Gonna Rain?!

Quick #shipaton update: on Friday I integrated @onesignal for push at warp speed. The @RevenueCat contest made me discover it and Firebase is no longer my default. With Journeys I shipped segmented, property-based in-app messages & win-back offers in a day. 🤯 #buildinpublic

@meetshukla_ @JadDTweets I'll try it. Thanks for the link.

@JadDTweets I want to give you free credits to try ghostfeed.ai Some of our clients are generated over 500 videos every month and mass posting on tiktok checkout some of our results below. I think it could fit in your workflow, just try it once at my cost!

i'm 16 yrs old. I launched my app a few weeks ago. it is doing $1-5k per day. - don't know how to code - solo founder i'm winning because i'm not building another AI copycat wrapper this is your sign to build real, meaningful things that you are obsessed with. if you're technical, have an eye for design, and are interested in building the next Flighty, please DM me. (bonus points if you're in the aviation/travel space)

@synthwavedd Had the same with Sundance 4.5. ai slop trained on ai slop...

lmfao gpt image 2 just generated me an image with the gemini watermark in the bottom right completely unprompted

@MilksandMatcha Would be great to have a week longer than 5 hours 🫣

@vahebagdasar @drbarnard @RevenueCat Here's mine. The app is here apps.apple.com/us/app/rain-dr…

It's a Paywall Thursday! Put your paywalls in the comments to get roasted by me and @drbarnard this evening on @RevenueCat Live.

@bobek_balinek @jeiting @hiddevdploeg Hej, nie działa Ci link do Play Store z landing page.

@jeiting @hiddevdploeg Huge fan of RC, and a long time user here. My app’s called Filtru: apps.apple.com/gb/app/filtru-…

Are you an RC customer and want your app icon featured on our signup page? We're building an app icon wall ala WWDC 2009(?) and looking for volunteers. Reply with your app link and you hereby officially consent to me putting in on our website (this is legally official)

@WasimShips I can see nothing in all the charts. No data at all.

The easiest path to a viral indie app right now (that actually makes money): > Go to appstoretracker.com → Top Gainers (last 30 days) > Pick any app that jumped 10k+ downloads fast > Open its App Store page → scroll straight to 1-star and 2-star reviews (this is the goldmine) > Copy-paste the 20-30 worst/most repeated complaints into Claude (or ChatGPT) with prompt: "Summarize the core user problems, group by theme, quote exact pain phrases, ignore bugs, focus on missing features / bad UX" > You now have a crystal-clear list of what users hate most about the "winning" app > Build the 80% better version that fixes the top 2-3 complaints (usually simpler UI, one killer missing feature, faster flow, no forced sign-up) > Launch fast → market brutally on: - Reddit (r/SaaS, r/indiehackers, r/nocode, r/startups) with honest "I fixed what [app] sucks at" posts - TikTok/Insta Reels showing before/after pain vs your fix (15-sec format) - X threads breaking down the exact complaints you solved $800-1.5k MRR in 60-90 days → flip for $8k-15k on trustMRR or MicroAcquire

Hh

@seraleev ... and churn

For example, adding a «No payment required now» text above the purchase button increases conversions almost every time. We don’t fully know why – it just works. Great hack. I use it in my own apps.

@adamlyttleapps Maybe mine? 🫣 gonnarain.app

Want free advice on how to grow your app? Post your app below I'll be recording a video shortly where I review a few apps and provide some practical tips, advice and strategies for improving

@RevenueCat can you guys change the way promo codes use is reported? At the moment they appear in the dashboard and integrations e.g. webhook as regular purchases.

@SolomonAdekale @marcelkargul Maybe in rupias ? 🤣

@marcelkargul Is this a joke? $10,000?

Landing page design completed for a client for $10,000

@mcflyDev Same. I think the market shifted.

I can say it in public : I suck at marketing My latest app generated 800 euro in 28 days. While my boilerplate is generating 10x more I have no shame And so you should Stay strong 💪

@mcflyDev Wilk that restart ma organic view? idk.

@gonnarainapp Use ads manager

TikTok non sense Each time I put my face I get less than 200 views Slideshows get 700 to 1000 views Therefore IG slowly increases views Only happens on US accounts So weird 😅 I think it’s my content but… Not even 500 views is hard

@mcflyDev Just the mobile app.

@gonnarainapp Strange Did you do it through the paid ads manager or within the mobile app?

@RevenueCat Started to work. Thank you for prompt fix.

@RevenueCat Same thing. Cannot fetch lackages on both android and ios.

Follow status.revenuecat.com for updates, but TLDR: AWS is having issues, which has resulted in issues across their customerbase (inc RevenueCat) Mitigations are enabled, so purchases should largely process as normal

@MattCowlin Nice conversions. I have normal apps, no ai hype, and cant get over 3-4% :/ Your conversion would double my proceeds. 😅

💥APPS FOR SALE All of these apps are for sale at 10 * The number you see here (that is 2 Years revenue after apples cut) This is last 90 days 🚨 Pretty much all growing If you are interested in any DM me! 📮

@RevenueCat Congrats! Next year’s challenge: first paywall to hit $1M in the first hour wins. 🤣
