Thanks to React Native I was able to reuse my experience as a web dev to build an iOS app in just a few days. If I had to learn a tool like Swift, it would most likely took me a lot more time to ship it because of the learning curve.
It's a simple app that blocks apps until you reframe a negative thought into something positive. I built the app for myself to train my mind to be an optimist and thought it might also be useful for others so I published it on the App Store but I didn't expect that it will get this much traction.
Nothing crazy since it's only a few hundred of downloads but it's very motivating to me that it gained that many users in just a short period of time and lots of people are providing feedback that they love the idea and also sending feature requests which will help me improve the app for the next version that I will release.
It's free and I'd really appreciate it if you can give it a try and I would love to hear your feedback! Happy to answer any questions if there's any.
