Let's get to it!

Your first task as a Stacked Beta user is to start playing around with the site. There are two basic functions on the site: finding and adding. We'd like you to play with both in a bunch of different ways.

Let's start with finding.

  • Try searching different locations by city, state, zip and/or any other identified.
  • Try searching using your phone or device's location
  • Try searching using different browsers or devices.

Then try adding.

Adding firewood is a bit more involved. Anyone can add firewood to the site by filling out a form with the location details. To make life easier, we created a way for folks to upload a photo of the firewood and use the image's location information as a jumpstart.

  • Try adding firewood using a manual location
  • Try adding firewood using the photo upload
  • Try adding firewood using different browsers or devices

* Note: for the sake of testing, please don't feel like you need to find firewood to try the uploader. FEEL FREE TO USE ANY PHOTOS. We manually review the submissions, so if you submit actual firewood, great, if not, no worries.

What to expect

As a Beta User, you’ll be asked to do various tasks to help us improve the overall website. These tasks might involve testing a feature on different devices, adding firewood locations using different methods, or performing searches in areas with strange or remote addresses. Most importantly, we want you to use Stacked as much as you can while you're out camping, hiking, and vacationing!

Goals + Focus

The Stacked Beta was created to help us fix and improve things we can’t predict. The Beta is focused on gaining feedback around three major things:

  • Functionality
  • User Experience
  • Map Population

Our goal is to iron out all of the kinks over the coming months.

Communication + Feedback

Less is more. We won’t be filling your inbox up with long discussion threads or ask you to use tons of apps. We’ve built a Message Board on our platform to make your life as a tester easier.

  • We’ll send you an email when there is a new post for you to read. It might be a message, update, or a task.
  • If it's a task, we’ll give you everything you might need to test the new feature.
  • You'll submit feedback using a form we've built.

If we need more info, we can follow up via email to setup a time to chat.

Ideal beta testers

Anyone can join the Beta Program! We especially encourage avid and frequent campers to signup as well! You don’t have to be a camper though, if you love testing software, we’d love to have you as well.

Participation in the Beta is key to the success of Stacked. Please only signup if you will be able to commit 30-minutes every few weeks to testing and reporting issues. Join now!

More Coming Soon...

The plan is to use Reddit as our primary online presence. More to come on this as we work through the Beta. In the future, there will be info here on how to share Stacked as well as all the necessary links.
