Me and some friends just released a new app. It is matchmaking tool for thinkers and makers. It's a MVP(Native iOS - https://itunes.apple.com/app/id883667173)

We would love some feedback on the app before launching and going into the growth state. You can also read more about our vision here: http://www.makemove.se/

Have a nice one!

I would like to use it but of course I can't (iOS). You should really launch these kind of MVP in a normal website accessible to as many browsers to have maximum audience. Here you do the opposite and target a small percentage of the world that uses iphones.

I have to agree - I know this opinion is unpopular but there are some things for which computers are still ideally suited, and this seems like one of them. Would I want to restrict my audience to the 15% or so of people who use iOS? Why does this need to be an app at all, for that matter?

I would enthusiastically sign up for this, except I don't have an iPhone.

Interesting project, but iOS only? Is there any reason behind that? I don't use it and don't intend to (as the majority of other geeks I know). Webapp would be a much better choice imho.

For all the awesome people with android: Right now we will focus solely on iOS and then come back with an amazing Android app when we feel that we are getting more close to our vision with iOS. The reason for that is that we are small team and we had to pick one device.

Thanks for your support!
