How is HBDI® Digital different from the HBDI® Mobile App?
The Mobile App lets you share your profile as a graphic on social media and "guesstimate" another person's profile. HBDI® Digital runs in your web browser, so there's nothing to download.
Is there a printable version?
Yes. HBDI® Digital includes a two-page summary report you can download as a PDF and print. Open it from the left-side menu in HBDI® Digital or from the Thinker Portal.
Does HBDI® Digital include the content from the HBDI® booklet?
Many elements of the booklet are built into HBDI® Digital, including FAQs that cover key points from section B, plus application tips and explanatory notes throughout. To read about other profile codes, use Preference Code Search on the Thinker Portal. It's available after results are unlocked.
What happened to education, occupation, and hobbies?
HBDI® Digital doesn't include the Education, Occupation, Hobbies, and Twenty Questions sections of the HBDI® survey. That data is still on the HBDI® Data Summary Report. To open it, click Print Summary.
Which languages is HBDI® Digital available in?
The HBDI® assessment is available in 16 languages. The Thinker Portal and HBDI® Digital are available in 6: English (US), English (International), French, German, Chinese Simplified, and Spanish.
