@voidstern.net Found a few reviews without responses for your app: storereviews.dev/preview/tidur I don't understand why the App Connect doesn't email us the reviews honestly. How do you stay on top of it?

My mom used to force me to bed at 8:30 pm sharp. Adult me “slightly deviated” from that plan… Now it’s 1 AM YouTube rabbit holes every night. So I built an app that shuts my Mac down at 10 pm whether I like it or not 😂 Free, configurable. Finally making mommy proud again. Download: http

12 months ago my website got 0 visitors from Google. Well… maybe 30. I started a blog but didn’t want to waste weeks writing long articles nobody would read. So I gave ChatGPT the exact layout for every post to write, then manually added screenshots + logos of every app I mentioned. Because I

I've always hated the icon I created for my app Mini Stopwatch. But for some reason, it's one of my most successful apps. I have a 16.4% conversion rate, which is pretty good from what I've heard. I did choose a color that was radically different from other timers out there, so maybe that contri

I've been running this 50% promo for a while now for Mini Stopwatch. And the reason it lasted so long is that I had hardcoded the promo in the app, which made it inconvenient to change. Yes, you can teach best practices at work and follow none when you code 😊. But here, I actually followed

gray matter vs Wordpress: any made the move from/to either or?

Users are quick to write a 1-star review when it doesn't work the way they expect. Not so quick to write a 5-star review when things are working well haha.

I created a clone of a paid app. I saw that app a few months back. I found it cool, but thought it was overpriced for what it was. Created a clone and distributed it for free: https://clemstation.com/apps/my-clocks Is that bad?

From Apple's documentation it looks like “gesture,timer” >>> “gesture timer” for AppStore keywords? Is that always true? Or in some instances the full expression is better?

Have to use the style param to pass colors as parameters with Tailwindcss. Otherwise the engine doesn't see them therefore doesn't add them to the final CSS. I didn't know that but makes sense...

Ever finish a book and three months later you barely remember a thing from it?

🍭 Need a ChatGPT joke for your next tech standup? Q: Why did the DNS server break up with the IP address? A: Because it couldn’t resolve the relationship. 💔

“gesture,timer” >>> “gesture timer” for AppStore keywords?

You get teleported to a world where no apps or SaaS exist. What’s the first one you’re building?

Had 3 different ideas to solve the same problem.
 Couldn’t pick just one… so I built all 3. As separate apps. Just build mode! 🚀

What’s something you’d ‘love to build this year?

I love engaging with smaller accounts, as I find the content more personal! If you're also small, and post about tech, reply so I can connect with you.

As a kid, when making gifts for mothers day, the teacher had to do the cuttings for me because I was so bad…. This is me 30+years later putting a screen protector. I never improved with my hands I guess.

Just found the most helpful shortcut in Finder today:
 Hit CMD + SHIFT + N to instantly create a new folder! I can't believe I didn't know this before... Game changer. 🔥

It blows my mind how people call a $4.99 macOS app 'too expensive,' yet I see mobile apps charging $9.99 a week with thousands of reviews and no one complain about price.

Those of you building Saas, why did you pick it over building mobile app?

How do you find time to exercise when building apps / saas?

Social Media is better with connections! 🤝 if you’re in tech, say hi, let’s chat! 🥳

Are you more of an early bird or a night howl?

Which app do you spend the most screen time on (mobile only) ? 🕒📱

Built this menubar Audio Meter, three months ago. Took me & my buddy ChatGPT a weekend to build. I thought it would be too niche to make some bucks. Surprised me that it almost makes $100 MRR. 💸

I bought this matte screen protector and I love it. Too bad I don’t know how to install it without bubbles. 😅

ll never get it.
 A user reports an issue, I take time to dig in, even build tools to troubleshoot…
 Then? They just ghost me. If you care enough to complain, at least care enough to follow up. 🤷‍♂️

App builders, I have some time, follow me and share your app, I’ll give it 5 stars. (MacOS app only)

What’s an app you loved that no longer exists? 🪦

No, I decided I wouldn't migrate to Github from Bitbuket. My only motivation was to have that little commit charts to keep me motivated. Futile. I know what I put in every day. Not worth the hassle.

Is building SaaS harder than a mobile app because it’s harder to promote?

In your experience does the profile pic has an impact on how many followers you get?

Are you guys taking creatine? Or is that strictly for people who exercise a lot?

As a Software Engineer, do you use No Code tools? If yes which ones?

Do you take notes when you read books?

How’s your motiviation? Always strong or sometimes you feel the weight of working every day?

twitter’s better with connections! 🚀 if you’re in tech, say hi, let’s chat! 🤝

Do you take the time to read when you’re building apps/saas?

Which one? - have a 9-5 and use invest $$ in your side project - quit and use your time as $$

Every time I open my Sales page on App Connect, I get nervous. The fear of seeing $0. Ever since I made $500 MRR as a goal….

4 years ago, I published a Mouse Jiggler on the AppStore. 💻 Made a solid $800 -$1000 MRR for a full year. 💸 Then Apple decided to remove it. 🚫 So I published it independently. 🚶‍♂️ And it made ~$100 MRR ever since. 💵 The AppStore does bring you visibility! 👀

I thought this app would crush it. 🚀 Everyone has a website they deploy with Netlify. Everyone loves the path of least resistance. So an app that tracks your deployments right from the menubar should make some 💵, right? Well… ...it made me $1 in the last 3 months. 😂

A ChatGPT joke for your next tech meeting: Q: Why did the IP address cross the router? A: To get to the other subnet. 😏
