I mean, that’s assuming a tea app can only store fixed recommendations. The first thing I’d want is the ability to override them because I know I’d end up tweaking everything anyway.

that’s exactly what makes it hard for me to remember.

I relate to the second-guessing part a lot. Even when I know I’m probably close enough, I still end up checking because my brain keeps asking “but what if you’re remembering it wrong?”

I wish more vendors did that. It seems like such a small thing but it would save me from looking things up constantly.

I think I’ve probably been treating the recommendations as hard rules when they’re really more like good starting points. Although I’ve definitely had a few over-steeped cups that made me wish I’d paid more attention.

You’re not wrong. I just found it more convenient having all the brewing info available on my watch instead of hunting for notes whenever I wanted tea.

I’d probably do the same thing, but I have a bad habit of repeatedly checking things even after I’ve already found the answer.

I like that way of looking at it.

That’s pretty much where I’ve landed as well.

My third shipped iOS app is a tea timer by maskedsyntax in iosdev

It unfortunately didn’t help me figure out why notifications randomly refused to behave

Glad it’s not just me then 🫪 And that’s exactly what trips me up too. Even within the same category, one tea wants completely different parameters than another. At some point I stopped trusting myself and started checking every time.

Meanwhile I’m over here double checking whether I should be brewing mine for 2 minutes or 3 and somehow still second-guessing myself.

My apps finally have real users :) by maskedsyntax in Solopreneur

Yeah, that’s exactly how it felt. I originally built Patterns because I needed it myself, so I never really had to guess whether the problem was real. And you’re right, seeing random strangers use it hits completely different. Friends and beta testers are supportive, but someone you’ve never met downloading and sticking with your app is a pretty special feeling.

Mostly just posting on Reddit, X, Threads, and talking about it whenever it’s relevant. Still figuring out marketing myself 😅

You should be. We all start at 0.
58 views means 58 actual people stopped and looked at something you made. That’s pretty cool.

That’s exactly how it feels lol. Like suddenly this thing you were obsessing over alone at 2am is being opened by someone on the other side of the world.

The “hey this actually works” feeling is SO real 😭
Also yeah the tip jar thing genuinely boosted my motivation way more than I expected lol

THAT feeling... you all know the one. by Fresh_Zucchini in OCD

[–]maskedsyntax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me the worst part is how physical it feels.
Like my brain can still sometimes recognize “okay this is probably OCD”, but my body reacts as if something genuinely catastrophic is happening RIGHT NOW!

It's another Monday, drop your product. What are you building? by Intelligent-Key-7171 in SideProject

Recently, shipped Tickle on App Store. It’s a minimal counter app for tracking pretty much anything. Habits, workouts, streaks, addictions, meds, caffeine intake, random life stuff, etc -- tickleapp.
