@flapitcounter, I was about to order FlapIt but than I realized that the backend is on your server (https://www.flapit.com/de/flapmenow). So let's image you're going out of business next year (and I really don't hope that for you - it's just what sometimes happens to startups) my counter is un-configurable and useless. Is there any way how I can cut any tie to your infrastructure once I own the hardware?

@flapitcounter I guess that's a no? Do you have any plans to change that?

I have a Smiirl and while I love the product, this FlapIt seems to address the significant issues Smiirl has such as no API and support for only Facebook. It's a similar price so if I was going to buy another one (and I might), I'd give this a try.

@rafiqmaniar Are you still happy with the Flappt? I am not getting any support with my broken flaps. Very sad....

@chrisavignon It would be a better difference, if they is any service. Smirl is still in business...are you ? I am not getting any service, feedback or support...since month...

Love the idea here. We all know users love social proof, so bringing that front and centre to the offline world makes total sense. Plus I love the old school flap mechanism over a digital counter, this helps reinforce the real world aspect for me. Not sure it's worth the price at £299, but would definitely be interested if I was a shop owner and the price was a bit more reasonable. Cool product 👌

I saw a similar project on Kickstarter about a year ago, but this one is really special because it uses not just a digital screen but the physical flap mechanism which is really cool. I guess I can follow and unfollow my account each second just to see how the mechanism works again and again :) Good luck, guys!

This is pretty cool and maybe this is thinking too broadly but I would love if something like this existed that could be integrated with an arbitrary webhook so I could display data custom to my operation, like sales or signups to my own app etc.

@chrisavignon doable as in something you can already do with this device or as in something that could be added to this device with software or as in something a future device could support?

Guess they are out of business ?!?

Pros:

Good and innovative idea

Cons:

Breaks very easily. No service, no contact, no support since months. No possibility to get in contact with the team. O

Love the product but I can think of a lot better uses for that kind of money. Regardless, what's the marketing premise? That people will see it in your store and then follow you on social media to see it tick over? If so, then so what? It's basically an expensive sign that says "Follow us on social media." I'd rather give them a reason to follow (and *engage* with) you and raffle off that $450 in "store" credit" to one of our followers. Or something. Again, love the product execution and would absolutely buy it and use it as a dynamic "cow bell" in our offices to keep track of new signups, but I don't buy the marketing side of it. But I could be (and often am) missing something. :)
