About AskHowMany

This app allows you to create a question that anyone who has the app can answer and the data is available on the website. There are three categories of questions. The first category is questions on moveable objects that can be counted for example "how many vintage cars are there". Answers to this type of question have to be supported by photographic evidence for verification. The second category is questions on the number of fixed or immoveable objects for example "how many boabab trees are there". Photographic evidence is required for this category as well. For the first and second category of questions users answer based on the number of the said item in their location. The third type is questions based on peoples opinions or attributes. For example "Do you prefer apples or oranges" or "Are you left handed or right handed". This type of question does not require photographic evidence and the user has to select an answer from two or more choices. The data from all categories of questions is displayed on the website on a global map so its displayed based on location. Only the data is displayed but the identity of the users who entered the data is protected. The app and website will display the top twenty trending questions. The website contains data from all questions answered and this can be searched either by typing the question or typing the question number as each question is allocated a number. Inputting data can only be done from the mobile app and the website is only for viewing data. There are various filters on the website that allow you to select data by location or by date to only show most recent data. The app collects real time data and displays it based on location. An important feature of the app and website is the top trending questions which are ranked based on the number of people who answer the questions.
