A small 3D illustration of [an empty open glass jar], slightly cartoonish and stylised but not childish: soft rounded edges, gently exaggerated proportions. [Clear glass with a soft light-blue tint, smooth and glossy], with a crisp, clearly defined [light-blue] rim, base and outer edges so its outline reads well on both a white and a near-black background. It must look equally good in an app's light and dark theme: no white baked into the [glass], no white glow or halo round the edges, highlights soft and tinted [blue] rather than pure white. Three-quarter view, soft even studio light, clean and friendly, high detail. The whole [jar] in frame, nothing cut off. Transparent background PNG, isolated object, no background, no shadow, no ground, no reflections, no text, no letters, no people.

Swap the parts in [brackets] for your object and its material.

Scrapped 3D icon set concept for @selferaapp.

I decided not to use them in the app, but they were too nice not to share.

@velnix_wp @claudeai On phones this effect is not really present. The idea with gyroscope is great idea I have to look into that, thanks!

The waitlist page for https://t.co/KZ72Z1XXml, built in a few prompts with @claudeai.

The background is one Nano Banana 2 image plus a depth map. WebGL shifts each pixel toward the cursor by how close it is, so the flat image moves like a 3D scene.

The logo is a liquid-metal shader in the app's colours.

@lumopages @claudeai It does not, but thanks for the suggestion 🙂

This men's hair analyzer app found the perfect content machine.

Forma posts tier lists of haircuts on celebrities on, with AI images of each cut and an AI voiceover.

At the end they plug the app to find the cut that suits your face best.

It's already No. 188 in Lifestyle.

Before you start building your next idea, ask yourself if you can easily make viral content for it. If not, move on.

A simple way to improve empty states in mobile apps: use 3D icons instead of flat ones, like Airbnb does.

Just connect the Canva MCP to Claude Code and ask it to generate an Airbnb-inspired 3D icon for the page, in your brand style.

@jaimintf Seems like the Her75 app copied the design

@jaydwivedi_ so clean

I don't think the ideas are the problem, those exact ideas already make a lot of money.

I think you just never really did marketing, and therefore you find it too hard to start.

Start simply by generating a AI UGC video, for example, a girl acting surprised, put some text hook over it, and then the app showcase. It's gonna take you an hour at most.

Then post it on TikTok. Once you see the first likes and views, you stop questioning the idea and will get motivated.

Keep posting TikToks like these, learn from them, and later expand to other formats.

Before you realize it, you made your first dollar online.

@attenisalluneed I have the exact same problem

@oiharshit Love it

@TTrimoreau Talking with people.

that's why I think things like AI receptionists only make sense outside of business hours

Takeaways:

- a strong metaphor beats a strong feature list → flights, not timers
- if your UI is distinctive enough, ads are simple: just record the product
- lifetime tier converts subscription-haters

last post: an app that grew with an AI-generated bride
this time: one that grew by filming its own UI

there's no single playbook

The pricing is smart too:

$3.99/mo, $18.99/yr and lifetime at ~$19.99

lifetime priced at ~1 year of subscription

for students (their core users), "pay once, own forever" removes the #1 objection to subscriptions
