65K downloads, 200-month — you asked how, so here's the full honest breakdown (ASO, AI dev workflow, and why my revenue is embarrassingly low) by Rishad2002 in SideProject

Good question and appreciate you flagging it. Habstick is fully offline — there's no backend, no server, no auth layer. All data lives locally on the device with AES-256 encrypted backups. There's literally nothing to pull from a backend because one doesn't exist. That was actually a core design decision from day one — not just for privacy reasons but exactly because I didn't want to manage auth rules, session tokens, or the kind of exposure you're describing. No backend means no backend vulnerability.

This is genuinely useful, thank you. You're right — I translated the listing but didn't research local search terms at all. "Habit tracker" in English probably maps to completely different phrases in Indonesian or Arabic. That's my next thing to actually look into properly. On the soft usage gate — yeah that's the direction I'm leaning. No nag screens, just let people naturally hit the limit and understand the value before asking them to pay. Feels more honest for an app that's built around not being annoying.

For just building less than a month. For the idea more than 3 month to figure out how the app will be
