@musiciansj Thank you so much! 🙏 I had no idea there was so much to do besides coding… 😅 We’ll keep going! 🦷

@ToothLog_app Love the transparency! First app is always the hardest. You're closer than you think — screenshots are just the final touch. Keep shipping! 🚀

Icon: done ✅ Description: done ✅ Screenshots: not yet 😅 Keywords: still thinking 🤔 Almost there? Or still far? First app. We have no idea. 😂 — O (worries & tests everything) #buildinpublic

@Altawesomeee Ha, glad it's not just me! 😅 Thank you so much for offering — honestly means a lot. I had no idea app development was this hard until I actually started 😅 I'll figure it out step by step!

@ToothLog_app The RevenueCat + App Store Connect loop is a rite of passage honestly. What's blocking you right now? Is it entitlements, sandbox testing, or something else? Happy to help troubleshoot.

Going back and forth between RevenueCat and App Store Connect 😭 The app is almost done… but somehow I still can’t reach the launch stage!! — O (worries & tests everything) #buildinpublic

Still fighting with RevenueCat 😭 Why does this take so long!? I really thought we were almost done by now… I was very wrong 😂 — O (worries & tests everything) #buildinpublic

Mr. Denture is coming. 🦷 Building an app for denture wearers. Offline. Private. No ads. July 2026. #indiedev #buildinpublic #dentures

Made a lot of progress today! Dawn is almost here… kids will wake me up in 4 hours… 😂 #buildinpublic

Just commented on a 104.8M follower denture advocate's LIVE 🦷 She's been doing this for years. I've been doing this for 20+ years as a tech. Building in public. The community finds you. 🦷 Coming July. #buildinpublic #dentures

Day 43 of iOS app development. Integrated RevenueCat SDK and connected the payment system 😭 Started with zero experience. Now somehow… the app can handle subscriptions. Launch is starting to feel real 🚀 — O (worries & tests everything) #buildinpublic

My wife is building the app. I'm building the audience. 🦷 Dental tech. 20+ years. She codes. I post. Coming July 2026. #indiedev #buildinpublic #dentures

@Altawesomeee So true 😭 I thought today’s fix would take an hour… ended up being two. Now I can’t decide whether to keep going or just sleep 😅

@ToothLog_app This is every late night session ever. You go in for a 'quick fix' and surface 45 minutes later with three new problems. Hoping it looks better in the morning.

Tried to fix one small bug… somehow made everything worse 😭 I’m going to sleep now. — O (worries & tests everything) #buildinpublic

@pavelhegler This one's for the wearers, not the dentists. 🦷

@ToothLog_app charge dentists now.

Building an app for denture wearers. 🦷 Offline. Private. No ads. No free tier. Just a tool that works. Made by a dental tech with 20+ years. Coming July 2026. #indiedev #buildinpublic #dentures

@anhphong_dev That's gold. Lead with the pain, not the product. Waiting for someone to reply "is there an app for this" 🦷

one more if useful for when you do start posting: lead with the workflow pain in the title, not the app. "stop re-typing the same chart codes" gets dentists nodding before they know there's a tool. signal you're ready to pitch is when someone replies asking "is there an app for this"

Marketing is hard. What are you all doing to get the word out? — T #indiedev #buildinpublic #solofounder #appmarketing

@QuietFSoftware Thank you! I’ll try again tomorrow 😅

@ToothLog_app Those days are rough. Get some rest and hit it again tomorrow!

Nobody told me making an app would also mean learning cricket. 🏏🦷 ーT #ToothLog #indiedev

@anhphong_dev Great advice. Slow play it is. 🦷

right call on the slow play. dental subs are exactly the kind where mods + regulars notice newcomers. what's worked for friends in narrow professional subs: spend 2-3 weeks just answering questions in the niche - charting workflows, insurance billing pain, software comparisons. once they see your name with no app attached, the eventual "i built this" lands as someone-from-the-community shipped a thing, not someone-came-here-to-sell.

Day 3. 1 follower. She looks exactly like someone who needs this app. Building for denture wearers. 20+ years on the floor. #buildinpublic #indiedev

@getordiaapp Thank you! Currently targeting English-speaking markets first, but Japan is on the radar for future expansion. Stay tuned!

@ToothLog_app Congrats on the release! 🎉 I'm currently undergoing dental treatment myself, and once that's finished I'm planning to start orthodontic treatment. Will the app also be released in Japan?

Finally got the app registered on App Store Connect and finished setting up the subscriptions! It took way longer than expected… but we’re getting closer to launch step by step! So excited! 🎉 — O (worries & tests everything) #buildinpublic
