What's wrong with my ProductHunt presentation?

I know this is not a landing page "per se", because I do not have a landing page for my app, but I'm posting here because I thought this was the best place.

My ProductHunt presentation has currently no upvote, and I'm wondering why. My app is not a scam and provides added value.

The app is an iOS scanner with real OCR (meaning it outputs searchable PDF files), and its dead simple yet powerful.

Here is the link to the page : https://www.producthunt.com/posts/quickscan-a-free-scanner-with-ocr

Any advice? Kind of new to this 'presentation' thing, so ... Thanks :-)

    There's nothing wrong with your product @yellow8

    I'm assuming these:

    • The profile icon of your PH campaign can be more attractive
    • Those images should follow the size suggested by PH
    • More empathy and a sweet pitch about your product
    • You need to make sure your friends and community know your PH campaign and generate some early support!

    I'm also learning, so nothing much I can really tell. But I keen to hear your advice on my campaign too

      Thank you for the suggestions! Will definitely improve this!
      Checking your campaign now :-)

    Few low hanging fruits

    • Needs improved excitement and emotion. Not marketing fluff but a differentiator that other doc readers aren't saying.
    • Improve real screenshots (lighting is off, just doesn't look polished) or replace using vector illustrations
    • Improve the copy with differentiator and the benefits you can use right now

    Finally, don't be so focused on ProductHunt upvotes. PH gravitates towards "hot ideas" or good looking apps. Your app would crush areas of the internet where people need document scanning fast.

      Thanks mattlo, this is very interesting.
      I'll try to improve my communication (and the screenshot).
      Thanks for the advice on PH!
      You gave me motivation :-)
