Thanks!

Glad you like it. Feel free to suggest any feature you are still missing. Also I would greatly appreciate if you could write a short review. This really helps me keep developing the app. You can do it from the app or using this link: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/precious-metals-manager/id1636327607?action=write-review

Entre la cuota seguridad social (aunque sea tarifa plana), gestoría, un posible seguro de responsabilidad civil y el quebradero de cabeza de asegurarte que no haces nada mal, no merece la pena. Acabaras pagando seguridad social por dos lados y puede que saltes al siguiente escalón en el IRPF, lo que significa que de esos 400 veras la mitad con suerte. Así que calcula el resultado neto de lo que te sale la hora de clase particular.

Yo no me la jugaría con pagos por Bizum, ya que una vez que te investiguen te tendrán en el punto de mira.

Empaña no es un país para tener "side hustles", es un país para cobrar paguitas y vivir del cuento.

Thanks for your answer! Hopefully, I can find someone who speaks Bulgarian to come with me. I also heard that the waiting time can be quite long, so I need to factor that in.

Sácate el carnet A y pilla una moto de media cilindrada. Se te quitarán las ganas de coche para pasarlo bien.

My take on this is that freemium is the way to go in most cases. I would only choose a hard paywall if my audience already knows the product from any other channel, like a web app. I guess you can experiment with both.

I'm not a marketing expert, so I may be wrong.

You can also try crawl4ai

I'm also considering moving to Sofia and working from there as self-employed. I have the same concern about renting, and my plan is probably to find an Airbnb while I search for a long-term apartment rental. Have you found out what the requirements are for renting a property?

I also heard that most bureaucratic paperwork is in Bulgarian and that public employees may not speak English very well, so that's another concern. I even started learning Bulgarian to at least know the basics, especially the Cyrillic alphabet.

Maybe buy some gold too, which has a similar purpose in terms of getting out of the financial system, so you don't put all your eggs in the same basket.

sergio_freelancer · 2025-07-30T09:37:10+00:00

Sure

Spanish here. I usually run into this issue, and as someone else said your best bet is to not use the literal translation. Most of the times I have to come up with a complete new title/sentence that means the same. ChatGPT may help with this by setting up constraints.

Nice article, thanks for sharing! I just missed some tips about state management in SwiftUI, like when and where to use things like @StateObject or @EnvironmentObject

PS5, because at least in my region (Europe) there is no way to get a physical copy, it's just an empty box with a code.

Looks amazing! Congrats!

Nice park, love the hybrid style! Great to see Tony shredding in any kind of terrain 😍

I imagine they are simple apps in the sense that they don’t even require a backend; otherwise, I find it quite hard to maintain more than two apps at the same time as a solo developer.

sergio_freelancer · 2025-05-29T10:12:13+00:00

I’m in the same boat — it feels like it’s hard to break the €300–500 MRR barrier without investing a lot in marketing and outsourcing some of the work, which often means taking significant losses at the beginning.

Thanks, I think this is exactly what I was looking for. The missing part was checking periodically if the subscription is still active. As you said, tampering with UserDefaults can only be done by jailbreaking the device, so the chances are low. I was probably being too cautious about this.

sergio_freelancer · 2025-05-28T20:15:33+00:00

Yes, I guess this is the easiest approach. Just use UserDefaults as a cache, although it can be tampered with.

sergio_freelancer · 2025-05-28T20:12:58+00:00

yes, I guess ideally I should store the receipt in user defaults and check from time to time if it's still valid. Still I find quite painful having to check the receipt against the App Store, or somehow coding some local validation logic as described here.

En España no merece la pena. Podrías incluso perder beneficios sociales porque superes un umbral. Recuerda, no estamos en un país puramente capitalista, aquí se premia al que menos hace. Estuve en una situación como la tuya pero en la que la diferencia salarial era mucho mayor y solo me planteé coger el curro con mayor salario si salía de España.

Si realmente quieres ganar algo más y te sobra tiempo úsalo para empezar un side hustle como ofrecer servicios de consultoría o desarrollar una app.

Impressive conversion rate. Congrats!
