What Q&A
Hi Steem community, this is a new Q&A app rewarding those that are asking and answering questions which is now available for iOS and Android. We took the opportunity to create the first decentralized Q&A app and it's on the Steem blockchain. This lets us add a stable reward mechanism which gives the app more value than it just being decentralized.

Wow this is a very cool app project! We all sometimes have questions and land on a random topic blog site where you've never heard off just to make an account to get hopefuly an answer.
This way many people will do their best to givs and if not known find your answer for a steem reward! I like the idea and im going to give it a try :)
Cheers
Unfortunately Steemconnect only uses Active not Posting key.
It is always great to be hyper vigilant when an application is asking for your Active key as opposed to Posting key. You're absolutely right that the rule of thumb is do not use your active key or provide it to anyone else unless absolutely necessary. HOWEVER, in the case of SteemConnect, it is not actually using any of your keys. Your keys are encrypted locally and never shared with SteemConnect. SteemConnect is an open source (which means everyone can check the code to ensure it's secure) project done as a collaboration between Steemit and Busy and intended to be THE method for signing into Steem applications across the internet. SteemConnect is the ONLY service we recommend. Good job staying vigilant!

Thx for the answer. Is There a reason Not enabling Posting key?
Do yiu recommend storing active key AT Firefox cause this what my Phone showed me.
@felix.herrmann just understand this:
Each application created through SteemConnect is a separate Steem account managed by both owner and steem connect.
The high privileges are necessary at the approval moment because of this:
SteemConnect will update your account, enabling the application itself to be 3rd party poster in your behalf.
The applications are usually suffixed with a .app name because only SteemConnect control the application key.
When then, the app posts in your name, it's NOT Your posting key being used to sign, but the application posting key, which only SteemConnect knows.
This makes the application posting on your name, only possible though SteemConnect and the permission you gave the application can be revoked at any time.
thx for explanation
This is the communication we all love to see. Thanks @andrarchy for making this known.
hey, always good to see another app on the blockchain. i'm downloading the IOS app, hoping it has steem connect login if it does we good! if not will wait for the next version that does. but i love the idea of it.
update, i see the steem connect login! woot! :)
Yeah it has SteemConnect login :)
yeah i found it cheers! :)
This is a fantastic idea and since I have had no luck with starting a Steem StackExchange site I would be happy to help out with this initiative. I think there would be lots of interest from @newbieresteemday, @asapers, @helpie and @steemeducation too!
I've been trying this app out since it came out on Android.
Credit where credit is due, it's a nice UX and lots of potential. Just need a bit more traffic but that will no doubt come with time.

muy bien ,lastima que yo no tengo Android ,me lo robaron ,y aqui en Venezuela es muy dificil obtener un android
So is this like if steemit and quora had a baby? sounds like a cool idea to me! I enjoy quora but now to get paid will be even better
Nice but the Android permission required are creepy
This is really nice trust me, the innovation on blockchain is gets interesting by the day.
