FavorIt Loves App Users, Apps and App Devs Alike

At first glance, one might think FavorIt just helps people find apps.  I think that part is pretty clear. Extrapolating that can get you to understand that this benefits the savvy users by helping them find hidden gems or even just see if “that app they heard about is worth the download” as well as the person who just got an iPhone and doesn’t know where to begin when it comes to these “apps” that everyone talks so incessantly about.

One overlooked aspect that is important to where FavorIt was born from is not in the finding of apps, but the sheer joy of “wearing the apps we love like badges.” I would direct you to our blogs in order to really latch on to that idea.

However, a great thing that FavorIt brings to the table is a truly evened out playing field for all of the app developers out there who are trying to get noticed.  There are no ads to compete with and no difficult search engine optimization tactics to have to learn. If you make a killer app, whether as a hobbyist who knows how to write great code or a huge company working tirelessly, the users of your app can list it a one of their FavorIts. When they share this info with their friends (people who know and trust them), then you get free endorsements 24/7/365. This truly puts the model of “the cream rising to the top” into action. As the FavorIt community grows, so will the recognition of your app. With FavorIt, your future users won’t have to search for you – you will be recommended from a trusted source…your icon will be in their hands just waiting to be downloaded!

So Devs out there, here is where I provide a call to action:

  1. Make great apps
  2. Help us spread the word about FavorIt

We love the open environment in which great apps can come from anywhere and not only do we love to find and use them, we love to promote them and give credit where credit is due. We appreciate your help and think that we can help you.

Doug and Jake are grateful to Chuck Joiner and all of MacVoices.tv for taking the time to talk with us about FavorIt.

It was an honor to get a chance to talk with Chuck, as I have been listening to his podcasts and watching his videos for years!

Version 1.1.2 Update is in the App Store!

We have a fix in place for the recent initial install hang-up issue that some users experienced after signing into facebook from within FavorIt. If this issue kept you from using FavorIt, we apologize – applying this update from the App Store will resolve the problem.

Also, we hope that knowing the app will run right away allows you to recommend FavorIt to your friends more freely. As you build your personal network of friends, you will just have that many more friend-recommended apps at your disposal! Adding 10 friends provides you with a potential* 50 more apps for you to check out! (think about the possibilities of having even more of your friends start using FavorIt!) Best yet, those apps are used by people you know, so if you have questions or need to know more about the app, you can actually TALK to them. 

Also, now that MacWorld is behind us and this annoying bug was fixed, FavorIt’s limited time of being free will be coming to an end soon. Please let your friends know while the getting is still good!

Thanks from the 2x6Apps Team!!

* we realize that friends may list less than 5 apps and we realiz that there may very well be duplication of apps amongst your friends, but there is 50 slots in that example! (plus, this way I get to use the word ‘amongst’)
