Based on 32 real App Store reviews, here's exactly what users wish Time Builder apps would build.
Features users are literally asking for in their reviews, ranked by demand.
"I downloaded the app using my same account onto my phone. That somehow dele"
"Great but we need the ability to change date format -mm/dd/yyyy. Also, cloud back-up"
"it does not support any date system other than the normal American one (Chinese and Hebrew calendars would be nic"
"It is impossible to make timelines that stretch over more than 4000 years in this app."
"The main problem is trying to export it to a word processor to manipulate the text (size, formatting, etc)"
"there is no way to export my information to a txt file or print to a pdf"
"The timeline doesn't scale well, it's just one long vertical timeline with no customization."
"There are no formatting options."
"it only allows one photo per event/memory. Pretty useless for helping me remember events"
Prioritized actions based on user demand and market opportunity.
44% of reviews report catastrophic data loss. This is the #1 blocker preventing users from trusting timeline apps. Version history would allow recovery from accidental deletions.
25% of users need historical/fictional dates beyond 4713 BCE. Writers, historians, and worldbuilders are underserved. Allow custom year formats and unlimited BCE dates.
Users need to print, share, and format timelines outside the app. Current JPG export is blurry and unusable. This is essential for students, writers, and professionals.
16% cite zero support response. When users lose weeks of data and get no help, they become hostile reviewers. Support is critical for retention and reputation.
Memory tracking requires multiple images per milestone. Current 1-2 photo limit makes the app 'pretty useless for helping me remember events' according to users.
