A big week ahead. It all starts Monday morning! #AppleLaunch

@tim_cook Yeahhhhh!

I used to think more features = a better app

Spoiler: it just equals a messier app 😅

Your users don't want a Swiss Army Knife.
They want a sharp blade that does the exact job they downloaded it for.

@RoFerreiraDev I agree 💯

Good luck my friend it’s a looooong battle 😁

Always ship tracking before the v0.0.1

Mobile updates aren’t under your control.

Learned that the hard way 😅

@RoFerreiraDev You can definitely force them or nudge them to update using Firebase Remote config and some fronted code

However I don’t have time for that especially when I’m in startup mode 😅

@helderbuilds Especially on mobile apps & even in beta testing, every analytics event tells a story !

[Mohamed L.  @_mlouli]

@saadbelfqih Option 1 forever!!!

[Mohamed L.  @_mlouli]

@gusta_nas Grey for me, you can later on add dark mode option 🤷‍♂️

Took ages. Long enough to start forming elaborate conspiracy theories about the review process 😂

@saadbelfqih Wow 🤯

Catch: tourists ghost.
Curate before every release.
If they don’t open the latest build, remove them.

7/7

Do you know who your “tourist testers” are — and why they matter?

Active = depth.
Tourists = scale.
In tech, you need both.
