Welcome to Solve It Now!

Professional troubleshooting methodologies with optional AI enhancement

This is the official documentation site for the Solve It Now! application available on Apple’s App Store as a multi-platform app for iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and visionOS.

About the App

Solve It Now! is a systematic problem-solving application that guides users through proven professional troubleshooting methodologies. Built on frameworks used in manufacturing, engineering, and scientific research, the app provides structured tools for analyzing complex problems methodically. AI assistance is available to enhance your analysis, but the core value lies in the systematic approach itself.

Key Features

🔍 Professional Problem-Solving Framework

  • Problem Statement: Define your problem clearly using the "Object/Defect" format
  • Systematic Investigation: Answer WHAT, WHERE, WHEN, and EXTENT questions to fully understand the problem scope
  • IS/IS NOT Analysis: Identify what is and isn't part of the problem to narrow down root causes

📊 Structured Data Collection

  • Guided Workflow: Step-by-step process that builds understanding incrementally
  • Dimensional Analysis: Comprehensive investigation across multiple problem dimensions
  • Pattern Recognition: Identify root causes through systematic boundary definition

🤖 Optional AI Enhancement

  • Multiple AI Workflows: Choose between Public AI, Private AI (no third-party training), or System Prompt workflows
  • Solution Suggestions: Get AI-generated potential solutions based on your structured analysis
  • Diagnostic Questions: Receive follow-up questions to further investigate and validate solutions

⚡ Interactive Analysis Tools

  • Solution Evaluation: Accept, reject, or mark solutions as "not sure" based on your assessment
  • Progressive Refinement: Answer diagnostic questions to drill deeper into the problem
  • Evidence-Based Decisions: Make informed choices backed by systematic analysis

� Multi-Platform Experience

  • iOS & iPadOS: Optimized touch interface for iPhone and iPad
  • macOS: Full desktop experience with keyboard shortcuts and window management
  • visionOS: Immersive spatial computing interface for Apple Vision Pro
  • Universal Purchase: Buy once, use across all your Apple devices

📚 Built-in Examples

  • Donut Factory Problem: Learn from a complex manufacturing scenario with scaling issues
  • Computer Crash Analysis: Explore a real-world technical problem involving MacBook hardware/software interactions
  • Educational Content: Understand problem-solving methodologies through worked examples

Problem-Solving Methodology

The app implements a systematic approach based on proven troubleshooting frameworks used in manufacturing, engineering, and scientific research. The methodology works with or without AI assistance:

  1. Problem Definition - Clearly state what’s wrong with what object using professional “Object/Defect” format
  2. Specification Analysis - Document WHAT, WHERE, WHEN, and EXTENT details systematically
  3. IS/IS NOT Boundary Analysis - Define problem boundaries to eliminate false leads and identify patterns
  4. Solution Development - Generate solutions through structured analysis (optionally enhanced by AI)
  5. Validation Process - Evaluate solutions and test hypotheses through guided investigation
  6. Root Cause Identification - Iterate until you find the underlying cause and effective solution
