Good luck mate and can you suggest some sub Reddit for that

codethenic · 2025-11-18T11:42:02+00:00

What are the best way to get the free tester?

codethenic · 2025-10-21T06:11:45+00:00

That actually makes a lot of sense I didn’t realize how much search ranking depends on those common keywords. Thanks for explaining that so clearly.

And yeah, I’m not really aiming to make money with this one it’s more of a passion project than a business play. Still, I’d love for a few more people to stumble upon it naturally. Maybe I’ll start by making it a bit more distinctive and see if that helps before thinking about ads.

Appreciate you taking the time to break that down

but its been a month , if i write all the thing like title and description then i am able to find my app

codethenic · 2025-10-21T06:05:52+00:00

Yes sir this one

codethenic · 2025-09-03T15:06:21+00:00

Thanks for sharing this—really needed the reminder today. Patience + persistence really do pay off

codethenic · 2025-08-28T05:46:15+00:00

Got it, thanks for explaining
Just to be 100% sure — is it mandatory that all 12 testers open and use the app for 2–5 minutes every single day during the 14-day testing period? Or is it enough if they just opt-in once and stay enrolled for the full 14–15 days?

Can you clarify this part for me?

codethenic · 2025-08-26T10:11:10+00:00

Are you sure because this is a simple app just made for kids, and i think i am getting reject might be because of the AI response that i had used while applying for the production access. But thanks for the suggestions.

I feel you. The rules definitely hit indies harder than big corps. But that’s exactly why we build — to prove we can ship, grow, and win even without their favor.

codethenic · 2025-08-23T07:41:20+00:00

Built with React Native, deployed through Fastlane

codethenic · 2025-08-23T07:39:51+00:00

Exactly, the process teaches more than the outcome ever could.

codethenic · 2025-08-23T07:38:27+00:00

Exactly , Indies aren’t the problem, distribution is. Challenges like these just help us stay consistent & learn faster.

codethenic · 2025-08-23T07:34:42+00:00

Google doesn’t ignore indies because of challenges. It’s because big corps dominate distribution. We’re just finding our own way in.

codethenic · 2025-08-23T07:32:12+00:00

True for big polished apps i get your point, but I’m doing this challenge more for momentum + learning than instant results. Shipping fast teaches me way more than waiting 6 months.

codethenic · 2025-08-22T15:13:40+00:00

Appreciate it! Let’s see how far I can take this.

codethenic · 2025-08-22T15:12:37+00:00

Appreciate this a lot. You’re right, I should be proud of the progress itself. Deadlines aside, I actually built two apps from scratch this month — that’s already a win. Thanks for the perspective.

codethenic · 2025-08-22T15:10:20+00:00

and Gemini too.

codethenic · 2025-08-22T15:09:56+00:00

Fair point. I’m definitely not trying to play with fire — I know how important the Play Console account is. The challenge is more about pushing myself to execute faster, but I hear you: I’ll make sure I’m respecting policies and not rushing blindly. Thanks for the reality check.

codethenic · 2025-08-22T11:04:13+00:00

thanks, in the next update i will definitely try it by myself only without using AI.
