Hey, #BuildInPublic,

The first sale wasn't a fluke!

@RetroSelfieApp picked up 4 more paying users in August - $12.84 total, split across iOS and Android.

Still tiny. Still real. Building in public. 📈

[Atanas Dimitrov @SeishinBG]

I have a conversion problem with @RetroSelfieApp and I don't understand why.

890 signups. 574 AI edits. $3.75 revenue.

57% of people who sign up never generate a single edit. Not "try once and leave" - never even try.

[Atanas Dimitrov @SeishinBG]

6 months of building solo, and today @RetroSelfieApp got its first-ever paying customer!

Not a test, not me - a real stranger!

Small number, huge feeling. 🎉📸

Every pitch deck in 2026: "AI-powered" on slide one.

400+ Reddit posts from habit tracker users - know what they actually want?

A widget. A streak freeze. A pretty grid.

Ship the boring version first.

Building @GridHabitsApp - no fluff, just a green grid.

[Atanas Dimitrov @SeishinBG]

Every habit tracker on the app stores is a glorified to-do list with a subscription.

Change my mind!

I'm building one that isn't. @GridHabitsApp - GitHub-style contribution graph.

No account wall!
Free tier actually works!

Top 3 text-to-image models this week:

🥇GPT-Image-2
🥈Grok-Imagine-Image-2.0
🥉Reve-2.1

@RetroSelfieApp runs on Nano Banana 🍌 instead - not #1 on the board, but the right fit for the job. Elo isn't the same as fit.

I killed our @RetroSelfieApp's lens icon! 🔪

Here's the research that made me do it - 18 competitor icons, Apple's own HIG, and one uncomfortable stat:

25% of App Store conversion comes from the icon alone! 🤯

I finally refreshed the @RetroSelfieApp landing page! 🚀

The app outran the site. This pass was about clarity: mobile, light/dark, less noise, faster "oh, I get it."

Honest takes welcome 👇

[RetroSelfie: AI Photo Editor @RetroSelfieApp]

RetroSelfie 7.3 is out - and it’s not a "bug fix" update.
It's accounts, glow-up stacks, and a gallery that finally feels like yours.

Quick tour 🧵

[RetroSelfie: AI Photo Editor @RetroSelfieApp]

NEW: Gallery + monetization, cleaned up

• Search & themed gallery
• Re-edit shots you already saved

Plus: older edits stay visible in your home gallery (that bug had to die).
