It's amazing what a few icons can tell you about someone.
How to make your app popular: Apps and social networks are about value, you are either entertaining people or creating a utility. Why did instagram really work and become one of the most popular apps in the world? It wasn't a social network, it made us better at taking photos which we care about, and that utility made the app popular and all the other layers came with it. You can either be a utility or you can be escapism.
I know that all of our lives are always busy and intense, but you can be entertainment for your self. If you don’t understand that, just look at the front of your phone. I promise you the apps that are in the front of your phone falls in one of those 3 categories I just mentioned. What is on your home screen of your phone is the single clearest gateway into the psychology of what human beings care about in today's society. Make an app truly focused on one of those 3 categories to make an app popular.

That was really deep.
Still relevant. Great information. Thank you Gary.
Dude this is easy, just make a game which is about porn.
No seriously those games got like 4.5 rating when it was made like a few weeks ago
"wow"
Pretty good, the only problem with this is that many people don't edit their home screens at all, and for simple reasons such as being content with the factory placement of apps on the home screen. Meanwhile, others don't use their phone much and haven't downloaded many personalized applications for use. Those who do, however, will sometimes edit the home screen.
He is so interesting and enthusiastic about topics! Great speaker!
Quite insightful! We at Handicap This aim to entertain with our endeavors but in a way that educates others about adversity and empowers them to overcome that adversity. Every organization should ask themselves, what value do we bring the marketplace?
Or you could spend your life helping other people and have nothing to show for it…see my point?
Deep 🙂
He said "……….Wow." Hahaha! I love it.
all the people that interview you do not truly understand your great wisdom while you are with them (this guy and Chase, Morgan and all the others). You are an absolute genius. Thank you so much.
I still don't understand the last sentence. Your phone's homescreen photo is… what?
Love this! Utility is so important for businesses
