Once you have registered on Ask you will find yourself in the main call screen Dashboard. Through this section you can start asking questions to the users of the social network. Keep in mind that the questions that can be asked on Ask are basically of three types: question, photosondaggio o shoutout; I'll talk about them in detail in the following lines, explaining their differences.

  • Application: is an Ask tool that allows you to send a question in a classic form. You can ask a question related to a topic that interests you, or find ideas by clicking on the button Interesting. The latter is a section that will allow you to read some popular questions, through which you can get inspiration to be able to formulate your question. For example, you can ask Ask users: "How many follow football?"
  • Photosondaggio: is an Ask tool that allows you to send a question to users of the social network, in the particular form of a photographic survey. In this case you will have to insert two images relating to two distinct topics, asking the Ask users which of the two topics they prefer. Just to give an example, you can ask: "Do you prefer football or volleyball?".
  • Shoutout: this tool allows you to write and send a normal question; this will, however, be aimed at users of the social network who are close to the city from which you write. It is a way that allows you to attract the attention of people registered to the social network who are nearby and therefore allows you to make new friends.

The types of questions called Shoutout e Application explained above, they can also be expressed anonymously: to do so, just put the check mark on the item Ask anonymously. In this way your username will not appear and the question will be expressed anonymously.



To explore other sections of the social network, click on the section Questions. This screen is dedicated to receiving random questions that will help you fill out your user profile by adding interesting content to it. By answering shoutout questions and causal questions you will be able to make yourself known to other users of this social network and, gaining popularity, you will receive other questions that you can answer.

The questions you find in the section Questions they will not be visible in your profile until you decide to answer them. To start answering the questions, click on the button Reply.

If you wish, in addition to the text of your response, you can also attach an accompanying image. To do this, simply press the button with the box symbol that you find at the bottom left.

To send your reply and display it on your profile within the social network, click on the Reply button.
