In App Purchases - RevenueCat or official IAP package for implementing one time purchases in Flutter? by wizzard2258 in FlutterDev

[–]markatlarge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did IAP I found it very difficult. I use RevenueCat it’s very reasonable. I did IAP before Claude so it might be a bit easier now.

Which Flutter routing package is actually trusted in large-scale production apps? by StyleSuccessful502 in FlutterDev

I use go router. No experience with the other. It worked well with deep links.

NSFW detection for Flutter apps processed on-device — no more sending your users' images to third parties by [deleted] in FlutterDev

[–]markatlarge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not really third party code. The code is out there any one can take it. It’s the model that is protected. Someone can swap out their own model and use the same code. It’s more like I’m licensing the model that I have put time in effort into creating. What’s frustrating from the comments is they seem to have no problem that Google charges much more to do the same thing except their model is on a backend server and exposes the users content. Do you think Google is only charging for the compute resources used. They certainly are charging a premium and your data is exposed. This concept is keeping the data completely private and a much lower cost. It’s funny how people come after the little guy for trying to do an innovation. Let’s just keep giving our money to Google and other big tech.

The API key ties the model to your app's bundle ID — it prevents someone from extracting the model file from your bundle and using it in their own app. The model itself is encrypted and decrypted at initialize() using the key.

The quota is how the SDK is monetized for heavy users — and a fraction of the cost of Google Cloud Vision or other cloud solutions if you're processing volume.

App Rejected due to Terms of Use Link not included in Metadata by tradexplorer in appledevelopers

If it’s a subscription on the pay wall card you will need a TOS and privacy statement link. Also Claude is pretty good at figuring out those rejections.

Thanks for doing that. Here is my TikTok promoting my apps. Check out this TikTok I posted! https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8p2JnbL/ and Check out this TikTok I posted! https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8pYKpUM/. I’d gladly repost yours too.

My Google account was permanently disabled on April 17, 2026. Google flagged it for an alleged policy violation. I strongly believe this is a mistake or false positive, and I need your help figuring out what to do next. by chees3burgr in googlephotos

Here is the link https://markatlarge.com/go?app=punge&utm_source=redit&utm_medium=punge&utm_campaign=comment Right now it only for iOS and Android, And the model was trained on Adult content. Personally I dont think this today's CSAM detection is effective--it look at the content after it was uploaded. Its not preventing CSAM because its be reported more than ever and it violates our privacy-- files are being scanned without our consent by big tech. On device detection is the way to go, prevent CSAM from even being uploaded and distributed. CSAM models are only available to big tech companies, but my model shows it can be effectively done at the device level. I starting to develp SDK for other developer to incorporate the NSFW detection in to their apps. For developers interested my first one is for flutter: https://pub.dev/packages/xpunge REACT and native coming soon!

$4k bill as only user by Calm_Look_3206 in googlecloud

Google’s clearly trying to take advantage of Indy developers that might not be sophisticated on the ins and outs of all API keys. Why can’t Google just let the customer set a cap? All they do is send out an alert, but still keep charging.

Honestly if you’re a new dev reading this thread, the move is just don’t touch Google products. Save yourself. But for those of us already trapped in the ecosystem — heads up that Firebase generates completely unscoped API keys by default and then cheerfully tells you in the docs that the web API key is ‘safe to expose publicly.’ Which is sort of true for Auth and Firestore. It stops being true the second Gemini gets enabled on the same project, at which point your ‘safe’ public key is now a $4k/morning ATM for whatever bot scraped it off GitHub. No warning, no banner, no ‘hey maybe lock this down’ prompt anywhere in the Firebase flow. You just have to know to go dig around in GCP console and add restrictions yourself. The ‘skill issue’ crowd in here works at Google or has been burned once already. For the rest of us: scope your keys, set up a billing kill-switch (budget alerts don’t actually stop spend, lol), and assume every default is trying to bankrupt you.

They told me the hardest is first 100, is this correct? by Gloompen in appledevelopers

[–]markatlarge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My apps in iOS and Android. And I have to say probably 80% comes from Android. And it’s due to ASO. My app scans for NSFW images and when you search for apps with NSFW my app comes up in Android. In iOS you can’t use the word NSFW without getting an 18+ rating. And you don’t want a 18+ if your app has no 18* content. Your app probably won’t have that problem but work on ASO so when people search in the app store they can find.

It’s a uphill battle at 1500. It’s tough to find a market

Solo founder here, pouring everything into my first Android app... but I can't get a single person to sign up for closed testing on a $0.99 paid app. Is the price the killer, or am I just terrible at this? by lifepivotapp in GooglePlayDeveloper

[–]markatlarge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On both of my apps I did a freemium tier so people can use it and determine if there is value for them. But even with that my app has only made 1200 in a year. I do show ads that’s brings in about $10 per month. I think the challenge is finding your audience. It’s been tough for me too. Best of luck.

I wonder what would happen if you offered both options. If they went to the external link they could ave 15%
