Asker, through its multiple-choice messaging feature, is master of the transactional text.

So much of our text-messaging is the same repetitive question, over and over. For example, "What time are you coming home? #5 pm #6 pm #7 pm #later". There is no need for constant back-and-forth, just a simple tap of an answer. Asker makes this possible, easy and fun to do!

With Asker, you can easily send a question to a friend or colleague, with multiple-choice answers already pre-populated by you, separated simply by a hashtag. This makes it extremely fast and efficient for the recipient to reply, especially for Apple Watch users!

On Apple Watch, either iMessages has to guess the right answer for you, you have to be in an acceptable setting where dictation is possible, or the questioner needs to understand the cryptic emoji you send back. Two-way messaging on Apple Watch is solved with Asker.

Just ask your question with Asker, and separate the possible answers with a hashtag in front of each answer, like this: "Are you going to the party? #Yes #No #Only if youre going."

Asker is great for use in the office to offer quick and clear communication, and is an ideal use case for Watch users, who want to be able to reply to a text with a simple tap.

Asker is also great to use socially for just about anyone who wants a direct answer to any question. It eliminates the awkwardness of excuse-making by simply offering a no-frills multiple-choice answer to questions.

Just set up an account (its free!), find your friends via email address, and start Askering! Please make sure to enable notifications, or youll miss all the Askers being sent to you.

Asker works interchangeably on the following platforms: web browser (https://www.askerme.com), iPhone and Apple Watch.
