A discussion about Storytelling on the Voiijer app:
The app is an MVP and we’ve tried to address its limitations below. If you have a question that is not in this list, please contact beta@voiijer.com and we’ll answer it, and add it!
No! Right now the app is fully cloud-based, meaning it needs an active, strong WiFi or cell signal in order to function properly. This includes loading, or accept uploads or updates. If you are in an area with bad reception, it is a good idea to make observations on your phone using the default camera, or VoiceMemo app. You can upload them into the app when you are back on WiFi.
Invitations are working, and can be found in the Notifications tab. However, notifications themselves are not turned on, meaning you will not receive an alert when someone invites you. You will have to manually check the Notifications tab (the “bell” icon on the app menu) to see and accept invites. Neither the invitor, nor the invitee will get an alert, you will have to communicate with each other to confirm invitations have been accepted.
If you have accepted an invite to Collaborate, you will see the Voiij in your Profile in your default Voiijs list. If you invite someone to Collaborate on a Voiij, they will see the Voiij appear on their Profile in their default Voiijs list after they have accepted your invite. It may take a minute to appear, or you can pull down on the list to refresh it.
To add a Collaborator to a Voiij, you must both be following each other. Unfortunately right now you can’t see who you are following, or who is following you from your Profile. Instead, you will need to search for that person and ask them to do the same, then both confirm you are following each other. If you still don’t see them in the Voiij Collaborators list (top left inside the Voiij Story), contact Voiijer for troubleshooting.
At this stage, no, please don’t. The share button is active on Voiijs and Observations, but (a) please do not share things yet, because the general public cannot access the app, and (b) shares will link back to the main website, not the app.
There are lots of ways to stay connected and informed during the Early Beta Phase:
