Hey thanks!

I'm glad you like it. You're right, my friend and I've been thinking about doing something like this, but maybe in a more sleek way, maybe the app would start out with help messages, and users would just flip thorough them - not obstructive, yet gets the point across.

Did you find the Easter egg? If you have any more suggestion, please feel free to let us know.

Thank you again!

lol, where did I say you people are wrong. I've, in fact, said "thank you" for the feedback.

I didn't mean it that way, anyways, sorry if you think that way.

If the app's got problem, sure, I'll fix it. But I've tested it on multiple devices, and there are definitely a few people who have used it, and it has worked. I didn't test on ipod touch, so I can't say for sure if it'd work on it. I had built it mainly for iPhone, but the way it works is if you select device family 1, ipod touch gets included. And this person's review says something like ipod user.

So, the app could've crashed, because it was ran on a device I didn't build for? idk. I'll be taking a closer look next time.

Thanks anyways.

I've not tested it on iPod touch. If you could please try, that'd help.

Each picture is a broadcast story. You can tap on it to open it, and swipe through the pictures in it to view that story.

Hmm. The people I've talked to so far think this app has a place, it's not "nothing" definitely. But, I think I do need to work on the pitch more. Clarify it to the point that people can associate them or their lives with the app, and realize why they need to use it.

About taking it hard. Believe me, it has been insane the last few weeks. After working so hard, launching this, writing emails and contacting so many people and whatnot, when absolutely nothing happens, it feels bad.. True, no one is obliged to use it, or even look at it, but ya, it felt bad. Nothing much. :) It might look like it, but I didn't take it that bad. I've gone through this type of stuff in this field before, and the thing is - take the rejection, learn from it, move on, and build something even better next time.

I posted this is another reply, but the main purpose of this app is to share your life anonymously. Take a bunch of pics to create a broadcast story, give it a caption, and broadcast. Now anyone with the app can see it. It's like how Secret and Whisper are, but with Broadcast, you are part of an anonymous network. Another huge difference between those apps and Broadcast is that you can take more than a single pic. Why's this of importance? Because many times when you need to share something, you can just snap-snap-snap (or choose) multiple pics easily, and share. This creates a broadcast story, and aligns more with expressing yourself.

Thanks for the feedback. :)
