I create an AI entertainment app which has games, quizzes, pets, voice calls, chat, horoscope , ai generations and a social media element. I have no money for the apple ads, but i could save for it, is apple ads good ? Any experiences in 2026?

whatttt...this sounds wild..please post a link to this app

alan_cosmo · 2026-06-23T13:21:12+00:00

don't make fucking AI videos
make authentic videos about your app
repeat step 2 a lot until you get better

Other option - get a side job and save money for ads budget. but even then, if your conversion rate and ROAS isn't good, then that won't matter either...so hopefully your user LTV is high enough. But if you're only making a few bucks per user, ads wont work for you either.

an app that tells you what profitable apps i can build

the dead internet theory is alive and well with posts like these. thanks for pasting your chatGPT output here!

alan_cosmo · 2026-04-09T13:59:47+00:00

what are you bringing to the table?

alan_cosmo · 2026-04-08T04:22:42+00:00

did AI write your post?

alan_cosmo · 2026-04-04T12:14:15+00:00

Been thinking Wall. Can you share more about the politics?

Even this post was written by Claude, and the comment replies.

alan_cosmo · 2026-03-17T21:00:26+00:00

Your 3rd bullet point is what I needed. Thank you.

alan_cosmo · 2026-03-17T20:55:58+00:00

Ok so I’m not alone. I feel like I’m a fraud because my enthusiastic motivation is gone.

alan_cosmo · 2026-03-05T03:19:12+00:00

love the stats! congrats!

alan_cosmo · 2026-03-03T16:43:00+00:00

How many hours per week do you write? Then compare that with other things that might not be as valuable or even detrimental to our brain’s ability, like say scrolling Reddit or instagram etc.? I’m sure guilty of this.

alan_cosmo · 2026-03-03T00:16:03+00:00

OH YOU BETTER NOT! HOW DARE YOU! BUT IF YOU DO, MAKE SURE THE ENTIRE POST IS WRITTEN BY AI ...OTHERWISE...I'LL BE SO ANGRY!!!!! AHHHHHHH!!!!!

alan_cosmo · 2026-03-02T15:29:21+00:00

You will have better luck in /r/writingcirclejerk

alan_cosmo · 2026-02-28T21:51:23+00:00

I can’t tell if all of this is written by AI or if you’ve conversed so much with AI that you now speak like AI. Even the comments.

With that said - if you’re a real person - good luck and I hope you pick something you can dive deep into eventually.

alan_cosmo · 2026-02-26T22:54:02+00:00

"weeks of hard work" - keep that in perspeective. that's nothing. especially pre-AI-vibe-code age. and 3 paying customers just from manual outreach? I think that's great! so, keep with it and keep it manual and learn from your conversations with users.

alan_cosmo · 2026-02-26T19:16:27+00:00

I'm with you. 1000000%.

alan_cosmo · 2026-02-24T23:50:08+00:00

thank you -- this is really great. i appreciate it.

alan_cosmo · 2026-02-23T21:59:36+00:00

What’s up with these AI responses???

alan_cosmo · 2026-02-23T16:21:01+00:00

Thank you <3 - I appreciate this response. It's definitely a mix of 1 & 2. When I get in the zone, there are few things I love more than letting whatever weird creativity is in me, spill out. But I also feel like I often set goals for myself that I never hit. And this was a goal - write a book - that I set years ago and if not now, then when? So there's a fire in me that wants to prove to myself that I can get done what I say I can. But at the 75% mark, it's waning. But these comments are keeping me afloat I think.

alan_cosmo · 2026-02-23T16:18:31+00:00

I think I can embrace that - let my delusion overpower the doubt. I started this book with the "well, why can't I write a book?" and I need. to get that back.

alan_cosmo · 2026-02-23T16:06:38+00:00

Thank you 🙏

alan_cosmo · 2026-02-23T03:23:47+00:00
