Tangled.

This is a state that everyone will encounter. There will be times when we stand at a crossroads and feel at a loss. For us, choice does not mean gain, but more likely loss.

So, when we make a choice, we will weigh it again and again, but we don’t know that opportunities are often missed due to hesitation.

If you are still hesitant to make a choice, you might as well try these 4 apps and a book recommended by AppSo (WeChat ID appsolution), which may give you the courage to make a choice.

Picko #iOS

When we are in trouble, we will naturally turn to others for help, hoping that our friends can give clear and rational advice from a third party's perspective.

If you only need to choose one or the other, then Picko would be a good choice. It is a social application with "choice" as its core. It allows friends to vote for what they think is the best option to help you make a decision.

On the homepage, you can see the choices initiated by the friends you have followed and vote. In addition to this, you can see comments and voting details for that selection.

If you are also struggling with something, you can click "+" to edit the thing you want to ask (it is better to add a picture), set the expiration time of the question, and mark the location for posting. Later, you can also send the voting link to your WeChat friends, share it in Moments or Weibo, and ask your friends to help you make your choice.

The advantages of using Picko to choose one from the other are:

1. Instead of struggling alone, you can ask your friends to help you make decisions together;

2. After publishing, you can see real-time visual statistics and the results are clear at a glance;

So next time you are faced with a choice between two options, you might as well open Picko and let your friends help you make the choice.

Picko is available for iPhone with iOS 7.0+, 20.1 MB, completely free.

Rolling #iOS #Android

I know that not everything is worth using Picko to ask friends for their opinions. Let the completely random Rolling solve trivial tangled matters.

Rolling offers 6 different random selection modes:True or False, ABCD, Casual and Fun, Color Selection, Number Selection, and Dice Selection. In addition,you can also use Rolling to play dice with your friends.

When you don’t know which option to choose when answering a question, you don’t know what to do when you have free time, or you even don’t know what color to choose when buying clothes, you can use Rolling to help you choose randomly.

It is worth mentioning that you can turn on the "shake" function in the settings. Just shake your phone and you can start random selection.

Rolling is available for iPhones with iOS 5.1+ and devices with Android 2.2+. The iOS version is 4.8 MB and the Android version is 1.5 MB, completely free.

Whichor #iOS

Like Rolling mentioned above, Whichor is also a life decision-making app that can make random choices for us. However,it emphasizes random selection in different scenarios.

Whichor helps you make decisions with a random wheel. It has 5 different built-in scenarios to deal with different tangled situations: who to find, where to go, whether to go, what to do online, and how to relax. You can add more options and edit option names in the settings to make the struggle more intense.

For example, if you don't know who you want to date, then select "People", click the settings button in the lower left corner, and edit the number and names of the "candidates" you want to date. Then click the "play button" in the middle to start the turntable, and you can make a random selection.

Whichor is suitable for iPhone with iOS 8.1+, size 17.2 MB, priced at 6 yuan.

ChoiceMap #iOS

Unlike the apps mentioned above, ChoiceMap does not randomly make choices for you, but helps you make a "good choice" by "completing a questionnaire."

ChoiceMap has preset "choice templates" that can test how many children you are suitable for and which contraceptive method is best for you.

Of course, you can also create a new card to create the content you want to test to help you choose a suitable job, major, etc.

In Options, select or enter the factors that will influence your decision and tell ChoiceMap how important those factors are. ChoiceMap will weight each option based on your choice, automatically calculate the score, and tell you the most likely/suitable choice.

Many times people get entangled because they are too emotional. ChoiceMap adds more rational elements to your final choice, helping you make a choice more calmly.

ChoiceMap is available for iPhone with iOS 9.2+, is 9.2 MB, and is completely free.

Book of Answers

If the thing you are struggling with is not a "choice question" but an "open question", then I guess you need a "Book of Answers".

Every page in the book is printed with some ambiguous and unclear hints, but it can always provide some direction to those who are confused. When you are confused, open this book and the page you stay on may have the answer you want.

Perhaps none of the tools I recommend can solve every major issue in your life, but it can smooth out the annoying details of life.

AppSo (WeChat ID appsolution) hopes that after reading this article, your life will be less entangled.
