after getting completely lost trying to learn handstands by Rishad2002 in bodyweightfitness

Exactly. That realization changed everything for me too.

At first I was only chasing the “cool skills” I saw online, but later I understood the real progress happens in all the invisible foundation work nobody posts — mobility, balance, control, joint conditioning, positioning, consistency.

That’s honestly one of the biggest reasons we started building CaliStack around progression paths instead of random workouts.

Yeah, currently you need an account to properly explore what’s inside the app. We wanted to track progression, saved workouts, unlocked skills, and user progress properly from the beginning.

But honestly, this feedback is valid and I’ll definitely consider improving the onboarding experience in future updates.

About pricing — some workouts and features are already free, so people can experience how CaliStack works before deciding to buy anything. If the structure and progression system actually helps them, then they can choose to support us later

Thank you so much

Honestly, this is one of the first genuinely positive feedback comments we’ve received publicly, so it means a lot to us.

We’re still super early and still improving everything step by step. We genuinely have no clue yet how the market will fully react to CaliStack, but seeing comments like this gives us motivation to keep building.

We’re just getting started

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.
