Before AI, you spent days making code work. With AI, you spend days on other things to make the app cooler.

Building something cool, part 2!

I’m using @rive_app to create controlled animations on my onboarding.

I’ve always dreamed of being able to do this since I started my mobile app journey five years ago.

I ran a 3-month A/B test on pricing in one of my apps.

$34.99 converted 3.35x better than $39.99... just a $5 difference.

Small pricing changes can have a massive impact on conversion.

[Adrien Cens @AdrienCens]

New app incoming with a mascot. Will you guess what the app is about ?

@iuliatech Open Figma make. Pitch your app 20 times with low instructions to let the ai be creative. Add Little design twist (minimalist design, maximalist, calm, human…). Ask AI to summarise 5 best results. Create one final design with this instructions and voilà

@1Umairshaikh And asking people to rate it is even even harder

@lukeliasi @pcshipp iPhones are harder to automate as bots, so TikTok tends to trust more users on iOS. I haven’t personally verified this theory 😅

@marbennaid I had to set up a proxy to the USA; it was not easy, but it works now.

Last week I started posting on 4 TikTok accounts about my app. Videos did little views but results are here.
