The article might have turned out a bit text-heavy. The blog format is being tailored (always), so your feedback would be very valuable.
My wondering is that these companies already have a messaging platform and attempt to cover an absolute majority of connections. So, it must be super easy to implement something like structured talk history.
Actually, I'm building the one, but this is another topic, I suppose.
Thanks for the hack. "Tasks to touch" sound interesting.
Also, resorting to default note-taking functionality is probably a matter of a value understanding: people don't see how managing these relationships with a specific solution can benefit them.
1) It's not clear for me how color segmentation groups were picked in the first place. Are they mutually exclusive?
2) Would be great to make this interactive. There is a substantial cognitive effort to imagine these methods from the name of few words (good exercise but come on).
Please, have a try of Android app and share what you think.
Also would love to hear your opinion on the concept of audio feed in general. I'm looking forward to implement complete audio feed with different channels and recommendations. Why is there no/not much such products among popular?
*About the product*
Recently I've released a Red Hood app - attentive audio navigator for people. It would be useful for ones who live in big cities and spend a lot of time every day to commute from one point to another. Red Hood provides a user with thorough audio commands along the route.
Features to focus on: 1) Designed for travelling by foot and public transport. You can build path and move along without taking the phone out. 2) Custom geomessages with intro or interesting fact can be placed in any location. Other users will hear having the journey more immersive. 3) You can fetch the places of interest nearby and hear more about them doing a free walk. No special touristic routes, just free exploration.
We believe that citizens should have a specially tuned companion to make the longest routes with the finest experience. That's why there is a focus on the Red Hood being the convenient and useful audio navigator for any person.

How do you evaluate the prospects of a mobile audio navigation? Which groups of people it would bring the biggest value to? I've came up with the few (couriers, travellers, commuters) and interested to discuss more specific categorization.
So, I want to talk about perspectives of audio sharing in future. Will it be the most proliferated format to express thoughts and share news in your opinion? Or will such format be short videos(Tik-tok) / smth more advanced (like 3D models, short animations, whatever)?
I think audio notes will definitely step up. Reasons: 1) People in big cities spend a lot of time to commute to work from home and back. And cities grow faster than travel speed. The most convenient ways to interact with information on the road - audio, as far as hands in public transport, bike, car are usually occupied. I performed a review among technopark residents, which showed that 8/10 people consume audio content on the road. 2) Voice processing methods are close to advance. People tend to use audio messaging more(from reviews) along with voice assistants. 3) Music streaming services, of course. There is already popular and working business model of consuming audio content on freemium base.
What do you think, what are the obstacles in the way for services which allow to share short audios?
