@ mirthlab - thanks a lot for your feedback.

we tried to make it as simple as possible, thanks :)

reg phone/email: we're learning the same thing. we opted to keep it phone only so it felt "magical" for the people that did sign up. we should probably allow email sign up.

reg app: for now we take the first app that is found on the page. we could just as easily put all the apps in your Quu if multiple ones were found... or ask the user which ones they want to add. i guess we'll see how often/where/why that comes up.

reg fake #: yup, on it.

reg Apt.ly: really cool! i love how you're showing the details of the app right there for the user to see. i guess there's a balance between quick/effective.

where are you based? we should def talk in more depth off HN.

thanks again for the feedback - satjot (satjot at appquu)

That "we" is painful to read. I had a similar service earlier this year, initial reaction was positive, but everyone signed up and never used it again.

Me included.

My take on it? it's easier to pull up the app store and search for whatever than it is to open safari, load the webpage, then click and wait for the app store to load anyway.

Long lists would work? I thought so too, but then people don't like the back and forth between safari and app store.

Saying that, SMS was a feature I didn't have.

Good luck all the same, and do make a 1 month later update if you have time!

"That "we" is painful to read." - what do you mean?

Maybe for the phone number you can wait until they hit the "Send me a Text Message" button, then ask for it there. Since it's something they want to do at that moment it makes sense. Then you can attach the number to their account. They might be more apt to do it if it's obvious why you need the number.

I'm based out of Honolulu, Hawaii but I'm also in California every few months for work. Feel free to hit me up anytime: mark [at] mirthlab.com.
