18 · Co-founder Clarity Studio. Building in public: what we ship, what fails, real numbers.

[PAUL @PaulBuilds00]

I'm Paul, 18, a developer and co-founder at Clarity Studio.

I'm building iOS apps with two friends, experimenting with AI, and figuring out how to turn ideas into products people use.

I'll share my work, learnings, and mistakes along the way.

@b4dgerr To be honest, from AppStore ads

@pcshipp Take a rest man, you deserve it

[PAUL @PaulBuilds00]

@mufasaYC good reminder to keep key buttons out of the top corners, this makes that easier

[PAUL @PaulBuilds00]

@TTrimoreau how long were the slow weeks before replies started picking up? I’m just getting started

[PAUL @PaulBuilds00]

@seraleev wonder if the ai pass ends up stricter on screenshots than a human was

[PAUL @PaulBuilds00]

@julscales Definitely GitHub is the solution, you can have many projects and it’s free

[PAUL @PaulBuilds00]

@djraz369 no warning before a termination is the scary part, one heads up would've fixed it

[PAUL @PaulBuilds00]

@MarioSaputra a travel app could do a lot with that, like adding a stop to today's plan by voice

[PAUL @PaulBuilds00]

@MikahJa did it ever get users or was it built and shelved?

[PAUL @PaulBuilds00]

@miloshjokic 15 years of client work is a serious head start for your own apps, congrats. Which app pulled most of that day?

[PAUL @PaulBuilds00]

@bot curious if it can ping you when a price drops on something saved

[PAUL @PaulBuilds00]

@DanielSmidstrup still in the 33 day stretch myself, good to know it speeds up after

[PAUL @PaulBuilds00]

asking because most slideshow wins i see are first apps in fresh niches. calorie tracking is about as crowded as it gets

[PAUL @PaulBuilds00]

we've tried meta ads for our calorie tracker, tiktok slideshows are next.

if you grew an app with slideshows, did you post from an app account or a personal one?

[PAUL @PaulBuilds00]

@vovalukashov $80 for zero payers vs free traffic that converts, rough math for google

[PAUL @PaulBuilds00]

@averycode a rejection turning into a web launch is a fun plot twist

[PAUL @PaulBuilds00]

@VadimStrizheus 1 video means that’s the right way

[PAUL @PaulBuilds00]

@SebastianRoehl @HabitKit the ads manager UI alone almost made us quit before launching anything

[PAUL @PaulBuilds00]

@pcshipp The building part

[PAUL @PaulBuilds00]

@XFreeze the marketers part is what gets me, they never had a data person before
