One of the most talked about topics in product development at the moment is onboarding (a user's first experience with your product). A great onboarding experience means your users know exactly how to use your product on the initial launch, and usually leads to positive engagement and retention. A bad onboarding experience can leave users feeling confused, frustrated, and deleting your app immediately.

Lead Product Designer Tom Wahlin (https://twitter.com/twahlin) from NYC's very own Cover (http://www.paywithcover.com/) will be speaking to us about how to build a perfect Onboarding experience. He'll be sharing the knowledge he gained putting together some of the best onboarding in the app game today.

Cover (http://www.paywithcover.com/) lets diners pay at restaurants without waiting for the check and split the bill effortlessly. It's a beautifully designed app that's making a lot of noise in the NYC startup community right now. We especially love them because they have managed to create equally compelling experiences on both iOS and Android. If you haven't already, check them out, and maybe take the app for a spin next time you're dining at one of these NYC restaurants (http://www.paywithcover.com/cover-restaurants/new-york-city/).
