It’s been just over one week since our launch and Slinger has already met a significant milestone worth celebrating: one million seconds of video watched! That’s right, our fantastic community of Slingers has already viewed more than one million seconds — or more than 278 hours — in vertical video on the app. Amazing!

The amount of activity we’re experiencing is largely thanks to the diversity of content being uploaded and the high entertainment value of the videos surfacing on our Trending page. New videos are rising to the top every hour, and the community is taking notice, liking their favourite videos, and following each other like crazy.

We can’t wait to see what happens by the end of our second week!

Motivated by Your Passion & Support

Passion and motivation are key to reaching your goals in life. If you lack passion, you won’t find a dream worth working towards; and if you lack motivation, you won’t maintain the work ethic or willpower needed to achieve your goals.

Team Slinger put in almost a year of intensive work to build a fantastic product that would inspire content creators all over the world. Since our launch, we’ve continued to work around the clock, motivated by your positive feedback and the excitement of seeing everyone enjoying Slinger as much as we do!

Looking Forward to What 2016 Has in Store

Since the new year began, we’ve entered a new phase of our project — 2015 was all about designing and building an app that people would love to use, but our focus in 2016 is perfecting Slinger while building it around an engaged community of talented people.

We have a lot of exciting plans in place for the next few weeks, including an upcoming update designed to make your experience on Slinger even better and much more social. Stay tuned!
