Thanks for your interest in the app!

I wouldn't say it's "very obscure" - the number of downloads is in the six figure range, and we're growing rapidly. However, I'd say that adoption is slower in some markets than others. For example, the app is quite popular in Brazil, but not as well known in the US. We're continuing to expand our reach, with support for three languages (French, Portuguese, Spanish) coming online by the end of the year. While we might ramp up marketing efforts, I don't really want to deal with a usage spike that may have side effects. Organic growth is the best path at this time. If you like the app, please consider spreading the word
