Good question, we are bootstrapping, that means we don't have the money to hire developers, and we are all working on our day jobs, and we need all the pieces to be able to sell (it doesn't make much sense for an event planner to pay if we are covering only event attendees with iPhones but not Androids). So what other options do we have, none of us has much experience with Android, so it will take a long time and we are losing actual customers who have seen the iOS app and want to pay to use it.
- sixQuarks 13y agoyes, but everybody bootstraps when they're first starting out. You should try to figure out how to gain traction with a limited product first. It doesn't make sense to me to bring on another founder just to deploy on android.
- alimoeeny 13y agothanks sixQuarks, I believe I understand your point, but our situation is more like a startup that is providing educational apps to elementary schools, like "learn the alphabet", they can't sell anything unless they have something that all the kids in a classroom can use, covery half the students makes zero money (this is obviously not a perfect analogy), so we need to have an android client, to be able to go live, we may not support older devices, or something like that, but we need to have something, at least something in progress, Does it make sense?
- sixQuarks 13y agoOK, but how far are you going to take that? What about all the devices that are not iphone or android? Why stop there?
