Requested App of the Week

[wpn00b]

Triposo
Please Please Please

Is that an app? If you could please provide any relevant links in your post along with the app name. It would help to make sure the contact info I look for is for the proper developer or company. Also whatever you can find so I don't have to go hunting is appreciated as well

Please take the time to contact both of the featured applications so that this thread actually does some good!

Thank you for being here!

Triposo is an app for travellers/wanderers currently available on Android and Apple. Info on 200+ countries.
http://www.triposo.com/?frontpage=true
Far and away better than anything currently available on WP. Trip Advisor doesn't even come close.
Offline travel/maps/events/sites/restaurants/hole in the wall type places.
feedback@triposo.com is the only contact I have found.

Mailed and PM'd them..

Guys... I think part of the point of this is to all contact the developer within the same week.

A wave gets noticed more than a trickle.

We are still on SnapChat this week. Epocrates is next week. Follow what is current in the #1 post and we can show them an ORGANIZED community that cares about their platform.

Edit: Nevermind. You explained it best. LOL. Deleted my post that agreed with you but was possibly confusing.

Should I change it to Sundays btw? Thursday is my day off so its easier...that's why I'm updating on that day. I hope that's okay.

Oh and its okay to be early, just don't skip over the first developer. Maybe do one contact method while it is Up Next and another during its week as the featured app.

It's your baby, wpn00b. You run it how you want and I'm happy to follow along...

Great. I'll keep it at Thursdays then. I do appreciate any feedback though.

Goodbudget. Available for iPhone and Android. In their forums have specifically stated do not intend to build WP app, due to market share. goodbudget.com/help-when-you-need-it/#.VKi5Y7Xn-MY

Discover Card. They currently do not have plans to create an app (as of my request a couple months ago anyway). discovercard.com/mweb/#/contactUs

Just 2 for now...

 

[Ahy Nonimous]

1. Quicken (galls me no end that they don't have a WP mobile app)
2. Discover Bank (an excellent online bank, except for their lack of a WP mobile app)
3. The Vanguard Group (the largest mutual fund house on planet earth)

CAVE

Their fb info and email are in that link.











They have a wp7 game, dodonpachi maximum, that had a game breaking bug under wp8, and so they pulled it from the wp8 store. They never bothered to fix the bug.




I want dodonpachi maximum back on my phone. It was literally the only mobile game I ever really played, and (sorry WP devs) no bullet hell game in the WP8 store is as polished as dodonpachi was.




At the very, very, very least I would ask them to get dodonpachi fixed up for wp8. If they were feeling more generous I'd ask for espgaluda II.

Edit- presumably everyone who participates in this scheme also pledges to buy the app in question? I don't see this succeeding otherwise.

Trello, there are apps for everyone, even Windows 8 and Kindle Fire, but nothing for Windows Phone.

Complained on a mail, the reply:

So...

1. Quicken 2. Discover Bank 3. The Vanguard Group

Contact details for these please.

 

[wpn00b]

Contact details for these please.

Yes, contact details should be posted along with the app name. I will rotate them each to the top post weekly, but anyone at any time can sift through the thread and contact whoever they please. I'll post any info I can find so they can contact the developer a different way when it reaches the first post.

This way we are all helping keep this going!

I'll edit the first post with the request for contact info in each post so there is no confusion.

Have contacted Starbucks UK, and got the following response:

Dear <<NAME REMOVED>>,

Thank you for contacting Starbucks Coffee Company. Please accept my apologies for the delay in responding to your e-mail.

We have continued to look at the Windows Phone platform and listen to our customer's needs. As we grow and evolve our mobile applications, we seek to develop on the platforms where we see the greatest opportunity. At this time we will not support the Windows platform but will continue to evaluate it as the landscape evolves.

Your feedback regarding this decision is much appreciated. Rest assured, your questions and concerns have been documented and passed along to the appropriate teams.

If you ever have any questions or concerns in the future, please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Sincerely,
<<NAME REMOVED>>

Well lets evolve that landscape then! LOL. I'll add that one to the list and get it up in a few weeks.

Thank you for providing the links.

<letter snipped>

I'm the kind of guy that would write back something like this and quote their original email.


Dear Starbucks,

Thank you for replying. Please accept my word that I will no longer be frequenting your establishments.

I will continue to use the Windows Phone platform as it suits my personal needs better than any of the platforms you do support. It is a shame you can not see the opportunity in treating all your customers equally and choose to show obvious favoritism to the status quo. Growth does not happen through stagnation. At this time I will discontinue support of Starbucks but will continue to evaluate you in terms of how you make yourselves more convenient for some customers while ignoring others. I will instead use an alternate establishment for my coffee needs. After all, my communications lifeline is more important to me than your coffee. I have but one cell phone, my city holds a myriad of cafes.

Your offhand dismissal is most definitely not appreciated. Rest assured, your lack of response has been documented and will be vociferously passed along to the Windows Phone communities, of which I am a very active and visible participant.

If I ever have any questions or concerns in the future, I will remember what a dismal disappointment it was to try and reach out to you.

Sincerely,
<<NAME REMOVED>>

Former Customer


But that's just me...
