👀 Does this hold your attention? 🤔 Does it get the differentiators across? 🤯 or 😴?

Been putting a bunch of work into the video for our Product Hunt launch, and would love to hear opinions... critiques, "mehs", ideas for improvement, and kind words are all more than welcome! https://ditaboapp.b-cdn.net/Web%20&%20App%20Store%20Vids/ProdHunt-v1.mp4

Hey Frank I watched your video quite a few times. This criticism is all in good intention to help you: Overall: Feels a little disorganized / all over the place but gets the point across. 1- The video started off as a product walkthrough but quickly turned to why you created this app and your company beliefs. Then back to the app. This is fine, but you use a lot of "we." Instead I suggest you change the verbiage to direct more towards what you can do for the user and how Ditabo helps them. I completely understand that you didn't want Ditabo to be a meditation app with some throwaway quick sessions. However I feel this can be told in a quicker manner and not during a product demo. (put it before you dive into the demonstration or in a separate video "Why we created Ditabo." 2- I see 3 tabs in the beginning of the product demo on the app. (impact, accolades, more) However, I didn't really see the toggle between the two and the explanation of each tab. Throughout the video I was wondering what those darn tabs at the bottom do lol. (What is in the "more" tab, show us the "accolades" tab, etc.) 3- I feel like you don't talk about the tracking and accolades enough. It kind of ended abruptly without seeing how I can track my progress, as well as see my accolades / awards. Show more on this as this is a huge selling point. 4- I think this app has some great potential if you lead more with "Even with 5 minutes you can get your workout in with us" This is honestly the one selling point of the app. The fact that I can get my training done in as little as 5 minutes. Or on some other days I can up it to more. Also I like the fact of playing it as " Somedays you'll do physical movement with us, some days you'll have peaceful meditation. This gives your body and your mind a balanced workout. 5- App & UI looks clean, but for the demo is there anyway you can record from a device so the mouse pointer doesn't show? Hope this helps & best of luck at launch!

That's all excellent feedback @skillprepare! Thank you for taking the time to share it all. I'll need to revisit this video, and include much of what you shared. I feel like the vast majority of your insights are on point. I especially appreciate the feedback regarding the "why we created" stuff, and how that felt like a bit of a detour, as well as progress tracking and accolades being selling points that I should have highlighted more. Some of those sorts of things are hard to see through the eyes of a user when you're so immersed in them. The question of what should I talk about and what should I leave out when trying to keep a video short and informative is a challenge, so I definitely appreciate that. Anyhow, thanks for taking some time out of your Friday to give it a few watches. Much appreciated!
