front times

Wishing it was possible to edit front times, also I miss the chat option from SP

Please don’t shut down

Please don’t shut down

PLEASE DONT SHUT DOWN

Please don’t shut down we are begging you. This is the only app we have found that helps us manage our issues.

SERIOUSLY NOW???????

FIRST SP SHUTS DOWN AND NOW YOU'RE TAKING OUR ALTERNATIVE AWAY?! JUST FRICKIN GREAT THANKS ALOT 😡

Come on man

You guys barely ever updated this and then told us you would, then told us you had no plans to shut down and then announced a shutdown two days later. Embarrassing

Kinda peak(?)

Aside from supporting a creep its good, supporting the creep knocked down 2 points. The other point is because if you have subfolders with similar names its hard to add alters to specific ones. -ANOTHER POINT for not being able to make everything AUTOMATICALLY PUBLIC

it’s good but

it’s a good app, especially now that simply plural is going down but i wish there was a little more. a chat for alters to talk to each other would be so helpful! maybe more customisation options to add pictures / links to the custom fields, more room for pronouns would also be super helpful !!

Better than simply plural .

WAY BETTER 4 THE PEOPLE WHO R BLURRY AND DISSOCIATED 😭

ehh..

i really didnt like it that much. as someone coming from simply plural it had me really disappointed and confused. it also might have been a me issue, but i couldnt even set a username or set any front history stuff which is a MUST in an app like this for me.

Alternative swap

So we’ve been on Simply Plural for years now, but with upcoming changes we hopped over to Octocon. I like it a lot—however, it’s not even letting us set a username and sometimes it takes multiple times just to get a pfp to save. It’s just extra tedious. If those little bugs get fixed it’s literally the best! 😭

Good, but needs more features

it functions similarly to simply plural, but with sp going under i'm switching to octocon. i'd really love to see a chat feature, we use this to communicate so much and losing it is a shame. better statistics would also be a lovely addition. all in all it gets the basics down well

Please add a chat option!

I really like it so far except that it doesn't have a chat/chatroom option. It would be so incredibly helpful if there was a chat room with the option to say whose fronting when writing specific things as well, it's very handy when you can chat back and forth between alters without getting more confused.

Import

Can you fix it so when you transfer all members from simply it can show them numbered 1 to whatever by the day each member was created? I don’t want it just showing 1 to whatever because of the alphabet because it throws the numbers off when I go to create new members.

Good app but I would love it more if you could add photos

I recently moved here from simply plural due to it being shut down soon and this app is very nice and easy to work with yet I miss having my banners and such as I used to decorate all our alters descriptions and I really miss it. Please think of adding a way to do so and maybe coloured text would also be super cool :) 8.5/10 would easily be a 10 with that

It’s okay, but it isn’t no simply plural

Since SP is going down everyone’s coming to this, and honestly I think it’s better for systems that aren’t Polyfragmented.

its alright

kind of frustrating to use sometimes which is excusable because its a newer app, which will likely have bug fixes later on.
some suggestions: markdown could have image embeds, and i think custom privacy buckets like simply plural has would be incredibly helpful.
i do like the ui a lot, and i think this app has a lot of potential and already great features, like the journal.

Barely works

I've been using this for months and it takes one million tries to get anything to set!! It took me forever just to make a username work so i could in theory share my fronts. It's so frustrating to use, it works for tracking alters and fronts but if you want to add any information or any picture or anything else you're doomed

Importing/exporting

Importing hasn’t and won’t work ever since I downloaded a few months ago :(

Alright but it needs a couple features

I downloaded this app cause of the fact that Simply Plural is getting shut down and I like this app a lot visually and how simple the settings are, but it really needs a few features to keep up with the influx of users it’s gonna get so there ain’t buckets, the links with the photos we put in our descriptions don’t work, I can’t archive fused/dormant people, I can’t @ other members in my fields, there’s no analytics, and the general description layout is kinda screwed so please Octocon make some adjustments cause I think this app has a lotta potential

amazing but 👀

i have no complains about this app but PLEASE add image embeds in custom fields and descriptions 😞 i'm switching over from simply plural due to whats happening right now and it was so helpful to be able to add images and to resize them in the link and such. other than that, it's great
