The images of a cheering crowd with hands in the air has become annoyingly cliche for social apps. Nearly as cliche as About pages with circular images of the employees.
Must... find... something... to... complain... about!!
I think this is a great app and an interesting idea, but one of the few projects where I could see the name being a problem for traction and success. A more generic name, which doesnt associate neccessarily with parties and drinking, would enable more people to take this app serious. And well, like for all social apps, I really hope that more plattforms are very close on your roadmap =) Why wasnt a web-based approach…
> A more generic name, which doesnt associate neccessarily with parties and drinking, would enable more people to take this app serious. +1 Before I clicked the link and watched the video, my first thought was that it was something related to AA or sobriety in general. I can see how this may be a problem for traction and for people telling their friends about it. Until someone explains how it works a large number of…
The color scheme of black and gold adds on to that inebriated vibe. A more generic name might appeal to a broader audience, unless your app is indeed targeted at the party and drinking crowd.
Write the whole pitch/description in text, because otherwise you'll lose the people who can't or won't be able to watch the video: people at work, libraries, auditoriums, etc.
The "hook" for this app seems to be not just disappearing content but also disappearing "friends" (impermanence is hot!). It's interesting how much this must hamper any viral uptake. The app itself is deleting the overlap you need to prompt adoption. what are the odds that two people who are grinding on the dance floor both have the app installed waiting to connect? What are the odds I am going to want to take the time to publish a vibe knowing I have very few permenant contacts?
Looks interesting, kinda like Snapchat's My Story on steroids. I would suggest redoing the voiceover with a better mic and less gain, there is some obvious clipping going on there. Also, cut the music track down a bit, and maybe pick one without vocals. It was kinda hard to understand at points, but maybe that's just my rock-concert ears.
Why do startups refuse to hire professional design/branding people at the early stage? when we can help make your idea into a real winner?????? Sorry but come on, "It's too expensive" is totally not a good enough excuse. Even for bootstrappers. Not if you hope to earn a living/funding with your idea. If the idea's that good, the expense of using a real professional is well worth the investment. And if the idea is less than good...let us work with you to get to a good idea. All designers should include fact-finding/question-asking-probing and positioning statement writing as a basic part of the service. That's what the major multinational design firms (the ones that work for the top global companies) do.
