Ask HN: How do you get feedback for beta apps
2 comments
I’ve noticed that whenever someone posts a Show HN and the only way to try it is by downloading a native mobile app (especially from the Apple App Store) it tends to get significantly less feedback. The friction of having to install an app, plus the fact that it’s limited to iPhone users just slashes engagement.
If at all possible, consider building a PWA for the beta. You’ll get a lot more eyeballs by making it accessible as a simple website. Then once things are more polished, you could migrate over to a dedicated app.

Giving feedback takes effort and time. Unless you are willing to give something in return, the chances of random people from net giving you "honest" feedback are slim to none.
TL;DR: Offer something in return.

So where do we get critical feedback. This is going to be a free app so obviously looking for free feedback
Is show HN the place? I thought that was for apps in prod!
