9 points by xackpot 14y ago

Yay, my first ever iphone app Finderous got approved today at the app store. Before it is ready for sale, I have got some promo codes for you guys to try it. Please use these codes and let me know how you feel about it: 7XYNRKAWL4MJ XNEYXKXMAYWL REKWKE97RHRL 9R3HTNEN69AA KJPJ69WRAN33 XYJ993H47NLX LHWL33PRNTMW FWANKNAK3JRN ERAW9JM39R6F K7KEMHX4T3T9 About Finderous: It is a multilevel locations based short Q&A app, where users can follow places, questions and post short queries at city/county/state/country level according to the type of question. Please let me know if you find any issues with the app. Thanks

Congratulations! Are you sure people can use promo codes before it's ready for sale? You might want to include a link too.

  Thank you. The App status is ready for sale, so I think people can use the promo codes.

    Do you have an iTunes link?
    - xackpot 14y ago
      I have the link, but somehow it's not opening up in iTunes: Here, you can try accessing the app: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/finderous/id520384764?ls=1&mt=8 http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/finderous/id520384764?ls=1&#3...

        It tells me its not available in the U.S. Store. It could be that your app just hasn't been populated throughout the App store, in which case you should wait a day and try again, or you may have done something wrong in iTunes connect and set up you stores incorrectly.

        Oh, now I know why it is not showing up in the app store, I set the release date to 1st June 2012. You may still use the promo code to download the app as few of my friends have been able to download it.

Took KJPJ69WRAN33. I think the interface could be cleaned up a bit. It's sort of confusing navigating around. At first glance it seems like a Quora clone.

  Thanks. Any suggestions on what UI element can be improved upon?
