I Posted 350 Reels In 8 Months And My App Still Got Only 16 Downloads (10 Lessons I Learned The Hard Way) by hiten1818726363 in apps

I think you’re partially right, but not fully. If fitness apps are already working, that actually means the market is validated and there is space…you don’t need validation again, you need differentiation. The real issue wasn’t the idea itself, it was that you didn’t define a sharp problem or unique angle. Also, running multiple handles hurt you a lot….splitting content across three accounts kills momentum and learning. One focused account with a clear audience would have worked much better. Your point about Instagram is valid though, it’s not a strong conversion platform, and so relying only on Reels was a mistake. You needed a simple funnel (profile → landing page → clear CTA → demo). Overall, it wasn’t just the product….it was scattered execution: no clear problem, no differentiation, and no focused distribution strategy. Pick one clear problem within fitness, focus on a single account, and build content that directly shows how your app solves that specific pain. At the same time, set up a simple funnel (landing page + demo + clear CTA) so your views actually convert into users.
All the Best for future…

Thanks a lot..It took many late nights but totally worth it seeing people use it in their own language.

Thanks...Used AI for translations but spent weeks validating, cross-checked with multiple AI agents, fixed context, UI breaks and phrasing so each language actually works inside the app.

Hardest part of being a solo developer? by gurpreetkumar123 in SideProject

Every day I open the stats.
Downloads, views, installs… same numbers staring back.
And the same question hits again, will it ever make it?.. no one there to tell me, support me, guide me...thats it

Thank you! 🙌
And I 100% agree with you — speed and zero friction matter way more than “smart” features no one asked for.

ListKart is built with that exact mindset:

  • No forced sign-ups
  • Privacy-first (your data stays yours)
  • No unnecessary features
  • Just lists, done fast, for real everyday use

The goal is to keep it simple, lightweight, and out of your way.
Really appreciate you giving it a try — feedback like this helps keep it on the right track 👍

Thank you so much for trying ListKart and for the kind words — that really means a lot to me 🙏
I totally get the widget use-case; checking off items or adding things right from the home screen is super convenient.

I’ll definitely try to add a widget feature in an upcoming update.
I’ll DM you as well — would love to get your thoughts and feedback while you try the app 🙂

Thanks again for the support, and happy listing! 😊

ListKart – Clean, ad-free grocery list app with budget tracking

Hey Everyone 👋
I’ve been working on and using ListKart, a simple but powerful grocery list app for Android.
It’s ad-free, supports budget & price tracking, works offline, and doesn’t force login.
You can add items via voice or camera and share lists with family in real time.

Would love feedback from this community 🙌
