A few months ago, Jotly, an app parody video was uploaded to YouTube highlighting the world’s insatiable urge to share and rate everything in their lives — no matter how mundane — with the entire world. After watching the vid, the first thing that came to mine and many others’ minds was how fun an actual Jotly app would be. That is, if the app actually existed.
Well, as it turns out, that was exactly the overwhelming feedback Firespotter, developers of the dish rating restaurant app, Nosh, received after releasing the video and and guess what? A fully working version of Jotly was just released onto the Android Market.
Simply put — this app is amazing. Jotly lets you rate absolutely everything in your life, without the fuss of installing separate apps just to share little snippets of your life with friends online. Not only was Jotly already voted 2013’s app of the year, but users are already reporting that the app is better than dragon slaying, resulting in the uninstalling of every other app on their device. Because really, there is no longer any use for them. Here are just a few of Jotly’s features:
– Search for nearby items. Even if it’s a piece of lint, it might be really awesome. Jotly will help you find it
– Find the best and worst things at any place. Like ducks? Jotly will show you big and little ducks
– Share your ratings with everyone in the world
– Earn influence points and become a “Top Jotter”
– Move around freely. Jotly will automatically go where your phone does
– Sign up without Facebook or Twitter
