Build Recommendations

Prioritized actions based on user demand and market opportunity.

Build mobile-first spatial collaboration app with rock-solid stability

35% of complaints cite crashes/freezes. Prioritize performance and stability over feature richness to capture frustrated Spatial users seeking reliable alternative.

Implement simple, intuitive avatar customization from first launch

30% struggle with avatar editing, with many unable to find the feature at all. Make this a core onboarding step with clear UI, not a hidden menu option.

Design navigation controls with mobile touch/gestures as primary input

28% report navigation issues. Don't port desktop/VR controls—design specifically for mobile with intuitive gestures, auto-unstuck features, and clear movement feedback.

Create feature parity between mobile and desktop from day one

Users expect full functionality on mobile, not a crippled companion app. Build cross-platform core features before platform-specific additions.

Offer transparent one-time purchase or easy subscription management

Users are actively hostile to subscription dark patterns. Clear pricing and instant cancellation builds trust and reduces churn complaints.
