Vantage is a small app, so this is a short page. If your answer is not here, write to hello@vantageself.com and a person will reply.

How do I draw a card?

Choose a deck, or tap the gold gem to have one chosen for you. Drag through the face-down spread, then press Pick card. Shuffle as much as you like first. Shuffling never selects or reveals anything.

Can I draw more than one card a day?

No. One card a day is the whole idea. Your card is yours until midnight on your device, and the next one is available after that. There is no reroll, on purpose. A question you can swap out is a question you do not sit with.

What is the deeper question?

Every card ships with a second question written for that exact card, not pulled from a pool. Go deeper reveals it. Answer the first one honestly before you look, or the second one has nothing to work with.

Why did my streak not break when I skipped a day?

Your streak counts the rhythm you chose, not the calendar. If you committed to weekdays, a weekend off never breaks it. Vantage also holds savers, which cover an occasional missed day automatically. Change your rhythm any time in Settings, under Streak and reminders.

What is the Decisions deck, and why does Pick for me skip it?

Pick for me draws from the five everyday decks. Decisions is the sixth, and it waits until you have an actual decision in front of you. Open it deliberately.

Will I see the same question twice?

Not until you have been through its deck. Within a deck a card cannot return before the deck is exhausted, and the seven most recent draws stay excluded even across that boundary. There are 181 questions across 6 decks.

Where are my answers saved?

Nowhere. Vantage has no journal and no text field. It records which card you drew on which day so it can count your streak, and nothing else. See the privacy policy.

Do I need an account or an internet connection?

Neither. Every question ships inside the app. Vantage works on a plane, and there is no account to create.

My reminder is not arriving.

Check that notifications are allowed for Vantage in your system settings, then set the time again under Settings, Streak and reminders. Reminders are scheduled by your phone, so a phone that was off at the reminder time will not show one late.

Will my history move to a new phone?

Your history lives on the device, so a new phone starts a fresh record. Deleting the app deletes the history with it, and there is no copy anywhere to restore from.

Is Vantage free?

Yes. No subscription, no purchases, no ads.

Can I suggest a question?

Please do. Send it to hello@vantageself.com. Questions are written by hand, and good ones are welcome.
