Clara for Daters

Heard about Clara on a podcast. I really like the concept and the questions. It’s a quick and easy way to record info on dates. Big glitch => I like to use voice to text. However, when I do that for a note, the text disappears when I end the recording. It’s so very frustrating to lose an entire note. Now, I manually type each note. Minor display issue => When finished typing a note, the DONE button isn’t visible. I have to click outside of the note to make the keyboard disappear, which makes the done button visible. Overall, nice concept. I like it and I hope these issues are fixed.

I LOVE the concept. Having “try outs”, “friendlies”, “cut” categories for my dating prospects is great. Immediate the app helped me feel that I’m reflecting on MY experience of the date rather than a “pick me” mindset. Two complaints which make this app less than usable for me: no ability to edit or modify date notes. No ability to get information out of the app if I wanted to analyze the data myself (and not good analysis built in). The data is all there — what type of date, how I felt, specific notes, locations. But no way to see trends or use that information going forward.

Guilty admission: before Clara, I used to keep track of all the women I matched with on apps truth my phone notes just to make sure I checked in with everyone and didn't forget anyone (not a flex, just the truth lol). Clara took that to a whole other level though. I'm able to organize my prospects with pictures, names, locations, notes in a journal style, and date logs that track how I'm feeling about a certain person based on our interactions. It's a one-stop shop to make sure I date in the most optimal and efficient way possible, which is beyond useful for some whose brain works in the way mine does. Fantastic idea for an app and supremely well executed on initial roll out. Can't wait to see how it's improved in the future as well!
