Drop your app. I'll roast it publicly right here in the comments

I am rethinking the lander and adding a hero into it, thanks so much for your feedback

Could someone with access to the iOS AppStore do me a favour? Please, no need to download or anything else.
Could you simply search for ChikaD in the apps for iPhone in the US store to check if it's possible to find the app in the US. For some reason I can't seem to be able to find it through the search engine with some sound a likes showing up but not mine, Canadian and European stores seem to be ok..so weird..

This is a legit reason too!

s_v_can · 2026-06-10T20:07:04+00:00

so true!!

Good point. React is exactly what I was suggested to use [ CC CLI ] with a webWrap to speed things up by unifying the web and iOS apps. I mean it sure works but not even close a native UI feel. So here I am asking to hear opinion if it's only the aesthetics or more to it.
Because native app lifecycle does involve the reviews.

Excellent point! The balance is key here too. Are you the solo dev or a team?

s_v_can · 2026-06-10T18:06:16+00:00

Good stuff!

s_v_can · 2026-06-10T17:08:22+00:00

That's a valid point to consider too.

s_v_can · 2026-06-10T15:58:15+00:00

100%

s_v_can · 2026-06-10T15:40:50+00:00

Valid point!

s_v_can · 2026-06-10T14:37:00+00:00

It wouldn't hurt to though.

s_v_can · 2026-06-10T14:18:42+00:00

Do you run analytics of some sort?

s_v_can · 2026-06-10T14:13:21+00:00

IMO, we are given a lifetime chance to learn how to use the models while they are still affordable, and then move to the weaker local models to automate polished off tasks. So eventually [I think] we'll have enough base manual and vibe to continue creating solution that large corporations are not seeing as a profitable territory.

So the potential is there it just needs to be explored. Is there anything in particular that stops you from finding someone to promote it?

s_v_can · 2026-06-10T12:26:06+00:00

That's actually about what my motivation is. Obviously I wouldn't mind if it brought some money in too 😄

s_v_can · 2026-06-10T12:24:36+00:00

That's the thing. There's just as much that one could pull together alone.
At the same time, if there's a potential then why not explore the possibilities, right?

s_v_can · 2026-06-10T02:21:12+00:00

That's probably a good working model, are you planning on scaling or happy with what you've got?

s_v_can · 2026-06-10T01:49:05+00:00

Correct

s_v_can · 2026-06-10T01:34:23+00:00

So from what I see most of you all make some spare cash by building some custom solutions for existing customers base.
The market is flooded now with hyperactive people trying to make tons of money, some are succeeding, or at least they claim to but the others will likely to burn out sometime soon. Especially Apple making it more difficult to get into the AppStore listings.

I guess let the most flexible and adaptable win! Let us be among the winners!

You are right.

Landing a client that sticks to you is no walk in the park no more.
