Making an app a home.

Not literally of course, – but our app is starting to feel like home. We’ve been “living” in the new version for a few days now, and thankfully we’re settling in nicely. If you read our previous article, you know that wasn’t the initial reaction to the last version.

So as we continue working on a functional version for beta testing, what have we learned? Nothing new really, it’s just always unfortunate when it happens. Measure twice; cut once, move fast, be lightweight, check yourself, be specific… admit failures. The last one is the hardest. it’s better to have a bruised ego than a bad product. The quicker you can put yourself in the position to make the decisions, the better, -after that just trust your instincts.

We’re looking forward to getting this one out in the wild. Hopefully other people will find this new app as comfortable as we’re starting to.
