#382This looks great! I'm definitely trying it out. My only feedback for you is this: Charge more. You're undercutting yourself a lot by just charging $6 per user. At the very least double that to $12 and it would still be a great price for the value you're offering.
Disagree with this. Companies like Microsoft, and Zoho provide these types of tools as part of a broader subscription. For $5/user, I can get email, MS Teams, cloud storage, a tool similar to this, plus tons more. Why would I pay $12/user just for this tool?
What MS product in 365 Business Basic does what this does?

#383Does it have offline support? This is the one thing I'm missing the most about Notion, Miro, Google Calendar, and all of this - offline support. In German trains, I'm offline, on flights, I'm often offline; while traveling, I'm often offline. Offline capabilities are often neglected.
It's rare to see offline support in a web app for a few reasons: LocalStorage is easy to use but too limited at 50Mb. WebSQL got deprecated by FireFox because of secuirty issues years ago ( albeit is still somewhat supported in Chrome ). The FileSystem API looked promising, and then google killed it. IndexedDb is the only option, it's slow on writes, therefore requiring major hacks like absurd-sql to be performant. I…
> WebSQL got deprecated by FireFox because of secuirty issues years ago ( albeit is still somewhat supported in Chrome ).
Major technical corrections on this:
WebSQL was never implemented by Firefox. It was an experimental thing that Chrome and Safari shipped, but Firefox refused to because it was the wrong direction since it was certain to in the future cause either major compatibility or functionality problems. The Chrome and Safari developers agreed with this assessment, and so the draft was discontinued, and the two implementations deprecated. Safari finally removed its three years ago, and Chrome has begun the process of removing its this year.
There were no security issues whatsoever—it’s just that what had been made was unsuitable for standardisation, and no one was willing to do the work that would be required to make it suitable for standardisation perhaps because there was no consensus that it would still be a good idea in that form. All up, the WebSQL story is pretty much “it seemed like a good idea at the time because people want the result, and we implemented and shipped it because it was really easy, but then we stepped back and thought things through and realised the entire approach was a mistake”.

#384Interesting! Would you consider offering an API so third parties can create extensions?
I’ve developed an extension that I’m trying to make compatible with as many product(ivity) tools as possible and would love to add yours to the list.

#385Another productivity founder joining the discussion. Congratulations on your launch! I built https://www.workast.com with similar motivations, but our go-to-market strategy was to focus on teams that use Slack to communicate, and we still do today. While there is tons of competition out there, the market is big enough for all of us to share. It is a bumpy ride but today we are a profitable business. All the best!
Thanks for sharing. Yes, the Slack community is huge, and I can see a demand for your product. Cheers,

#386I would strongly suggest not having password complexity or length requirements except for perhaps a minimum length of 16+. Anything else is additional user frustration and serves no real purpose given that you're presumably not storing passwords in plaintext in the year 2022.
Thanks for your feedback. We'll consider making it a bit easier for users.

We do consider offering APIs, but probably not very soon, since there are a lot of essential features we need to add first.

#388When I tried to sign up, I've run into issue where your password prompt[1] would require uppercase character, a number and a special symbol... While in my opinion my password satisfied that requirement, your app didn't accept it. If you don't consider period and underscore as a special symbol -- you should mention list of special symbols you accept. [1]: https://imgur.com/a/JvsXVIN
Thanks for your feedback. We'll make it more clear to users.

#389Congrats on the successful "Show HN". I'm sure you are getting some quality visits out of it. Apart from the feedback here which also very important.
I'm wondering, would you bother verify Upbase.io on SaaSHub? Pls ping me if you do so, and I will get it featured on the newsletter there. Cheers!
