You\u2019re presented with a series of polls, 12 at a time, then four options of friends to choose from. Your responses are entirely anonymous.<\/p>\n<p>It asks questions like \u201cWho should DJ every party?\u201d and \u201cWho is the next international fashion icon?\u201d Then the user gets a notification about what their friends selected them for.<\/p>\n<p>The app requires the user to be at least 13 and indicate their grade level. The app is only available in a few states: Florida, Washington, Texas, California, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Georgia, and Indiana and is only available for iPhone.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the limited availability, the app analyst firm Sensor Tower estimates that TBH has been installed more than 700,000 times as of September and Apptopia estimates that it has 46,000 daily active users.<\/p>\n<p>What caught our attention is the trend for apps to put anonymous reviews in a positive light, as a lot of apps with this kind of reviewing system can be perceived in a negative light. It will be interesting to see if this trend continues to grow in popularity and underpins the strategy for the\u00a0success of future apps.<\/p>\n<p><em>At The Center for Generational Kinetics, we separate fact from fiction when it comes to Millennial, Gen Z and generations through original research and strategy <\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/millennials-driving-force-behind-better-snack-category\/info@genhq.com\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Contact us today<\/em><\/a><em><u>\u00a0<\/u><\/em><em>to see how we can help you solve generational challenges with customers and employees. \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"\/gen-z-2017\/\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Click here to\u00a0<em>check out the results from our new national Study on Gen Z!\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In line with current Gen Z trends in mobile apps are those apps designed for anonymously reviewing your friends.
