I’m not taking anyone’s side and I’m not selling anything right now.
But from my experience, you only need to warm up for 5–10 minutes per day until the account is fully warmed up (only need 1-3 days), then just keep posting. If you get 0 views, stop posting for 2 days, keep scrolling normally, then post again. If it’s still 0 views, it’s usually a VPN/proxy issue.
As for devices, well… iPhone worked the best for me. I tested proxies on browsers and Android too, but only iPhone consistently worked. (Try it yourself.)
I started doing phone farms back in 2023 for my first project, an AI Character app, and it was getting 1k+ new users/day before Apple removed it from the App Store for NSFW violations. I was also one of the first people sharing about phone farms for mobile apps in 2024, back when basically nobody on X believed it was real 😌
STOP wasting money on human ugc react videos
you can do it with AI:
- at a fraction of the cost ($2 per vid vs $15 for humans)
- much faster (4-5 mins per vid vs 2-3 working days)
this is how i make 25-30 ugc react variations in 1 hour for tiktok ads 👇
Where should u aim when creating organic content for ur apps?
I feel like its easy to just look at views.
Came over a yt video of a guy explaining he had a much higher revenue from an yt account with 100k followers that was delivering very specific knowledge. Than on his main channel with five million subscriptions.
In other words;
Is my video with 133k views where I´ve just attached a "cta" to an already viral video,
worth less than 2500views just talking abt my app and its coolest functions?
Hard to know, cuz u cant really track organic conversions
What do u think?

I’m building just another alarm app.
And maan its hard.
So hard to know if one should pivot until u get market fit. Or brute-force ur way into success in a competitive niche.
The quiet weeks aren't a sign things are slowing down.
They're what building actually feels like from the inside.
The highlight reel you see from other founders?
They had quiet weeks too.They just didn't post them.
Every time I've said "I'll do user research after I ship this feature" the feature was wrong.
Every time. Not sometimes. Every time.
The feature you're most confident about is the one that most needs a sanity check.
The AI workflow I use more than any other:
Paste a decision I've already made ask for three reasons it might be wrong.
Not to reverse the decision.
To pressure-test it before it gets expensive.
quickly realizing who is and isn’t your ICP is everything
or you’ll waste months building for customers who were never going to be your champion users anyway
If you have $20 and not sure which AI subscription to get - Just get ChatGPT plus.
- GPT 5.5 > Opus 4.7 in everything
- Get access to Codex(One of the best)
- Use your ChatGPT sub in any other agent unlike Claude code sub.
- Insane limits. Maybe 4-5x than Claude pro sub
There’s no big moment where everything clicks.
It’s more like small things starting to feel easier.
You handle situations better.
You recover faster.
That’s how you know you’re actually growing.
The lifecycle of every side project:
Day 1: "This idea is gonna change everything."
Day 3: Set up the repo, pick the perfect stack.
Day 7: Tutorial hell. Rewriting the folder structure.
Day 14: "Let me just add auth first."
Day 21: Scope creep. Added 6 features no one asked for.
Day 30: Hasn't opened the repo in 10 days.
Day 60: "I'll finish it this weekend."
Day 90: Starts a new side project.
The graveyard of almost-shipped ideas
is bigger than any app store.
Ship the ugly version.
The perfect one never makes it out.
