I honestly dream of the day I get constant notifications from RevenueCat. I want them to become so incessant that they make me want to throw my phone across the room.

My app is starting to get organic AppStore impressions (was mainly warm from YouTube before) I now understand that my app on-boarding and screenshots are terrible as cold traffic is not converting at all 😢

Anyone else regret integrating RevenueCat? When I go 24 hours without a sale things get depressing. At least with purely AppStore connect there was hope.

after getting skunked June 2nd (0 new subscriptions) Yesterday I rebounded with 2 - 1 yearly , 1 monthly, also got my first couple of 4 star ratings ...lets keep the ball rolling

@Cuki98 Pretty huge oversimplification but yah can be elite if you can find half decent long tail keywords for low cpi

unpopular opinion: running Apple ads for your iOS app is peak lazymaxxing -> no TikTok algorithm to crack -> no IG reels roulette -> no influencer negotiations just show up when someone searches for your app and it prints

so hard to stay motivated after a goose egg day for new subscribers. wondering how all the indie devs out there do it without ads at this point, gotta keep my head down and keep grinding i guess.

@sebacaldarola The duality of man….0 dollar day for me :(

so today marks the day with the highest income ever since I started this is crazy man

@MDALISHANALI2 Same boat as you some days great some days zero. Demoralizing at times.

New month no sales This makes me more motivated to work r harder 🤧

@kedytcom How long did you though when you were. ?

@weightsnapapp For now i m not runing ads

Day 13 🌍📈 I stopped Apple Search Ads. But the app keeps growing. Today’s keyword gains: 🇦🇺 Australia +34 🇮🇸 Iceland +29 🇦🇺 Australia +25 🇺🇿 Uzbekistan +22 🇺🇸 US +18 🇫🇷 France +18 🇩🇪 Germany +14 🇩🇰 Denmark +9 🇸🇪 Sweden +7 The craziest part? Some of these countries weren’t even on my radar when I launched. Localization keeps proving me wrong. Most developers focus on the US only. Meanwhile, smaller markets are quietly driving growth 🌍 No viral launch. No featured placement. No huge budget. Just: • localization • ASO • onboarding improvements • consistency Small wins every day compound into big results 🚀

@santhil_X @soham_nayak04 Talk to me about this like scale ads?

@soham_nayak04 Honestly $1.5k is the magic number to safely quit a day job and go full-time indie hacker. $2k gives you serious breathing room to scale.

What MRR you need to sustain yourself? For me it’s $2k

@johnappscaler What’s your thoughts on TikTok carousels John. I get most my traffic from long form YouTube currently and haven’t tried TikTok yet

To those crying about not getting enough downloads / not having the $ for UGC: 1 phone. 8 accounts. 3 videos/day. Camera on. You talk about the app. That’s 240 posts in 10 days. 2400 in 100. Now you decide what you do with that info. You don’t even need money for this.

@OKuseAI Needed to see this was starting to feel like a failure

Twitter is a highlight reel of the 1%. Here's the reality for the 99% of us in the trenches: ​I made $336 in May 2026. ​⭐ BringBack - $250 📈 Flipaeo - $49 📷 Unrealshot - $37 ​This buys server time and exactly zero Lamborghinis. No fake hype. We keep shipping.

@sebacaldarola Nice ads?

and not even 48hs later… $200+ MRR achieved what’s the next goal?

update on road to 100 active paids: feel like my split is way to heavy towards monthly should i boost the monthly price ? right now yearly is at a 37% discount to monthly - should i increase monthly so the discount is closer to 60%?

Seems like everyone on here making massive mrr I’m just trying to grind my way to 1000 is paid ads the only way?

@zuess05 YouTube

Which platform is actually best for getting your first 100 users? • X • Reddit • Product Hunt • SEO

Do not go off of a glp if you used it to lose real fat (ie you were a fatass like myself) if you go off and attempt to go back on (in my case retatrutide) it is not nearly as effective.

at what point do you guys increase monthly pricing to get more annual subscribers? #roadto100paid
