Show HN: landing pages for iOS apps with interactive, usable demos

My portfolio looks different when I'm logged in vs. when I open up the URL in incognito window. That's ok (HN does it too) but you should give me some way of previewing the guest-view. E.g. https://kickfolio.com/chirag?preview or something.

Bug: When I'm logged in, https://kickfolio.com/chirag/tip-of-my-tongue and https://kickfolio.com/chirag/ktype show "We're sorry, but something went wrong."

Also, is there any way for someone to claim their own app? I test added 'Angry Birds' to my portfolio and it worked. What if someone else adds my app?

Thanks for the feedback! I've just spotted your error in the logs so will work to fix it today.

Preview view is a good idea - will see about how we can implement it.

We're planning on adding a dispute resolution process for apps. One of the use cases we've identified is that a business might want to feature an app as a marketing tool, while the freelancer who made it might want it as a portfolio tool. Automatic verification doesn't seem possible, so we're currently building a manual dispute resolution process.

Maybe there's some way for you to generate a special key/phrase that the app owner can embed in their app store listing to prove that they own the app.

That gave me an idea - to resolve disputes, we could simply send a link to the iTunes-listed support email and have people verify through that.

Don't want to make it mandatory, but in cases where it becomes an issue, it could work well.

Thanks!

Email to support would be a great idea. Maybe you can show a confirmed/verified icon for apps that have been verified in this manner.
