Hi hi! So here is a sneak peek at the end-to-end app (the user side at least) for the remote covid test - built on Glide (and bits and pieces) with the help of many in this community (directly and passively with all the community posts).
13 mins - and some chatting with one of our agents in between (actually bug reporting, it is what it is
It’s been a fun project to be involved in, and I think I’ve developed a kind of love/hate relationship with @Mark_Turrell, as he’s continually pushed me way past my limits. The phrase “cannot be done” simply does not exist in his vernacular
I just hear a language I do not speak… then we chat and come up with a different approach (or I change the business requirement to make the problem go away
Speaking of which, I have an idea for ‘system time’…
Good to see your APP starts growing and walking faster than a baby.
Looks great the agent section and it’s really funny see you working as an agent, a friendly agent!
And the best of all (I think) is that you have shown just 60% of what your APP is able to do … your APP is a little but nice monster once one has known it internally
This is great @Mark_Turrell ! My partner might end up being one of your users as he’s visiting Berlin with his girlfriend in July/August. He’s flying into Luxemborg from San Diego, then Croatia and finally Berlin. He already took his vaccine shot here in the US so not sure of the exact legalities but I’ll let him know of your service.
Cool hopefully we do not need this type of app for the summer, but come Sept when it gets cold, dark, and wet, I am predicting more caution about covid, and likely more testing too.
I have just had @PabloMFalero build be a cool training system based on modules and topics, with embedded videos, progress tracking, etc - and then we will use webview to embed a third-party quiz app, and then zapier to bring the results back into glide via GS then relations.
Lots of cool things to play with and explore! Then share
Making screenshots so people (users, agents, partners) know how the app works. Interestingly, we started with some well-trained users doing this… but they did not know the edge cases (such as letting the time expire) so it was better for me to do everything.
I hope this helps folk think about how to make your app more accessible to people
Good luck with the show tomorrow @Mark_Turrell ! Brilliant looking app. I imagine the coming weeks will be an exciting roller coaster ride for you and your team. Viel Glück
It will be fine - not my first rodeo, so to speak but thanks for the kind thoughts and support. It will be a lot of fun and stunning how much can be created in 2 months.
Oh, since you’re doing the media rounds. Is Clubhouse big over there in Berlin? At least with some of the networks I’m involved with here in both Silicon Valley and the social impact space, it’s been fairly popular so not sure if you can somehow do a soft sell of your app via some trending topic/discussion on there.
