every time something like this comes up, I feel like it's a valiant but futile effort. these platforms change their API all the time and have so many exclusive features that these type of apps just turn into feed aggregators (since you can't even post to some platforms). the generation of heavy social media users don't care that they need different apps. so why would we need this?
Mark Spivey
@thejeremycarson where's the evidence on your second statement?
Chris Messina
@ausonio @thejeremycarson how about Google Buzz, for starters?
Anup Dhirwan
@thejeremycarson True that users dont mind checking into different apps for their different needs and its hard to match native app experience, This one is still good enough to check the updates at least and later decide how much time it saves.
Samir Doshi
@thejeremycarson Such a good point - the api management is a behemoth of maintenance
Arthur Chang
@samir_doshi @thejeremycarson it's not as terrible as it seems. Unless you're dealing with really terrible API teams, the updates needed are usually pretty simple, and old deprecated API calls aren't usually removed for a long time (unless for security reasons). I think it's a misconception that api management and maintenance is a huge time suck. It really isn't compared to all the other problems that come with relying on API's (such as getting popular enough to get access cut off without notice).

This looks great! Design's beautiful and it seems clean and fit for purpose (the icon reminds me a little of Last.fm but that may just be me). A quick question before I buy, is commenting supported? I'd love to get rid of my individual apps and combine into one but to do this, commenting would be a must-have feature. Otherwise looks great!
Ben Gray
@ryanstubbs You can comment on Facebook and reply to tweets. However, due to the api, there's no commenting on Instagram posts unfortunately.
Samir Doshi
@ryanstubbs Nice design --- who would be your main competitors? I know aggregating all content under one umbrella has been attempted before but this looks very polished, nice work.
Ben Gray
@samir_doshi @ryanstubbs I would say there are a couple of other aggregators that (in my opinion) aren't as good. Otherwise, I would say that we are a more simple, accessible service similar to that of HootSuite and Buffer. They're not necessarily competitors as they're more targeted at businesses rather than consumers or posters like SoFlow
Ryan Stubbs
@bcgray00 Yeah, I agree. The issues I've always found with those type of apps is that they're great for interacting with customers and tracking specific keywords but if you're using them for casual browsing of personal accounts, the experience isn't nearly as pleasant as the official clients. SoFlow looks like a great in-between
Alex Lukianov
You guys finally unite all these social media apps and it seems to be very handy! What do you think about YouTube integration? It would be great to see the new updates from channels you're subscribed to
Ben Gray
@ligoalexandr yeah that would be good, keep your eyes peeled for an update
Elia Morling
What about email integration?
Ben Gray
@tribaling Yeah, possibly in the not-too-distant future
Elia Morling
@bcgray00 it's more fun to say yes than no :)
Brian Kidwell
This looks awesome! What are some of the social media platforms you're looking to integrate next?
Ben Gray
@thebriankidwell not certain yet, but some general ideas are Google+ LinkedIn and YouTube
John Whaley
The product looks great on your website! Sounds like something I could personally use. Question: What's the strategy behind your pricing? (Genuinely curious.) Why did you chose a $1.99 price point rather than a Freemium model? I'd imagine going Freemium could open you up to a wider audience. (You could then charge to unlock features like commenting, etc.) As it is now, it's difficult to gauge whether your app's worth downloading without being able to try it first (especially since you don't have any substantial reviews yet...)
Ben Gray
@johnrwhaley One of the reasons is that we have a maximum of 100,000 users (governed by the Twitter API.) I'm also hoping to gather more reviews as part of the growth process
Jude Ankrah
I think this is a great idea. In fact I had been looking for an app like this myself. Did not find one so I created one for android called Aggreg8 - check it out. I will be downloading this one to try out. However like another comment pointed out it will be great to have a freemium version to generate a large user base
