Some landing page feedback: consider putting a "text me a link to download" option on your home page. A lot of people drop off when they click an iTunes link on their computer—they don't then go to their phone, search in the app store, and download your app. http://linktexting.com is a great solution for this
Interesting idea. I'd like to see where this goes.
Just checked the database stats and it's sort of two orders of magnitude more than what it used to handle during our little internal beta. I hope that everything is not too broken and on fire. On a more personal note, I want to say that as a self-taught coder, to see something of yours suddenly used by so many people is hugely inspiring (if a bit scary!).
Thanks the Product Hunt community for the kind words & feedback and users & api Gods willing we hope to see this little app blossom into an awesome tool, if not platform!
@isiyfa@dan_e_gray Some more serious feedback, having given it a spin:
You need the other person to have installed Popsicle to be able to chat with them.
Does this really need to be the case? Can't Popsicle reach people with a DM and begin a conversation there whether or not they have the app? (you can always just make the first message say 'sent with @Popsiclehq).
Inviting someone onto Popsicle uses a public message, rather than a DM or @ reply.
I get that you want people to be visibly sharing the app, but as an early adopter I am not going to flood my feed with these tweets as I try to get my network on board. Making it a straight @ reply would be a lot more appealing - if not a DM that starts the conversation anyway.
@dan_e_gray Hmmm, you have a very good point here. Thank you for the honest feedback and we will seriously consider making the invites more private. ☺️
@dan_e_gray Yeah, to be honest we have had quite a bit of debate about that (private vs spaminess). In the end of the day it all came about to our current marketing budget being essentially good for about two espressos so we gave in to the dark side. I believe the way we were going to go was keep the invites public for a while until the app gets some (any!) traction and then switch to private ones.
I do love the DM-as-first-chat-message idea, although I suspect there might be some awkwardness when it comes to groups chats and future media attachments Twitter's DM doesn't support. Will certainly look into it though!
