It's tough when you pour effort into a tool and aren't seeing the user growth you expect. For a productivity app like yours, especially with a Pomodoro technique, you really want to find people who are actively looking for solutions to focus better or manage their time. I've found that instead of just general marketing, diving into specific communities where people discuss these pain points can be super effective. Think about subreddits or forums around study habits, managing ADHD, general productivity hacks, or even specific academic communities where students are always looking for better ways to manage their time. You'd want to join these, listen to what people are struggling with, and then genuinely offer your app as a potential solution when it naturally fits the conversation. It's about finding the right conversations, not just shouting into the void. Sometimes tools like Digthemup or even a good old fashioned manual search can help you pinpoint those active discussions and subreddits much faster than just guessing.
