# Question-Based Social Apps 'Ryact' Lets Users Ask Yes or No Questions to Incite a Quick Response By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2018-05-03 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ryact References: [betalist](https://betalist.com/startups/ryact) & [ryactapp](http://www.ryactapp.com) Asking someone a question via text messaging or on social media usually takes a while to get a response or can become cluttered, so the 'Ryact' app aims to help streamline the experience for simple questions. The app works by letting you simply pose a question to friends and set a timer to ensure you get your answer as quickly as possible. Users can only answer yes or no to help accelerate the response time, while also letting all of the minute details be worked out after the person has agreed or declined. The 'Ryact' social app speaks to the increasing digital lifestyle that many consumers are leading that is also leading to information overload and a subsequent need for straightforward methods to communicate. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.4/10 - Popularity: 40% | Activity: 55% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Mobile](https://www.trendhunter.com/mobile) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Question-based Communication:** Creating apps that streamline the communication experience by only allowing yes or no responses. - **Timer-based Responses:** Developing platforms that use timers to accelerate response times for quick answer questions. - **Simplified Messaging:** Developing messaging apps that focus on simplifying communication for quick and straightforward messages. ### Who This Affects Most - **Social Media:** Social media platforms can benefit from integrating yes or no question features to facilitate quick communication. - **Messaging Apps:** Messaging apps can use timers and yes or no question format to provide users with a quick and streamlined messaging experience. - **Customer Service:** Customer service platforms can use simplified messaging and the question-based format to provide users with faster and more straightforward responses to their queries. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [AI-Powered Texting Assistant Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rply-mac-app.md) - [Social Media-Inspired Hookup Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grindr-right-now.md) - [Algorithm-Free Social Media Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rtro.md) - [Thought-Provoking Social Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thoughtprovoking-social-app.md) - [Swipe-Based Restaurant Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/social-eats.md) - [Social Video Reaction Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seen-app.md) - [Private Social Photo Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retro-app.md) - [Social Review Platform Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-ping-app.md) - [Positivity-Focused Social Medias](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/slay-cool.md)
