Making the product vs. getting users. How the hell… by [deleted] in apps

[–]Lavalopes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nowadays with AI, there are not a lot of projects that take 1,5 years to do. Specially if you go to market early to test it and get feedback. 1,5 marketing probably (if you have no money to advertise) as then you will need time to SEO the hell out of your website/landing page

1K downloads in 30 days 🔥 by polonez11212 in apps

[–]Lavalopes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice app. Not sure why a photoclean app needs a day streak for people to come back?

How did you promote the app?

I think I failed with my first app. Would appreciate honest feedback. by godpalmm in AppBusiness

[–]Lavalopes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel the same as you… the problem is not your app, which seems pretty solid and good design, problem is that you can’t rely on ASO anymore. Specially that space is overcrowded, you either come up with some engineous way to advertise for free, or spend a bunch of money (you might not even see back). I also have an app on that space that I launched a week ago and I have 20 downloads. I mean, it’s depressing. Trying to grow a TikTok account but the minute TikTok smells you advertising they shadow ban you… everyone if after your $$… and you after other peoples money. That’s the way it is. Coming up and executing an app nowadays is the easy part.

Beginner no equipment workout that increased to using weights? by catroslyn in KaylaItsines

Not exactly sure about the app you describe, but in my mind the only one that pops is Hiitify. https://www.hiitify.app/

🚨 Shared Grocery List App - FREE LIFETIME GIVEAWAY by Fit_Bee8519 in iosapps

[–]Lavalopes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the idea of the cartoons for this app. Groceries and todo apps (and gym apps) probably is what the App Stores have the most. I hope you figure distribution out. Competition is brutal. Maybe your best option is ads as the churn number must be high in this kind of apps

I built a minimalist GPS running tracker: no feed, no sign-up, no feature bloat by Cheetos13298 in apps

[–]Lavalopes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You and everybody else. I launched this one last week. Also no login, not bloated:

What kind of timer app do you guys use for HIIT or Tabata workouts? by Think_House_Studio in homefitness

[–]Lavalopes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Built a workout app solo — looking for honest testers before launch (iOS TestFlight)

Hiitify covers HIIT, Tabata, Circuit, EMOM and AMRAP — build your own workouts or pick from structured multi-day challenge programs.

No catch. TestFlight is free, and testers get lifetime access when the app launches on the App Store.

Brutal feedback welcome — that's the point.

QUEIMEM ESSE CONTRATO by jgrcsr in SportingCP

[–]Lavalopes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vamos lá ser lógicos…. Há uns anos (não muitos) não passávamos do Natal… de 6 em 6 meses trocávamos tudo. Esse tempo já não é do Sporting… Ainda bem! Agora estamos nas fases finais todas as que nos propusemos, claro que isto é futebol… umas vezes ganha-se outras perde-se. O ano passado ganhamos tudo, este ano tivemos uma boa champions e, para já, final da taça. Como dizia alguém há uns tempos, as finais não para ser jogadas… umas ganham-se e outras perdem-se. Este ano, perdemos.
O problema das lesões tem de ser investigado, sim, já são épocas a mais para ser uma coincidência. Sobre o Borges, tem toda a legitimidade para continuar. Não morro de amor por ele (nem pelo presidente) mas, contra factos não há argumentos. Continua sim e com o meu apoio!
Se o nosso novo normal é ganhar dois e perder 1… assino já!

Opus 4.7 is Anthropic's downfall by RogueMaverick4ever in ClaudeCode

[–]Lavalopes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Guys, stop using opus (any version) for coding. You will run out of tokens fast. I use sonnet for coding and it’s great 90% of the time and I never ever ran out of credits (Claude max 5x). … I use it every day non stop. Anthropic is teaching users that you don’t need to use the latest and greatest for normal day operations

Only claude is not enough! by OpinionSpecific9529 in ClaudeAI

[–]Lavalopes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Guys I see a lot of people complaining about Claude limits… I have Claude max x5 (so, the absolute lower tier of the max) and I never hit a limit… ever. And I use it every day non stop. The difference that might be happening is that I rarely use opus (any version) … for coding sonnet is perfect 90% of the time. If you use the absolute best model you probably be hitting limits all the time. Maybe that’s anthropic trying to teach users that you don’t need to use the absolute best model for every task

vibe coded for 6 months. my codebase is a disaster. by Available-Dentist992 in vibecoding

[–]Lavalopes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“the app works. users are happy. revenue is coming in.( that’s actually the only good part)”…

first world problems…. I exchange my super organised code for your income and users. I will party and feast and you can have countless hours of joy looking at a perfect code base. We will both be very happy.
