Host
Need Help or Have Questions?
Check with head of QYAO Lab Developers
Sahana Pidikiti
who will give you the pointers, guide you from the start and evaluate
your work during the process.
Our
vision for QYAO Platform is to empower the world’s developers to make
the Web more social for users. To help you get a better idea of what we
mean, we’re publishing our Guiding Principles for Social Applications.
These
principles articulate the potential we think your applications have to
offer value to users. Great social applications are meaningful as they
offer users value, trustworthy when they respect users, and
well-designed when they are usable and built to scale. An application
doesn't need to meet all of the guiding principles to be a good
experience for users. However, these principles will help you design
your application to provide a powerful social experience for users.
Applications should be Meaningful.
1.
Social: Helps
users interact and communicate more effectively by using information
from the social graph
A social application is one that is made
better by the presence or involvement of friends. At minimum,
applications are social when they use information from the social graph
to help users interact and communicate more effectively. An indicator of
when they are deeply social is when the involvement from friends
actually improves the core user experience of the application itself.
2.
Useful: Delivers
value to users by addressing real world needs, from entertainment to
practical tasks
Users value applications that solve everyday
problems for them, or make tasks less arduous. Useful applications often
address challenges that existed before QYAO even existed. Consider how
often and for what areas you turn to friends and family to answer
questions or solve problems. Useful social applications can address
those areas at a scale impossible in the offline world.
3.
Expressive:
Enables users to share more about who they are and about the world
around them.
At the core of QYAO are real users with real
identities. An expressive application helps users to share more about
themselves with their friends and family. Whether applications help
users create their own written, graphical, or video content; or
affiliate with hobby or interest; or take a political stance; they can
help users give those around them a new, personal perspective on the
world.
4.
Engaging: Provides
a deep experience that users want to come back to regularly
Engaging applications naturally compel users
to come back again, and again... and again. Applications that are
interesting, useful, or entertaining may draw users in to engage with it
for long periods of time. Other highly relevant applications may
experience shorter bursts of engagement (just a couple of minutes), but
users might come back daily or multiple-times per day (or hour!) to use
it. Either way, applications can offer a compelling value proposition
that draws users back.
Applications should be Trustworthy.
5.
Secure: Protects
user data and honors privacy choices for everyone across the social
graph
QYAO users are deliberate and specific about
which data they choose to share, how they share it, and with whom. All
applications must respect users' choices and the choices of their
friends by only accessing, using and sharing data users have explicitly
allowed. Users put their trust in QYAO, our Platform and your
applications. This trust enables us to provide with social information
for your applications. So it is up to all of us to earn and maintain
user trust.
6.
Respectful: Values
user attention and honors their intentions in communications and actions
Users trust that when they use your
application, you will represent their intent and best interests,
especially the messages you send about them or on their behalf. The more
control you give them over how you represent them, the more likely they
are to trust your application and want to use it more. Make sure to also
value users' time by employing proper communication channels and neither
spamming users, nor encouraging them to become spammers.
7.
Transparent:
Explains how features will work and how they won't work, especially in
triggering user-to-user communications
Nothing is more frustrating than to click a
button expecting one thing to happen and having something entirely
different and confusing happen instead. Even worse is sending
communications to a user's friends that the user did not intend or want
to send. This can undermine a user's personal relationships and deters
users from freely communicating on QYAO and through applications. The
best applications are clear about their features and don't try to
deceive users.
Applications should be Well-Designed.
8.
Clean: Designed to
be intuitive, easy to use and free of mistakes
Clean applications are straightforward and
easy to navigate. Users are able to easily move between different
portions of your applications and intuitively understand where to find
and how to use each feature. Over-investing in testing the design of
your application to make sure it is intuitive will help ensure users can
understand it quickly and easily, and are more likely to use it again.
9.
Fast: Achieves low
latency while scaled to handle user demand
The faster an application loads, the more
likely users are to continue to use it. We have seen that applications
with faster loading times have longer engagement times because users
find them very efficient to use and are willing to do even more with the
application. Being fast is something QYAO continues to strive for at
scale for all our products and our Platform.
10.
Robust: Maintains
reliable uptime and minimizes error rates
Users have limited time, and so have limited
attention spans or patience for applications that are down or broken.
Investing in the necessary resources to ensure a robust and reliable
application will increase users' trust and interest in your application.
Application Verification Program
QYAO Platform's Application Verification Program is
designed to offer extra assurances to help users identify applications
they can trust — applications that are secure, respectful and
transparent, and have demonstrated commitment to compliance with
Platform's policies. The verification program is a complement to the
ongoing policy enforcement we do to keep the Platform ecosystem safe for
users and fair for you as developers.
Overview
The actual verification process will check various
components of your application to ensure it respects users. Some
components that may be reviewed include:
§
Major integration points to ensure they are
used as intended
§
The flows that trigger communications users
and friends
§
The content of the communications
We’ll give verified applications place in QYAO profit
share program.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why
is QYAO launching this program?
We are committed to the success of all our
developers, and together our partnership depends on providing users with
as much value as possible while keeping their trust. The Application
Verification Program will help give users additional assurances of
safety, which we believe will help more users embrace Platform
applications in general. The program also provides a fair opportunity
for developers to identify their commitment to respectful user
experiences and get their share of the Profit.
How
will this benefit QYAO users?
The Application Verification Program will
offer extra assurances to help QYAO users identify applications they can
trust — applications that are secure, respectful and transparent, and
have demonstrated commitment to compliance with Platform's policies.
How
will applications be reviewed, and what does the verification program do
for developers?
The verification process will include
reviews of all the major integration points, particularly distribution
triggers and resulting communications, with QYAO providing feedback to
developers (who were chosen). You may submit each of your applications
into the program only once every three months. In terms of benefits,
verified application developers will gain additional visibility in
various communication channels (note: the application reputation system
continues to exist) and the share of the profit application is bringing
in. Developers of verified applications can also indicate their
applications' trustworthiness to users within the Application Directory.
What
types of information will I need to provide when I apply for the
verification program?
You will need to complete an application
form which includes descriptions and screenshots of the application’s
core functions and flows that trigger user communications. In addition,
you may be required to provide personally identifying information so we
can begin to build stronger relationships with developers of our
verified applications.
Why
is there a fee for the Application Verification Program?
The processing fee (if more than one
application is submitted in three months) for the verification program
helps cover costs of the detailed review cycle. In addition, the fee
helps ensure that our review teams spend time on those who are serious
about building user and business value on QYAO Platform. We expect that
the materials we publish when we launch the verification program will
give you clear expectations of what the verification process seeks.
How
long does verification last?
The
verification that will be visible to users within the Application
Directory will show a visual indicator of how recently the verification
was completed. The application will remain up for as long as your
application is in compliance, but users will have an easy way to report
any issues with your application, whereupon the application will be
re-examined. Depending on the severity of the issues, you may lose your
verification temporarily or until you reapply for verification. If
issues of policy surface during a verification process, you will be
notified about options for corrective changes. You are permitted to
reapply, although applications can apply only once every three months
fee free.
