I recently launched Couple Games: Sex Timer on the App Store.

The idea was to create something fun and playful for couples, with intimacy games and challenges that help partners spend more quality time together.

Like many indie developers, building the app was the easy part. Getting people to discover it has been much harder.

I'm currently experimenting with ASO (not much on that end), but I'd love to learn from others who've marketed relationship or lifestyle apps.

A few questions:

• How did you get your first 100–1,000 users?
• Which marketing channels worked best for you?
• Any communities or creators you'd recommend for apps in this space?
• Are there any specific suggestions on the product improvements?

I'd really appreciate any advice or lessons you've learned from launching your own apps.

Hey everyone,

I recently launched my first iOS game - Shikaku Puzzle: Patches Game.

It's a logic puzzle game where you divide the grid into rectangles based on the numbers provided. Simple to learn, but surprisingly challenging as the puzzles get larger.

If you use and enjoy the game, leave an honest App Store review and help out this indie developer.

Thanks!

Hey everyone,

I recently launched Budget Tracker Planner for macOS.

I built it for people who want a simple way to track expenses, manage budgets, bills & subscriptions due dates, and get a clearer picture of their finances without a complicated setup.

For those who use budgeting apps on Mac, what features do you find most useful? Do you prefer simplicity or more advanced financial analytics?

Your suggestions are most welcome. I would highly appreciate it if you could take a moment to give a review also if you loved it. I'd love to hear your feedback. Have a nice day!

Hey everyone,

I launched this iOS app Panic Exit on May 18 and wanted some honest feedback/advice from people here.

Current stats:
• 58 first-time downloads
• 3.52K impressions
• 2.36% average conversion rate
• Subscription app
• No paid ads

The app is inspired by my own panic and anxiety attack experiences and techniques that have helped me overcome.

I’m trying to understand:
Are these numbers decent for an early indie launch?

Is it normal to not get any subscriptions initially?

What should I focus on next — ASO, retention, monetization, social content, referrals?

Would really appreciate any honest feedback or suggestions from people who’ve been through this before 🙏

App Store Link - https://apps.apple.com/app/id6764320483

Open to feedback/suggestions on this app -

• Anything on the product page -- ASO, Screenshots, Icon
• What are the features that I can look forward to adding or enhance in the existing features.

Looking forward to the feedback and suggestions from the community. Thanks! 🙏🏻

I recently launched an iPhone app called Panic Exit: Anxiety Relief, and honestly, it started as something I built for myself during anxious moments.

I’ve dealt with panic and sudden anxiety episodes personally, and a lot of apps I tried either felt too overwhelming, too clinical, or packed with distractions when all I really needed was something calm and immediate.

So I vibe-coded a simple app focused on gentle support during stressful moments.

It includes:

• Breathing exercises
• Grounding techniques
• Quick calming tools
• Fast access when anxiety hits

I wanted it to feel private, soft, and supportive — like something made by a real person who understands those moments, not just another productivity-style wellness app.

The app just went live on the App Store:

Curious if others here prefer minimal calming apps or more feature-heavy wellness apps.

Working on other integrations for future updates to make the app even handier.
Open to suggestions and feedback!
