Wow - what an honour! So happy and proud to have @trymomego featured as App Of The Day today!

[John McEvoy @johnmarkerpen]

@MattCowlin Just came in right now (Monzo Business). Very strange though - looks like it was sent as an instant/CHAPS-style payment instead of the usual ‘payroll’ style payment where you can see it pending for several days beforehand. Maybe issues with their automated finance systems?

@jackfriks Tried a few cheaper alternatives before splashing out on one. There’s only one real option if you want to make sure the colors on your display exactly match what will appear in a finished website/app on an iPhone. It’s expensive, but I know I’ll be using it for years to come.

@jakemor @Superwall Thanks Jake! Will start an a/b test this week 👍

@newokbro @starter_story Most cities in North America, Europe and Oceania provide it as open data - check out Trimet in Portland, OR for an example: https://t.co/dkenFdSlwh

For anyone looking to increase their app trial start rate: volume! I spent six months this year on 37 onboarding and paywall experiments. Most failed. Three moved the needle from 4.4% to 7.8% (and not the ones I was expecting).

@animikh_aich @levelsio @sepiropht SQLite works just fine - especially great for sharing across multiple servers (read-only setup)

[John McEvoy @johnmarkerpen]

Thank you @AppStore for featuring Momego today in the UK & Ireland - it means a lot!

@JordanMorgan10 Quick tip: use Switchr to switch App Stire countries to see which ones you’ve been featured in: https://t.co/dvjVsMdm6G

@jeiting Right here - subs for premium features + AdMob/AppLovin for free users: https://t.co/xtYNlhhDIB

@emcro It does say ‘gross profit’ - maybe the $8m is after OpEx like API costs - what’s left is what can be invested back into the company

[John McEvoy @johnmarkerpen]

@emcro Even better, if you tap on a tag you might just be first in the list - bonus!

[John McEvoy @johnmarkerpen]

@stevepyoung Absolutely right Steve! I go through at least 3 experiments a month, and most don’t move the needle. But then finally one succeeds, and those improvements start to compound. Just got to keep moving!

[John McEvoy @johnmarkerpen]

@JustMeDevin This is without a doubt the best Liquid Glass icon set I’ve seen so far! Well done!

[John McEvoy @johnmarkerpen]

@malikatifsaleem @levelsio Yes, got a GPU-optimised VPS specifically for text summarisation - works great, spits out summarisations quick using llama as part of a cronjob running every 60 seconds

@joris97jansen Hey thanks! Really, all of this comes from organic growth: limits reached, servers throwing up errors, then finding ways to make everything stable for the longest time possible so I don’t have to debug server logs at 3am 🤣🤣
