📌 Project Overview

Qobbo is an innovative content-saving and organization app designed to help users store, categorize, and retrieve content from any platform—including TikTok, Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), YouTube, and websites.

The app allows users to save videos, articles, images, and documents effortlessly and revisit them later through automated reminders and structured categories. Initially developed exclusively for iOS, the goal was to accelerate launch and testing before expanding into Android and a wider market.

Company & Business Context

Qobbo is a content-saving & organization startup, aimed at helping users store and manage digital information across multiple platforms.

Despite a successful technical execution, the project struggled with user acquisition due to limited marketing efforts.

🔍 Lessons & Strategic Insights

✅ User acquisition & marketing must be prioritized alongside development.

✅ Features should be driven by data, user needs, and real value, prioritizing impact over assumptions, effort over guesswork, and usability over opinion.

✅ A solid backend architecture can future-proof an app for multi-platform expansion.
