ScrollScholar - App Blocker That Makes You Study
GOLD! EXECUTIONGood signs and bad signs. The good: A user tried my app 3 weeks ago; the trial expired, and they just came back to the app and purchased it 3 weeks later when the school year started. That, to me, is a really good sign. It shows the product was good enough for them to make a conscious choice to...- Jessey

A New Path to the Fastlane - App Development
EXECUTIONNot to be harsh, but I can't help but feel you are taking too long in the development process by constantly changing the concept of the app. This thread was opened in 2024. I can guarantee you that whichever concept you pick, it will not be the right one once it hits the market. That's the...- Jessey

ScrollScholar - App Blocker That Makes You Study
GOLD! EXECUTIONI'm trying to update this consistently, at least every Sunday, because it allows me to go back, review my analytics and where the app is at, and then focus on what I've been referring to as the limiting factor or the one thing that is the bottleneck in the application. For example, previously it...- Jessey

GOLD! EXECUTIONWow. I'm pretty sure there's a bug with my exit offer. I noticed people were converting at a much higher rate when I didn't have it. I added PostHog so I could visually see their behavior. People are hitting the subscribe button on the exit offer, but it doesn't go through! I've probably lost...- Jessey

How to be an entrepreneur without a business entity?
OFF-TOPICGenuine question, are you a lawyer? Because I have heard of some startups having legal disputes with former employers because of the fact they worked on their business while there. Granted, I'm coming from a big tech background where they have the legal budget to do such things. I don't...- Jessey

How to be an entrepreneur without a business entity?
OFF-TOPICThis is very common for software roles. I turned down a role at a well known company because of this less than a month ago. I would've had to shut down my app business basically, or they could potentially state they owned the IP.- Jessey

How to be an entrepreneur without a business entity?
OFF-TOPICI've been in a similar situation where the contract of the job stated that anything I do on my own time could potentially be theirs. How enforceable it is, I don't know. But to deal with it, I left the job & turned down a job offer when presented with the option.- Jessey

GOLD! EXECUTIONI'm planning on creating another campaign on Facebook, primarily for founder-led ads, and in this case, I'm gonna drive engagement there. Now, this kind of lines up with what I said earlier, where my friend mentioned running partnership ads and using the organic post in that case, and that's...- Jessey

GOLD! EXECUTIONOkay, I have a plan for my paywall and for conversions. I updated my onboarding a little bit. I added the ability for people to leave feedback if they abandon the subscribe event, and also more feedback options for when they cancel as well. The exit offer now has a timeline of their free trial...- Jessey

GOLD! EXECUTIONBoy oh boy, there is a lot of conflicting info on Meta ads and how to run them properly. I see something different almost every day. Also, AI doesn't seem to know either; I've gotten about three different answers for the optimal way to run a test campaign. With Andromeda, it seems like Meta...- Jessey

GOLD! EXECUTIONI've been doing some reading and from what I see from other app founders, running a Facebook ads campaign for installs vs free trial/paid conversions can make a HUGE difference. So that could be why I'm seeing such a drop-off at the paywall (at least partially). Everything else is looking pretty...- Jessey

GOLD! EXECUTIONYeah, I ultimately just submitted it to Apple (took 15 mins) and moved on. AS for the influencer/affiliate marketing, I've heard of something called SideShift, which is primarily for ugc creators. I plan on trying that in the future. I can report back. Right now I run a 3-day free trial...- Jessey

GOLD! EXECUTIONI already have a copycat on the App Store. The name is exactly the same, but with a space lol Copycat I'm probably going to submit something with Apple and maybe file a trademark. Anyone have experience here? Part of me just wants to submit the dispute with Apple, and keep focusing on the...- Jessey

GOLD! EXECUTIONJust got my first renewal! Conversion rate at the paywall has been BAD, though. I will have updated numbers later this week. I have had 190 downloads since July 27. My conversion rate (as defined by downloads/unique impressions) on the App Store is sitting at an avg of 15% since that date...- Jessey
