    When My App Failed Because It Only Worked on Tuesdays

    0
    By AM on September 10, 2024 Uncategorized

    I had a vision, sharp and clear,
    An app so grand, it would spread cheer.
    It’d change the world in just one click,
    A tech revolution, smooth and slick.

    I launched it proud with hopes so high,
    Expecting users to multiply.
    The code was tight, the design supreme,
    This app would fulfill every dream!

    But something strange began to show,
    Users dropped off— where did they go?
    The reviews came in, not very kind,
    “Your app is glitchy, we’ve changed our mind.”

    One star here, two stars there,
    People said it wasn’t fair.
    “It works just fine, then goes away,
    And shuts us out the next whole day!”

    Confused, I thought, “That can’t be right,
    The app works well, day and night!”
    But soon I noticed, much to my dismay,
    My app only worked on one day.

    Tuesday came, it was shining bright,
    The app worked perfectly, no bugs in sight.
    But come Wednesday, and oh dear,
    The app would disappear!

    Monday, Thursday, Friday too,
    My app just sat there, nothing to do.
    Sunday, Saturday? Nope, no luck,
    I couldn’t even test it—stuck!

    I checked the code, line by line,
    Thinking, “Where’s this flaw of mine?”
    Until I saw a scheduling quirk,
    I’d coded it wrong—it only worked!

    On Tuesdays, that was the key,
    No wonder my app failed so miserably!
    The customers raged, the tweets were hot,
    I was now the joke on every tech thought.

    “An app that sleeps six days a week?
    Only on Tuesday does it peak?”
    Memes were made, jokes did spread,
    And my investor? He turned bright red.

    He called me up, frustration high,
    “An app for one day? Are you sly?”
    I stammered out a nervous reply,
    “Fixing it now, I’ll give it a try!”

    But the damage was done, too far to mend,
    And soon my app came to an end.
    People mocked, and I had to flee,
    The one-day app, it wasn’t meant to be.

    Yet, in my mind, I saw a twist,
    A new idea too hard to resist.
    Why fix it now, when I can say,
    “This app is built for one perfect day!”

    I rebranded it with some flair,
    “Tuesday’s App”—beyond compare!
    “Get things done in just one shot,
    On Tuesdays only, we hit the spot!”

    Soon, users came back in droves,
    Hyped up for the Tuesday shows.
    “One day’s enough for all your needs!
    Tuesdays only, but with great speed!”

    Suddenly, it was all the rage,
    Tuesday became the app’s big stage.
    People planned their lives around,
    That one app day, so profound.

    The downloads soared, I couldn’t believe,
    A joke of an app that could achieve!
    What started out as a total fail,
    Became a quirky tech success tale.

    So if your app flops and hits the wall,
    Don’t give up—just rethink it all!
    You never know what’s just one tweak,
    To turn your failure into a peak!
