Stop an experiment
Plans change. You can stop a running experiment any time and start another one whenever you like.
Steps
Step 1 of 4
What happens when you stop
- The experiment ends today. The nights so far move under Finished on the Experiments page with what they showed.
- If it had enough kept nights, you still get a verdict on the results page.
- If you stop it on the day you started it, before any night has passed, it's removed completely.
Good to know. Stopped by mistake? Tap Undo on the "Experiment stopped" message right after.
Starting a different one instead
You don't have to stop first. Pick another experiment and tap Stop '...' and start this. The running one stops and the new one starts tonight.
Questions
Where's the Stop button?
On the Running now card on the Experiments page, and on the experiment's own page while it's running. Tap the Experiment card on Today to get there.
Will a stopped experiment show on Today?
Only if it reached a verdict. A stopped experiment without one doesn't get the Experiment finished card.
Can I restart the same experiment?
Yes. Start it again from the Experiments page. It runs a fresh 14 nights.
