Short is fine. The one thing that tripped you up is my favorite kind of feedback.

Questions

What is Crate?

An app for your record collection. Snap a cover or type your records in, and the jukebox picks something from your own crate. It also finds record stores within 15 miles. Some stores can be missing.

Is it free?

Free in beta.

Is there an Android version?

iPhone only.

What's TestFlight?

Apple's free app for trying beta apps. Install it first, then open the beta link to get Crate. When you sign up in Crate, check your spam folder if the code email doesn't show up.

How do I sign in?

With your email for now. Sign in with Apple and Google are coming in a later beta build.

How do I send feedback?

In Crate, take a screenshot and tap "Share Beta Feedback". You can also use TestFlight > Crate > Send Beta Feedback. Type your message and end it with "Venmo: @username".

Where does my Venmo name go, and when do I get paid?

At the end of your feedback message. It's used only to send you the $5, within 24 hours of your feedback.

Can I get $5 more than once?

No. One $5 per person and per Venmo account. Copied or empty messages aren't paid.

Does the $5 depend on good feedback?

No. It's for honest beta feedback, good or bad, not an App Store review or rating. Tell us about something you actually tried.

What feedback helps?

What confused you, what broke, and what you wish it did. Short is fine.

Is my shop in there?

Crate finds stores from a map, and some are missing. If yours isn't there, tell us in your feedback.
