Final Words
Let us finish up the review here with some pros and cons which we noticed while using it.
Pros
Let us first discuss positive points associated,
• New concept.
• Neat and clean User Interface not too many options are available making the simple yet effective to use.
• Does not lacks anywhere works smoothly.
Cons
There are cons too associated with the Ideaswipe which we would like to discuss,
• On the one hand, developers asked user to invite friends, but how can we invite our friends if it is only available for iOS devices. Everyone is not using iOS.
• The concept of the application is good but there should be option to share the ideas on social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter, etc. so that ideas can reach more and more people and user can get more and more reaction to their ideas.
At last we can hope you read all the cons carefully. We can also hope developers will also read above cons and will work in the direction of the improvement to get the most out of their efforts. The concept of the IdeaSwipe is new and unique so you can try it once. The application, IdeaSwipe is free so go with it and it won’t take much space on your device. Try it once and share your thoughts with us through like, share and comments.
