Chapter 40 Dealing with User Feedback

Once your product is out there, the hard part starts. Real people will use your product in ways you’ve never imagined.

In other parts of the book, I’ve talked about when to listen to your users and when to take their feedback with a grain of salt.

This chapter covers some additional aspects of user feedback.
