Hello Dan,
thank you for your answer! You're right there is still a need in optimizing the landing page. In fact the whole page was developed for a customer development course at university. So I really appreciate feedback on the psychological parts of increasing the "customer" base!
Beste Grüße aus München :)
Since timeup is for free I think that a good way to go into that direction is to completely expose our API and make it publicly available.
Than everybody who wants can create addons for several kind of devices and other software. Right now the API is still very tiny and in my opinion it should stay like that. Only a very small selection of additional features will come.
So far our capacity (only 2 devs) is very very limited to support all kind of other software / devices in short time. (We're still students and doing timeup as a small side project - We saw the need of that tool when trying to organize meetings for learning groups)
Would you like them to be always visible or when you are doing a mouse hover over the color? In addition, how would you solve the problem that there are multiple time slots where the number X of your peers can attend but at each of the different time slots it's a different subgroup of all attendees.
I agree, next time we'll post a link directly to the page! As soon our short explanatory video is done there is no need for a landing page in between. It will be available on the top right corner.
Meet by Sunrise is definitely also cool tool. I think the difference too them is still the hotspot way of seeing things. In the near future there will be also a keyboard for our "service".
timeup.io focuses on the finding of the best fitting time spots for all event participants. On other platforms the event creator usually determines at which time slots an event should take place. Mostly, these time slots are the ones only the event creator can attend. So there is always a shift to inaccuracy. In addition, the design of timeup.io is very clean and intuitive. This allows an event creator or participant to be extremely quick on the creation or join process.
Thanks anonymous344, we received the feedback a couple of times the past days. Currently, we are working on the contrast of the elements and fix this point. :)
Thanks a lot! In the beginning the button was "Sign In" instead of "Join". I believe there is still a big confusion and people think now they have to sign up in order to use timeup. I will follow your advise and measure if the rate of people closing the site will decrease! It definitely sounds less confusing! Best regards :)
Thanks for the reply thp. We heard this comment a lot the past days and will implement this feature in the next version. Should be online in the next 2/3 days.
