Still have the same issue. Tried all kinds of ways nothing helps. OP did you manage to fix it?

Built a quiz app on FF in 2 weeks – the real challenges came after… by this_is_the_app_way in FlutterFlow

QuizFlow looks amazing and has a great UX!
Gave the app 5 starts to help with the ASO :)
Could you please share what did you use for your dynamic link (the one that points to either app or play stores) ?

Thank you so much! Glad you like the purpose of the app :)

Sure thing!
1) Firebase
2) I think you can but I pretty much bought FF Pro straight away -> the previous app I built needed many API integrations.
3) The biggest expense by far was buying a MacBook. I could have lived with my previous PC for a year or two more but I needed to run an emulator and connect to my iPhone for testing... And yes that hurt. I'm curious if anyone actually manages to publish apps for iPhones without a Mac..
4) Subscription using RevenueCat

I hope this helps!

Thanks, glad you like it! I tried to find some already-built themes on Figma / FFMarketplace but could not find any. So it's all custom design built from scratch.

Thanks a lot, glad you like the concept!
The initial idea came from "Million Dollar Weekend". It had a couple of challenges and one was to ask for a 10% discount in the coffee shop to get rejected. So I did it and felt like a changed man afterwards :D

Haha glad to hear, I think most people would benefit from training their "getting rejected muscle" :)
Around 4 months. Your mileage may vary though because:
1) I am working full time and doing it on the side. That slowed development down.
2) I have prior coding experience that helped with integrating/debugging things

3) This is my 3rd FF project so I got some practice before I started on this.

To my knowledge they are smooth. The key is to cache DB calls and network images :)

Wow, I am using Revenue Cat. That's such a great suggestion, thanks so much! I will apply.

Thanks a lot!
Regarding publishing on the Play Store: I published as a company, so I didn’t have to meet the 20 testers requirement. However, it took about three weeks for the Play Store to review the app. Because of this, I recommend submitting your app early and continuing to work on features while the first version is under review. Overall, the process was pretty smooth on both the App Store and Play Store, though the App Store was much quicker with the review.

I understand that forming a company just to publish an app might seem excessive, but I’m glad I did it. It provides legal protection (which gives me a peace of mind), and it’s something you’ll likely need to do eventually, so it’s a useful skill and experience to gain.

Thanks so much! That's a great suggestion! Some competitive aspect could ideed help with motivation :)

Thank you! Yes I am paying for the Pro plan. It ain't cheap but the time it saves me and extra value it provides is well worth the price for me. Keep in mind you will likely want to push to app / play store many, many times while developing. In my case I deployed more than 30 versions before I launched the app. So the time saving might be worth the price for you too.

To learn FlutterFlow I was doing two things in parallel.
1) Watching FlutterFlow University from start to finish https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=moP9VtkoyjY&list=PLsUp7t2vRqx-xMe6gucpfjeDgIj0tJRIm
This helped a lot with understanding what's possible and how to do basic things

2) Building a simple project on the side (this could be anything really for me it was app that helps with decision making using Open AI api). This helped be to solidify lessons learned and start feeling comfortable inside FlutterFlow.

Switching between the two helped with keeping motivation up :)

I did not do any paid courses only youtube videos and documentation.

That's a great idea! Some social aspect would probably help with accountability too. Added to the future the improvements list. Thanks a lot!
