Why Wanna Try does not show thumbnails
Every save app is a grid of pictures. Ours is a list of words. Here is why that is a feature, not a limitation.
Open any bookmarking app and you get a wall of thumbnails. It looks rich. It is useless: a picture of a cafe does not tell you the area, the price, or whether it is quiet. You end up re-watching the reel to find out — which is the problem you were trying to solve.
What a save should look like
A title you would say out loud. Under it, the three things you need to decide: where, what it costs, why you saved it. Then the details in full — key points, the recipe, the plan — as text you can search, share, and read with one thumb.
That is the entire design. A category tile instead of a picture, so the list scans fast. Serif titles, because they are meant to be read. No infinite feed, because the app should be closed most of the time.
What it makes possible
- Search that works. You can search "plugs" and find the cafe, because the reel's words were kept.
- Ask. "Which recipe under 30 minutes?" is answerable only if the recipes are text.
- Speed. A list of 200 saves opens instantly. A grid of 200 thumbnails does not.
- Sharing that means something. The shared page carries the ingredients and the plan, not a cover image.
We keep the reel's link, so the original is one tap away. We just do not put it between you and the details.
Save it before you forget it.
Wanna Try keeps the reels, links, bills and voice notes you want to act on — and brings them back when you can.
