@adriamatz Most people want it for free. Some may pay once, but I’m not sure users would keep using it consistently or pay regularly.

Creators are pulling 65M views a month with the surprise format For example this one did 10M "my dog just died. and this is how my mom decides to tell me" Watch the reveal:
English
100 paying subscribers, no doubt.
> $4.99/week × 100 users = $2,000+ MRR. Do the math.
> A paying user votes with money, they actually solved a real problem with your app.
> Paying users give real feedback because they have skin in the game.
> With 100 paying users you know your CAC, LTV and can scale through paid UA.
100 paying subscribers is a small business.

Would you rather have 10,000 free users or 100 paying subscribers?

@AK33Astrology @seraleev But do people even use PWA like they frequently use the mobile apps? How many MAU do you have?
English
@seraleev One of the reasons why I never bothered to create a mobile app, and instead launched a web app with PWA support-> unfoldastrology.com

New astrology apps > Apple guideline 4.3b: Spam.
Real case from 2025: Celeste AI.
They spent a year training a custom AI model for astrology readings. Passed TestFlight. Hit submit, got rejected. Appealed, rejected again. An Apple employee suggested they just “remove astrology from the app.”

The MRRs on astrology apps are obscene Half of these pull 6 figures a month 👇

Be like this guy, he made a one-feature funny Mac app just for entertainment, got 2 viral videos, and made $44k in 60 days. I’ve honestly never seen a case like this before 🥴
The new formula for a successful product in 2026:
Build an app -> go viral on TikTok & IG -> money printer 💸
Rob Hallam@robj3d3
Toni had $0, a laptop, and 60 days. He made $44K from a MacBook-slapping app. Here's the playbook:

Wanted to walk through what happened today.
I posted that a Superwall feature at $199/mo falls under Guideline 5.6. Developer Code of Conduct. Manipulation (a follower pointed this out in the comments).
Yesterday I watched Adam Lyttle video where he shared advice from Will. I read Will’s article, it’s public. I attached a screenshot from it as an example.
Today Will got a letter from Apple confirming that the Superwall feature at $199/mo may cause problems. I don’t know if he got it during an app update or not, but if you’re using this feature, it may cause problems.
I want to publicly apologize. @athcanft if you need help navigating this, I’m here. I had zero bad intent.
And now we all know Apple employees read my posts. Didn’t know that either.

Guideline 5.6. Developer Code of Conduct. Manipulation.

Let me guess:
OpenAI is waiting for the Codex app approval on the App Store and that’s why there’s no announcement yet.

Quite detailed and similar to my article. I’d add one more thing: check your IP on IPFighter before opening TikTok to avoid forgetting to turn on your VPN. Otherwise, you’ll be cooked. 🫡

I run 4 US TikTok accounts from Vietnam 🇻🇳 (and you can do it too) Same iPhone setup, same proxy stack, 3 niches. This is the exact setup I use 👇 (save this for later) (Proxy pro tip at the end.) - phones 📱 4× used iPhones, bought on FB Marketplace ✅ $35-70 each, cash, no iCloud lock ‼️ Factory reset every one. Never restore from backup ⛔️ Restored phone -> dead account! - apple ids 🪪 fresh Apple IDs, one per phone, no exceptions ✅ Made with new apple email addresses each time ⛔️ Never reuse, never sign into iCloud on a second device ⛔️ Never sign into the same Wi-Fi as your personal Apple ID - proxy setup 🌐 Residential(!!!), fixed US IP, 4 separate cities ✅ Boston, Dallas, Seattle, Miami: one city per phone ⛔️ Same IP across 2 phones = instant flag on both ❌ NordVPN, ExpressVPN are for netflix, not for work! ❌ datacenter proxies: no-go - iPhone config (in this exact order, before installing anything) 🇺🇸 Language → English (US) 🇺🇸 Region → United States 🕐 Date & Time → manual, set to proxy city(!!!) ⛔️ Location, Siri, Tracking, Screen Time, Analytics → all OFF ❌ Skip a single one and the device fingerprint leaks. - Install order ‼️ Proxy ON first. Always. → App Store → download TikTok → sign up with Apple ID ✅ FYP shows Trump / NFL / American ads within 5 min = you're in ⛔️ Still seeing local content? Stop. Don't post. Fix the network first. - Account warmup ✅ needs to be done right or zero views ❌ goes beyond this guide. 🤯 details on website (link below) What this post can't cover: - How to warm up your account for best reach (see guide for that) - The residential proxy service that still works reliably in 2026 (‼️ Can't name the proxies here. TikTok read these threads.) All details explained below 👇

@kevinpsalmon @alexcooldev I guess build an app, no one uses a web app regularly on their phones. People expect you to have an app.
English
> Vibe code one painful app with a single feature
> Create TikTok accounts targeting the US market
> Post slideshow content every day
> Scale the number of accounts to increase your chances of going viral
> This is the most cost-efficient way to maximize profit
> If you’re lazy, just use paid ads
$5k/month is easier than you think. 🥴
Logan Stakeley@loganstakeley
This is what a lot of organic views gets you if anyone was curious Side note📝: not really any serious/hard cta’s in vids/ slideshows
English
I thought having 40 TikTok accounts was already insane.
But this guy running 600 accounts with 69k posted videos. 🫠
At this point, organic growth is no longer about “posting content.”
It’s about building a distribution machine.
Virality depends on luck.
But volume increases luck.
i need more accounts 🥴

Suggested by @mikey_starts I’m sharing this. I think it is biggest the viral.app screenshot on X yet.

> accidentally click the wrong button
> start a free trial that turns into $17.85/month
> spend 5 minutes hunting the cancel button
> solve a puzzle to dodge the 30% “please stay” offer
> cancel
> refresh 3 times to make sure it’s actually cancelled
I hate these growth hacks to the bone

Indian Economy is now a race to the bottom.
1) To win election you need to give freebies
2) To give freebies you need to divert capital from long-term plans. And, tax people more.
3) No long-term planning= poor growth.
Poor growth = increases the need for freebies.
We are basically in a death loop.

@ArmyOfRobots Convex self host is a scam, not for production at all no matter how much resources you throw at it.

@cryptopunk7213 I always do this, make execution plan with opus and execute it with sonnet strictly based on the plan made by opus.
English
this is a banger, anthropic just gave everyone a tool that makes their cheapest model perform like the most expensive...
opus now advises claude haiku/sonnet. opus thinks. haiku/sonnet executes.
result: opus-level intelligence at 5X LOWER cost. i dug into the numbers and its fucking great:
- 12% reduction in cost per task. if you're an enterprise you can now save $10Ms
- haiku is now 85% CHEAPER than sonnet alone. again, insane savings.
- each opus "consultation" costs only 400-700 tokens vs. 1000s it did before.
- Haiku can now operate your computer twice as good for cheaper lol
now all those expensive tasks or apps you wanted to build can be done for dollars.
its also just 1 line of code.
what i love about this the most is this is how companies actually work. you don't need a genius to operate a tool, get the smart guy to think of the plan then pay for the cheapest executor.
Claude@claudeai
We're bringing the advisor strategy to the Claude Platform. Pair Opus as an advisor with Sonnet or Haiku as an executor, and get near Opus-level intelligence in your agents at a fraction of the cost.
