Justin, I love the concept of Whale, but many of us don't have iOs phones. Could you run a more traditional AMA at some point?When will there be a web player or an Android app for Whale? I feel that many people in the early user base for Whale are being alienated here.

They have an Android engineer position open, so they're not completely ignoring that segment of the market.

Sorry - this is really annoying I know. You can watch the videos on the web here https://askwhale.com/p/5efd87/ama-justin-kan

I wish I had a better answer than "we're still figuring things out and I don't want to duplicate work yet", but that's where I'm at. We are a really small team (1 designer, 3 engineers, 1 community manager, 1 ceo, 1 professional snapchatter (me)) so right now we are conserving our meager engineering resources until we really believe that it is worth replicating on Android. But we will eventually.

Last time I looked there wasn't a way to view on the web, that at least works for me. Appreciate the reply, good luck on Whale and Zero-F
