The app, launched in May 2011, now catalogues more than 1.7 million posted pictures, with more than 10 million “Yummys” (like “Like!” in the Facebook) on them.

SnapDish is getting more and more popular mainly among people who cook at home, because they can connect with a wide range of people and talk about cooking through food photos and recipes. We talked to a SnapDish staff who is in charge of the international business on this new multi-language support.

This searvice launched May 2011.
The dish photos contributed is beyond 1.7million, and the evaluation ”Yummy("Like" in facebook)” is more than 10million.

You can connect to various people by the topic of the dish through photos and recipes and which leads to increasing users almost who make home cooking.
I heard a story bfor international charge of Snap Dish in this multilingual correspondence.

SnapDishが海外展開において実施してきたポイント

2011年5月にアプリを公開するまでの開発、設計期間では、当初から海外ユーザが使用することを想定してアプリの作り込みました。英語版も同時公開したので、アプリの中身を単純に翻訳するのではなく、UIなどにも最初から英語が入ることを前提で、日本人以外にも使用しやすいよう開発しました。

Key points carried out for SnapDish’s international service

When developing and designing the app, launched in May 2011, we had overseas users in mind as well from the very beginning. We planned to launch its English and Japanese versions at the same time. So, instead of simply translating the context literally, with the intention of having English user interface as well, we designed the app that is easy to use for both Japanese and non-Japanese users.

英語でもユーザが楽しめる表現かどうかなどにも非常にこだわりました。例えば、日本語版で他のユーザの写真を気に入ったら「もぐもぐ!」(FacebookでいうLike!)をする機能があるのですが、これは英語版では「Yummy!」になってます。

The company is particularly concerned with making their terms fun and user-friendly even in English. For instance, if users like another user's photo in the Japanese version, they can click "mogu mogu!" (equivalent to a Facebook "Like!"). In the English version, this becomes "Yummy!"

I was very particular about the expressions users can enjoy in English.
For instance, in Japanese edition when you like other users photographs you can press a button "mogumogu", whichi is Like! in the Facebook, But as for this it becomes "Yummy!" in English version

We also paid close attention to whether or not English expressions in the app sound fun for English users. For example, there is a button called “Mogu Mogu!” in the Japanese version. This works like Facebook’s “Like!” and users can click it when they like other users’ photos. But in English version, this button is named “Yummy!.”

本来、「もぐもぐ!」は英語では、"nom nom"とか"chomp-chomp"などと表現するのですが、それでは可愛くない、馴染みにくそうといった理由や、”Yummy! ”という表現の方が英語の文章の中でも自然であることなどからこの表現にしています。他の言語に展開する際にも、こういった部分には非常に拘っています。

その甲斐あって、アプリの初期リリースから海外から一定のダウンロードがありました。

"Mogu mogu!" translates more literally into English as "nom nom" or "chomp-chomp," but since such expressions are not as friendly or appealing in English, SnapDish chose the more natural-sounding "Yummy!" They are taking equal care to use natural expressions as they expand into other languages.

As a result, the application has been regularly downloaded overseas since its initial release.

The word “Mogu Mogu” is essentially expressed as “nom nom” or “chomp-chomp” in English, but they don’t sound cute and we thought English users may not relate to the words. So we chose "Yummy!," since it sounds more natural in English writing. When working on other language versions, we also put particular focus on this sort of things.

Thanks to all the efforts, the app was downloaded a certain number of times in overseas market after the initial launch.

主に東南アジアや中国語圏からが多く、「食」と「写真」という組み合わせが日本だけでなく、アジアで好まれるという傾向を早くに掴むことができました。

アプリ公開後もユーザのニーズを把握し、各写真にタグ付けできるジャンルも各国の食文化に合わせるなどの工夫を行っております。

The app gained many users particularly from Southeast Asia and Chinese-speaking regions, and we learnt quickly that not only Japanese but also people in the other Asian countries like the combination of “food” and “photo.”

Even after launching apps, we figure out users’ needs and try to meet the needs. For example, genres that can be tagged on to each picture are customized to each countries’ food culture.

こうして海外ユーザを最初から意識して作ったこともあり、海外のヘビーユーザからは「日本のアプリであることを知らなかった」、米国のユーザから「英語圏で作られたアプリだと思っていた」と言った声が寄せられる事も多く、海外でも違和感なく使用できるアプリであることが確信できました。

Since the application has been developed from the very beginning with foreign users in mind, heavy users overseas frequently report not realizing that the application was Japanese, and American users often assume that it was developed in an English-speaking country. Such feedback confirms that even foreign users can use the application without any sense of incongruity.

Since we have overseas users in mind for the app from the beginning, we receive many comments like “I didn’t know this is a Japanese-made app” from heavy users abroad, or “I thought this app was made in an English-speaking country” from American users. So we feel confident that this is an app that can be used in foreign countries without a sense of discomfort.

SnapDishのビジネス開発

昨年は中国のRenren.comや韓国SK planetなど、海外の大きなパートナーとの提携を進めることで海外展開を進めました。提携については、基本的には先方からお声掛け頂き、実現に至っています。

こういったパートナーシップによって、SnapDishがアプリとしてアジア諸国のニーズに合致する魅力を感じている人が、SNSやキャリア内のプロバイダー側にいて、付加価値となりうることが確認できました。

SnapDish’s business development

Last year, we expanded our service further by partnering with big foreign companies such as China’s Renren.com and Korea’s SK planet. Basically, so far, we agreed to those partnerships after receiving offers from the other companies.

Thanks to these tie-ups, we realized that, among SNS or carrier providers, there are some people who think SnapDish app can meet the needs of Asian consumers, and that our service can be an additional value.

昨年は同時に海外のスタートアップ向けのピッチイベントには積極的にエントリーを行い、6月にシンガポールのEchelon、7月に台湾のIDEAS Show, 10月に米サンノゼのGMIC-SVに選ばれました。プレゼンテーションをする機会だけでなく、イベントでブースを持つ事もできたため、海外の既存ユーザとも話す機会があり、人的なネットワーク構築をしたり、海外メディアから取材を受けるなどPR面でも非常にプラスになりました。

Also, we actively applied for overseas startup pitch events last year, and participated in Singapore’s Echelon in June, Tiawan’s IDEAS Show in July, and GMIC-SV which was held in San Jose, USA, in October. In those events, we not only made presentations but also set up our booth in venues, so we were able to talk with existing overseas users and build a network of people. We were even interviewed by foreign media companies, so it was very beneficial for a promotional aspect as well.
