A few days back, Dhanashree<\/a> pointed me towards a new app<\/a> on Facebook. This is based on the about-to-start show on Star Plus ‘Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass se tez hain’ ( which is the desi version of ‘Are you smarter than a 5th grader?<\/a>‘) The show has been promoted heavily on TV, and the application has been conceptualised and created by RMG Connect<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I’m not sure if I’ve seen any online ads for the show, and a google search took me to the homepage<\/a> for the show. Before we get into the application, my first take is that the site as well as the application could do with a bit of cross promo help, not just with each other, maybe even with the TV ads, and on mobile. I didn’t hear about it until i got the link. Of course, all that depends on how much stickiness they want for the site\/application. Some of the winners get a chance to go on the shoe, but if the only idea is to push viewership, then maybe not.<\/p>\n

As Dhanashree mentioned, the very idea of an app based on an SRK hosted show has the potential of a viral.\u00a0So, the concept in itself would get some takers.\u00a0For instance, i added the app, and sidestepped the ‘invite friends’ part, but noticed that by the next day, 3 of my friends had added it too. But, IMHO the finish could’ve been slightly better, not just in terms of looks, but also the jerkiness of showing the next question, and the spelling mistakes,\u00a0for instance. The\u00a0‘contest rules’ is almost hidden, i didn’t see a quick 3-5 step up guide on how to play, and in general, the navigation is a tad unfriendly. I did like the box design though, on the profile page, though I’m still a toddler \ud83d\ude42 (thats even less than first standard pass).<\/p>\n

I wonder if they’ll use the kind of stuff that say, Text Twist does, which pushes itself at you saying ‘XYZ has beaten your highest score’. But the very fact that they built a facebook app itself is a good thing that has to be commended<\/p>\n

until next time, passing standards<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
