i_rock098 Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 Still the ease of shopping on the website is unparalleled especially during sale when you are going through thousands of bullshit tee's to find that one tee you like the most, scrolling through hundreds of products using your tiny thumb is a massive pain in the thumb 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arj_Gamer_2012 Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 I read an article on flipkart going app only.. it said having an app allows them to skip cookies. This way when a user surfs on browsers and gives away the type of product he is interested in flipkart by way of making their services app only gets to keep browsing behavior a secret. Ps:- e com firm going app only have another advantage. A lot of people like my mom who are mobile savvy and not comp savy are using mobile apps like anything. And kids these days are on phone 24/7. Again my first issue always with any app in India, the infidelity of mob internet (3g/4g)...It is so off putting...I mean if I have to connect to wifi to use the app, I would rather use the web browser...e.g. I never have been able to book UBER cab at one go..Always need 4-5 freaking attempts..And this is Airtel 3G i'm talking of @Bangalore...Not to mention the agonizing user experience in most apps..

AtheK Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 Airtel has actually gone to dogs be it eg or broadband, there was a time they were awesome now they are just money whoring leaving user experience behind. Yup app only could def backfire but I am sure they would have done their research, and for some reason I have a feeling they will succeed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noone is denying this..This would be a valid argument for debating if an app should exist.. Yup app only could def backfire but I am sure they would have done their research, and for some reason I have a feeling they will succeed They 1st tried it with myntra..Myntra's sales have gone down by 15 % after going app only..

Also I see no reason they should stick to myntra as a separate app if they decide to go app oy, maybe merge them both. Maybe that is the plan.

Ya and other hina was myntra was no way close to what FK is, I think pretty much everyone has FK app already installed. The problem with there success is that others will follow suit, so guess time to sell them casual browsing laptops is almost at its demise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtheK Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 (edited) No you can, but for now I think it makes more sense to wait for such an announcement. And ya i guess lets stick back to online deal discussion Edited July 13, 2015 by AtheK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funnyadit Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 No you can but for now I think it makes more sense to wait for such an announcement Yeah, FK were actually telling about going full app approach before as well I think, so the decision made is it final now or still under discussions??

Shantz Posted July 15, 2015 Report Share Posted July 15, 2015 Yeah, FK were actually telling about going full app approach before as well I think, so the decision made is it final now or still under discussions??Looks to be final (or at least in advanced stages). Some of the folks I follow on twitter (one of them is a bigshot at FK) mentioned it going app only from sep onwards in some casual remark.
