Hey everyone 👋

I'm one of the developers of Translate Ace.

We built this app to make translation smarter, so people don’t end up misunderstanding each other because of language barriers. None of us want “I’ll call you back” to be interpreted as “I will call from behind,” right? That’s why we’ve been improving the app to make sure people can truly understand each other’s meaning.

We launched the app last week. Feel free to try it out and leave your thoughts in the comments.

What Translate Ace does:

1️⃣ Camera Translation — point your camera at a menu, sign, or document and get an instant translation

2️⃣ Voice Conversation — real time two way voice translation for face to face conversations

3️⃣ Text Translation — straightforward, fast, accurate text input

4️⃣ Keyboard Translation — translate directly from your keyboard without switching apps

We offer a an extended trial. If the subscription screen pops up, just close it to continue using the app.

If you try it and find it useful, an App Store rating would mean a lot to us, especially a five star rating if you feel we’ve earned it.

We’re a small team and we read every single piece of feedback. We can’t wait to hear what you think especially if you find a phrase we got wrong. That’s exactly what we need to know.

I built TestLaunch because I keep seeing Play Store developers posting that they need testers, feedback, or people to join their testing links.

TestLaunch is a free place to list your app, share your testing link, and let testers find projects that need help.

You can add your app name, platform, category, test duration, contact email, description, testing link, and what kind of feedback you are looking for.

The goal is simple: give Play Store developers one clean page to share instead of chasing scattered tester posts everywhere.

It is brand new, so feedback is welcome.

Wrapped a 4-month solo build and shipped Reflect on iOS last week.

It's a journal app — voice transcription in 10 languages, paper-journal OCR, and AI insights over your own entries (Yearly Narrative, "Ask AI" with citations from your writing).

Stack:

- React Native + Expo SDK 54, EAS Build

- Firebase (Firestore + Cloud Functions on Node 22)

- Gemini via Vertex AI server-side, ADC — no client-side key

- RevenueCat for subs

- Native Apple Watch companion

- ~52 screens, 10 languages (EN/FR/ES/PT/DE/IT/AR/KO/JA/HI)

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6762427801 (Disclosure: my app.)

Happy to answer anything about the architecture, Expo 54 stability, or the server-side Gemini setup.

A few things I'd love this sub's take on:

1. Vertex AI vs. AI Studio key. I went Vertex + ADC to keep the key off the client. It added boilerplate. Worth it for you, or do you stick with a key behind a proxy?
2. Apple Watch companion. Has yours actually driven discovery, or is it purely retention?
3. Cold launch with 0 followers. Beyond ASO, what actually worked for your initial distribution?
4. Localization. Did shipping in 5+ languages pay off commercially, or would English-only have been fine for early validation?

I built a simple expense tracker app that works 100% offline.

No account, no data collection.

I’m looking for early users to test it and give feedback.

Hey everyone,

We recently crossed almost 1,000 downloads and around $300 in revenue.

Still small numbers, but enough to start learning real things from real users. Here are the biggest lessons so far:

1. ASO matters way more than I expected
Around 80–90% of our downloads come from App Store search. For a mobile app, ASO is not optional. Better keywords, screenshots, translations, and conversion rate can slowly compound into more visibility.

2. Always make it easy for users to give feedback
Some of our best product decisions came from users who reached out directly. A simple email, form, Reddit post, or feedback button can be enough.

3. Onboarding is probably the biggest revenue lever
If users don’t understand the value quickly, they leave. Small changes in onboarding, copy, screen order, and paywall timing can have a real impact.

4. Track everything that matters
You need to know where users come from, where they drop, what they use, what they ignore, and where they convert. Without analytics, you’re mostly guessing.

5. Translations can unlock unexpected markets
We translated the app into 8 languages and were surprised to see traction in places like Russia. Even when revenue is lower, more users means more feedback and more behavioral data.

6. US users monetize much better
For us, the US install-to-payment conversion rate is roughly 2x higher than the rest of the world. Other countries help us learn, but the US is where most of the revenue potential is.

7. Test a paywall during onboarding
Around 68% of our conversions happen before users even sign up. I know onboarding paywalls can be controversial, but for us it clearly matters.

8. Reviews are harder than they look
It took us several attempts to find a review prompt logic that actually worked. Timing matters a lot: not too early, not too late.

Main takeaway: the more data you have, the less you rely on your own assumptions. What you want as a founder doesn’t matter as much as what users actually do.

Our app is Paintly, a small app to learn art history through one artwork a day, in around 2 minutes.

Happy to answer questions or debate any of this in the comments.

So I started building this app earlier this year and shipped v1 a couple weeks back had to wait on Apple review longer than expected .

Then tried marketing it , mostly on Reddit and one small community WhatsApp group . Skipped instagram and youtube because the niche is tiny and ads would just burn cash on the wrong audience . Saw barely anything , 1-2 trials started ,both cancelled within a day . The audience was off .

So I stopped pushing it . But out of nowhere , a user who cancelled the trial earlier came back and subscribed . It feels like I have actually made something worth paying for .

Now I am confused on how to get more . I have started doing App store optimisation but what else can I do to actually boost downloads and revenue ??

The app is a community focus tool and has a hard paywall after onboarding .

I’m 32 and tracked my fiber for a week mostly out of curiosity.

I was getting like 12g a day.

The recommendation is 25–35g, which honestly explained a lot. I always had mid-afternoon crashes, bloating, and just random stomach stuff I never really thought about.

The tracking apps I tried didn’t really help either. MyFitnessPal tracks fiber, but it’s buried behind calories and macros. Cronometer felt way too detailed for what I wanted.

I basically just wanted an app that told me one thing:

Did I hit my fiber today or not?

So I built one.

It has a daily ring for your fiber goal, barcode scanner, 200+ USDA foods, and a plant diversity score. That last part was kind of surprising to me. A lot of gut health research points to variety per week, not just total grams.

A few honest surprises after using it for ~6 months:

• Getting to 30g isn’t that hard once you realize where fiber actually comes from. Beans, oats, raspberries, chia, avocado, etc.
• Plant diversity was harder for me than the actual fiber goal.
• A lot of packaged “high fiber” foods are not as useful as they make themselves sound.

Free, iOS only, on device, no account.

Would genuinely love feedback on the food database or anything that feels off.

I’m working on improving my App Store page and I keep seeing mixed opinions about screenshot text.

Some people say you should avoid putting too much text on screenshots because users don’t read it and it makes the page feel crowded. Others say screenshots need short captions because people may not understand the app from UI alone.

I’m trying to find the balance.

My app has visual features, so I want the screenshots to show the actual UI clearly, but I also want users to quickly understand the value. I’m thinking short benefit-focused captions instead of long explanations.

For example:

  - Turn trips into stories

  - Create AI travel visuals

  - Map every journey

  - Plan with destination AI

Do you think App Store screenshots perform better with almost no text, or with short captions? How much text is too much in your experience?

This started as a random idea I kept coming back to. I wanted something simple where you can save small things you might want to try someday. Foods, hobbies, places, or just random ideas that usually end up buried in Notes and forgotten.

I built it using Expo and React Native and tried to keep it as lightweight as possible. The goal was to avoid making it feel like a to do list. There is no pressure and no productivity angle, just a space to collect ideas.

I also recently added widgets, which has been one of my favorite additions. It makes the app feel more present without relying on notifications, which fits the low pressure vibe much better.

The biggest thing I have learned is that simple is actually really hard. Every extra tap or bit of friction becomes obvious very quickly. Onboarding also matters much more than I expected, even for a small app like this.

It is still early, but seeing around 600 people using something I built is a great feeling. It has made about 50$ so far, which is not huge, but it feels like real validation that the idea resonates with at least some people.

Any feedback is welcome, whether positive or critical.

 Hey, solo dev here.
I made a very simple landing page for my app NYC Intel and I’m not sure if it works or feels too bare.

Flow is basically:
user types an address
gets a quick “block score” + a few stats
then prompt to download the app
That’s it.
I’m intentionally keeping it minimal, but now I’m wondering:
is it clear enough?
does it feel useful or just gimmicky?
would you actually type an address here?
Would really appreciate blunt feedback 🙏

I used to have App Store conversion rates between 2% and 3.5% for my app.

Recently, I made one extremely simple change that pushed my CR to 5–7% almost immediately after the new screenshots went live.

The interesting part is that I had already tried adding text to screenshots before — but I used longer marketing-style sentences.

Then I started noticing that many successful apps shared on this subreddit used extremely large and very short text instead. So I decided to test it myself.

I redesigned my screenshots around a single idea:

Explain every feature in 1–2 huge words.

That was literally the only ASO-related change I made.

No keyword updates.

No metadata changes.

No external marketing.

No paid traffic.

Just screenshots with massive text that instantly communicates what the app does before the user even thinks.

The results honestly surprised me.

From the very next day the screenshots were approved, my CR jumped from ~2–3.5% to ~5–7%.

What’s even crazier is what a “small” 2–3% CR increase actually means in real numbers:

+30–50 additional downloads per day

~900–1500 extra users per month

…from a change that took maybe 5 minutes.

I also started noticing this behavior in myself while browsing the App Store:

The only screenshots that consistently make me stop scrolling are the ones with huge, instantly readable text.

My next step is localizing the screenshots, although that’ll be harder because many languages can’t explain features in only 2 words like English can.

Still, I’d honestly expect localized screenshots to push conversion even further — maybe into the 7–9% range.

Small changes can sometimes create surprisingly large results.

It’s an AI-powered keyboard that can:

• Automatically generate replies based on your context
• Let you create custom agents with your own instructions, so it actually understands your business or project
• Rewrite your messages instantly, so you never have to worry about spelling or phrasing again
• You don't have to switch apps to rewrite or ask an AI. You can use it in any app

Any feedback is much appreciated!

Have a nice day

I’m building a new parenting app called Earnie that turns screen time into real-life rewards for kids.
Instead of endless arguments over “one more episode,” parents set a weekly allowance budget and Earnie automatically adjusts how much kids can earn based on their screen time and completed tasks. Less mindless scrolling, more reading, chores, and offline play.

Kids see a simple balance and clear goals, while parents get:
• Automatic tracking of screen time and allowance
• Flexible rules (you choose which apps count, how strict to be, and minimum/maximum payouts)
• Approvals for cash or gift requests so you stay in control

We’re looking for honest feedback from parents and productivity nerds:
• Would tying allowance to screen time and habits actually help in your family?
• What controls or safeguards would you want before trusting an app like this?
• Any dealbreakers or “must-have” features we should add?

I launched a new football live scores app and got these early App Store numbers:

• 982 impressions
• 84 product page views
• 60 first-time downloads
• 9.47% conversion rate

No serious paid marketing yet.

Is this a good early signal for a new app? What would you improve first: ASO, screenshots, keywords, retention, or features?

Hi, visited Japan last year and the garbage system broke me. Every ward has different rules, different days, different bag colors — and zero tolerance if you get it wrong. I came back one morning to find my trash sitting there untouched 😅

So I built GomiSense (free to try):

• Point your camera at anything, AI tells you which bin it goes in — not just the category, but the actual rules for your specific ward
• Pulls your ward's real collection schedule and builds a personal calendar
• Morning notification before pickup so you don't miss the window
• 300+ recycling drop-off spots across Japan with directions
• Works in English, Turkish, Korean, Japanese, and Chinese

No Japanese required, no cross-referencing three different ward websites.

Happy to add features if anything's missing — and feedback is genuinely appreciated 🙏
