At least some form of gamification (e.g., a visible karma score) seems the default today for any platform for questions and answers; I haven't install the app but I saw no evidence of it in the screenshots. If they chose to not have it, I wonder why that could be (the boring answer would be "probably because MVP" but there may be other, more interesting, ones).

Is gamification necessary? The fact that the questions you see are posed by friends is maybe enough incentive to answer.

I'm using the app now and I see that I have "0 thank you cards." That seems like it might be some kind of points system. We'll see once I can get someone else to install the thing.
