🚨 SALE ALERT 🚨
I'm selling an iOS app I built
I still love how this app turned out... but I couldn't figure out marketing for this one
So maybe you can!
I realized recently that to build something you need to enjoy not just the product but also the marketing process
I just didn't enjoy doing IG reels and I've now moved on to building other products

@camjodev This looks like a copy but to what extent? Is it the logo, website, or just because it’s the same functionality, if that’s the case then, you actually don’t own the IP for a pokemon scanner, there are tons of paid APIs to build this on..
@marclou Amazing! In my opinion this is a better outcome than a corporate 100M funded company, you are living life, and I hope you live a long one!! 🙌🏻
Any advice on selling AI Receptionist to small businesses? My prices are good, and the agents come with an own platform to manage them, also 24/7 support for them!
@james_x012@matthias_mrc That’s what I meant, who’s going to give it the right input? The client? The non-technical founder of a plastic company? You will always need a driver for this super AI car.
Shipping your first iOS app deserves way more credit.
You start with “I’ll build a simple app” and suddenly you’re:
- Finding your way around App Store Connect
- Learning what certificates, and .p8 files actually do
- Finding out what a D-U-N-S number if you want to enroll company account
- Fighting Xcode to get a build out
- Figuring out the difference between a Bundle ID, an Apple ID, and an SKU
- Setting up subscriptions, even with tools like Adapty, there’s still plenty to figure out
- Filling out tax forms and banking details before earning your first dollar
- Staring at “Missing Compliance” and wondering what you missed
- Answering privacy questions about your app and every SDK you added
- Learning that privacy manifests are a whole separate thing
- Resizing screenshots to the exact dimensions Apple wants
- Debugging why your subscription products won’t load in the sandbox
- Discovering your first in-app purchase needs to be submitted with an app version
- Getting an “Invalid Binary” after everything built fine locally
- Watching your TestFlight build expire while you’re still working on the app
- Building account deletion before you even have users
- Setting up a demo account so App Review can get past your login screen
- Learning that “Add for Review” and “Submit for Review” are two different steps
- Getting rejected because you haven't added a privacy policy to your description.
- Going back and forth with App Review over rejections
I wonder how many good apps never make it through this list.
If yours did, give yourself some credit. That first launch is a real achievement.
