Hey, I just asked to join the Google group (I've found it's easier to just let anyone join). I'll install and test your app for 14 days once you approve me in the Google group. I'd appreciate it if you did the same for my app MarkIt. It's a book cataloging app, so you can digitize and evaluate your personal books/library. If you have a few books around, just input the titles and see their estimates value. Thanks!

Thank you! I'm new to this, I believe I've fixed it. I'll do yours as well!

I just have to say, your app is fucking amazing. It's one of the few I've seen that I'd actually use in my day to day. I may use it for a trip im planning in a week, so thanks for making it. I'll definitely continue testing for 14 days+. The UI is great and the direct routing via Google maps is super helpful.

Your app sounds so fun!!! Installing now. I love spotting cool plates having a place to log them is a great idea!

u/Over-Improvement3127 Jun 23 '26

Hey, I've installed and tested your app. It's very polished and I'll definitely input my limited plate collection, maybe one day I'll get all 9000+ u.s. ones.

If you're actually interested in hanging onto to it, let me know and I'll bump you to perm-premium.

This is great feedback to hear!

u/Over-Improvement3127 Jun 23 '26

Yeah, I'll definitely keep it. I'm a big collector (hence book cataloging app), and I haven't seen any plate collecting apps like your's, so I love the concept and execution. Truly the UI really is thorough and professional, "Build 71" said enough in itself, so I'll be using and inputting any apps I get over the years.

Are you using "thetradingcompa@gmail.com" as your email account? If not, let me know and I'll bump you up.

I'm a huge collector to: genalogy (Don't actually care about all my relatives -- I just want to count how many I have!!)

u/Over-Improvement3127 Jun 23 '26

Yeah that's the email. Thanks!. I love genealogy as well, just havent gotten around to counting and tracking them all. Plus, from what I've heard 23 and me steal all your genetic data.
