I'm intrigued by invisible apps, especially SMS-based bots, because they're so easy to start using. Something like this is especially useful in big group or event settings where the time/energy to download an app from the App Store might be too distracting.

@rrhoover it is extremely interesting, but there is something to be said about having the app on the phone that reminds you its there. the SMS bot has less friction to use, but will it continue to be used? I typically have a hard time remembering, especially when the conversation falls on my convo list.

@harrytawil We are going to remind users occasionally of their civic duty. 😊

@rrhoover I think we'll be seeing an explosion of invisible apps across different platforms over the next two to three years. (More than we already are!)
