Any areas of improvement?

  • User onboarding (interests, friends, goals)
  • Motivate to achieve goals (notifications, challenges, gamification, location)

  • UI/UX (interests selection, calendar, categories menu)
  • Add savings feature to achieve goal (partner with financial institution)

How do we test it with end users to make sure the beta is awesome?

  • Distribute to up to 1,000 beta users with Apple TestFlight
  • Learn from active and passive feedback (comments, Mixpanel analytics)
  • Setup behavior funnels on analytics tool and learn about usage
  • Review users actions, location, device and app versions

How do we successfully launch this so it is a success ?

  • Quality, iterations and testing
  • ASO (keywords, SensorTower, AppAnnie)
  • Marketing campaign, referrals, deep linking, guest post
  • Localized App (or at least App Store listing)
  • Push notifications campaigns
  • Install app Twitter badge
  • Redirect web traffic to mobile app
