Why tool-like apps. To be a community?

Non-famous program ape

The mobile internet is booming, with billions of apps on the market. There are a lot of tools, I saw a problem that day, that is: why the tool app. Whether it's practical or not, you like to add a community? Of course, the following answers are also multifarious.

And their answer is also very correct, very in place.

In fact, it's not hard to understand, tool apps. But a tool of things, only real users in the use of it, will be remembered to open, then the problem is: but the tool, that type of application software every day to start the user is less, the old user is very little to open. So need to join the community such communication things, add users of the viscosity, improve the use of the app, so that users form a dependency, develop a habit. The tool function solves some user problems for some in-depth, personalized questions. The best way to solve the mutual food between users.

But. I like the answer of one of the users: every tool-making person has a platform heart. That's true. In a mixed-use market. How to make your own software fire up, and survive is very difficult, especially to do tool-like app.

A few days ago, I saw a remark saying: "The app is dead and the service is immortal, although I don't allow the first half of the sentence, but the second sentence is quite right."

This is also a tool-like app development and survival of a portal.

That is to do the tools first. And then cut into service. Tools are the foundation, service is the pursuit. This is suitable for the entrepreneur who makes the app. This is actually the voice of the user.

Tools but user-friendly. Service is the real service users, for example, you do a calculator app. The user is only going to open it when there is a calculation, and use it. Then you add the accounting function on this calculator, plus calculate the fuel consumption function, that is not the user will be added a lot of other? That may be what you would say: Plus these features are also instrumental in the function, yes. This is really the case, but suppose you add the relevant bookkeeping service near the bookkeeping function, plus the relevant financial services, so you can make a profit. Larry Wealth related articles and add some financial functions, fuel consumption function is the same reason. From fuel consumption to car-related services. The example that may be cited is not very appropriate. But the truth is very right.

Free is a good business model. However, the premise is that your product has a very good performance with a lot of users. There are only two apps that make a tool. There are only two simple purposes: to help users solve this problem and make money. Tool is to help users solve this problem, service is to make money.

In fact, to make a tool app, the most essential and most should be focused on good products. Make the product a good experience. It's powerful, and that's the hard truth. Instead of thinking about how to run a community to do traffic monetization.

So through my analysis, the tool class app is not necessary to add the community. Simply by making the product good, tools and services can achieve the purpose you want, and that is to monetize the app. Good tool and service is the King of product survival.
