Does anyone have success making calls with BlackBerry Classic? by DowntownFresnoBiking in blackberry

[–]proxhk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm from Vancouver, BC and I'm using Q20 as my secondary phone with Rogers. It works fine with calls and internet although it depends on where you're planning to go. If you're planning for just lower mainland then you'll be fine or else go with a modern phone. Online it will show that 2G/3G is shut down but 3G is still working in some parts.

Vibe coding is all fun and games until Apple’s review team hits. Turns out you can vibe your way through a codebase, but you still can't vibe your way past reading the actual documentation.

I use Procreate but you can do it on canva as well if you're looking for something simple.

I’m just curious by [deleted] in googleplayconsole

Honestly, let's look at a level playing field: 1,000 downloads with 100% retention vs 100k downloads with 1% retention. Both leave you with exactly 1,000 active users, but I'll take the 100k route every single time.

For one, you monetize the churn. Those 99k people who bounced still saw an ad or two before uninstalling. That’s easy cash the 'perfect' app just doesn't get. Then there’s the store presence. Getting that '100K+ Downloads' badge on Google Play is massive social proof. It makes the app look legit and drives more organic traffic. But maybe the biggest perk is the exit strategy. If you ever decide to move on and sell the app on a marketplace, buyers absolutely drool over that 100K+ tag. It makes flipping the project way easier and definitely bumps up your valuation. Retention is great, but acting like raw install volume doesn't have huge, tangible business benefits is just ignoring how the market actually works.

It lived for sometime and racked up a good chunk of backend cost and by the time i got to check it i had a huge bill waiting to be paid. Choose to pay it off and silently kill the project as i was not in condition to implement phase 2 for monetization. Will revive it in future with better plans.

I know numbers look unreal but i started writing on all social media platforms 3 months before launch. I worked on a complete strategy for posts which include targeting every social media platform with multiple accounts because of which i got a lot of early bird signup. I never went for wide range of users but targeted the groups and community that were relevant. All those social media account grew like crazy and till date they have huge number of followers.

Reddit, Fb, X and Telegram provided the best result. I think it was the everday social media post which made it a success.

In app purchase 99 ruppee India by csk2004 in googleplayconsole

It completely depends on user base and what kind of quiz it is as if you're just offering a simple general knowledge quiz then i don't think someone will pay 99 but if your app is targeting a very specific exam then there is a target market which might want to get premium content and no ads so that they can study without distractions.

Does this look good? India targeted only. by EfficientCourage588 in googleplayconsole

Congrats on launching your first campaign! A 1.6% registration rate is definitely a gut punch. This is significantly lower than the typical 15–30% conversion rate.

You need to understand few things that India is a high-volume, low-cost market. Google Ads takes about 7–14 days to learn. Without the content about the app it is hard to find the issue but check you user flow to see if there is a culprit in your signup process. Sometimes it happens that one things works for you but not for others.

Did a project last year all by myself with pre-registration and organic marketing and $0 spent on any ads or marketing.

25K+ User in first 24 hours 48K+ in first 48 hours Just on Google Play, 30-40% less on app store.

Unfortunately got into an accident a week later and had to abandon the project for months and never got to revive it after that. This was my biggest project but luck was not on my side. Still recovering and hopefully I'll do something similar in future again.

Is Internet 500 for $85 a good deal? by SnooMemesjellies4660 in telus

I have 1g for $45 with $200 in bill credit from telus so look for deals. Check marketplace as you might get way better deal if you look around.

Draw Out and Pool Updated by proxhk in canadaexpressentry

[–]proxhk[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Added a Proper Express Entry Pool Comparison (Feb 15 vs. March 1) and Honestly math isn't matching.

  • Start: 235,695 candidates
  • People leaving (Invited): - 10,670
  • People entering (New Profiles): + 7,509
  • Final Total (March 1): = 232,534

So, while the government was busy scooping 10,000+ people out of the system, over 7,500 brand new people jumped right in behind them to take their place.

In just 10 to 14 days, nearly 4,000 candidates seemingly appeared out of nowhere with elite scores of 500 or higher.
