I think this is going to be a great! simple and intuitive interface. Does this keep track of twitter chat? or even upcoming chat. I think this would be great to add some king of reminder/notification etc.
@atharmajeed Oh, that's not for public chats, only private ones. But we plan to introduce Group Chats soon, so yeah, it'll be like a Twitter chat, but in private and invite-only :) Nevertheless, very good idea there to scan and find upcoming Twitter chats. Noted! 🙌
@atharmajeed Thanks! With Twitter chat do you mean the public tweet stream or the DM system? We didn't really want to involve ourselves with the tweets stream (that's Twitter client territory!).
In regards to smoothly integrating with the DM system, there was the issue of the DM-character limit (at least until very recently), and future message attachments (stickers? the payment thing Isidoros mentioned) Twitter's DM wouldnt be able to handle, which would have led to all sorts of workaround solutions with links and such.
Much simpler to just build a whole new, Twitter account authenticated system from scratch!
Hey @isiyfa,
Great job you guys have done!
Thoughts:
- I love how minimalistic this app is
- As other people have pointed out, it lacks of "Wow" moment because no one is on these unless you invite them (send a DM to these people as first message maybe?)
- I really like the bold vision, especially when it comes to sending money/attachments with a tweet
@mnlfrgr Grazie Manuel !! As you said, the invite thing is something we have to work on now. I'm so happy you like it. Let's see what the future holds!! (maybe a collaboration with EventNinja at some point ? 😉)
Congrats on launching! That's a huge step and I'm sure it feels awesome/anxious today.
Points of feedback:
- I'm sure you guys are getting slammed today but messages aren't showing up in the main Chats windows for me (I can see the convo if I go to that specific Twitter person and then look at the messages icon that's on their profile). I'm sure it's just a server scaling thing and will be adjusted once the flood dies down.
- The profile pics are being imported from Twitter as slightly skewed (in my opinion). I asked a few others and they felt the profile pics were "wrong" as well
Keep up the work and good luck!
@grantheimbach Thank you Grant!! Hopefully we can fix the problems and make it the app we all envision!
-The skewed pics is something we're trying to fix right now, it's a little problem that will be solved soon :)
-@kupeplex dude that's for you ^ Servers issue :)
@grantheimbach Sorry to hear, will look into it! Was this the case since install or did it suddenly started happening?
In regards to the skewed images. Its a very easy fix and will be taken care of in the next update!
Report
@kupeplex I just installed it. When I just checked again, I'm now seeing the chat in the main Chat page. It looks like it just took some time before it showed up. I'm on pretty strong Wifi but it could have been a connection issue.
Thanks for the reply!!
I've had the pleasure to meet the men behind this beautiful app: @kupeplex and @isiyfa
Popsicle is amazing at creating a chat network of your Twitter friends and followers! "Imagine Twitter had an app that was called DM" that was a quote from @jason about a year ago. Well, the wait is over. This app is here and it's better than Twitter could have executed it themselves.
If you are all Twitter addicts, which I assume because you all signed up to ProductHunt with Twitter^^, I can only encourage you to give this a try and see for yourself.
As a ui/ux interaction designer I can give you honest feedback about the ui of the app!
1) I like the fact that is minimal!
2) The bottom icons I think are a bit to bold!
3)Like the profile screen and that fact that it is easy very easy to sign out! I would like the profile page to have also the twitter description for each person!
4) The little folder for the invite is very cute! 😄
Well that's that happy if I help!
Also love the fact that you guys are Greeks as so am I!✌
Wish you the best!
