Working on LaunchSignal onboarding and I’m stuck on a key decision:
Should devs set up their app during onboarding
or should I keep onboarding frictionless and push setup after?
On one hand:
faster activation if they configure everything upfront
On the other:
less drop-off if they get value before doing any work
Curious how you approached this
What worked for you?

Sure and App Store rejections make this even more critical.
One vague or missed issue can cost days.
That loop kills momentum fast.
Structured testing upfront helps catch those blockers early, before Apple does.
That’s exactly the mindset behind LaunchSignal, a bit more effort before launch, but way fewer painful delays after
@martin_delannoy Exactly 💯
Feedback should validate assumptions, not collect opinions.
That’s the whole idea behind LaunchSignal, turning feedback into signal, not noise
@dramaricic Building LaunchSignal
For indie devs who need real, actionable feedback before launching
They pay (or contribute) because getting useful feedback early is harder than getting users 👍

One bug caught by a tester = a few tokens.
The same bug caught by Apple = 2 weeks of delay.
Caught by your first users = a bad public review you can't delete.
Test before you ship.
