Why Elon's Super App Is Destined To Fail
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 31 พ.ค. 2024
- Ever since Tencent was able to build QQ into a ubiquitous super app across China, big tech companies have been dreaming about the day that they could own such a super app that encompasses all aspects of people’s lives. The latest person to jump onto this bandwagon is Elon who wants to turn X into a super app. But, the harder they try, the further they get from actually creating a super app because Americans simply don’t want a super app. Americans strongly feel that all of these big tech companies already have too much control over online lives. The last thing that they want to willingly support is yet another Google or Meta service. However, it seems that companies aren’t really willing to accept this sentiment as they keep trying their best to create said super app. This video explains the top reasons why a super app will never work in America and why X’s gamble at creating a super app won't end any differently.

I think that we should strive to prevent super apps from existing and becoming popular. It’s a very dangerous path. Imagine if a breach happens at a super app - everything, from finance to social media is leaked
Imagine X was a super app and they banned you for life without any warning or explanation like I was...
I still have no clue why I was banned. A couple of months ago I just got told I would not be allowed to post or like any tweet for breaking their rules. I emailed them asking what rule did I break? The only response I got was 'you are banned for life...do not contact us again!'
WTF?
Musk is such a fraud!
(Maybe it was my tweeting against their 'freedom of speech, not freedom of reach' policy. Musk is such a fraud!)
Yes, no need to follow China at every step
I was thinking we should try and prevent them more because of the reasons why China is able to have a super app.
Not only that. If you criticize Elon Musk or Tesla on social media. He's vindictive enough to get twitter and private investigators to threaten legal action against the employers of the posters. Also standard Tesla purchase agreements have arbitration, secrecy clauses to keep disputes under wraps and prevent class action lawsuits. One tesla driver who returned his car didn't get his refund on his lemon and got blacklisted by suing Tesla. Giving Musk even more power to be a bigger asshole doesn't make sense.
This is the entire plot of the anime movie Summer Wars.
Twitter just died yet again today.
Forget a super app, he doesn't even know how to run a functioning standard app.
Can't even run a sh*tposting app 😂 it's been entertaining to watch
Even Grok is out destroying Elon.
It wasn't a functioning app the thing was bought already in the tank lol
@@yalhexander5641Which just goes to show the level of hubris demonstrated by Musk, who evidently thought he could make it a huge success, but instead he has taken Twitter and trashed it completely.
I came from China and even I dont want a superapp. Potentially losing everything info to a single company is just scary. Much of China's centralization is driven by the government, as it's easier to control a few large companies than a mass of little ones. The superapp allows the government to control everything, from your bank accounts down to every text you type.
Never heard this point of view before
Cool
Precisely why I cant stand Google, Apple, Meta, Microsoft etc because these guys have TOO MUCH CONTROL
You already live in a super app regime, the only difference is that yoy just don't know it
but still the government still have better longterm plan rather than other countries who have lobbyist as government. Even Jack Big Mouth Ma got spanked due to unregulated loan business proposal for ANT.
exactly, they also use this app to track and forbid, block your use of transportation when they see fit, if you are gonna complain about something, or if you become 'unwelcome' somewhere.. is Big Brother dialed to the max...
It's also worth note that a super app has a lot of security vulnerabilities and privacy issues because of the complexity of its source code.
If bro can make reusable rockets and cool electric cars privacy concerns on an an app is child’s play.
@@mfundimkhize3137 There are several Tesla car accidents that say otherwise. Besides even if he could make his super apps private, there is no guarantee that he will make private.
China already made the app
@@user-pi2lq And look all the privacy and security nightmares that The Chinese are known for.
Again you’re on TH-cam = Google so be quiet thx
WeChat was amazing to have when I lived in China. But to think of 1 megalomaniac owning such an app is scary. Good thing it looks destined to not happen... Twitter as a social site looks doomed without even considering add-ons.
It made sense for me in China only because so much of the real internet is blocked.
@@ladyeowyn42
What is the real internet?
Google?
Elon could have just made one app himself instead of paying for Twitter
Yeah but your missing the point. He's an idiot.
He paid for the audience not the app so much
Yeah, the audience is def very valuable
@jeremiahbullfrog9288 no. He paid for a joke and his ego. He tried to back out and couldn't. He waived his due diligence, and when it was obvious he was stuck, he changed the narrative. You think he really cares about free speech (he bans people who say anything negative against hom or his companies)... or the environment (he personally pollutes more than 99% of people and his factories do more damage than most business, not including the poison of discarded lithium batteries) or any of "his causes". He only cares about conning money from the governments and you.
You forget about patented code. Sometimes there are simple codes that people would like to use but cant because another business patented it. So you couldnt clone Twitter even if its very simple code because youd be sued so youd spend a lot of energy rebuilding Twitter with different code to get you to the same place and that wastes a lot of money and may end up failing before it can even get a user base
Before they make X into a "Super App". Maybe they should focus on improving the base functionallity first and do that well.
Twitter was always a microblogging site with a VERY poor UI/functionality from the start (with TweetDeck making it somewhat usable). I remember Plurk being better back in 2008 with the 'microblogging wars'. How can a microblogging site be anything other than a microblogging site?
any suggestions, its easy to criticize and not give advice

@wow-sham1300 there is none, the website is a cult of toxic social rejects and barely anything else, if X wants to make money , they should focus on p*rn, those degenerates will invest there life savings on it
As a Twitter user, I think one of the biggest problems with elon's approach is that most of the user base just do not care about X. Most of us actually hate this idea but still using because we dont have nowhere else to go. The moment a really great competitor appears the app is dead
Super App = OS within an OS. Apps should do one thing and do it well.
This!! I completely agree.
There already is a 'super app'. In fact, it's so super that you can't do anything on your computer without opening it. It is the system that the entire device operates on, so they called it an "operating system". And the name stuck!
11:40 When he said "from X" I first thought it is a placeholder for 'some company', then realised the genius of Elons naming 😅
😂
Elon is just obsessed with the letter x. He's gen x and emotionally stuck in his 20s.
@@CanItAlready But it's super-rad!!!
Ex-Twitter.
The late parrot.
The concept of having a “Super App” in my possession sounds very scary, which is why I avoid it and keep most of the stuff like financing or social media separate. I wouldn’t rely on a single app for everything I use, which could be the next BnL if that’s ever expanded on.
I'm surprised you didn't mention what I consider the strongest reason of all: Security
Here in Brazil WhatsApp launched WhatsApp pay, I can't imagine ANYONE that would use it! The main reason is that there are a lot of scams that happen here in Brazil and the most often is cloning you account and asking for money with a story like "My card blocked I need X to pay a bill, I'll give it back to you by the end of the day". So people wouldn't DARE making it easier to be caught of guard. Also some suggest you should have a separate account for your saving so in the event of a kidnap you can just given them access to your day to day account. Security is the main reason people here don't trust putting everything in one place.
Brazilians sound smart.
Same. I would use specialised payments app for payments. Definitely not a social media app.
I would not count MS Edge as a failure. It is actually a pretty decent browser and feels way smoother than chrome has some useful functionalities. I mainly use it on my work devices with MS 365. Awesome combination
There's old Edge and new Edge. The old one failed so much that MS said screw it and rebuilt it completely as a fork of Google's Chromium. Of course they kept the same name to hide their shame and confuse people.
@@ComradeFranathey kept the same name to keep their branding consistent. Not everything is a conspiracy there, Sport. Marketing basics.
The growth in users means it’s working
@@zaderq1 Okay grandpa.
Just because you and some other nerds (like me) think it's "pretty decent" doesn't invalidate the argument of it being a failure. In business sense it's an absolute failure. Could be good for MS's reputation long-term, but if the general population doesn't adopt it, it's absolutely a failure for the company.
Edge is actually pretty decent, especially since google search is dead.
I think one of the (main?) reasons why a super app won't work in the US is because of privacy concerns. Americans don't like their information stored in and shared by one corporation/entity because it makes them easily vulnerable, so they choose and prefer to have them separately, even if it's an inconvenience [of remembering multiple login info and/or passwords].
Only Americans gives a fk about Twitter, nobody really use or care about it outside US
Most people don't care about privacy
The average person doesn’t care lmao. You’re using google rn lmao
People care more about not using apps that their parents use than ´privacy´. Meta,google and apple already have access to all usa population and most of the world population
@@jonathanantoine4962this
I feel like the closest thing to an "everything app" is Google's "Google Mobile Services (GMS)" which requires OEMs to preinstall a collection of Google apps on their devices in order to have Google Play (and platform support generally) for their Android devices.
I suppose you could call the iPhone an everything app as well - all of their products and services are preinstalled.
Yeah true. Those are def more of a platform/OS though as opposed to an app
@@LogicallyAnswered yeah agreed. Facebook also seems like a super app until you realize, like you said, mostly the ad portion is lucrative. But they have video and marketplace and games, in addition to the primary social feed ... Pretty wild. Also a cluttered mess lol
Apple iCloud when used either directly or via devices has payments, e-mail, messaging, libraries for pictures/notes/music/etc., Maps, TV, phone connectivity, streaming for TV/Music that can be shared etc. It's not one app but a single point.
musk claims he wants to be your bank, your mortgage provider, sell you any security or other investment, as well as all the other things. your iphone won't sell you a house.
Fortunately the awareness of de googled phones is growing. Google continues to control some of the phone network infrastructure though.
Would love to see people do their banking using a social app. You discuss with your friend that you declared bankruptcy once a few years ago, and might do it again if your stock prices don't improve, then suddenly your bank denies that loan you were counting on. Just a coincidence i guess.
Having multiple financial accounts is about redundancy also. If one firm has a network failure or a hack, you can still buy things that day.
True, also spreading you eggs
If I spread, wouldn't that make my eggs vulnerable?
Any new financial app will not rely on traditional financial technology, Elon's goal of freedom will make any financial instrument reliant on blockchain and not traditional banking.
5:02 - The problem is integration. Threads failed because not enough individuals that people want to follow were on it, and integration / usage on other sites + easy ways to find what people want is an issue
threads failed bcuz it was lacing features and didn't do ANYTHING that twitter was not already doing
Well, we just got Threads in Europe. We'll see
If you don't know who owns something in entertainment. Tencent owns it or a big chunk of it..
5:23 nobody says “Meta” in real life
It’s called Facebook
Not 1 person. Absolutely nobody. Not even Mr. Body himself
I have zero desire for a super app, too much room for one thing to go wrong and crash everything we need... Not keeping all my eggs in one basket
Additionally, even if Americans did for some reason develop an interest in a super app I suspect that one built on top of the imploded remains of Twitter would not be most people's first choice.
I owned and loved my windows phone. The main problem was android was the cool kid on the block so nobody was designing apps for Windows phones. I was sad to see it go. I am now an avid Linux user and still waiting for a solid Linux phone to move away from Android.
We already have "everything apps" - they're called operating systems and they allow you to plug in best of breed apps to accomplish specific tasks. Creating a single app with all this functionality baked in is destined to be a jack of all trades, master of none. It's also putting a hat on a hat.
I think we're already very close to a super app with Android and iOS (and possibly the Amazon ecosystem too). Apple and Google may not be into social media (apart from TH-cam), but apart from that many people use those companies for their e-mail, payments, fitness data, cloud storage, maps, media and whatnot.
Ah true
This is far from a super app tho, there are many separate apps and communities that go into all that and many ppl excluded from it. Nothing like WeChat
well, if by super app you mean just a device with other apps installed on it then sure.
i think hes talking about the operating system not the hardware itself, im not so sure tho@@lawrencelopez9839
@@lawrencelopez9839This is a big problem with discussing this question, the difference between a super app vs a portal that links to different apps. I've never used weechat but I imagine it's closer to the former.
Essentially you already can do the majority of things on these social media platforms to some degree. And as dystopian as it sounds an "everything app" is tantalisingly convenient... until it gets hacked.
Or, until you realize it is tool deliberately made to siphon your data.
The other day, an ad popped up on a website. I clicked the x in the corner to get rid of it, and a twitter thing popped up. I was trying to close the ad with the x logo 😂
I think Google is the only company who could make a 'super app' succeed.
they couldnt
I hope they don't
I think if anyone can it's for sure Google.
No one else has anywhere near the connections and users. Google is just way too important for everyday life. No other company is near that. @@ducksongfans
I think i agree
google sucks at good services so much, there are little things they actually do well
One of the reasons I distrust elon musk is because he's willing to make a super app and his only "compelling" reason is slightly more convenience when the downfalls for the consumer far far outweigh the positives. We already have china as a sufficient counterexample.
Great video, as always.
Regarding the super app. I think that Google, Apple, Facebook accustomed us to so many shady and controversial practices that no one in US or Europe would like to have them as super app.
However I think that there are two ways companies die, one is bankruptcy, the other one M&A and I immagine that at some point "FANG" companies will start to scoop out companies beyond their industry while maintaining the purchased company brand reputation in the industry.
Quite frankly I'm surprised it didn't happen yet with this year banking failures (SVB, Signature bank etc.).
I'm afraid that, if it happens in a crisis time, regulators and national institutions would even provide warrants as happened in the Swiss banking sector with the Credit Suisse - UBS merger, in normal times it would have triggered the anti-trust regulations.
By the way can you immagine if "X" gets bankrupt, Facebook can scoop the remaining IPs, scrap the "X" branding, bringing back the bird, using the Facebook moderation team and what remain of Threads on the new twitter and say "Twitter is back", I think that would be a chapter for future Management and Strategy textbooks.
Elon might have had a chance if he didn't ruin his social credit showing his ass on twitter. No one except his fanboys are going to trust him enough.
@@gabrielebianchi8976 you really want your freedom of speech by a company that doesn’t value it in first place?
@@c4rnage125 I haven't said that, I've said that they could still build their super-app by "rescuing" other companies from failure via total and partial acquisitions.
Strategically would be a reasonable thing to do instead of building a new system from scratch via a trial and error process.
As it is now, you will have a platform ecosystem when other players will have to play from a disadvantageous position.
@@gabrielebianchi8976 you may be right, sure and looking at Elon’s lack of strategy and .... erratic behaviour and involvement into politics seems annoying and I think this will hamper his business ethos, but I still am hopeful because I loved the bird app.
But ... Free Speech is quite important for all of us, and meta isn’t the one that values free speech (you know all the conspiracies).
Besides that .... I would trust anyone with my data ... not zuck, not meta.
Is Tencent *actually* pronounced "Ten-chent" and not "Ten-sent"? Because if it is I've been pronouncing it wrong the entire time.
I pronouce it "Ten-kent"
It's ten-sent I think, it's not translated from any Chinese word so it should just be how you would normally pronnounce it in english (which is ten-sent, since words like percent are pronnounced per-sent)
@@erikwang3378 Yeah, that's how you say it. I'm just

The American government will break up a super app into separate companies
I look at it this way. If the businessman is asking you to trust him and only him while using multiple suppliers, like good businessmen and business-women suggest, why should I trust them?
I wouldn't mind a super app. It won't stop me drom simultaneously using the services I'm already subscribed to, but will be nice for the (once in a while) easy transactions.
We already have a "super app" in the form of super platforms. Google and Apple. A super app is redundant in the US.
Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. Building wealth involves developing good habits, such as regularly setting aside money for sound investments.
“I don’t care about the economics” He said. Now he’s crying about the economics 24/7
The only super app that will ever exist in western countries is operating systems. If you consider OS's a super app.
super app is useful if it is of relevant stuff; kind of like how apple product integrate and make it convenient. But not if you are having a single company control random stuff like having apple own a bank, restaurants or so
Instead of more power through a super app or any more mergers, these already super companies needs to be broken up to reinvigorate competition.
This!
Threads biggest downfall to why it was unsuccessful in taking out X is that it threads didn't allow Corn but make the C a P lol

This idea of Americans “preferring” separate services is not real. Everyone prefer convenience. It’s just a matter of time until a “super app” comes along and will be a no brainer to use it.
the reasons Americans hate a Super app is not corporate companies, legally they can’t sell our data but the NSA can blackmail them to backdoor their data.
I don’t think Americans would want a app that controls every aspects of their life. That sounds preposterous. Who in their right mind wants to be followed every step of their day??

good, NSA already controls your TH-cam, Instagram, X and everything.
Good video, thanks for this. Little side note on the script of your ad at the end. I think you want to say ‘does not mean sacrificing safety.’ And not ‘unsafety’, right?
Seems like some of your videos have missing information. The relationship between Apple Card and GS had some issues, and a black swan event occurred. It was the height of the pandemic, and people were buying a lot of tech and computers. I think the Apple Card had a 0% interest rate on long installment plans, so many people bought a lot of tech, tying up GS’s money. Time is money, and GS could have used that money for loans or other products and services that would have made them money instead of losing it. If GS didn’t have an issue with 0% interest, then they would still have been able to make money off the swipe fees and merchant fees. It was GS’s own fault for trying to break into the consumer finance side on terms that were unfavorable to them.
I use Google Classroom, and find it to be an adequate learning management platform. I’ve taught long enough to remember when I kept and turned in a written record, no computer input to systems like Synergy with fully digitized student data including breakdowns to specific assignments.

Big "tech". Yeah. It mostly is about nothing else but advertising. The mere act of getting our attention to sell us stuff we don't need is among the world's biggest industries. Advertising pays not only for most of the Internet but also for all of TV and what's left of Newspapers. With most products and services, marketing them costs way more than making them in the first place.
Can anyone tell me the background music name ?
I think another factor could be that china is a 'low trust society' therefore they might just prefer to use services from a company that they are already aware about.
Sorry for being stupid but these Chinese super Apps just sounds like an OS, meaning the west already has two of them in Ios and android. I really don't see the appeal of one app that does everything rather multiple apps that do their one thing great. There is a reason I use Spotify for music, Audible for Audiobook and Apple Podcasts for podcasts.
Yep agreed
Elon will develop his super vapor app on his trip to Mars on his Tesla Cyberspaceship
I already deleted my account on Twitter, and I'm not going back until Musk gets out of there. I simply don't want to be part of that community and what it has become, let alone using it as some kind of banking service etc.
Interesting video. Two thoughts though. First, I know Apple is a tech company, but based on how customers view them, I don't think they are in the same arena as Meta or Google. As a non-Apple user, the pushback I get whenever I say anything negative about them is way out of proportion to similar comments about those other companies. So rather than agreeing that Apple was successful in a different market, I'd actually argue the success was not in the product but the name. (Any other company does the exact same thing with the same result and we would rightly be criticizing it as a very bad business model!) Second, I like that you highlighted that these companies would end up having to compete to make a super app. However, the other reason these big companies keep failing is because they suffer the big company bias. Innovation is difficult and even more so at large companies that are risk-averse. Much easier for a start-up to go for broke cause they don't have that much to lose. That is why these big companies usually end up buying the company making the new product - whether that is Google buying TH-cam or Facebook buying Oculus or the many, many other examples. Honestly, that is the way to a super app, but I guarantee neither the public nor government officials would be happy about it. If it is the big tech company themselves trying to create new products, what is in it for me the customer? That's the part that is always missing. Why switch from a Meta version to a Google version? No clue other than "use our version to tie with your other accounts." Yeah, but I don't need that; just look at the pain I'm suffering from having Meta force me to "merge" my Oculus account to my Meta account - so if my Facebook is hacked and they block my account, I lose access to all my video games (as happened to a video game reporter). That also ties into your point about separation and it is definitely a good thing! (To use another example, believe there was a story recently about a mother who let her children use her phone and they posted something that Google thought was CP to TH-cam, even though legally it didn't fit the definition. Well, not only did she lose her TH-cam, but her entire Gmail access as well with all her email. Why risk it? Even if you only use Google products, create separate accounts for safety just in case!)
FB has the chance to be We chat based on user base and product as long as they can merge all in one app and make it extensible
Elon last successful takeover was TESLA after that all other buyout is failures 😢😮😅😂
Savage hahaha
I don't understand people wanting to put their whole lives into one thing whether its an app or something else. People already run their lives through their phones & don't seem to consider what could happen if something goes wrong.
I wont be clamoring to get signed up.
WeChat had the opportunity to capture a "virgin" market early on. A market with specific conditions: mono-cultural, large population volume, an authoritarian political regime blessing company's status as a natural monopoly with nothing to contest it. You could even say they ate the cake and kind of had it.
In the West, anyone trying to do this "jack of all trades" will face strong friction from the established players in already developed market niches (and the habits of culturally diverse user base) and that's before government competition and anti-trust regulations (padded by intensive lobbying) on top of the public sentiment.
Ever since X has allowed people to earn money, there's so much copy pasted content spam and people not willing to speak truth as it would turn into losing their followers.
I think the guy from TechAltar made a video with similar arguments. Good video, tho.

5:00 It's difficult to classify the Google Pixel as a failure; it's one of the best Android phones to buy and generally does well each year.
Zune didn't fail! There are still Zune related files in every up-to-date Windows installation.
While I also don't want twitter (I know the new name, but I'm not calling it that) to have all my Data, There's one small detail that differentiates Elon supper App, it's integrated into a single App. If I don't have an app for groceries I'll definitely try out such functionality on twitter, heck I'll still try it out if I already have an App for it. So the success of such functionality is tied to the experience and convenience of doing it while still on twitter.
We already live in a world where 4 organisations have access to all our data
So, like a website? Don’t have the app then use the website
Great video as always. It would be great if you crop out a bit and include your hands and desk in the frame when you talk. It's very eerie. In the beginning I used to think it was some microphone issue or audio lag, but after being a long time subscriber and watching almost all your videos, I think it's just the frame which is zoomed in and feels very odd while you are explaining stuff. Good luck
Considering the app was down worldwide a couple hours ago…..yea
First he treats the workers like 💩 . Then he pissed off subscribers by changing the name . Then he did it again by making charges for it .
Nobody was able to do it before so it couldn't be done. This is what exactly people said before Tesla, and SpaceX.
Let's see
Musk has been failing on Tesla and SpaceX deliverables though. I'd feel bad for people he's scammed and duped but they're mostly rich people so I guess he's doing the world a service.
I don't want one mega asshole tech guy to have access to literally all of my information, my money, my friends, my hobbies, etc, and I don't want all of this stuff tied up in one app anyway because even mega companies like instagram and amazon, with all their redundancy, sometimes their apps go down. if my entire life is tied up in one single app and it goes down, that would be terrifying.
2:58 i remember Google plus being one of the default apps in phones and tablets(at least in turkey) so it is probably an artificially inflated number
I feel like there's not much that could stop X from introducing some sort of banking feature or Amazon integration.
I think making an app which can do everything is a very stupid idea we are just making an operating system for operating system 😕 without any virtual kernel its just stupid
… just noticed, watching your video, that the Google logo is a 2:1 Lissajous pattern. I don’t remember much else about the video :-(

I’m too lazy to create a new account. So if TH-cam for example came up with a TikTok version which they did without having me create a new account or download a new app, I’d just go use it. Likewise if FB have a payment app which doesn’t request me a lot of hassle to set up, I’d just use it. I have too many accounts with too many different passwords and I actively resist anything that requires me to set up something. Inconvenience is my only concern.
just... login using google or the other choices.
I think we just need a bridge. Something that can display what you want from any apps on any device.
WeChat’s hyper integration is about seamlessness and ease of use without feeling like who owns it is going to disrespect you as a consumer. Google abandoned their journey to an all in one app because of antitrust reasons. What American tech does poorly in the all in one app space is “forcing” users into one ecosystem vs. offering a set of services that users opt in to use because the experience is easy to manage, decouple, or link with other services. If Musk spent more time on making a super app instead of insulting the population that would use it, things could move swiftly. Instead, he has created endless reasons why people don’t want to share the same social media space with him because he’s a nuisance.
Amen brother I feel you 💯 🙏 🙌
A browser is basicly a super app 😅
PWA should rule but Apple & Google don't want it to work.properly... So we are stucked with intrusive data harvester store apps😮
I don't want everything apps... I already have an everything phone. Why would I need an everything app within my everything phone?
The problem here is that these people want to make new apps instead of adding features to the apps that the have google has everything it needs to have a superapp in 20 separate apps just put it all together
Perhaps something like AOL except instead of connecting with a phone modem you do it with a brain chip. Sure it makes that annoying "boing boing wrrrgggwwwrrr" sound in your head when it connects but you get ads for all of Elon's great ideas delivered right to your frontal lobe and purchases made in eMusk coins get 3% back (in eMusk coins of course).
😂 oops I applied for a job at Tencent not knowing it was that big and the creators of WeChat, it looked like a usual IT / consulting giant on their website tbh
They rejected my application so all good I guess 🤣
Basically it's a Amazon app with Amazon pay but for China
chatting and sending images and video call on Amazon?
Dose he bought Twitter for this reason or for the users on platform?
Great video as always
Thank you as always Balpreet!
