[MVP Feedback] Just launched my side project.

Hi Davfry,

Well done on launching your side project. I wasn't really able to read the selling points due to some UI bug you have there. Full HD res, Chrome 60 : http://pix.toile-libre.org/upload/original/1519661162.png

this is really cute! i'll try it for my upcoming trip.

the Add Trip item categories aren't working properly for me (in Tel Aviv). i'm not getting the results for Parks and Museums I'd expect to. most of the results seem to be Media/news companies.

• UI is much better on desktop than on mobile (on a OnePlusOne phone using Chrome (which I haven't updated recently)).
• Your navbar is doing acrobatics for me on mobile, appearing and disappearing - might be something to do with this (not sure though): https://caniuse.com/#feat=css-sticky.
• Navbar fades into the white background as well, I think if you made it a littler thinner and gave it the blue background it would be OK.
• The product mockup is gone on mobile as well which I found much more informative than the plan/browse/book icons.
• It's annoying that I need to sign up before I really know what it is. Is this entirely necessary with a product like this? It seems like you could have a demo to play around with.
• I'm not sure how best to do username suggestions but I don't find suggesting my name with 15 random numbers on the end to be a good idea. Do people want that as a username? Why not suggest the first part of the email address? That would have given me emilepw, much more appropriate. I don't know how many people that would apply to though.
• Created a trip in Fes, Morocco. When I add a hotel the description is in French! Maybe you could translate based on the user's location? I know this is an MVP though so there might be a quicker solution.
• I'm not getting good results when searching for Trip Items, they seem to be randomly sorted lists - when I search for parks I'm getting restaurants and non-profit organisations at the top of the list. Request froze at some point when I tried the landmarks category.
• When I went to create a second trip, I afterwards had no idea what happened to my first trip! Eventually I found my list of trips by clicking on the logo - this was not intuitive for me.
• I think the UI inside the app is pretty nice and mostly intuitive however.

That was a lot of mostly negative feedback, which is me trying to be helpful, not because I am negative on the idea. I think the idea is good and the MVP is good, bar the issues with searching for trip items.

Best of luck!

Hey davfry,

Sounds like a fun concept!

I honestly didn't go past the landing page, but I think the term "itinerary" is a bit confusing. I'm not a English speaker, but I think there are simpler terms that could make it easier to understand. Like "schedule", or "travel book", or "diary", or "trip", or just "plan".

Love it! Would be cool if it showed a map as well, and maybe something for flights/driving.

Love the name, the landing page, the days pipeline style. Probably a little bit polishing of the logo and Twitter login would make it perfect.

Great product idea. Love how you can drag and drop items between the days. =)

I travel frequently, say 4/5 trips abroad per year. Could you explain why I would want to use your service/app?
