10 Positive User Reviews for Oblique Strategies SE
Very cool, very useful, almost 5 stars
I love the idea of this app but I feel like it really needs user cards added.
I’d love to have a custom deck, one of my own strategies, that can be mixed in with the others.
This would be huge as it allows my older self, full of creative ideas, to give my future self little barrier breaking advice. Please add custom decks!!!! Thanks :)
Better late than never
I wish I'd known about this years ago! I formerly toured in a metalcore band and now compose & produce ambient/psytrance electronic music. I came across Oblique Strategies while reading up on Brian Eno's process. I've often used constraints to attempt to get unstuck. However, these cards offer many more methods. I once read a book called "One great insight is worth a thousand ideas". These cards will lead to many great insights.
The widget is blank- finally fixed with latest update
Love the paper product. The app is nice. Very clean. Minimalist. But the daily widget on the home screen has never worked for me. It just gives a blank box.
None of the suggestions to fix the widget worked.
But the new version fixed the problem

Awesome app
I agree with the other reviewer that said this was the best of the oblique strategy apps, given that the user can modify the screen presentation and also choose between the different set versions. A bargain for two bucks.
One of my favorite apps
I love my deck on the studio and it’s nice to have a portable version too
Creative kick in the head
Been a fan since these were on paper and on my Palm pilot. Nothing fancy, just beautifully minimal to spur a random thought to generate creative thinking and application.
Would love to be able to add my own cards to the deck
This is a great app, but it would be great to have a function for adding our own cards to the deck.
Sometimes you need
These directives are logs for stubborn camels that got stuck. It’s a pretty versatile thing...read the manual.
Great! Widget needs auto light/dark option.
Simple and minimal; exactly as it should be. The only thing lacking is an option for the widget to switch from light to dark automatically with iOS system setting. Add this and it’s perfect!
