Pocket Ariely for Android
Featuring Dan Ariely, renowned behavioral economist, acclaimed speaker, bestselling author of Predictably Irrational, The Upside of Irrationality, and The (Honest) Truth About Dishonesty, and stand-in Superman, Pocket Ariely supplies you with the cutting edge in modern decision science.
Just look at what it can do:
READ! life-changing advice from a “genius at understanding human behavior” [James Surowiecki, staff writer at The New Yorker and author of The Wisdom of Crowds], and never make another bad decision!
WATCH! lectures and entertaining videos from “one of my heroes” [George Akerloff, 2001 Nobel Laureate in Economics], and never let anyone else make a bad decision either!
LISTEN! as a man described as “surprisingly entertaining” [USA Today] interviews the leading scientists of the day, and learn everything there is to know about humanity!
LOOK! at visual illusions that will twist your brain into knots, and remind yourself of your own irrational tendencies wherever you are!
TASTE! the culinary confections of a man widely acknowledged as the finest improvisational chef in three states, and never go hungry again! (Well, not really…)
With Pocket Ariely in your pocket, you can take Dan Ariely with you wherever you go. You’ll be happier (since you’ll never make another bad decision), healthier (since you’ll never make another bad decision), wealthier (since you’ll never make another bad decision) and wiser (yes, you guessed it: since you’ll never make another bad decision). We almost guarantee it!
Does $5 sound pricey for an app? Think about how much you spend on coffee in a week. Or how much money you waste on products you don’t need. Just think: you could improve your life forever by saving your lunch money and bringing a salad to work on just a couple occasions. Your waistline may thank you, too! But most of all, think about how the purchase of this app will help the blossoming field of behavioral economics, as all profits will be put toward research being conducted at Dan Ariely’s Center for Advanced Hindsight at Duke University.
So, by buying this app, you are ensuring its future existence. Thank you in advance for helping science.
Awesome app. I loved his course on coursera, and being able to watch the lectures again, anytime I want to, is great. Not to mention the extra (lots of it!) material that the app has. Superb podcasts. Can't thank you enough for this. Best spent 5 bucks of my life.
Very useful, provides answers on the spot. I was amazed how it got installed automatically into my preferable tablet. Dan Ariely has revolutionised the way i think and make decisions!
I have been wondering if this is only another experiment by D.A because of the way he priced & marketed it. It would have been good way to test some of his wisdom... I meant... science. Like also the rest of the work of Mezzolab but the app needs some update as outlined in other reviews. However, yes the content is great and supporting fun/useful science deserves the foregone glas of red wine.
I had purchased the Pocket Ariely app in Nov 2013. Post which I had, had to format my phone. During this the app has been deleted as the phone was reset to factory settings. All the details pertaining to the order have been emailed to you. Please guide me on how can I reinstall this app on my phone again. Please do the needful at the earliest. Awaiting your reply.
I would pay $10 to remove the introduction i have to hear every time i open it about being in my pocket, and to make a more organized interface that doesn't look like scattered Alice in Wonderland decals without any labels. I love the idea of the app, the content, and the support of behavioral economics research. Please consider a revised interface.
I can't say enough good things about having Dan in my pocket. This is fun and informative. Worth every penny and then some.
It would be nice if you could listen to the content when the screen was off. The intro also gets annoying over time.
Thank you for your research!
Dan is the master of human irrationality, and you'll be surprised how irrational you've always been when it comes to spending money.
Worth the price
I wish there was a way that content such as the podcasts can run in the background. My phone auto locks after 30 seconds, and the last thing I want to do is keep taping my phone to listen to the amazing content. Making them available offline will be great too
