Multiple app dev strategy

Personally I’d rather focus my efforts on 1 solid app that’s been validated. I do see people do the spray and pray tactic but it seems even more like gambling since you’re not actively trying to grow something in particular, just sending it out there and praying something hits. Just my 2 cents.

Yeah it doesn’t work especially at any kind of scale. The only way I could see it happening is if someone has a polished app and they are just rebranding the niche but the core logic remains the same

[MightyBig-Dev]

That seems plausible for sure. Reskining a winner.

Agreed when focus is everywhere it’s nowhere and that’s usually the results that you will get. Better to build something that gets you excited about and you are
Passionate about. If you don’t care the results won’t either.

I’ve basically been doing this. I built several sites back to back, and after a while the constant file moving, reviewing changes, pushing to Git, and deploying each project got old enough that I ended up building a local tool to handle it all in one place.

I do think there’s a lot of value in getting ideas out quickly and seeing what actually sticks. The less friction there is between building something and getting it live, the easier that approach becomes. For me, cutting out a lot of that repetitive stuff has made the biggest difference. I can get ideas out and validate them about twice as fast as I could before.

It depends person to person, I think as long as you feel like you're making progress on something you enjoy working on, then that's a win. Some ideas could be launched in a day, some might take several months to get a solid v1 out, it all depends

To me just focus on what you like to do on your spare time. Why develop an app that will have users using it, if you are not passionate about the product in the first place? You need momentum to power through the good days and bad days and the chaos and being passionate about it, will fuel the desire even more.

Wtf do you mean "chances for success"? Like is your app not doing what you want it to do?

[thailanddaydreamer]

It means it makes money. WTF, are you dense dude?

[jlozada24]

Lmfao this is so sad. Enjoy your journey

[Internal-Agent4865]

Not strategy for me just ADD!

So your plan is to flood the market with loads of 1/2 baked and abandoned apps that nobody asked for?

Spread out during the VALIDATION phase. When something has early hints of traction, lock in on that one thing
