FAQ

Frequently asked questions

About Wabiro

Is Wabiro free?

Yes. Every experience gives you a complete result for free, without an account: your score, profile, stats or verdict, and a card to share. Some experiences also offer an optional one-time report or unlock — labelled with its price, shown only after your free result, and it never renews. Separately, Wabiro+ is an optional subscription that connects your results over time; no free result depends on it.

Do I need to create an account or give my e-mail?

No. Nothing is asked before your result — no e-mail, no card, no sign-up. An optional account (magic link, no password) lets you recover a purchase on another device and, if you want, keep your Wabiro ID summaries across devices. Only Wabiro+, the optional subscription, requires one, because a subscription belongs to an account.

Is this a psychological or clinical test?

No. Wabiro is a self-reflection and entertainment tool built on documented rules. It is not a clinical assessment, a therapy service or a professional relationship diagnosis, and it never labels anyone toxic, narcissistic or abusive. If you are worried about your mental health or your safety, talk to a professional.

Where do my answers go?

Nowhere, by default. Questionnaire answers stay in your browser and results are calculated there; imported chats are analysed on your device and never uploaded. If you create a share link or buy an unlock, we store a short summary (a score, a profile or a few aggregate numbers) — never your individual answers or messages, and never in analytics.

What does a shared result card show?

Only the headline of your result — a profile name, a level or score, a verdict or a few totals — and an invitation to try the experience. No answers, no messages, no personal data. On chat results you choose whether names appear as display names, initials or not at all.

Are paid unlocks a subscription?

No. Reports and unlocks are one-time payments: one price, shown before you pay (VAT included where applicable), and nothing renews. The only subscription is Wabiro+, which is optional and sold on its own page: it is billed every month or every year at the price shown before you subscribe, and renews automatically until you cancel from your account page (“Manage billing”). Cancelling stops the next renewal; you keep Wabiro+ until the end of the period you paid for. Every payment is processed by Stripe, and nothing opens until Stripe confirms the payment to our server.

Can I get a refund?

Yes, within 14 days if a paid report or unlock has not met your expectations — write to us with your receipt. Refunded purchases are revoked.

Can I delete my data?

Yes. On a result page, “Delete my data” removes the result from your device and deletes any share link or synced summary from our servers. Account holders can also export or delete their account from the account page.

Who can use Wabiro?

Anyone aged 16 or over. Wabiro must not be used to harass, stalk or monitor someone, or to make decisions about a person’s job, housing, health or care.

Which languages are available?

English and French today. Spanish and German are being prepared on the same architecture.

Purity Test

How is the purity score calculated?

You start at 100 and answer 50 yes/no questions in six categories. Each category scores the share of questions you answered “no”, and the purity score is their weighted average, rounded to a whole number. The full method is public on the methodology page.

Will anyone see my purity answers?

No. Your yes/no answers never leave your device. A challenge link only shows your score, your profile name and an optional nickname — never which questions you answered “yes” to.

What does a high purity score mean?

Only that you answered “no” to most of the 50 questions: 100 means none of the listed experiences, 0 means all of them. It says nothing about your values, your worth or your health, and there is no good or bad score — most people take it to compare with friends and laugh about the gaps.

Where do purity tests come from?

Purity tests started as a US college tradition: a checklist of experiences, scored out of 100, passed around during first-year orientation. The best-known is the Rice Purity Test. Wabiro’s purity test is an independent game with its own 50 original questions and a public scoring method; it is not affiliated with Rice University or any other purity test.

Vanilla Purity Test

What does “vanilla” mean in the Vanilla Purity Test?

Vanilla as in the classic ice-cream flavour: familiar, predictable, comfortable — in a nice way. A very vanilla person sticks to plans, comfort zones and sensible bedtimes; a less vanilla person says yes to last-minute trips, bold texts and the occasional dare. The questions are about everyday life, never anything explicit.

How is it different from the regular Purity Test?

It is the softer version. The Wabiro Purity Test asks 50 questions that include nightlife and riskier experiences; the Vanilla Purity Test asks 60 lighter ones about crushes, social life, adventure, harmless rule-bending and awkward moments, so it works for a much broader audience. Both use the same rule — 100 means you said no to everything — but the two scores are not comparable with each other.

How does the Vanilla Purity Score work, and what is a good score?

You start at 100 and every “yes” takes 1⅔ points off, so the score is 100 minus your percentage of yeses. 90–100 is Certified Vanilla, 0–14 is Vanilla Left the Building, and most people land somewhere in between. There is no good or bad score: it only counts which of these 60 everyday experiences you have had, not your personality, your values or your worth.

Attachment Style Test

What are the four attachment styles?

Researchers describe adult attachment with two dimensions: anxiety (worry about rejection or being loved less) and avoidance (discomfort with closeness and depending on others). Low on both is usually called secure, high anxiety anxious, high avoidance avoidant, and high on both fearful-avoidant. Wabiro places you on both dimensions and names the style from where you land, so you also see how close you are to another style.

How accurate is this attachment style test?

It is a 20-statement self-reflection quiz written by Wabiro around the two dimensions used in attachment research. It has not been validated like research questionnaires such as the ECR-R, so treat it as a structured mirror rather than a measurement. Your answers are scored with fixed, published rules — the same answers always give the same result — and the method page explains every step.

What does fearful-avoidant mean?

Fearful-avoidant describes someone who scores high on both attachment anxiety and avoidance: wanting closeness and being wary of it at the same time, which often shows up as a push-pull. It is sometimes called disorganised attachment, a term that comes from research on children. It describes a pattern in your answers, not a diagnosis, and it is not a judgement about your past.

Can your attachment style change?

Yes. Studies that follow people over time find attachment is fairly stable but far from fixed: it can shift with new relationships, life events and deliberate work, and people often move toward security in relationships where the other person responds reliably. That is why Wabiro suggests retaking the test after a few months rather than treating the result as permanent.

Am I a Red Flag?

Is the Wabiro Red Flag Test really free?

Yes. The test gives you a complete result — your score, your level, your main pattern, two strengths, three patterns to watch, one action for today and a shareable card — for free, without an account. The premium report is an optional one-off purchase.

How is the red flag score calculated?

Each of the 24 questions belongs to one of eight dimensions with a public weight (boundaries 20%, jealousy and control 15%, accountability 15%, communication 15%, honesty 10%, emotional availability 10%, conflict 10%, empathy 5%). Answers are scored 0–3, protective items are reversed, each dimension gets a 0–100 score and the weighted average gives your 0–100 red flag index. The full method is on the methodology page.

What do the four result levels mean?

0–24 is “Mostly green signals”, 25–49 “A few patterns to watch”, 50–74 “Several patterns deserve attention” and 75–100 “Strong signals to examine”. A level describes how often certain behaviours show up in your answers — it is not a verdict on who you are.

What is in the premium red flag report?

A detailed analysis of all eight dimensions, an interpretation of your main and secondary patterns, your recurring behaviours and likely triggers, your strengths, communication advice, a seven-day improvement plan, practical phrases to use and a printable version to keep.

The test says I am a “red flag”. Am I a bad person?

No. A high score means some patterns show up often — patterns that are learnable, and therefore unlearnable. The result deliberately avoids labels: it names the behaviour, not the person, and gives you one concrete thing to try today.

Can someone have both red flags and green flags?

Yes — almost everyone does. A red flag is a pattern that tends to harm trust or safety; a green flag is one that builds it. The same person can be honest and accountable but jealous, or warm but avoidant in conflict. That is why the test scores eight dimensions separately and names two strengths next to the patterns to watch.

How Delusional Are You?

Does “delusional” mean a clinical condition here?

No. This is internet slang for being more optimistic than the evidence supports — usually about a crush, a plan or an ex. It is an entertainment reality check, not a mental-health assessment or diagnosis.

How is the Delusion level calculated?

Fourteen statements are scored from 0 to 3 across reading signs (30%), self-image (25%), plans (25%) and exes (20%). The weighted result is a 0–100 entertainment score. The same answers always produce the same result; it is not a psychological measure.

Is My Partner a Red Flag?

Does the partner test tell me if my partner is toxic or narcissistic?

No. It never labels a person. You describe how often you observe 24 concrete behaviours; the result sorts them into eight dimensions and four levels, and gives you one thing to observe, ask or say. Whether a relationship is right for you is not something a test can decide.

Will my partner know I took the partner test?

Not unless you tell them. Your answers stay on your device, nothing is sent anywhere by default, and there is no account or e-mail. If you create a share link, only your level, score and main signal are stored — never your answers, and never who you were describing.

Is it fair to describe my partner without them knowing?

The test only records your own observations, stays on your device and produces no verdict about the other person — it is a way to put what you see into words. Wabiro must not be used to monitor, investigate or build a case against someone; if you share the result, share it as your perspective.

Are We Compatible?

How does the two-person test work?

You answer 16 statements about yourself, then create a private invitation link and send it to the person you want to compare with. They answer the same 16 statements on their own device. As soon as they finish, you both see the alignment of your styles. Links expire after 14 days and can only be used once.

In the compatibility test, will my partner see my answers?

No. Each of you answers separately on your own device. The only thing sent to our server is one average per dimension (eight numbers between 0 and 3). The comparison shows where your styles converge and diverge — never an individual answer.

Does the result say whether we are compatible?

No. It measures the alignment of your styles: for each dimension, 100 minus the gap between your two averages. Similar styles are comfortable and different styles are workable — the number tells you where a conversation is worth having, not whether you should be together.

Can opposites be compatible?

Often, yes. Different styles — one of you plans, the other improvises; one talks a fight through tonight, the other needs a day — are workable when both people know about the difference and negotiate it. Problems come less from the gap itself than from never naming it. The test shows where your styles diverge so you can talk about those places first.

Can two people love each other and still be incompatible?

Yes. Love is a feeling; compatibility is how two lives fit day to day — time, money, conflict, plans. Strong feelings can coexist with a real mismatch on something that matters, like wanting children or where to live. A test cannot settle that, but it can show which differences are worth a calm, specific conversation.

Dating Archetype Test

What dating archetypes are there on Wabiro?

Eight: the Golden Retriever, the Iceberg, the Hopeless Romantic, the Chaos Flirt, the Slow Burn, the Protagonist, the Accidental Heartbreaker and the Strategist. You get the one your answers fit best, plus the one you are “also close to”. Each comes with strengths, things to watch and a dating tip.

Is a dating archetype the same as a personality type?

No. A personality type (or a trait score like extraversion) describes how you are across your whole life and is measured with validated questionnaires. A dating archetype is a playful label for how you approach dating specifically — pace, signals, what you look for. It can change with a new relationship or a new phase of life.

Flirting Style Test

What flirting styles does the test use?

Seven playful styles: the Subtle One, the Direct One, the Teaser, the Accidental Flirt, the Chaotic Flirt, the Selective One and the Professional Ghoster. They are inspired by research on how people signal romantic interest — which found five broad styles (traditional, physical, sincere, playful, polite) — but Wabiro’s version is for fun, not a validated inventory.

What does subtle flirting look like?

Small, deniable signals: remembering a detail and bringing it up later, finding reasons to keep a conversation going, a compliment that is specific rather than general, replying a little faster to one person than to others. Subtle flirting is easy to miss — if it matters, saying it plainly once is usually kinder than hoping it lands.

Social Battery Test

Why does socialising drain me so quickly?

Common reasons are ordinary: a naturally more introverted temperament, loud or crowded settings, being “on” for people you do not know well, poor sleep or a stressful week. None of these is a flaw. If social situations bring persistent fear rather than tiredness, that is different from a small social battery and worth talking about with a professional.

What does a low social battery score mean?

A score of 0–20 (“Low power mode”) or 21–40 (“Selective”) means your answers describe preferring small doses: fewer, chosen plans and real recovery time afterwards. It is a description of your current social energy, not a measure of how much you like people, and not social anxiety.

Can your social battery change?

Yes. Temperament is fairly stable, but the energy you have for people moves with sleep, stress, workload, the setting and who you are with. Many people score differently in a busy month than on holiday. That is why the result describes where you are now rather than labelling who you are.

Why Am I Still Single?

What patterns can keep someone single?

The quiz looks at eight behavioural patterns: keeping people at a distance (the Fortress), choosing unavailable people (the Unavailable Magnet), leaving early (the Early Exit), hiding interest (the Poker Face), seeking validation over connection (the Applause Seeker), dodging serious talks (the Deflector), changing what you want (the Moving Target) — and being single on purpose (the Solo Season), which is a full result, not a problem.

Can a quiz really tell me why I am single?

Not fully. Being single has reasons no quiz can see — timing, where you live, grief, what you want right now. The quiz names a tendency in how you describe your own dating behaviour, with one concrete thing to try. Treat it as a mirror with a sense of humour, not an explanation of your life.

Chat analysis

Are my messages uploaded to Wabiro?

No. The export is opened and analysed inside your browser, on your device. Messages, names, phone numbers and the group name are never sent to our servers, to analytics or to Stripe. If you create a share link or buy an unlock, we store only aggregate numbers and labels — with names replaced the way you choose.

How do I export a WhatsApp chat?

Open the chat, tap the chat or group name (iPhone) or the ⋮ menu (Android), choose “Export chat”, then “Without media”. Save the .txt or .zip file and drop it here. Exporting without media keeps the file small; photos and voice notes are not needed.

Can I analyse a chat other people are in?

Only a chat you are part of and have the right to use. Before analysing, you confirm that — and that the result is for entertainment and self-reflection. Never use it to harass, monitor or judge someone, or for decisions about work, housing or health. Share results with the group, not about it.

Is this made by WhatsApp?

No. Wabiro is independent and not affiliated with WhatsApp or Meta. It reads the plain-text export that WhatsApp lets anyone create from their own chats.

Group Chat Court

What does Group Chat Court measure?

Only observable activity: who sends how many messages, when, who starts conversations, who double-texts, who asks questions, emoji use, streaks and silences. Awards and the verdict come from documented thresholds on those numbers. It never reads meaning into who likes or dislikes whom.

What is free and what is in the Full Case File?

Free: the group verdict, headline stats, five awards, an interaction snapshot and a share card. The optional Full Case File (one-time payment) adds every award, a card per member, the full timeline, pair dynamics, streak and silence records and the complete story deck — all still calculated on your device.

Situationship Autopsy

Can it tell me whether they like me?

No. It measures what the conversation shows — who starts, who replies how fast, who asks questions, how gaps get restarted. Messaging effort is not the same as feelings or intent, and no chat export can tell you what someone thinks or whether a relationship will work.

How is reply time measured?

An export does not say which message answers which. Wabiro approximates: when one person writes right after the other within the same conversation session, the time between the two counts as a reply. Long gaps start a new session and are not counted as slow replies.

How Rare Are You?

Does it tell me how rare I am in the world?

No. Wabiro does not have data about everyone, so it never claims a global ranking. Your result is a profile and a combination of traits. Once at least 200 people have completed the same version, it also shows how often your profile and combination appear among Wabiro users who completed that version — and says exactly that.

What is a trait combination?

Your two strongest profiles, read together. Some pairs sit on opposite ends of the same question — a planner who also loves last-minute chaos — and the result points those out. That is a property of the questions, not a statistic; real frequencies only appear once the sample is large enough.

Dating Pool Calculator

Where do the numbers come from?

From official statistics for each supported country — population by age and sex, marital status, height, income and education — each with its source, year and definition listed on the methodology page. Countries without trustworthy data are not offered.

Is the result an exact count of people?

No. It is a modelled estimate. Some filters are combined as if they were independent, which they are not always (income and education, for example), so the result is shown as a range, with the assumptions spelled out. It says nothing about who would actually be interested.

What’s My Yellow Flag?

What is a yellow flag in dating?

A yellow flag is a dating or relationship behaviour worth noticing or discussing, but it is not automatically a dealbreaker. Context, repetition and how someone responds to a calm conversation matter.

What is the difference between a yellow flag and a red flag?

A yellow flag is a behaviour to notice while you learn more; a red flag points to a concerning pattern that affects trust, respect or safety. Repetition and the response when it is raised help distinguish them.

What is the difference between a yellow flag and a beige flag?

A yellow flag may create relationship friction and can be worth discussing. A beige flag is a harmless quirk that says little about how the relationship works.

Are yellow flags always bad?

No. They are context-dependent habits or situations to notice, not automatic proof that something is wrong. A conversation may clarify what is happening.

Your Other Life

Is Your Other Life a prediction of my future?

No. It is interactive fiction written by people at Wabiro: you make six choices for another version of you, and the story that follows is assembled from authored scenes and endings. Nothing is inferred about you, your real life or your future, and no AI writes or guesses anything during the game. Treat it like a good what-if conversation, not a forecast.

Do my choices really change the story?

Yes. Each of the six decisions changes a later scene (the work you can take depends on where you woke up, the turning point depends on that work, and so on) and the ending: its name, its twelve-year timeline, the choice that defined it, its trade-off and its strength. There are 729 possible paths. The same choices always give the same story, so you can come back to it.

Can I change just one choice?

Yes. From your ending, pick any decision, choose another option and the story is rewritten from there — the other choices stay as they were. Wabiro then shows exactly what changed in your other life. If you come back later, you can also replay only the last three decisions, from the turning point.

What does the paid unlock add?

Your ending is complete and free. The optional one-time unlock adds three more fully written parallel lives for your run (what would have happened with other work from year one, with another answer to the turning point, and with another reply to the message from your real life, followed twenty years on), a map of every choice side by side, and story cards to save. You see a real excerpt before deciding. It is one payment, no subscription, and the price is shown before checkout.

What does Wabiro keep about my story?

Your choices and your ending stay on your device. If you buy the unlock, the server keeps only a one-way fingerprint of the story version and your six choices, so the purchase reopens that exact story — on this device, or on another one after signing in with the e-mail used at checkout. A share link stores only the name of your other life. Analytics never receive your choices or your story.

How Normal Are You?

Is this a personality test, like How Rare Are You?

No. How Rare Are You? is a questionnaire that builds a personality profile. How Normal Are You? is a game about small everyday habits — the stairs you count, the alarms you set — answered with one tap each. The habit map is a playful summary of your own answers on five axes, not a type, a diagnosis or a measure of what is normal.

Where do the “Wabiro players also chose this” figures come from?

Only from players who tapped “Add my answers” after their result. Figures are counted per version of the game and stay hidden until that version has 200 contributions; a choice picked by fewer than 10 people never gets a percentage. Until then you see “Not enough responses yet”. They describe Wabiro players who chose to contribute — not people in general — and Wabiro never invents or estimates them.

What happens if I add my answers?

The server adds one to the counter of each choice you made, and one to the number of contributions for this version. It does not store your set of answers, a row about you, the time, your IP address or any identifier. It is optional, separate from analytics consent, and your result is the same whether you contribute or not.

How does comparing with a friend work?

Create a link from your result: it holds only your habit map (five coarse positions), never your answers. Your friend plays on their own device and then sees both maps side by side, where you match and where you are furthest apart. You can delete the link at any time.

Are my answers sent anywhere?

Not unless you choose to contribute. The game and your habit map run on your device. Analytics only count steps such as “started” or “finished”, never which answer you tapped.

The Decision Game

How is my decision style worked out?

Every choice leans on one or more of five dimensions — curiosity, caution, fairness, loyalty and independence — as written in the public method. Your portrait comes from the two dimensions your six choices leaned on most. The surprising trade-off is a pair of dimensions you resolved one way in one scene and the other way in another. It is a tally of this game, not a psychological measurement.

Is there a right answer?

No. Every option is a reasonable thing a person might do, with its own consequence. Nobody is scored as good or bad, and the game never tells you what you should have done.

What does a friend see when I send a challenge?

Your decision-style portrait and one scene to play. They never see your other choices. Your own choice in that scene is shown only if you switch on “Reveal my choice after they answer”, and only once they have answered.

Can I see what other players chose?

Only from players who explicitly add their choices after a game, counted per version, and only once a scene has 200 contributing players; a choice picked by fewer than 10 of them shows no percentage. Until then every scene shows its written consequence instead. No figure is ever invented.

Are my choices stored?

They stay on your device. The server only learns them if you choose to contribute, and then it only adds one to each choice counter — no set of answers, no identifier. Analytics count steps, never choices.
