Why I need to open another app, wait for reasonable(not troll) responses instead of asking it directly into my Whatsapp friends' groups ? Otherwise, great implementation, nice UX 🐧

@skylifee7 very good question. dvel is streamlined for decision making. I used to ask people using Whatsapp, it takes longer, because the asked person needs to type text. The main problem I had using Whatsapp is, that you have a lot of distraction like comments and alternative suggestions. We wanted to create a product that offers the fastest possible feedback, if you get the question right, it should be easy for the person you ask and dvel provides the first feedback within seconds. Let me know if you have any questions.

@peterbuch That answer looked promising 👍 But, if I want to ask for a right decision to my friends, they must download the app ? Am I right ? I don't think they will be willing to download it, easily.. Maybe we can send shortened URLs with little web-application(decision making) on it.. And that web-application may ask for&promote downloading the app such as " Hey John! Thanks for helping your friend's food decision 🍕 If you want to ask for immediate answers for your complicated decisions, join us Today! bit.ly/xdvelapppx " 🐧

@skylifee7 that's a good point. Your friends don't need the app. Just create a dvel and share a web link to our webvoting via whatsapp. That's already implemented. Your friends can than vote even if they don't have the app. You can even set a dvel to private before you post it and than share the link to Whatsapp if you want that only your friends in a Whatsapp group can vote for it. Having a short link would be awesome, that's a great input. @phips28 let's do it.

@luca I would say so far most dvels fall into these 3 categories: what to wear ? : http://www.letsdvel.com/dvels/7e... what to eat ? : http://www.letsdvel.com/dvels/6a... what to buy ? : http://www.letsdvel.com/dvels/58... It's impossible to anticipate which additional formats/usecases we will see. Even just looking at the 5k dvels so far it looks like there will be countless and very diverse usecases. I also see a strong usecase in logo or other visual a/b testing in real-time. One thing I find fascinating is seeing users prompt others for cheering for them for making the right decision (not smoking, getting up, studying, going for a run) Can't wait to see what dvels you come up with.

Since community will be a crucial part of this app, I'm wondering what is your distribution strategy? How will you find users?

@3x14159265 We're planning some Guerilla Marketing efforts. One example is stickers placed in changing rooms of clothing stores (#whattobuy? ). Another one will be stickers in gym locker rooms prompting go back for another circle or go home. (#whattodo ?) In addition to that we're focusing on unconventional (can't say yet) formats on upcoming Social Platforms including @appmeerkat, @bemeapp, @YikYakApp etc. I'll write about it on Medium (https://medium.com/@peterbuch ) as soon as the campaigns go live.
