Very interesting. Great name. Calendar apps that incrementally improve certain interactions are great. I agree with the UI. Good stuff @jasonkyren

Really hoping this will be the answer to the sunsetting of Sunrise. 💯

Excellent idea. I do this now for friends using a special Gmail account and I invite them to book themselves in with me for any of my concerts/shows. I would love something like this to make it even easier! Have you thought about getting feedback from friends so that they get a say in what they want to do too?
Jason Lapierre
@nassaraf Thanks! Yes we've already started getting feedbacks from friends and early users and some things are starting to stand out from the rest. But I'd love to get more feedbacks from anyone who's interested in helping us improve Gong. If you already have your own ideas to make it more useful to you to organise your concerts please send me a message / email!

maybe a naive question but experience tells me not to assume - Does the chat feature require everyone to be using gong?
Jason Lapierre
@inditravlr the chat feature is (for now) embedded within the app yes. The idea is to have everything in the same place really so that you know where to look when you'll try to find the info about an event someone invited you to. PS: You can still export those events back to your phone calendar if you reeaally need to ;)
Steven Hambleton
Am I right that Gong assumes I use my phone's calendar to create events?
Jason Lapierre
@stinhambo Hey Steven, you can either import events from your phone's calendars, or create some manually from the app. It will also be possible to import from any calendar (Google, etc.) directly from the app in a near future
Steven Hambleton
@jasonkyren Ah ok cool, I'll check it out when you can import from Google :)

I LOVE this but my iPhone 6s in Canada won't download. Sad!! Is it not yet synced totally into Canada?
Jason Lapierre
Hey @kadiskad! Your message is very heartwarming! It should indeed be available in Canada and the rest of the world. Would you like to send me an email at jay@get-gong.com so I can sort this out for you? 😀

Love the app because of our latest experiment (https://www.reprime.io). I tried using it in India and after asking my phone number, it keeps showing "Sending phone number..." with a loading sign and then nothing happens. Cannot move past the first screen. Is it available in India? :)
Jason Lapierre
Thanks @mohitmamoria! I've sent you a private message to fix this issue with you 😉
Mohit Mamoria
@jasonkyren Loved the quick fix! :) Must say, you're going to go places.

The app is only for US? Because I've try to enter my phone number (Europe) and don't go forward.

How come it's not live in the UK?
Jason Lapierre
Hey @imaan988 it is live in the UK! You can download it here: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/...

@jasonkyren Strange, it wouldn't come up on the app store, even after I've downloaded it :S Thanks for the link :)
Jason Lapierre
@imaan988 You're welcome! 👌🏻😉

Um I just downloaded Gong for the first time, tried to sync my calendars, and got an error message - twice. Saying reason (null). Unfortunately uninstalling.
Jason Lapierre
@fishermandow Hey Hebah, would you mind helping us and let me know when this approximately happened so we can try and check what's the problem? :)
