Literally just a worse version of Quora

Has Potential, Get this App!!
So far, I have made $40 from this app. In order to do this I’ve answered several questions a day for the last few weeks. I get them throughout the day and usually promptly respond.
Here’s a few areas I think Throw can improve
1. Steak counter. It says I’m on a 4 day streak every day, however I probably have a 30 day streak. I’ve answered multiple questions (usually 8+) for the last several weeks.
2. Rating system. The star system and rating system feels very strange. I’d really like to have some transparency on how this works, especially when I’m paying for boosts on occasion. It seems that it’s somewhat arbitrary and unclear. I was rated 4.3 stars and ranked 43rd or something, even though I’ve never came across someone with a higher rating. I wanted to boost myself to get close to 5 stars, so I launched to boosts. I got great reviews on these boosts, but the next day I was put down to a 3.9 star rating. Its very strange, and it would be cool if I can see my what metrics I need to achieve a higher rating.
3. Broken Throws. Sometimes users send throws that can’t be answered because they aren’t questions, there is no way to answer in the app (though I suspect this was fixed), or because they selected a strange answer medium (I.e. picture). Of course a large amount of these throws are reportable, but some are in a gray area and I don’t want to risk a false report penalty
4. Payment. I think payment should be overhauled. It needs to be more merit based. This one is HUGE. It’s very strange to me that poll answers pay the same as my 750 character answers. It’s also strange that it costs the same. I think users should be able to poll 25 people for 30 cents. I also think I should get payed an initial amount of 14 cents or whatever for long for answers, but receive additional payment for likes. Another idea is to receive extra bonus payment if the thrower hearts yours. There could even be a special symbol by it like how YouTube has the creator heart. There needs to be WAY MORE incentive for quality answers. People are PAYING for answers when they could get them for free on Reddit or similar, so let’s create a space where answers are always high quality.
5. Skips and overly technical questions. There is a problem I’ve noticed on this app where people ask very technical questions related to their field or something. Lazy catchers reply “idk” or give some otherwise incomplete or incorrect answer. You need to encourage skipping questions that are too technical so someone who can answer them will. A little popup that says “tap skip if this throw is too technical.” Or discourage questions that are technical and remind users that throw is for relationship and life questions or something.
The last thing is that this app needs to grow! We need more users! This app could truly flourish with more users. I would estimate there is only a few hundred regular users. We need thousands and thousands. Get this app!
Anyways these are the things I’ve been considering lately. Hire me or something haha!Nathanr77
Can’t be real
Can’t get anything to load. When I click on something to answer and ad pops up. Am I getting paid for the ad too? Doubtful. Feels very bad to use. who cares what gender. Should have the option to not answer as it doesn’t effect my ability to answer different questions. Seemed like a cool idea even if we didn’t get paid for it, too bad the app doesn’t work.Pual4ni327
Will never get past “Warm up” period
You will never get past the 5 warm up questions to the point you actually get paid.
Once you complete the 5* warm up questions it just stops giving you things to answer for a bit then makes you answer 5 more questions for free to “warm up” Its made me do that 8 times now. I’ve had enough.
Oh and it only sends out notifications you have questions to answer when the app is closed and it’s too late to answer them. Total waste of time. They just use you to answer questions for free in a never ending 5* question warm up period on repeatThatPupTy
WTH??
I’m having a hard time figuring out why this is even a thing? There are sooo many places you can ask a question for free. Why would you pay to get answers or advice from random people? You don’t know if they even know what they’re talking about.Beccangel
Downloadable for free, Pay to Play
This app has so much potential, but the only way to be able to do anything in it is by paying to play. Not worth your time. Don’t bother trying.Elsie Gillespie
Waste of time
It only sent me 4 questions and that was it. Days went by without any catches. I gave up and Deleted.Meg@it17
survey problems
it dont work at all every survey you do its gon say opps it boot you out dont download its waste of ur timehavehmummeh
Is it a scam or just pointless??
1. You have to do five warmup questions every 24 hours or you don’t earn on the sixth and beyond. So basically they are getting five free answers from you and then you stop getting catches so you can’t earn. Also, I’m not even getting a catch a day right now.
2. They say people will pay because it’s legit advice. Sorry, but if I want crowdsourced advice, I’m going to Reddit where I can get the info for free and the person probably actually knows what they are talking about.119190768
Confused
I don’t even know what I’m supposed to do. Very confusing app.Noneyabuisss
