Quick feedback if the founders are watching this: Please allow controls on your keynote video. The video production quality looks great. But I am not watching it if I don't know if it's a 30s one or a 30minute one.
Edit: My feedback is that it's too slow. I wish the features were shown off before I had to get a layman's education for several minutes. I'm also really concerned that his uber will arrive before the pizza.
I like the device. It seems easy enough for my elderly father to use, and he won't lose it as "one of the websites" he can ask for help. There's something important about the focus a physical device brings; he can remember how to use it, where it's at, etc. The GPT UI I built him gets lost in his bookmarks, and he forgets it exists.
A while ago I came across a website with a video player that gaslights you with a logarithmic progress bar. It had me fooled for a while into thinking the video has only 2-3 minutes left, before I finally clicked the pop-out button in Firefox and realized I was only 20% of the way through a 45 minute video.
Is there a Firefox extension for android that can take over the js crap that people call video players and give something decent? I know there are open in x but that isn't seamless. I just want a video player that is standard across the Board.
Like safari on iOS used to turn any video on browser to a standard video player window with normal controls.
Not the same website, but the video player was made by a Brazillian company called VTurb and they're using the same logarithmic progress bar on their front page. If you inspect element it's literally called "smartplayer-fake-bar"
Also please describe it in pictures and words too. Video only really limits where I can watch this. I’m in a waiting currently and I’m not about to just play a video like some sort of psycho.

Funny enough, I think them releasing only a video perfectly aligns with their product and why I think this will fail. They seem to have completely overestimated how often people want to read or write and underestimated the number of scenarios where needing to talk or listen to my phone is inappropriate.
I'm assuming if you had this phone, you'd feel like just as much of a psycho if you had to dictate every command to it while sitting in that same waiting room.
