Peep into Partiko Platform - A "P" Story & A Short Review.
"Blessing in Disguise" that is the best way I can sum up of getting myself into Partiko App. I still remember, first time I heard of Partiko, when , Steemit is reeling under many phishing instances and clicking any unknown link is kind of risking your Steem account. During those times, I started getting many discord invitation to join Partiko app or Partiko discord. But every time I ignore them. Untill I came across @stellabelle #bananaprogram on Partiko which allowed me show faith and logged into app. Since then Partiko becomes a daily part of accessing Steem.
INTRODUCTION
Partiko is a mobile Dapp developed over Steem BlockChain. Allowing user to get a silken smooth interface with the Steemit platform. It was the brainchild work of @crypto.talk who left AirBnb high paid job to become a full time developer on Steem BlockChain. And also well coordinated and supported by @loada another software engineer with 9 + years exp behind him. This is only app which I have seen grow like fire in the jungle and many user happily using this app for their day to day Steem activity. The mobile app is well available in Android as well as iOS
Why the name Partiko ??
A beautiful app deserved a attractive name. The name "Partiko" itself makes people think, why Partiko, And what does it mean. Well, let me spill the beans, Partiko is transformed from "Particle" which means paid for article. However, there is another angle too as the team has love for "P" which stands for Potential, Possibility, Prosperity which truly signifies the Steem culture.
Progress Roadmap
Early days of Q2-2018 and from Steem Creator Conference to Steemfest3 . Partiko team have made all possible effort to show their presence on Steem Blockchain. The sleek and handy interface easily made people to fall in love with the app. The team also introduced "Easter Egg Giveaway" whenever they comes up with any update. Allowing the regular user to identify the changes and earn some handy rewards.
Slowly and steadily, the team keep bringing new thing to the user and making users to keep developing liking for it.
Key Features of Partiko.
The Steem Dapp is the second mobile app on Steem BlockChain. The app has many benefits other than the smooth access. Some of the key features are :
No Reward cut on your post payout. The app is free and there no reward cut from author post.
Quick notification features. Allowing users to know about each and every Steem activity like, mention, transfers, upvote, comments resteem.
Flexible upvoting option through voting slider. So you can easily manage your RC, and curate intelligently.

Partiko- Cons.
There is hardly any cons of this app considering it is very user friendly and anyone can get started without any training. Still few cons I personally notice over the period of uses and would share with @partiko team.
Developing the trading, or wallet transfer option or allowing accessing internal market to exchange sbd/ Steem.
The referral scheme to earn more points is causing spam comments on many post. So it might prove a little hindrance on its growth.
Overall the App is developed in such manner that it allows engagement very smoother. This further help user to establish themselves on Steem platform. My rating goes 5 out of 5 for awesomeness and freedom it brought along.
This was my short review of @partiko mobile application prepaired for Review of Featured Dapps by @oracle-d & @dapplovers untill some last minute changes on the Featured Dapps list on State of the Dapps website I find this worthful to share with all the users to spread awareness about Partiko.

Nice review of @partiko, @steemflow. I would add another (MAJOR in my opinion) con, which is that Partiko has changed their default URL structure such that when you share a link from Partiko it appends a referral link to the URL so when someone opens the link they have to deal with a popup invite to join Partiko, and it actually adds your Steem username to the invite saying you invited them to join (so if you, @steemflow, shared a link from Partiko, anyone who opens the link would see a popup saying @steemflow invites them to join Partiko). This is super annoying in my opinion, there is really hardly anything I hate more on the internet than popup invites and I am not sure many people know that their usernames are being added to the referral pop up invites on every link they share from Partiko :(
That is indeed very annoying and I am not aware of such marketing strategies. It is kind of spamming without your knowledge. @partiko need to look these concern as too much of something is bad. Thanks for letting me know for sure, I would restriction myself from using Partiko link
