My guest on this episode of the podcast is Niels Hoven, the CEO of Mentava, a tutoring app that helps top-performing students achieve their potential. In this episode, Niels and I discuss:

The special design considerations inherent in building an app for children;
How the interface of an app needs to be adapted to users who have never used another app before;
The kinds of feedback that can be used to improve a children's product, given a lack of analytics;
The design challenges that arise when building for two audiences: children and their parents;
Price sensitivity for educational apps and whether going premium is the best option;
The limitations or constraints faced with monetization for a children's' app;
The best way to approach growth for a children's app;
How to consider user outcomes and churn;
The story of Mentava's unplanned launch.
