Thanks for the tips and the note about the broken link. We'll fix these things.

As I mentioned in another comment, we had a developer that saw an overall 140% CTR because his users clicked on the app discovery grid multiple times. Meaning - there were users that clicked on multiple apps in the app discovery grid.

It is completely up to the app developer to choose which apps they want to show. The developer controls this. So they can just show their own apps and / or apps that are complementary to theirs. They can change this in realtime on our backend dashboard.

Good points! Integration is completely customizable. The bar is optional, and you're free to programmatically call up the grid using breakpoints defined in your code. If you do choose to integrate the bar, it can be completely customized to fit the style of your app. It can also be placed on the top of your interface if this is more appropriate.

We're allowing complete customization so that the developers that know their users best can decide how to implement it in their apps.

Lagging?? Vine has grown fastest out of all of the social networks you mentioned within my group of non-techie friends. All I see on my Twitter feed is Vine links. All anyone talks about in person is whether we're going to 'Vine' whatever we're doing. Maybe this is just my group of friends though (early 20s).

Will Sasso alone has over 250k followers and the app has been live for like, a little over two months now? I'd say it's growing pretty rapidly.

They really should have released the chat portion as a standalone app. It's not consistent with their digital journal concept. Now the app feels heavy, crammed, and confusing.

That being said, they did a beautiful job implementing chat and in my opinion it blows every other messaging app (ex. groupme) out of the water. I just wish they had released it as it's own app.

That Chris guy should be fired. A laughable excuse for customer service.

EDIT: Looks like they're volunteers. But still.

Wish this article was around when I started. These are all things I've learned to use and embrace every day. Great tips!

I disagree. UI walkthroughs are like instruction manuals. Some people read them, but most just toss them aside and learn about the product by using it. I think there definitely needs to be some sort of help section within the app that the user can refer to when needed, but for the most part UI walkthroughs are just barriers of entry. I would even argue that most UI walkthroughs are pretty overwhelming for the average user.

Cool, thanks man. Does exec work in Palo Alto or only the city?

Cool, glad you guys are aware. I like the custom UI implementations. Seems like you guys spent some good time polishing up all of the core animation and stuff. Nice job!

Downloaded the app earlier today. The 'Sign up or sign in' with Facebook button does nothing. Does this happen for anybody else? If this is a reoccurring bug you should work to fix this ASAP.
