Pros and cons of Jelly — a search engine for busy people app for iPhone and iPad

Jelly — a search engine for busy people app good for

Really well done and the concept is interesting. It would be nice to see where are people from without going on FB. It always good to feel helpful so thank you! To me its a great idea and a lovely app!
the idea of this app is really nice. it can be pretty helpful!
This app is very easy to use and the community is active and nice!
A lot of fun to mess around with but there needs to be some way to add friends, right now I have to copy paste to my twitter. Still needs a lot of work but I see potential.
The community actually answers and with care, so its a great way if finding answers! Also great design, very responsive app.
One of my answers is bannend (unjustified), and i GoT a thank you for it, but whenever i wanted to Look at my "thank you"s, Jelly crashes.

Some bad moments

The quality of the questions are bad and the quality of the answers are even worse. If I have a question about something I could write a question on here and wait a week or two for someone to google it for me at best or guess at worst or I can just google it myself and have an answer immediately. It could be fun to give people advice, but that just isnt what how the itinerant users of this app are using it. Theres nothing wrong with the app technically, its just missing the content that the developers were hoping for.
Pergunter is developing the same concept for more than two years now, with a better looking interface and wider network.
Havent we learned that an app with no content when you open it is an instant delete? This app drastically needs a "public questions" capability while its growing its user base...
Seems cool, downloaded it, connected my Facebook, my Twitter... Now what? Is no one seriously posting stuff, or is this broken? Am I doing it wrong? So alone :(
A perfect example of Silicon Valley relapsing its own platform for inside jokes.
This app relies entirely on other social networks, this shouldnt be labeled a social network at all. It had no content for itself and the community is pretty well restricted to who you have added on other networks.. No public bored or unique feature to give a reason to log into jelly. Ill post a picture on Facebook or tumblr and get a faster response (if google doesnt have the answer). The name and app picture are great, simple and memorable but the app is an empty experience with nothing to offer. Simply a starving leech hanging off the dead skin of Facebook
