Mobile second

Scary story from the front lines.

Cool hacker startup builds their v1. Friends dig it. Goes to PG and does
YC. Everyone at YC starts using it. A very handy web app that’s right on
time. 2012.

I am using it a ton. Love it.

A year later I meet the founders and realize – I haven’t used it in 8
months.

Why?

The real reason? The mobile web app sucks. Barely usable. No offline.

And no app!

So I say to the founders, did you release an app along the way….?

“Coming soon”.

Wow.
