Show HN: I created an app for you to be a more unpredictable romantic partner

Depends.

If someone defers their decision making process to an app and blindly gets flowers when it tells them to, I wouldn’t like that.

If someone uses an app like this as an inspiration or a reminder, then I could see this working well.

And then again there is the gray area where things get mixed.

The EU rules are essentially that if you give them information for a particular purpose, they can only use it for that purpose and no other. So they obviously want to break this.

Doubtless if you use this you're training a model that understands what kind of interactions romantic partners find meaningful and sentimental.

First impression matters: no iOS sso and pw policy intransparenten, had to retry x 4 without any useful feedback

Lots of comments are saying this is disingenuous, but they are missing the fact that you have to care enough about your partner and relationship to get this app, and actually follow through with the suggestions. There is nothing disingenuous about that, and, frankly, most people wouldn’t care or couldn’t be bothered enough to actually do it.

As a busy adult with ADHD, a young kid, and a demanding job it is hard to remember to regularly surprise my partner and keep things fun, interesting, and unpredictable year after year. I always want to but can’t always remember to. I think this is a great idea. Personally, I would not follow the suggestions directly, but would add some personal creativity, or just use it as a concept to trigger my own ideas. I usually do already do surprise/ mystery dates and things like that when I remember to.

That said, I won’t be trying this app because of the account requirements mentioned by others. Deal breaker for me.
