and Twitter friends too!

The perfect diversion when you. At first I thought this might just be a frivolous exercise in reading someone else's lame philosophical meanderings, but I'm hooked. Roger von Oech's "whacks" inspire me when I need a random "kick in the pants" (another of his books, as it happens), or just new thinking on a problem I'm trying to solve. Time and again I gain deeper insights into how else I can look at an issue, to consider its other dimensions, or just step back and let it speak to me without my own noise getting in the way. Others I've sent Whacks to now also enjoy the same mental liberation. Highly recommended for those who like to think, consider, and solve (which excludes those one-star reviewers, I suspect).

Brilliant. Well executed and fun to use. Guaranteed to learn something new.

I use it regularly for a creative kick. This simple app is wonderful for when you’re looking to give yourself a creative kick in the pants. It’s quick, simple, and surprisingly effective.

I’ve used the app & cards for 25 years. They still have that old charm...

20 years after I first read these, still awesome!. Get it! Read it! Use it! Live it!

HOME PAGE FAVORITE.. Found this app while looking for something else. Looked interesting, downloaded it and have used it ever since. Absolutely love it, gets you thinking outside the box. Great app.

Great thinking tool!. This app has excellent tools for thinking, motivation, problem solving and creativity. With valid examples and amazing inspiration, this app is different from all the the rest. It is rare to find such value!

Great tool for solving problems. Getting the tool on iPhone is fantastic. I have used the cards for years, but this app is even better! I can think creatively on the train home from work! Love it!

When was the last time you got stuck thinking the same thing? Give your creativity a Whack!!!. I have been using the Creative Whack Pack for many years. As a Creative and Education Leader I find myself often needing to strategise in on large scale. In the institution, creativity and shifting perspective can be truely challenging. Give your problem a Whack! Sometimes when you shift focus or take on advice, or look at the research, you can take your next steps with more conviction and leverage. One of my favourite tools to keep you current and flexible. Creativity is better with a Whack!!!!

Wonderful!!. Very inspirational and effective!!

Brilliant!. I'm amazed how brilliant I am! Well, that's how I feel when I read the notes I make and email to myself from the app. These cards elicit great ideas and action plans.

Outstanding!. My most favourite app. Thank you!

Frequent user. I used to get a daily whack when they were still cards. It’s easier since it’s been an app… love the added extras too… ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Stimulant!. Bravo! Belle collection de pensées. Bonne organisation.

An app worthy of 5 stars. I have a ton of apps and I have never been wowed like this one. I have the hard version of the Whack Pack and when I just discovered the Iphone version I downloaded it. I love everything about it especially the ability to take notes and use the cards in so many different ways. If you are looking for a creative thinking boost you will not be disappointed!

Our kids and I love this app!. We use this regularly, and it not only is practical, it opens up a lot of meaningful conversations, which are always welcome:)

Brain booster. Kick my brain for good to start a sluggish day by challenging my wits

5 Creative 'whacks' from this side of the country!. I've allways enjoyed Roger von Oech's books "A kick in the seat of the pants" and "A whack on the side of the head" ... So when I saw the Creative Whack Pack for just 5 bucks I got it no hesitations. True, it's a bit pricy for an iPhone app but then again the creative 'whack' I get when I read it (and then apply) it worth the 500 pennies.

Fabulous implementation!. Van Oech's material has always been great. Add that to the iPad implementation and it becomes a "must-have" tool for anyone who is interested in problem-solving or innovation. I will be using this app and showing it to colleagues/clients for quite awhile. And once iPad can print, there will be no stopping this great app . . .

A fabulous app.. When my mojo is low, a creative whack is what I need.

Coach in my pocket. I'll whack for inspiration. Excellent way to shake off cobwebs. Nice options for different ways to use. Well designed!

Simply Brilliant!. This app challenges you to look at the world differently, to think outside of your Box. Its like a Gym for your brain. It is differently one that will make a difference in your life. I highly recommend it.

Dont buy it.. Not worth the price. Dont buy this!

Great!. Good information for stimulating creativity and productivity. Please bring us more great content updates!

Great!. Really helps you to shake/shape up your thought process!

Irreplaceable. Whack pack helps me get work done. I've gotten past so many creative blocks with the app. I've got the cards and the book, too, but the app I've always got with me. It would be nice if it was updated to have retina images throughout (not just in some places), and updated to the iOS 7 look in others, but those cosmetic imperfections don't impede the usefulness at all. Five stars.

I love it!. Well thought out and very creative. Great work!

Fantastic product, would love to see an update :). We have used the Innovative Whack Pack in the form of printed cards in our communication dept for several years. Have really been encouraged and challenged creatively with it, so I decided to purchase the iOS Creative Whack Pack for personal use. Would love to see an update with the ability to search the Whack Pack as well as select favourites for later easy reference. Also it would be nice to be able to swipe back to previously read cards. Keep up the great work!

Great. Keep coming back - and back - to this app. Excellent quick jolt that can help to break old (or defeating) thought patterns and focus on creativity. It interesting over a long term.

Enjoy it very much. I use this tool to kick start my brainstorming. Thank you!

A much better pick me up better than even a Starbucks coffee. Who can argue with the great price….a better wake than even your favourite starbuck coffee. Makes you ponder and think. Great fun .

Think outside the box. Love it!

Fantastic!. Simple, awesome, can give a much needed shift in thinking.

Never fails to get the creative juices flowing. I've been using this app for a number of years now and it never fails to get the creative juices flowing; regardless if you're working on a analytical or artistic problem.

Love this app!. Just buy it already. It's awesome!

Really helpful. This app is really a good tool for all areas of creativity and even at 5 bucks, it's a must have if you are serious enough about applying the principles of the cards. Great concept!

Amazing!. Every time my thumb touches this app my mind is blown away! I use it every chance I get ;)

Steve Jobs is secretly Bugs Bunny. Whack Pack. I could say it's worth the money, but only if you are creative, have a sense of humor, looking for inspiration, and not full of yourself. It was on my main screen, and in a folder. Then I put all the folders on the second screen, and put it on the main screen. Will I use it more than the weather app buried in a folder? Probably not. But every now and then I'll pop it open and give a whack or two. Did I need to tell you that. No, Not really. But it's my review and I will say whatever I want. :) Furthering the tangent, this app sits next to (not counting Facebook) Instapaper, Tilt to Live, Carcassonne, Pastebot, Tweetbot, World of Goo, Calcbot, and PvZ. Like what I did right there ;) I thought so. I found this in the Staff Favourites section in the App Store. Apple Employees thought it was good enough to recommend to me. Genius. And I feel the need to recommend it to you. Sincerely, Wile E. Coyote Aka Genius

Great way to defeat the block. This well- structured app allows you to draw cards to reenergize the creative thought process randomly or through "workshops" which draw a series of cards. You can write and send yourself notes as you read. A great motivator for any project, presentation, or artistic work.

It Keeps on Giving. I've been a happy user since version 1.0. I really like what's been added to the newest release: 20 new cards and the Issue-focused workshops. Keep up the good work.

Best app around.. I use this incredible app more than any I have. It stirs all kinds of thinking , aha's, and smiles all at the same time. I don't miss a day of the daily whack card of the day. Recommend fully to everyone no matter your walk of life!

A Great Creativity Tool!. I'm glad the iPhone exists so that Apps like this can be created. The Creative Whack Pack is fun and practical. I find that I use it every day! The notes feature forces me to spend more time thinking about my creative topics. Thanks for adding the SFX and the Twitter share too!

Great app!. I have been curious about this app for a few weeks. I finally decided to explore it! I wish I would have done it sooner! I can think of a dozen or more lost opportunities where this app could have helped me be more creative! I am looking forward to all the future opportunities I now have!!!

Love it.. Roger von Oech is still a total genius. Bought A Whack On The Side of The Head many years ago and it is awesome to have the essence of this creative magic for the Iphone. Update: how annoying for the price to drop the day after I bought it.

The App That Keeps on Giving. The Creative Whack Pack card deck is one of my favorite creativity tools. The iPhone version is even better. It's a consistent provider of different ways of looking at things! I especially like the "Whack of the Day" feature. Check it out!

Gives My Mind A Workout. This app helps me look at my problems in different ways. I tend to get stuck, and the Whack Pack prods me and provides suggestions to look at things a little differently. Recently, I had a mother-in-law issue, & it helped me think of some alternative ways to deal with her. And then I shared it with her.

Good Ideas Well Worth Having!. Bravo for the new version! I use this app at least every few of days or so. This afternoon it gave me some interview question ideas. Yesterday, a friend & I used it to think about different vacation possibilities. I wonder what issues I'll use it for tomorrow? This is a good product.

Unblock, detour, u-turn. Very helpful to get through, around or reverse direction away from writer's block or dullness. It's time for some new content soon - maybe in a paid upgrade. But - if you haven't used Whack Pack before, you'll get a lot of mileage out of it before you notice the repetition.

Amazing!. I have had the book and card deck since they came out some years ago, and have loved these. But to gave this on my iPhone - well that's simply delicious!

Great app worth the money. As an entrepreneur I am impressed with this app. It helps me ask out of the box questions that often lead to answers I wouldn't otherwise have discovered. A+!!

Good for a Fresh Perspective. Using this app is a great way to put some freshness in your thinking and also reframe problems. I especially like using it with others. Contains a well-thought out set of creative strategies. Good concept, design, and execution. I also like what you've done in the new version.

Love it!. Use it everyday...look forward to the card of the day. Very easy to navigate. Great creative advice and wise thoughts; whether you're looking to tap into the abundance of your creativity, need a new perspective, or just enjoy the thought provoking cards...this app is well designed, and I highly recommend it to anyone.

Gives Me A Different Slant. I like this product a lot. I use it for a few minutes every day — generally in the morning — to get a new slant on my work. The creative workshops are useful too! My two favorite strategies are card 19 (Challenge the Rules) and 43 (Get out of the Dogma House).

Truly superb. I am a writer and have many questions involving the storyline. This has helped so much, not be giving the answer but by letting you figure out the solution! This will help any creative mind. It's worth the price 500%

Fun way to spark new ideas. If you've read Roger Von Oech's books, you've seen all of the creative "whacks on the head" before, but having them appear at random forces you to ask yourself questions you might not have considered. Fun to play with and well thought out.

Not sure why I bought it... But I'm glad I did. Lots of good ideas, fun suggestions, and ways to get out of ruts. If you are stuck this may help you get unstuck, and the format itself is very creative and energetic. Nice little app.

Mixed advice. The graphics are good. The implementation is also good. However, I wouldn't give the advice too much credance. I found some tips helpful, some neutral and some downright foolish to heed. The glowing reviews apparantly contradict this opinion, but I feel strongly that some of these tips will hinder more than help, as they often misinterpret a real issue and lead one down a wrong path. Depends on which card you look at--It's the luck of the draw. I'd call it a good novelty app but not much more.

This App Makes Me Think. I like using this app to start the day. Some of the strategies put me in a "challenge what's going on" mood, and some put me in a "get it done" mood. The workshops are also useful — especially with another person. Glad I found this app.

Long Time Fan!. I've had this app on my iPhone since it first came out in 2009. It's given me many ideas over the years. I love the new version with the enhanced art! I look forward to checking it out on my iPad. Give it a whirl!

Very helpful, but.... ... When I did a 'Workshop,' the note field would not allow me to type below its window, i.e., it didn't scroll down so I could keep recording my responses. Any suggestions? I'd like to use this on a regular basis, but this factor makes it very difficult to do so.

Pretty good, could be better. I'm deducting one star because the Facebook sharing doesn't work. You'll just end up posting your remark but no reference to the card shows. Otherwise the "Oracle" section should also say what each card is supposed to be dealt for like the original card set. That often inspires a lot of mental connections people might not always think of.

Sculptor and Writer. It's intelligent! I used to use the Whack Pack cards, now I use the app. And a lovely sense of humor, so I don't take myself too seriously, and so I can get back to work, w a little more creativity and a smile on my face. I love the sound effects, always making me giggle!!

First Rate Quality. This app was worth every penny. It's like your own therapist or teacher. It's self help of the best kind. The most key thing is do YOU want to change. It's interesting and you learn. Wait, does that make this sound boring? No way!! It's clever and fun

Lots of Sparks to my Thinking!. I wasn't quite sure what to expect when I got this app. On the surface, it's a set of 84 creative thinking strategies, each with a nifty illustration & sound effect. But as I dug down into the product, I was pleasantly surprised to find a treasure-house of stories, anecdotes, and useful creativity examples. Plus, you can do workshops and also take notes.

Very Good Ideas/Very Good Value. This is a very good app. I like the model of the creative process — explorer/artist/judge/warrior — used in the creative strategies. This means that there's a variety of different kinds of "whacks." I like that I can "Share A Whack" with other people via email, Twitter, and Facebook. I also enjoy sharing a card with sounds with strangers. It's a great ice-breaker! A very good value. Excellent job.

I a partner in a small business. I love it. I look forward to using this in a time in a time of need. There is so many times were this would have been handy before I got this.

Sparks-A-Lot!. This App works for both 1) quick use [30 seconds] to spark your thinking, and 2) longer use [5-10 minutes] in a creative workshop. I recommend both ways. The stories, pictures, sounds, and questions in this App will get your creative juices flowing!

Thought-Provoking Strategies. Using the Whack Pack is a good way to put some freshness in your thinking. I try to use it at least every other day or so, either for the "Whack of the Day," or if I have more time, to do a creative workshop. I especially like the stories.

Stir the grey matter. I used the whack pack 20 years ago and just recently found it again. It is as helpful and fun to use as it was back then, and I am sending the whacks to my children, one in business and the other is a teacher. Terrific stuff to get the juices flowing!!

I Dig the Creative Whack Pack. The Creative Whack Pack gave me three ideas today. The "Whack of the Day" was "Combine Ideas." After reading the story and answering the questions, it gave me the prod to make a decision on a problem that's been bothering me. Then I got "Simplify" and read the story about the writer and the editor. Good stuff. I recommend this app!

Even better!. Roger has enhanced this app to take advantage of the the latest technology! The new retina art is visually stimulating. The creative strategies continue to spark my thinking. It's easy to record my ideas and share with friends. I love this wise, funny, unorthodox, insightful tool. Many thanks!

Smart, Useful, and Fun!. Like the new version The CWP app is a smart, useful & fun app. I use it to short circuit my thoughts and re-bounce towards a new angle of what I was doing before I opened the app. Whether just before a briefing, during problem solving, or into a creative process, the benefit is generally tangible. I particularly love the "Whack of the Day" that I try to check out each day. Give it a whirl.

Structure from start to finish. Great way to work through tricky challenges. One of the original and best paper-based tools made a seamless to mobile screen. I often start day with a whack just to reframe my viewpoint. Helps break biases and assumptions in a fun day. It also offers disciplined structure to work through questions. A great tool to have available.

Perfect!. Loved the book, love the cards, and now a simple way to carry them around for anytime use when creative challenges occur (and when don't they?) Great as a reminder and an assist to view things from different directions.

Useful Product. This is a very good product that covers all the bases of the creative process. Useful stories and questions as well. I like the new version. What I'd like to see is a feature that would allow the user to add his/her own creativity cards to the 84 cards that are already there. That would be cool.

This is the best application ever. Every morning I read the wack of the day and my day completely changes I feel closer to achieve my goals I'm able to feel and think positive regardless of what situation I'm in no doubt the best purchase of the year!!!!

Redirects My Train of Thought. Nifty product. I like using it when I'm stuck. Particularly useful early in the morning. It's especially a kick to use in meetings. Especially #37! (I love card #37.) Good stimulation. Fun App! BTW, thanks for adding the 20 new cards. Good stuff!

It helps me to think differently. The Creative Whack Pack is a fun set of creativity strategies. Sometimes I use it for a few minutes to get a quick hit of inspiration. Sometimes I do the workshops when I have a specific problem. Check it out. Love the retina art in the new version. Pops right out!

A Couple of Minutes Every Day. I consult this product for several minutes every day. I like the "Whack of the Day" for a quick story and insight. Helps me look at things a bit differently.

Productive Day-Starter. A few minutes every morning with this app is a productive way to start the day. It gets me thinking about things in different ways. Sometimes I use it in meetings as well (when things get bogged down). I also like the new Heraclitus cards that have been added.

Very Cool!. Using this app is a great way to put some ideas in your mind. It also helps me reframe my problems. I especially like using this app to brainstorm with other people. Good concept and execution. Thanks also for adding landscape mode for the iPad (that's how I use it most)!

Perfect. I've had the physical card set for years and thought the story of this product was great, but complete. The app is perfection- not just a rehashing of the original cards, but a fantastic new creature that takes full advantage of the medium. -Patrick Wilson, Creative Director, FutureView

Love the new version!. Great update. The art looks wonderful! I try to use this app every few days or so to prod my thinking in new directions. Most of the time, I use it by myself, but I've also found that it's surprisingly effective in group situations.

Great start to the day or project. I enjoy using this app every morning to give me whack, a smile, a different perspective. I post the 'Card of the Day' to my Twitter and Facebook posts using Ping and have received feedback that my followers enjoy the information. I find this an effective alternative to spreadsheet analysis. By bringing more creative thinking to an issue, superior solutions come out. Thanks for fixing the Facebook and Twitter interfaces after those apps were updated creating an problem posting to them. John Schneyer Boca Consultants

1 of my go-to's. I've been a fan of Roger's work for years, So, bias revealed! Having said that, I will say that I like this app and use it more than I use any of the old card decks or bucks. Not only that, but I think I use it more than I ever use those even when this didn't exist. Great prompts for creativity and inspiration. A powerful tool, especially if you include the workshops built into the app. Obviously, if you don't use it it's not so great. But if you do, you will experience the value. Highly recommended

Really awesome app!. If you are ever looking for something to get the ideas rolling, you need this app! This is a great tool for un-clogging your brain. Works great and has lots of great ways to make use of it. We share cards via email with our partner who has the card deck but no iphone- and that works great too. One of my fave apps.

Creative Indeed!. Great thought-provoking presentations that make you think. However, I'm not a fan of the graphics. It gives me the heeby-geebies. I did notice that the notes you take are not searchable. In other words, once you make a notation, you have to immediately e-mail yourself or you'll lose them forever in the stack of cards. That's no good when you want to go back and review what you've studied. Landscape support would be a welcome addition as well.

Productive Way to Start the Day. I give myself a few minutes every morning to play with this app. It gets my thinking going in a fresh way. Occasionally I'll use it in meetings when things start getting repetitive and we need a different approach. I also like the stories and tips.
