Espresso Chat - Productive conversations start here

@robbyedesign agree. As far as I understood, you can do everything that Espresso Chat do in some other messengers like Facebook Messenger, Telegram or WhatsApp and you don't need additional app and account.

@suholet And literally the entire world has Facebook so that makes life to much easier. Imagine how hard it would be to get everyone to download an app. Plus with no desktop/browser app you can never use you computer. I feel someone should try and solve this in a better way!

@robbyedesign @suholet Not literally.

@robbyedesign This app has some unique features not had by some of these other platforms (AFAIK). Plus, being a productivity app kinda helps separate work and play (like Slack); I personally don't like having conversations that even resemble productivity on Facebook Messenger. Also it's pretty beautiful!

@robbyedesign the biggest feature this seems to have is highlighting messages -- the equivalent of starring in Slack. It also has a confusing nested design with rooms + channels, kind of like a bunch of Slack instances + channels all in the same app.

@chrismessina i download it but didnt get the verification code

@chrismessina That's how I discovered this app a while ago, too! The design drew me in. Guess ads do work.

@chrismessina "Curiously I discovered this via an ad on Instagram" < IG Ad campaign performance not too shabby then; a Chris Messina post and top of PH!

@chrismessina just my two cents: http://www.wesay.co/post/1422523...

@chrismessina App Install ads work :)

@icco stay tuned!

@riser_spy thanks!

@yoavanaki AFAIK it doesn't do it forcefully, you just have the option to invite others via SMS.

@drrza awesome analysis, many of your points are in the pipeline...one of them in particular we missed and are grateful for

@hermanschutte thanks for the comment, we've thought about this a bunch, interested to hear why you prefer email.

@jguedalia seems less invasive than SMS. Although SMS would probably be better for your growth as it requires more of an immediate action, instead of being on a "do it later" list as email mostly is.
