This obstacle is nothing at all compared to what's to come. If you pursue any such project, you will someday laugh that you ever asked this question. I'll laugh with you (not at you) - everyone has been there. It says nothing about the value of your product. You'll receive a million actual rejections - aggressive, demaning rejections - by people who actually try out your product, and a million more from people who say they did. Look up stories of all the successful people and the rejections they got and still get. You're just getting started! :) Consider this experience a very gentle on-ramp. FWIW I'm not surprised at all by this response. It's easy to have a conversation with someone and socializing is enjoyable. But if someone asked me to test a new application (and I associate new apps with many additional difficulties) and provide feedback, I would dread it and associate it with a big shift of attention, lots of labor, and maybe an attempt to get free labor. If I had a close relationship or an obligation, I'd put the request on my todo list for when I had time and energy for such a thing - likely never! Also, maybe they don't think you are open to feedback. That would be valuable to learn. Maybe you need to learn how to communicate your idea better. A video demo maybe?
