On the app's first screenshot, I'd put pictures that tell someone's story instead of sunsets and clouds (and definitely not any stock photos). If people are to download the app to peek into one's life, that life should be worth peeking into. Kind of like Secret. Most people download it to read someone else's secrets, not to share their own.
I was willing to download it, but the first line "Note: Works only with iPhone and iPad. Does not work with iPod Touch" prevented me. I have a modern iPod touch (same generation as iPhone 5). Why won't your app work on it?
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Yeah, and that's another thing when the app is new. It's kind of a human nature to quickly write a bad review, than a good one. I'm in touch with the App Store on the removal of that review, because it doesn't accurately represent the app's functionality. Back to the main point... I do have 186 broadcasts, and each of these broadcast stories have 1 or more pics. I love taking pics, and sharing with the world, and I h…
i'd say the most damning thing i see here is that you are indeed getting feedback, but your answer is basically "sorry, you people are wrong." your response to a bad review is to try to get apple to remove it? good luck with that. even if you could, which is doubtful, your response should be to figure out that guy's crash and fix it. also, why on earth would you exclude the ipod touch? it has a camera, and therefore…
I didn't mean it that way, anyways, sorry if you think that way.
If the app's got problem, sure, I'll fix it. But I've tested it on multiple devices, and there are definitely a few people who have used it, and it has worked. I didn't test on ipod touch, so I can't say for sure if it'd work on it. I had built it mainly for iPhone, but the way it works is if you select device family 1, ipod touch gets included. And this person's review says something like ipod user.
So, the app could've crashed, because it was ran on a device I didn't build for? idk. I'll be taking a closer look next time.
Thanks anyways.
According to the app site, the product is in Beta and you're only "allowing" Mashable readers to use it. I'm not a Mashable reader, so punt. Also, how is this at version 2.0.3 already with no version history?
Thanks.
Not every app 'clicks' instantly with users. Sending them directly to itunes might not be the best way to convert them. Have you tried sending folks to a landing page first (so can prime them on the idea, show them a cool video, etc)? The other advantage of this method is that once users are on your site (instead of the itunes store), you can get better analytics and behavior tracking (to understand when/why/where us…
Thanks for the feedback.
When I open the app the only description presented is this line: > Note: Works only with iPhone and iPad. Does not work with iPod Touch. Not sure why App Store included that. I'm looking into this, thanks for understanding. So literally the most important single line of the description, the only line which people can see without hitting the "...more" button is there just to avoid technical support enquiries! That's j…
Broad stokes: consider a rebrand. Re-think it yourself or even better bring in a good marketers to figure the best user case from a USERS POV. Find a usercase that can make you standout and bring a real benefit to someones world. Brand and describe around this scenario. Only then go to work on your distribution strategy. Also be willing to buy some initial distribution. Popular news sites and similar are blasted by new apps. While try to get on their radar, don't rely on this.
Maybe this pizza tastes good, maybe this pizza tastes bad. But what if I don't really want pizza at all?
I don't see one reason for using this app. Even if I wanted to build up an anonymous online profile which people could follow, I'd probably use one of the other networks out there which have a greater reach. You are really not offering anything different which makes me want to use your app.
Good, USEFUL, apps do not require a pitch by the founder to get someone to sign up. The product needs to sell itself.
Just from looking at your app on iTunes, the biggest flag for me is: Why would I want to use THIS when I have Instagram? What problem does THIS app solve that others don't (if any)?
Someone else mentioned it here, but I've gotta ask: At what point did you hear someone say that they really needed something like this in their lives vs something like this 'has a place'?
