Last week I posted on here after I felt really frustrated about a number of bad reviews I had received. I want to please every single one of my users and when I hear that they are not happy with my product, it often gets to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That said, despite making me feel frustrated (or maybe devastated as I put it during a frustrated post), reviews are also endlessly helpful. Especially when they say why <\/em>they like or dislike my app – it gives me a really good insight into what users want. Quite often, I just see the numbers, 5,4,3,5,4,5,4,5. Whilst I like seeing the numbers and it higher numbers make me really happy, they can, quite easily just become a bunch of numbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This week I have continued to get less than perfect reviews, but the contents were quite helpful. I could sit down and read each review and try to put myself into the shoes of the user. I addressed each review (not only with a reply, but with some real code change) one after the other. I dealt with it and my app is better for it. Also, the users who gave me the input now have an app which behaves more like they want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Don’t ever feel bad for leaving constructive feedback for developers. For those who care about what they give their users, this is infinitely helpful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Last week I posted on here after I felt really frustrated about a number of bad reviews I had received.
