Made an app with my ND friend - have some questions/help needed

Hi everyone, new to the community and excited for the journey! My friend on the spectrum (an incredibly talented coder) and a group of us have created an App that is able to analyse tone and context in chat (particularly useful for voice notes) that accurately explains the sender's intent: for example, it can explain that the sender is being sarcastic; might be feeling euphoric; upset, etc. It's basically like Whatsapp/messenger/DMs but with a tone and context explanation; he has put a lot of work into it using his experiences of being on the spectrum.

We have a prototype built and had some questions we need help on, in order to make this app helpful to the ND-community and their family/friends/partners.
Would anyone be interested in having a chat (can be text or call) so we can understand some of your communication concerns with neurotypical people in particular? If so can you let me know and I'll send you a DM :)

We also had the following questions:
1. How difficult do you find understanding neurotypical people? Do you feel that the understanding gaps go both ways (i.e. do people who are neurotypical also have trouble understanding you or is it more the other way around?)
2. If there was an app like the one described, is this something you would consider trying out and using? Who would you want to use the app with (e.g. with family? with friends?)
3. What would be some of your barriers to using the App?
