indie mobile dev. aso, app review and paywall stuff. building

[Yusuf Uzan @devuzan]

made a quick walkthrough of the thing i've been building. paste the rejection clause, read it in plain words, see when it last changed, ask your case in your own words, or drop your store link and check the listing. it's free, https://t.co/K2KRa7LHxe

@CihadTurhan @istifadilkcesi 1 ay cok uzun ya, ben daha yeni sifirdan bi app yayinladim 1 gun icinde onaylanip magazaya girdi. sabirlar diliyorum :)

@keremcesme @BeatstoBytes design spami botlarda verebilir, bot once eula eksigini yakaliyor duruyor, sonrakinda eula check olunca binary controlda kaliyor. bot hepsini cikaralim tek tek de bu developer bunlari duzeltsin mantigi ile calismiyor.

paywall rejection i keep seeing: yearly plan shown as $1.92/week in huge font and the real $99.99/yr tiny underneath. apple wants the amount thats actually billed to be the most prominent price on screen, so flip it. the per week math can stay as the small line

[Yusuf Uzan @devuzan]

@RIaparov57154 its in apples docs actually, intro offers are one per subscription group. easiest way to see it urself is a sandbox account, take the monthly trial then open yearly and the trial is just gone. ppl rarely write in about it tho, they mostly just bounce off the paywall

[Yusuf Uzan @devuzan]

heads up if ur monthly and yearly are in the same subscription group, apple gives each person only one intro offer per group. so if they already burned the free trial on monthly the yearly trial wont show for them. check eligibility in storekit before ur paywall promises a free trial lol

[Yusuf Uzan @devuzan]

@realjoeginley yep thats the one, just remember its async so await it before u render the paywall. ive seen quite a few paywalls still saying start ur free trial to ppl who arent eligible, thats bad ux and can get u a rejection too

[Yusuf Uzan @devuzan]

@wangyan_im yep and its worse than it reads, they tap start free trial and get charged on day one. thats a refund request plus a 1 star review waiting to happen lol

[Yusuf Uzan @devuzan]

@mankaff_ kinda. win back offers themselves get shown by apple on the store page or in ur app via storekit, u cant really email those. for email use offer codes tho, u can send a redemption link. only works if u actually collected their email ofc

[Yusuf Uzan @devuzan]

churned subscribers arent gone for good. apple has win back offers in app store connect, a discounted price only for ppl whose sub lapsed, and u can pick who qualifies by how long they paid and how long ago they left. way cheaper than paying ads to get the same person back

[Yusuf Uzan @devuzan]

@mankaff_ yeah fair, if the fix doesnt land u just wiped ur stars for nothing. and u only get to pick reset when u submit the version, cant wait and see after. so id only do it when testflight ppl confirm the bug is actually gone

[Yusuf Uzan @devuzan]

shipped a fix for whatever was tanking ur rating? apple lets u reset the summary star rating when u release the new version, its just an option in app store connect. old written reviews stay up tho, so only do it if the update actually fixed what ppl were complaining about

[Yusuf Uzan @devuzan]

@mankaff_ depends on the app tbh. app store connect shows conversion per variant plus a confidence level, i wouldnt call a winner before its pretty high. first screenshot usually moves it the most, tiny tweaks often show basically nothing

[Yusuf Uzan @devuzan]

if ur guessing which screenshots convert better just test it. product page optimization in app store connect lets u run up to 3 variants against ur current page for up to 90 days. icons work too but the alt icon has to ship inside the binary first so plan it a version ahead

[Yusuf Uzan @devuzan]

@alvolioo yep thats the combo. catch them on the way out, then win back after they lapse. just dont make the win back offer too wide tho, if its cheaper than ur normal intro price ppl figure out they can cancel and wait for it

[Yusuf Uzan @devuzan]

@jerry543 fair, if they already live in the repo they can just read ur podfile / spm deps. ngl xcodes privacy report from the archive does half the work too, pulls every sdks privacy manifest into one pdf. not every sdk ships one tho so still worth a quick look

[Yusuf Uzan @devuzan]

@raroque that dip then straight line up right after the screenshot refresh is such a clean aso before and after lol. curious if it was conversion on the product page that moved first or u started ranking for new keywords too

[Yusuf Uzan @devuzan]

@manuNewLight yep its underrated. just make sure the alt icon is already in a live build or ppo wont let u pick it, learned that the hard way lol

[Yusuf Uzan @devuzan]

@BayHicbirsey @ibrahimery1 para, kısa vade, ama büyük risk

[Yusuf Uzan @devuzan]

@TerekhinIvan 4.9 from 2k ratings on play is really strong ngl. the rating prompt timing matters a lot on both stores tho, asking at a bad moment can get 1 stars on ios too

[Yusuf Uzan @devuzan]

@TerekhinIvan 11 paywall changes in a week is a lot to untangle. id keep a quick before and after per app, otherwise its hard to know which change actually moved revenue
