Hey CandleLit, thanks for sharing your project and welcome to the Kickstarter community :)



I think the idea is definitely there, but I do see a few things missing from your campaign page that may be halting your funds. Firstly, if you are raising a high amount of money as you are, you are going to require a video. Use software to record your screen, put together screenshots of the app, record your voice with your phone, and edit everything together.


The campaign page itself is good, there isn't too much that could be changed. What I would recommend is fixing up the rewards. They are too expensive and don't give enough back to the people who pledge money.


Preparation is very important and before launching a Kickstarter campaign you want to have people ready to back your campaign. Get friends and family involved, setup social media accounts and post regularly, run paid advertisements online, create a website with a sign up form so you can start building an email list, etc.


If I was in your position, I would recommend pulling the campaign from Kickstarter, reconsidering the funding goal, do your research about Kickstarter, start preparation, and relaunch the campaign. Maybe even look into app specific crowdfunding platforms :)



If you need any help with anything, reply to this thread or private message me. All the best!

Team Backertree!
