Do you help install the App on your purchasers phone?

My first app I did I went to the place everyday at lunch to help download the app to people's phones

:-h I've always helped the owner as it builds trust and confidence in the App. It is tougher when an owner has an Android. However, when you know what to do, you can still make the experience a good one.

Last night we changed "feedback looping" on Android installs. It now tells the consumer that his app is downloading and where to go look for it (notification pulldown).

EricEdge

Wonderful Todd. You and your team are amazing. Well done!

Just noticed the cool installation prompt for Android. Love everything about it. And it's still easier for end users than having to go to Android Market and entering passwords and stuff.

@EricEdge. What was that idea you mentioned elsewhere about including a full URL inside the app for easier installation? Might be fitting here?

EricEdge

Are you referring to the facebook about page @ToddGoldstein?
Which was about making sure you use the full Vanity App URL Address (including the http://) in the about page of your facebook page i.e. http://style.cat/yourname. Because most people do facebook on their mobile devices these days and they are limited on what they can do and see on the mobile facebook app.

Now that the Android version of the app carries a "human readable" name (joesdiner.apk) I get zero confusion from Droid users.

EricEdge

You're right @SarahSkinnyGold, I also get ZERO confusion. I absolutely love App.Cat and it's potential. Yay!

... and let's not mention the work our coding team had to do to make this happen! You don't even need to worry about changing your app's name, it will ALWAYS show the latest name - and no need to re-create the APK. The guys behind the scenes did an awesome job!

@BenCrockyKepinski, I am so appreciative of the behind the scenes team and all that they do. They are quick to respond and always go the extra mile. This add so much confidence when selling Apps, knowing that a great team is behind you!
