Love Nudge Reviews

by Us

I am huge fan of LoveNudge. I love the ability to share love tank success and opportunities with your spouse. My wife and I are on a road to recovering our marriage and this was a huge success for the first day. Then...LoveNudge would not allow me to login. When I open LoveNudge it always asks me to login...after entering my user is and password, it just stays on the login page and never advances to open my account up. On two random occasions since I first accessed LoveNudge I was able to open LoveNudge and it was already logged in.
But then, after adjusting my love tank and sending a nudge to my wife, it failed to open or login. This is such a disappointment...my wife is experiencing the same issue as well.
Hope this gets fixed soon, we really look forward to LoveNudge to help us keep our marriage on track.

LoveNudge would be better if it let YOU set goals for your partner and your partner set goals for you based on their love language instead of vise versa and then LoveNudge NUDGE them to do those things. Right now it’s basically you have to pick things you THINK your partner would like. It would make more sense for the other partner to pick each other’s goals because who else would know how they like to receive love better than themselves? It would be better than having the other person guess which things they would like. Also the messaging feature is annoying (it shows a three second animation in between each message you send and because we text fast and the other person usually replies before the animation is even done and it ruins the flow of the conversation.) Literally no other messaging app does this, please get rid of the animation. Lastly it would be amazing if there could be a widget that could show your partners love meter and a suggestion of one of your daily goals to love them. These improvements would make LoveNudge be five stars.

My wife and I had some drastic schedule changes in the last couple months that had us both running on empty. LoveNudge gave us a reminder of what we know, and a simple but effective way to prompt one another on how to get back up to full. After two days of using LoveNudge my wife and I are both filled up. Also, I like that the goals can be given a frequency to remind me to do the things that she needs instead of dwelling on the things I want.

I give LoveNudge 3 stars because it doesn’t seem very sticky. There’s room to turn this into something that’s life changing rather than just helpful. I’d like to see more suggestions that could help us get new ideas when we feel stuck. Another thing that could help is adding quiz questions for one another to help us better learn each other’s love languages. My final thought is it may be interesting to have reports on when the Love tank is most likely to be empty. For example - tracking the hour updated and the date could show if the morning or evening is when we should be more proactive.

I’d love to give this 5 stars it’s really cute but I wish there was a little more options in the goals part for long distance couples.
I also wish that you could change the % thing throughout the day. Also there should be little mini games to play with your significant other to help better understand each other. Overall I think it is a good app it just needs some improvements. Especially in the long distance part to include more relationships. I would also like for the partner to be able to choice there own picture because the picture that I chose and the picture that he chose are different and I can’t change them to what he chose without saving the picture to my camera roll and changing it myself if that makes sense haha😁 you should also be able to add a little note at the end of the day at the % section to tell how that day went ❤️

Fantastic idea! Love the idea behind it. The stats tracking are great! My current biggest problem is that I cannot get LoveNudge to mark completed goals, nor can I find tutorials or troubleshooting resources to determine if I’m missing something obvious! So the stats and tracking are currently useless to me! For even greater useability, I’d love to see a version that isn’t solely focused on a romantic relationship. I’d love for it to have the option to share and track with multiple people- parents, children, friends. A++++ would be a profile to track your relationship with God! Please let me know if you have any resources to help make this useful for me! I’ve spent over 20 minutes trying to figure out how to mark goals complete- it’s either broken or so unintuitive as to lose a huge number of potential users!

I am just starting LoveNudge, and I’ve been hoping to find something like it for a long time. I love the concept and the ability to connect with my partner, but I did notice one thing that seems to be missing. I saw that you can have reminders set and that you can choose to have those reminders sent at different frequencies, but I don’t see that reminders can be set to be sent on a specific calendar date. For example, a yearly reminder of an anniversary or birthday can be set, but I only see that you can choose the day of the week it’s sent, not a specific date. Maybe I missed something and I’ll figure it out as I use it more. If not, maybe a calendar option to choose the exact date of a reminder would be good. Thanks!

I recently started using LoveNudge with my husband to work on our marriage and so far it’s been pretty good. One major flaw is the percentage meter. This is a potential fight starter as everyone will view their love tank differently. There is no weight to the percentages. Say for instance Someone expects 10 acts of service a day and their partner has done one. They would put 10%. But to the partner, one word of affirmation might be all they want during the day, and their love tank might sit at 100%. Obviously, someone’s feelings are going to be hurt. Also, you can’t separate the categories in the love tank to rank them either. One day I was in bed sick and my husband took care of the kids all day for me. So I didn’t necessarily get “loved” in terms of my primary love language (woa) but acts of service was spot on. There should be a way to give each category/LL it’s own percentage and then a weighted average total could be produced for that day/week, etc. I feel this would easier if LoveNudge asks a few questions at the end of the day on ways your partner has showed you love and generated it’s own outcome. That way there is less of a chance for miscommunication, misunderstanding and hurt feelings.

I love so much about LoveNudge! Two things that would really improve its usability are-
1. The reminders don’t often show up. It seems almost random that I get a reminder in my phone notifications. I have it set to do all of the notification things I can- persistent banner, Notification Center, etc- but it rarely shows up. I have to be mindful to go into LoveNudge to use it. It would also be great if it notified when your spouse requested an update or sent a message.
2. There is a limit on the number of messages it stores but I think I’m understanding the Nudges option better now that I figured out how to use the arrow- it’s not so much for messaging as it is for sending specific suggestions on how to speak your love language.

by StephanieLaurenSanders

My husband and I just got started using this, and it’s a helpful tool for me to remember to give my personal time to him (he’s quality time, I’m acts of service). However, we both wish we could add personal goals/wish list to share with each other, instead of the goals just being centered on the other person. That’s definitely important, but being able to share your needs in writing with your partner can be really helpful for those that need things in writing. They can then add those things to their goal list. I know you could just talk about them and set them, but if a relationship is having communication issues that might not happen. Just a suggestion from someone who isn’t always good at asking for what she needs!

by Jasper3542

I really love the potential of LoveNudge, especially because my husband and I spend time apart because of our work, and LoveNudge helps me connect with him by reminding me to check in and make sure he feels thought of and appreciated.

I would really like it if there were a “randomize” feature that could set up a random batch of goals for the week, month, or even year ahead. I can’t always follow up on a planned and pre-scheduled nudge, and I don’t always have time to comb through things as minute as “touch his knee while driving” and schedule them, but a random notification about something I could do that day, week, month, or year would be a nice reminder that I reach out while keeping things spontaneous and a little more diverse. Thoughts, devs?

by Danithrocki

I just got LoveNudge and so far it seems great! However, my love languages are all pretty evenly scored. What I think would be really wonderful is if we could go through the optioned lists of goals and services a partner can do and rate each one as to how much one service would mean to someone over another. Example: verbalizing appreciation would be scored a 2 on a 1-5 scale (5 being high) while a secret love note would score a 5 for me. They are in the same love language, but one means a lot more to me than the other. And I would love if we had the ability to rate each option. I think it would be super helpful for our partner to know more specifically what would make us feel most loved, etc. I hope this makes sense. 😊 love LoveNudge otherwise though!

by Kimbo1031

My husband and I downloaded this just last night and the features in LoveNudge are awesome! We’ve got kind of a rough spell so we’re trying to reconnect and make sure we’re showing each other love and the action suggestions based on your partners love languages coupled with reminders and the “love tank” gauge are all really great tools to help you stay on track. The suggestions are honestly great because some things on the lists are things you’d never think about, or really realize that it might be something they’d enjoy. Definitely recommend!

by Krose55

My parent and I were searching for solid long distance apps and this one popped up... at first I skipped over it because it seemed like a bad fit but it’s actually perfect! Definitely consider this if you are wanting a way to track how you both are feeling while apart and keep up all the healthy communication habits that are so important when far apart. The love language quiz is really good too and worth the length! It feels like a secret weapon to know each of your love languages before you start long distance— you can both plan for ways to express love while you are apart that the other will appreciate.

I love the 5 Languages series. I have read them all and have taught some classes based on them. But the Love Tank meter has a serious flaw—you can’t update your love tank level unless you change the percentage. My wife and I have been in a new and incredible season of our love life together. When I first opened LoveNudge my love tank was 100% full and hasn’t diminished in the seven days since. I would love to be able to update LoveNudge do my amazing and wonderful wife could know that she has kept my love tank at overflowing for so many days in a row, but the only way I can accomplish an update would be to artificially lower the number from 100% and that would likely crush her. She has always had such a hard time speaking my love language(s) but lately she has been doing such an incredible job and I can’t use this one possible method to encourage her to keep pressing forward. She deserves the kudos and I really want her to gain the confidence she deserves from knowing my love tank has remained at an overflowing state for so many days in a row.

by Jjallen22

First, we love LoveNudge !! So much fun! I noticed that when we request the partner for their love tank the date for last update is a day ahead. The date/time on my phone is correct.

Developer: Could you make it possible to share the note in our love tank with our partner? Not sure why notes are kept private. If needed make it optional to share or keep notes to yourself. Thanks! Also, are you able to request multiple times for an live tank update? Maybe once an hour or set a limit of requests per day? It would be nice to be able to “check in” throughout the day.

by Amber5499

Developers for some reason I can’t turn off the reminders for goals I have mastered. I have tried in the edit goal screen and the reminders keep popping up.

We don’t use the love tank or texting feature. Everytime my husband complains about something I do or don’t do I add it to the list of goals. I just pick the same icon for all of them. Too much work looking for something that fits. I wish you could put more than 40 characters in the goal. I also would like to be able to remove reminders. I decided that since I am looking at it daily or about every other day I really only need one reminder and I can look through all of my list at that time. Also I have changed many of my bad habits so some tasks are now automatic and so I don’t need the reminder right now but I don’t want to forget that I have improved or that at one time it was a trigger or an issue so I don’t want to just delete the goal or LoveNudge . This part of LoveNudge has helped me take a good look at myself and fix myself and it has helped me focus on rebuilding our love tank whether by avoiding annoying behaviors that I don’t want anyway or by developing healthy habits and by doing more of what builds my husbands love tank

by JewelleH

LoveNudge made me strive to see 100% love tank lol. From the little nudges to the goals to filling up the tank this really does help! Also since you can only update your tank (if you are on 100%) by going down, every morning set both of your’s love tanks down to zero. So instead of getting hurt by seeing it go down from 100 least you can be happy with the fact that its going up from zero. Even if you dont get to a 100 that day its a great app, makes you ask “what did I do to get an 85? 50?” sometimes we say hurtful things or come off as ungrateful without realizing it and least the love tank brings attention/room to talk about it. Thanks for keeping LoveNudge FREE!

by ScotChestnut

I’ll just start out by saying that I think this is a terrific idea, and LoveNudge is flawlessly designed. It’s a great way to learn more about your significant other and express love in ways that are most meaningful to them. Reminders are very good, and there are plenty of terrific ideas for each love language contained in LoveNudge . Caveat: both parties need to be on board and willing to commit to use it, otherwise there is potential for some seriously hurt feelings. If you both want to build your relationship up, this could be a valuable tool to help with that. If one party is disinterested, it’s easy for the other one to get discouraged. I’m the only person in my marriage using LoveNudge now, but that’s okay. Unconditional love is just that!

So far I’m loving it! My girlfriend and I downloaded LoveNudge, took a quick test to find what we value most in a relationship, and now we have fun every day growing together! Come to find out she’s not about getting gifts and would much prefer my touch and words of encouragement. It’s funny to think an app would help to improve our relationship, but it has! As a man, it’s helped to have LoveNudge as a reminder of what I can do to deepen and further our relationship as well as help me to stretch and grow as a person. To whomever is reading this: if you are skeptical about “inviting a app” into your relationship, download LoveNudge and do it all on paper 😂 finding out your partners love languages is PRICELESS! Adore him/her with how they enjoy- you won’t regret it 💛

by Jayboi6442

It’s not complex, it’s not really something you’ll spend a whole lot of time on, but it’s a really nice tool to add another vector of communication with your partner, and is such a great reminder for me on hard days. Me and my partner have been using it for a few weeks now I believe, and I think it’s pretty great so far. I don’t have any major problems, however I do have a recommendation: I understand that 100% is an end cap, however, I feel it may be to some benefit to allow maybe some “overflow” love meter level, say allowing it to go to 150%, where 100% is the normal high point, and on particularly special occasions it can go over 100%, such as great dates, weddings, honeymoons, that sort of thing! I thought it would be nice, especially when most people consider 100% to be where they would normally be at anyway

LoveNudge has great potential, but I don’t feel like the 2 users experience is quite integrated enough yet. If I can create goals for myself, awesome, but why can I not create goals for my partner or vice versa? If we sit down and talk about them, that’s fine, but it seems like something that should be able to be done in app. The nudge feature also feels a little juvenile. If I create goals for my partner, or him for me, it seems like LoveNudge itself should be able to nudge if I’m not fulfilling those goals. My partner shouldn’t have to; that takes away from not having to put in the emotional labor. It’s a great concept and I can’t wait to see where it goes!!

My boyfriend and I both love the idea of LoveNudge . I think it does help to have reminders.
One thing I’m not sure how to handle is this idea of “keeping score” sometimes we might be having a disagreement and then one of us will update with a low % and then the other will get offended or update lower. Sometimes we feel like we are doing our best and the other person doesn’t think so.
I try to give myself 24 hours to update after my boyfriend updates his so it doesn’t feel like a negative response. I think it would be helpful to create lists from other people on LoveNudge that show examples of all the languages. More in depth view points and suggestions from other couples.

by Braiden Hatfield

I haven’t read the books, but I think LoveNudge really has potential to help my relationship become stronger, as it will help communication of needs between us and be so in love we seem permanently in the honeymoon phase. But I do have some suggestions. I think it would be cool to have private goals and like a “Couple’s Goals” that both partners can see common goals to work for -together-, and still be able to have your personal goals like “ask about their day”, or “fix them surprise breakfast”. And maybe little features like date night favorites that both partners can add to and requests like that. It’s like making relationship stuff and communication a game without realizing it.

by Kjrenny

Such a wonderful app. I first heard about the message that my pastor spoke based on this book but then I went to look for the quiz and I saw that they have a whole entire app. my husband who is very quiet and laid-back was very apprehensive but out of love he gave it a try. we are at the start of learning one another’s love language and being conscious. We’re learning what we like and don’t like I wish that LoveNudge would suggest task for us to do for the other person based on the language as oppose to us figuring out the task

by LearningT

My husband and I use it regularly and its a great way to lift each other up and remind each other that we do love each other :) I am an old fashion , write love notes on paper and leave it on his pillow or in suitcase.. my husbands an IT guy so this is more up his alley!
One thing I wish it had ( and maybe it does?) is a way to get back into app if it gets deleted. I accidentally had apps deleted on my phone and since I had a “ link” I could not find a way to log in again.. I lost all the “ nudges” aka love notes!

Love LoveNudge! I like the breakdown of percentages with Love Language results and the ability to take the quiz from within LoveNudge . The goal suggestions are great! Especially if you have a hard time coming up with ways to speak your spouse’s love language. Just wish there was a family version! Would be great to set up so parents, children, and siblings could connect and set goals and view the rising and falling of their family’s Love Tank levels.

I read the 5 Love Languages and learned a lot about myself and the people in my life. LoveNudge (from the same people I believe) is helpful in reminding you to take time each week/day (you choose the settings) to focus attention and love towards your Significant Other. We shouldn’t have to be reminded but life is hectic and LoveNudge gently “nudges” you towards making love a habit. The emails are also good for thought - those are optional also.
