Test the Icebreakers app and report what breaks

Spend a few minutes playing with the Icebreakers app on your phone and laptop. Generate a few icebreakers, try the filters and the hearts, and note anything that breaks, confuses you or feels off. Send your notes back however is easiest - a list, screenshots or a voice note.
