DealUp - Social challenges with friends, proof, and follow-through
by•
DealUp turns private goals into public or friend-based challenges with rules, proof, and visible follow-through. This launch adds clearer public challenge pages so new users can understand the format before they install and join.

We built DealUp because a lot of motivation apps stop at reminders. The real problem for us was follow-through. DealUp lets you start a challenge, invite friends, post proof, and keep the result visible instead of burying everything in a private tracker. It works well for things like being on time, cutting screen time, saving money, or staying off sugar for a week. We would love feedback on two things: does the category make sense quickly, and which challenge format feels most naturally shareable?

The accountability angle is what sold me, having friends actually see my progress made skipping a day feel way worse than just forgetting. Surprised how easy it was to set up a small savings challenge and stick with it for two weeks straight.

If you're checking DealUp out cold, the fastest way to understand it is through the public challenge pages rather than the App Store listing.
Would love feedback on which one explains the idea faster.

@seherkrmacmvsb Really appreciate this. The accountability piece is exactly the part we were trying to make feel more real than another private tracker.
Curious which example clicked faster for you: savings, screen time, or something else?
