What is an MVP? Launching the first version of your app faster and cheaper
By [AUTHOR_NAME]5 min read
A practical example
A salon booking app: the MVP is a customer picking a service and slot and getting a reminder, and the salon seeing bookings. Loyalty points, deposits, reviews and multiple branches come in version two, after you see people actually booking.
How to pick MVP features
- Write the core user journey step by step
- Remove every feature that doesn’t block that journey
- Use temporary manual work behind the scenes where possible
- Pick one success metric (e.g. weekly bookings)

An MVP isn’t a shoddy, buggy app. It’s a small scope built to high quality. A bad experience teaches you nothing about your idea — only about poor execution.
Frequently asked questions
