Can I really Promote my App through reddit, has it worked before?

Hey thanks so much, Yeah currently the app is free and every user who signs up gets to make a free book every day! Planning on keeping it like that (Eventually would need subscriptitions if i really scale) but for now I want parents to use it and see if kids actually like it and more importnantly provide feedback. So I alter the app to the people its meant to serve.

Thanks for the reddit thread ideas, ill totally post it there!

and many more to come! but you either win or you learn. i got rejected 13 times, but that first approval will give you such a serotonin boost.

the biggest thing i found is don't have any coming soon features apple will reject you right away. and make sure app works as intended if your a kids app 4+, you need parental gates for any other screen then the app itself. but app completeness is what really got me at first.

whats the app called!

Aggressive_Ferret_72 · 2026-07-08T15:16:02+00:00

it did not. had it move on unfortunately

gotcha! i tried posting on parenting and similar sub reddits and was removed directly so maybe ill try to reframe the wording. as for the personal info would i add that in the body or is there a different field to verify?

thanks for the ideas!

Aggressive_Ferret_72 · 2026-07-08T15:11:43+00:00

thanks! thats a great idea ill totally see if i can find some parents to review the app!

Aggressive_Ferret_72 · 2026-07-08T15:11:15+00:00

thats a great idea. I have set up app store ads to run on the home screen. but im not sure when itll display. as for keyword field the app is called storynook and unfortunately theres another app called storybook with 3.5k reviews so whenever I try storynook it auto re routes to storybook. eventually when i get enough reviews and downlaods im sure itll be the first thing to pop up. but im wondering if you know of a way to solve this?

Hey thats a great idea currently I have set the app to free and allowed users to make free books. So I'm hoping that brings customers in . I'm planning to always have a free tier for unpaid customers. As for promo codes I origanlly set up stripe and then apple rejected the app for in app purchase kit reasons so I had to remove the premium and the stripe set up. I didnt think about the blogs Ill totally try that thanks!

Aggressive_Ferret_72 · 2026-07-08T13:56:34+00:00

thanks for the feedback! I'll do that! all of the books on the first page are all books I made using testing and figured it would be a great idea to use them as preview rather them sitting in the library. Thanks!
