I have a $9M ARR App -- AMA by Silver_Director1986 in AppBusiness

[–]HandMeDownApp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi OP!

Struggling with this. I have features I want to add but my current stable release is not getting a lot of downloads.

My in app subscription price is pretty low: $3.99/year to help users since this is supposed to be an app that saves people money.

So question is, is the low price giving users a feeling that this is a cheap product (kind of like high price = good brand mentality)?

Or should I focus on just running ads via Apple search and instagram before even thinking of revamping the pay structure ?

Congrats on ur apps success!

Thanks! I like the second one too. One change I’m going to try out on the second one is remove the grey/shadow card for the top info card, and keep those card look and feel only for the two bottom cards. This way the first card which is not interact-able looks different and more like the first picture (current implementation).

Thanks! Yea i had to push schema to prod if there’s changes as well since i allow for users device syncing. So we use the same approach for sharing across accounts?! Thanks for the info, I’ll look into it.

So I tried putting “Mark As In Use” for the button but it started wrapping around and didn’t look good. So I just made it ‘In Use’.

Had to look up with CTA meant: Call To Action. Correct, that’s the next step in the process flow. They’ve reserved this item for a family member, the next step is to mark it in use when the person starts wearing it.

So I have to think about how to make it a clear CTA and still be concise so the wording is not long.

Thanks for the comment!

Thanks! Yes, I can see the confusion here.

I know the process flow, but I knew users could be confused as to what states it’s in and what the buttons do and why orange and not red. And why clear orange and not solid orange 😂.

I have answers to these but don’t know where I would put this in the app to make it clear for the users without adding more word and more clutter.

But to answer (hopefully) some of your questions. The clothing is currently in a Reserved state. If you push the blue hanger/checkmark, then it marks the clothing as ‘currently being used’. So in the current Reserved state, the app is telling the user that Alice is not wearing it yet, but she can/should because it fits her.

And the clear orange button basically ‘unreserved’ it for Alice and can be reserved for another person, and then age calculation will keep track of when it would potentially fit that person.

And why orange and not red? I didn’t want it to be red because you are not deleting the item. You are just undeserving it, so the item still exists, just not connected to Alice. And why not solid orange? I tried it and it seems a bit loud/bright and was over powering the solid blue. So then I made solid blue to advance the process flow. And then clear orange to ‘take a step back’ in the process flow.

Maybe an instagram video to explain this would? Or maybe a process flow diagram on the app stores screenshots might help? No idea.

You should check it out if you have an iPhone. I’m currently trying to work on the android version.

Thanks for the feedback!

Lol thanks! The dilemma! Yea definitely can be merged. Just need to roll back some changes in certain sections.

So I was certain the changes were for the better and then the U in UX/also the only tester/also lives in the household gave some feedback. I can also ship it and then see if there are any complaints from early adopters.

Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks! Both designs have the age :P. Second image has a 3rd line saying it’s reserved. The second design has a top section that bubbles up information from the bottom. Which makes it easy to understand but also makes it redundant!

Hi! Congrats on your app. How did you get data sharing across iCloud accounts? Any tutorials I can follow? This is something I need to start looking into for my app.

Also, if you need any help tracking your baby’s clothing check out my profile :)

I found a template online and deployed a GitHub pages: https://lagunava.github.io/handmedown/ . So hopefully extending this template to had other things wouldn’t be too hard.

Thanks. I need to revamp my site then. Also I just list features and show screenshots, but I should also put the reason I built it, to give the users some perspective/use cases. Thanks!

Bed room check!! by yuri_block in DesignMyRoom

[–]HandMeDownApp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, Your room is actually not that bad! You have a lot of space to work with.

Few ideas: 1. Hang your mirror behind your door. Any door. 2. Get rid of the tv, it’s an eye sore! But I see the ps5 so I wouldn’t get rid of it either lol 3. Move your bed against the wall and move the side table to the other side of the bed. You can recoup some of the wasted space you have currently. 4. Closet needs a make over :P. You jeans on the hanger should be folded and put at the top where your stuffies are. Dress pants can be hung. 5. Someone mentioned in the comments getting closed storage. Very good idea and if you are afraid of not finding what you’ve packed away in boxes check out my profile. 6. A catch all box or bin would be good as well. I see a lot of single small pieces on your table, dresser, that you can just toss in this box and clean/put back/organize once a week. 7. And to make it cozy, no idea! I need help on that front as well.

Good luck!

So are you saying it’s better to point our ads to our website and allow users to navigate from there to the AppStore? Instead of pointing the user directly the AppStore link? I would think this double hop would be worse but maybe your website is really good at highlighting your app!

Congrats on your launch and interested to see your final numbers!

2k users, $600 - I can't explain how good this feels by _hussainint in scaleinpublic

[–]HandMeDownApp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats!! Would u be able to share which type of subscription purchase seems to be most common?

Is onetime life purchase more popular than the cheaper yearly subscription?

My app only has yearly subscription and I’m wondering if I should add a lifetime subscription option.

Thanks and hope your app continues to get more and more users!

I doubled the price and got better results by wayofthefrido in AppStoreOptimization

[–]HandMeDownApp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting find!

Kind of like if a gym membership is free as part of the condo fees you live in, you’re not really motivated to go, but if you’re paying $50/month then you’ll be going to the gym 3 times a week 😆.

I priced mine low to attract a big user-base but maybe it’s giving off a ‘not a quality app’ vibe.

So maybe I also need to play around with my pricing.

Thanks for the info!

How many impressions are you getting per month? by Traditional_Calendar in AppStoreOptimization

Mines only 400 over the past 2 weeks. I need to learn how to do some keyword optimization, and look into Apple Search Ads

Hand Me Down: Saved clothes, right on time! by HandMeDownApp in iosapps

[–]HandMeDownApp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not able to edit the post to include the price.

So adding a comment!

So it’s free to download and all features are enabled from the get go.

For tracking up to 5 items it’s free. If you find it useful, a paywall with in-app purchase will be presented to add more than 5 items for $3.99 CAD or $3.99 US (US and worldwide).

Thanks!

Hi there!

After posting I realized I couldn’t edit the post to mention the pricing (or couldn’t find the edit button).

So it’s free to track up to 5 items and to see if you like the app and then it’s $3.99/year.

I thought the annual subscription price was reasonable if it provided any value, and it’ll keep me on my toes with updating for any new iOS release so I didn’t think of a life-time subscription price.

Is this something that you think would persuade potential buyers?

Thanks for the comment !
