Oh this is _really cool_.
Totally dig the convenience here, that you just say "I want to stay in this area" and hosts can contact you to say they've got a place to stay. Really nice reversal of the normal setup there.
Can totally see myself using this when travelling. Great job @asherhunt & team!
p.s. Mobile first 🙌
I tried signing up with my German number and received a "Please specify a valid phone number" error. If you aren't available outside the US, you should let users and know offer to text them when the app is available in their area.
@danielfoster437 we'll definitely look into this. The number should never be a gating issue - that's a bug, and thanks for the heads up. People are notified if they try to make a request in an area that has no listings. If you're able to make a request at all, that means there is some number of hosts in the area!
Love the idea will try it out for sure.
Some unsolicited feedback on the website -- The homepage doesn't appear to have a download app button which seems like a no brainer-- had to search it on iTunes. Also I couldn't easily find an email address/contact form to send questions/comments/feedback. Am I missing something?
@nickwoodhams Hi nick, if you're on your phone there's an easy download button. It's responsive. On the web there's a form to just have it sent directly to your inbox so you can download it from there! Also if you're on an iPhone and you view it, there should be a smart banner that shows you a download button. Let me know if I can be any more helpful!
Also great feedback on the feedback section :)
We do have this for users, and it's very easy to find support. I also made this quick page. https://www.joinovernight.com/help, but it could be better. I'll take a look at what I can build quickly.
One note within the usability space, white font on light blue/teal background is not enough contrast to be easily read. Completely unreadable in the video.
