I'm curious to try this out, but I can't justify spending $97 for Nerva without any kind of trial period. A promise of a full refund isn't enough, unfortunately.

I'd love to learn more about that as we though the money-back guarantee would help assuage hesitation around trying the program - why doesn't it?

If you do want a free trial the mobile app store subscription has a free trial but doesn't come with a money-back guarantee (Apple's control).

In your view, what's more compelling - a free trial or money-back guarantee?

A money-back guarantee isn't compelling for me, for several reasons. First, I know that I would feel guilty asking for money back, and I want to avoid being in that situation. Second, I don't fully trust money-back guarantees. Third, that's ~$100 that I need to part with when I might see within 1 hour that the product is not a fit.

A free trial would be far more compelling.

FYI I'd be using this on Android.

Thanks for this feedback, it's really helpful! it's something we're thinking a lot about atm so this is great.

If you're interested, you can download the app from the Play Store and try the program with a 7-day free trial. Let us know what you think.
