Show HN: RecBox.io
I wanted to get two things from building an App
1) I wanted to learn how to build and deploy an app with react-native and google cloud.
2) Also, I recently purchased an item in a department store and gave my personal email address and I received my receipt as expected. But I also received a load of emails about promotions over the coming weeks which cluttered my inbox.
My App can be found here:
https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/recbox-io/id1378437194
and
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.recbox Are my receipts shared with advertisers? The app actually looks pretty useful, but I'm a little worried about that. Yeah, that's what I want to know too. I'd rather not my purchase data be shared with advertisers. The ads do not look at what you have purchased at all. I used Google Admob to help cover cost but these are generic ads and not based on what you have sent to your recbox email address. No, it does not share your info I'd suggest either a more descriptive name ("rec" being ambiguous) or a better icon with more than just the name. OK Thanks for your feedback. I will look to see if I can come up with a better logo. I'm a product designer and have just started messing around with react native, this looks like a cool and useful project. If you need design help / would like to collab - feel free to reach out. That would be great, drop me an email. but thats what Gmail promotion tab is for... isnt it? Hi - you are assuming everyone uses gmail . The other benefit is I am not always happy giving out my personal email address with a load of people in earshot. nice work! this seems really useful
