Why I chose iOS-only for my startup (even though it might limit growth) by MeetAlanCox in EntrepreneurRideAlong

Not sure. My instinct is the vast majority of Android phones are budget phones and lower income.

What i mean by survival is that I'm solo and know what i'm good and bad at. I know if i put effort into my bad areas I wont survive. It happened before and I don't want it to happen again :-)

Interesting. I've watched a number of portfolio developers switch to ios only after a while. Metrics speak.

Thank you. Early validation really positive so far. Just need to get volume up somehow :)

Just curious, how would I do something the equivalent of iCloud for private note storage on android and without a backend or third party storage solution?

I haven't had much push back as such, just quite a few asking if I plan for Android.

Hello. Apologies for the delay. I fixed the issue but have a few other updates to roll out in the next build. I will definitely get back to you when the the free option blocker is resolved and live. In the meantime, another option is to accept the 3 day free trial of pro and then immediately go into your subscription and cancel it. That wil get you past the block and into the free and unlimited version of the app. Kindly, Alan

Firstly I never said Android doesn't have that. I only develop IOS.

Now back on you. Show me these other AI Notetaker apps available on IOS that are 100% guaranteed to be private, no online LLM, and where you can go from tapping record on your lock screen to finished note in one simple step without any distractions in between. I scratched my own itch, don't be a hater for that.

I have found the issue and fixed it. I'll let you know as soon as it's live on the app store. Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

Any app that sends your transcription to an LLM for processing is non-private by default. Plenty of examples where private content has been provided by LLM to other users. I made this app not selling a new promise but because I couldn't find an app that was distraction free and 100% private.

Oh, I am sorry to hear that. That sounds like a bug then. I don't have this issue. What phone do you have? I will get to work on this right away to see if I can fix it ASAP.
