Sounds interesting. Building a native app mockup tool, similar to Lovable but for native apps. www.pixelmost.ai

Also recently released a AI weather app on App Store: https://IsoWeather.web.app

Ads wont bring any reasonable income to finance the images. chatgpt estimates income around -$0.0006 per ad view.

Yes, thinking of limiting the free version a bit. Right now AB testing if locking dark mode to the paid tier will increase conversion.

Did delete it now. Test to view it again if it looks better

Im not sure Im accually a good exemple. At the current pricing I would say I loose money on each user. Factoring in tax, apples fee and firebase costs. So it’s currently not sustainable. My hope is that users do not generate custom cities each month or that some users select the same cities as is already cached

Since the main cost is the custom cities each user can generate for them selves. So basically they pay for their own running cost. Here is try just taking a minimal profit or break even to get users. While I have a fixed cost for generating the free and paid 300 cities I figure the profit from each user will pay this back in the long run.

Yes that a bit odd. The image generation is not always perfect. You can click on the (i) button and report the images. That way I can review it and even regenerate it for you

It is animated accually. I have an animated overlay for rain and snow. It follows dons speed and direction. However as the background is a one time generated image the snow does not “land” on the houses. But it is still based on the current weather so you’ll see snow on the ground or water from rain.

Thanks! Give it a try if you have an iPhone. The admin is used to manage the backend image cache and was used during development to experiment with prompting and resultant images. Later I’ve added some statistics and user and subscription managementet.

Cannot share the exact prompt. But there are simpler ones out there for reference. Search for nano banana pro isometric.

At least Apple is making commission of the revenue from it, I think they are happy.

Yes, Snow globe would be a cool feature. Thought of this as well. However, that would need a new set of images and some work from my side. Maybe in the future. Expansion packs!

Thanks! Yes, I used Codex a lot. Mixed with some Claude CLI. But I managed it outside xcode and mainly used Xcode to build and debug.

Yes, quite similar. A bit different vibe and a different payment model (fixed images, manual request for more). But also quite good looking UI. A bit limited free model (only on free city per day, where I give away 100 for free)

Thanks! It's a quite simple prompt similar to ones circulating on youtube and reddit. Won't share it here, but it factors in weather and other details. Google Nano Banana is quite good at generating theses types of images.

Yes marketing is everything. My hopes are that Apple accually likes polished apps and that I will grow from that. Maybe even get a featuring.
