Howbout social calendar retweetet

Just dropped a new episode of May I Have Your Retention Please with the founder of @howbout_app, the social calendar app with 5M+ users and 100M+ events added.
We talked about how they grew without a consumer app background, raised their Series A off retention (not vibes), and why one simple feature quietly 3x’d their stickiness.
We also got into:
– Why memes still work in 2025
– The power of “Chief Friendship Officers”
– How TikTok carousels, not videos, drove virality
– Why they delayed design and branding
– The invite wall strategy they refuse to kill
– The one metric investors actually cared about
This one’s a crash course in building real utility-first consumer apps - not just shiny dopamine traps.
@NeilTanna36 is a legend for sharing the full story and getting really deep into the details. Please enjoy, follow him, and subscribe to the pod.

You care about your friends, you care about what they're doing, and you care about keeping up with the things in their lives that matter to them.
We get it. That's why we made a social calendar app for live updates from your friends, so you can always be in the know of what they're up to, what's new in their lives, and what they've got coming up.
Since we launched, our users have been obsessed with keeping their friends updated on everything in their lives - and with 5 million downloads and over 100 million plans made on the app, we MEAN everything.
But now, it's our turn to overshare 🍿

@howbout_app hey you have updated the app now it crashes for me constantly. My whole life plans are in the app it’s so frustrating

The product strategy here could be similar to @Flighty. Build a calendar app valuable enough that people feel compelled to document their personal lives in it. Once individuals start using it for their own benefit, build out the social side of it.

@MartyFullardUAE @WhatsApp Howbout does this, great app but hardest part is getting people to download when we already use WhatsApp 🤷🏼♀️ tried it for a sports team, works well but no one wants ANOTHER app 😫

Idea for @WhatsApp - a doodle poll type calendar thing for friend group chats. Which becomes a register for social occasions. And then a calendar with reminders. Mark birthdays too.
