Downloaded it, tried it and immediately uninstalled it. I'm not sure why you need my birthday or my gender identity. I also think that it's silly that you need to have friends using it to use it. There's no way I'm inviting friends to use an app that I can't really use until I've already invited friends.
We need date of birth due to age requirements of social media unfortunately.
As for requiring friends to use it, we are very early stage at the moment and don't have enough content to populate the feed of users without populating it with their friends' content. But I definitely appreciate the feedback thank you!
