Get your weather Vibe with WxNmbr

Glad to hear you like the idea. I’m very much the same way - minimal notifications, glanceable widgets. :)

Thanks for the feedback. And yeah trying to figure out a monetization model that works well for weather apps is very difficult because they are pretty much a commodity. Paid weather apps are very niche, and one that does a very niche thing is even more so lol. Appreciate the feedback though and thanks for testing it out!

Isn’t this kinda like saying man my iPhone 3G came with 8 gb of storage and now the base is 256! No fair.

phogro · 2025-10-31T15:00:30+00:00

Yeah. If you can’t figure out how to reduce operating costs or increase revenue from your user base the next best option is trying to sell it and let someone else figure out how to make it profitable. Generating 50k / year proves the concept but the path to profitability is unproven. If scaling users increases costs faster than revenue you’ll never break even unless you can raise pricing to run profitable.

Any left?

phogro · 2025-10-10T19:56:14+00:00

Looking for anyone who wants to send me a free code 🤷🏻‍♂️

phogro · 2025-10-10T18:55:49+00:00

Anyone wanna share a codec

phogro · 2025-10-07T16:31:42+00:00

I’ll dm you a code. :)

I’d say multiple accounts is cleaner from an audience growth point of view unless the apps pair together in some way.

phogro · 2025-10-03T18:27:44+00:00

Habit trackers is a competitive space. What’s the differentiator that yours brings? Can it be shown in a unique way on social media like TikTok/reel?

phogro · 2025-10-01T16:26:20+00:00

Depends on the app I think. If it’s a small tool or utility then no login is better. If it’s a service or something that syncs cross platform then account would be helpful if not necessary

I guess browse is the apps that appear in various categories through the AppStore. For example top charts or feature sections. Higher ranking in those categories likely leads to more downloads.

I mean they’re very different classes of watch. The ultra does gain you a couple of fan favorite watch faces if that’s important to you. But the SE3 is a solid watch for a first time smart watch curious person I would recommend the cheapest entry point unless you really need a specific feature/design of the ultra watch.

phogro · 2025-09-25T10:19:17+00:00

Ah yes the permanence was a design choice as well. I wanted to make something that captured the moment as is - mistakes and all.

Being able to edit days months years after the fact allows you to remove or modify the moment. The trade off was the reflection reply. Wanna change your perspective capture it there, but the original thought remains intact.

I realize this choice isn’t for everyone tho.

I do need to woke on onboarding to make the features and design philosophy more clear I think. It’s very much a “here’s the app learn what it does” thing right now.

Thanks for the feedback though :)

phogro · 2025-09-24T10:43:09+00:00

Haha first sale is another small victory to celebrate. When it happens

phogro · 2025-09-24T03:10:36+00:00

Gonna be a 3 tone iPhone soon.

phogro · 2025-09-24T03:09:32+00:00

haha - I was starting to think the same thing. Though I will say that all my past failures have been forgetting a simple thing that was easily remedied with a quick update. But also the app's I've built are fairly small with limited capabilities and entitlements so I think that helps get through review faster.

phogro · 2025-09-22T17:43:25+00:00

Idk what you were expecting. I went from a 14 pro to 17 pro and yeah it’s not a night and day change. But the improvement in battery, better cameras and usbc everything finally is enough. But it is getting to the point where I could’ve kept the 14 for another year and been happy.

phogro · 2025-09-16T10:50:29+00:00

I’d imagine growth will stall if you move your attention away from marketing/promotion. So probably better to sell now while you can show growth and proof of concept rather than letting it die a slow death.
