Rate The Whyd App, Help Us Trend!

Wow, what a busy week we’ve seen here in Paris and around the world. The Whyd iOS app launched on Monday, and we’ve witnessed an incredible response from the Whyd community, new music lovers, and the press at large with articles from Mashable, Forbes, Lifehacker (good old Alan Henry!!), The Next Web, Frenchweb, TechCrunch, and a lot more. 

But music is an extremely competitive space, and in order to get more visibility and inject even more energy into the Whyd community, we need you to go to the App Store and rate our app! Leave comments about how Whyd changed your life. Tell us why music is so important to you and why other services just aren’t cutting it. Give us 5 stars, or 4, if you absolutely hate the app ;)  

If you have a project that needs supporting, or an app that needs rating, send an email to us [tony at whyd dot com] and we will return the favor! 

We’re Flattered!

As you know, Whyd launched yesterday, spreading our message to keep, play, and share the internet’s music in one place, around the world. A lot of our dear friends came out of the woodwork to congratulate us on a job well done. We have to say, to each and every one of you: thank you, it truly means everything to us! 

The feedback started pouring in, as did the reviews. Our first coverage came from Engadget who said, “Whyd's certainly an intriguing little product — and a well built one. It's got a nice, clean UI and great playback capabilities.” Hypebot agreed, “It certainly makes it easier to build a collection and discover available music which is key for new users to get involved.” And DigitalTrends concluded, “based on our experience with Whyd, the app could one day compete with Last.fm, Spotify, and other major music sites.”

Moreover, we were truly touched by what Pascal Emmanuel Gobry from Forbes had to say, “it’s not everyday you see a social startup from France whose service A) serves a real need, and B) is so well-designed, so I’m happy to write about them. I also enjoy the service and will keep using it, and I hope other people will too.” So do we!

Now that the launch is over, the hard work begins!
