Ask HN: Critique my app idea – karaoke_without_little_slips_of_paper
Problem: every bar that does karaoke has a queue system with little sheets of paper<p>Solution: Smart Phone app (iOS and Android) that lets singers manage their position in queue<p>Benefits:<p>- you can see your location in queue.<p>- your phone buzzes when it&#x27;s your turn.<p>- you can change your song at last min.<p>- you can place yourself in queue with no song.<p>- you can place yourself in line for 2nd, 3rd, 4th times only if not crowded.<p>- DJ can message you with stuff like &quot;pick another song, not available&quot; or &quot;heads up, person ahead of you left, you&#x27;re next.&quot;<p>- Audience members can also use app to send messages to singers like &quot;great job!&quot;<p>How:<p>- There is a code displayed at DJ booth u have to enter into app to join room. This prevents random people from entering room and being trolls.<p>- The DJ sets code and creates room, and has special DJ access on his phone.<p>- DJ no longer needs paper or people verbally requesting songs. Everyone can get in line via the app.<p>- Maybe use tech like http:&#x2F;&#x2F;opengarden.com&#x2F;how-to&#x2F; to handle bars without good internet connections.
