Decisions

Not directly related to a consumer app, but I&#x27;ve found that requests for more features strongly predict customers who aren&#x27;t going to pay.<p>Customers who are a good fit for the product ask for the core features to work better, faster, and in new situations you haven&#x27;t thought of yet.<p>Customers who ask for random features are trying to think of use cases they want solved, because there are none being solved by the product as-is.<p>If most of your prospects are asking for random features, you don&#x27;t have product-market fit. Try asking these customers to sign contracts saying they&#x27;ll pay once the feature is supported. If they will, that&#x27;s a promising pivot opportunity.

Seems strange that the posts mention things but never elaborate on them:<p>What are the four decisions in the app? Which feature did one user want to remove?

Single review of app on appstore (<a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/wut-semi-anonymous-chat./id781488867?mt=8" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;itunes.apple.com&#x2F;us&#x2F;app&#x2F;wut-semi-anonymous-chat.&#x2F;id7...</a>)<p>&quot; didnt use a password field<p>by spencer1248<p>everyone saw my facebook password&quot;<p>Looks like you need to focus on such things before thinking about features at all.

Simplicity is a great thing and the app screenshot looks nice. There must be something else to help persuade people to download this or explain the usefulness of its simplicity.<p>PS. WUT SENDS A MESSAGE TO ALL FRIEND WHO HAVE WUT.<p>Should it be Friends*?

&quot;Most of my friends who looked at it asked for new features.&quot;<p>Users ask for features, but as makers we need to dig deeper and understand the underlying need that&#x27;s not being met.

Is there any content to this post? All I see is &quot;someone said something I didn&#x27;t expect.&quot;
