Background color really hurt my eyes, also it asks for too much data access. Normally I'd never authorize an app to do that but I let it slip this time to give you a feedback.
At first,to test this app I basically switched to monkey mode and started clicking on links and buttons to list some chics' profiles. Nothing happened.
Then I switched to manual mode and clicked on 'matches' tab. I only had 2 parameters in my interests list, so no result was returned.
Then I clicked on 'you' tab, started rating the things that the app threw at me, after about 15 votes or so, I started to have some results in matches section.
If I were a regular user who was using the app for the first time you'd probably lose me after the 'clicking around and not getting any chic profiles' part. So directing newcomers using visible (shiny, bouncy) tooltips is crucial.
I was getting a limited number of profiles in results, so I tried to play with sliders. I was expecting to get different profiles but instead I just got the same profiles, but fewer of them. I don't know if this is a bug or a feature, but I'd love to see different people based on the search criteria. Do you keep showing the same results until a member pays you money?
- stickfigure 16y agoThanks, this is great feedback. I must work on the newuser process. The chief problem is that there are only a few dozen "published" profiles in the system right now, so you're probably seeing all of the candidates that match to your likes. The sliders just aren't going to be much fun until there are at least a few hundred users. I suspect that the chicken-and-egg problem is the biggest issue with online dating startups, but it's one that (I think) will go away after a thousand or so users sign up.
