App doesn't work for me.
I think generally it's a good idea to avoid excessive adverbs and adjectives, but sometimes I consciously choose to use not even just 'very', but 'very, very', in cases where the simplicity of language and the excessive repetition feels appropriate to the situation. Usually in very informal online speech.
'Very' serves an important purpose, but it's most effective at it when you restrict it to situations where you absolutely need it.
