Ran a small paywall experiment on one of my apps. Original setup: Monthly as the default, Lifetime visible, Yearly hidden behind "Other Plans." Swapped it. Yearly is now the default, Monthly visible, Lifetime behind the toggle. Users just stick with the default. Higher LTV. #indiedev

Guess what day it is? Appstead knows 🔥 Join the waiting list appstead.app #iOSDev #IndieDev #AppStoreConnect #BuildInPublic

the first thing I check every morning is how my apps are doing. appstead makes that feel good. appstead.app #iOSDev #IndieDev #AppStoreConnect #BuildInPublic

I built CreatorCaps because editing captions in a full video editor felt ridiculous for a 30-second clip. Everything runs on-device, no cloud uploads, and it's a one-time purchase. If you make short-form content, give it a try. apple.co/4sT5vRu #indiedev #iosdev #creatortools

You know your git history is cooked when you grab a pen and paper. fix/issue-44, testflight branches, rebasing onto codex, landing on main after QA. I had to sketch this out before touching anything. #indiedev

The closer Appstead gets to launch, the less it feels like building. Most of my days now are edge cases, polish, and making sure nothing breaks when real data hits. Honestly kind of satisfying though. This is where the app earns its trust. appstead.app #indiedev

Living with diabetes is built on small, consistent habits. That's why I created the 30-Day Glucose Check-In challenge in Glu Sight. The challenge begins August 1. #diabetes #BloodSugar #IndieDev

I never get tired of seeing where downloads come from. It's one of the easiest ways to spot where better localization could have the biggest impact. #appstoreconnect #indiedev #iosdev #buildinpublic

For the first time I'm not scrambling to finish screenshots, the website, onboarding or marketing a week or so before launch. That feels... different. #indiedev #iosdev #buildinpublic

The best tools I've built have all had one thing in common. I wasn't chasing a market. I was trying to get rid of a workflow that annoyed me every single day. That's how Appstead started. appstead.app #indiedev #buildinpublic #iosdev

The best tools I've built have all had one thing in common. I wasn't chasing a market. I was trying to get rid of a workflow that annoyed me every single day. That's how Appstead started. appstead.app #indiedev #buildinpublic #iosdev

I've realized every app I've built started because I genuinely wanted the problem solved. None of them started with "What's the biggest market?" Maybe it's not the fastest path, but every feature comes from real experience. #BuildInPublic #IndieDev

I took a much needed reset yesterday. Full time off. Back into it today. Talking about which, CreatorCaps is having a huge UI/UX overhaul as well as key feature improvements on captions editing for silent videos. And I couldn’t be more excited for what’s next. #Captioning #IndieDev #iOS #App

One of my goals with Appstead is to ask for the least privilege possible. Staying informed about your portfolio shouldn't require elevated App Store Connect permissions. #AppStore #IndieDev #BuildInPublic #AppStoreConnect

I wanted App Store reviews to feel less like something you occasionally check… …and more like something that’s part of your daily workflow. That’s why they have a dedicated home in Appstead. #AppReviews #IndieDev #BuildInPublic #AppStoreConnect

😂 One minute review? I can get used to this life. Anyways, CreatorCaps 1.6.9 is out! And this version brings you improvements for Japanese 🇯🇵 and Chinese 🇨🇳 localizations as well as bug fixes and UI/UX improvements. Go forth and download the latest: apple.co/4sT5vRu

I don't think busy developers should have to discover this by accident. If Apple is blocking you on a required App Store Connect agreement, Appstead lets you know. 🫡 #iOSDev #IndieDev #BuildInPublic #AppStoreConnect

I spend a lot of time localizing my own apps. It only felt right to give Appstead the same treatment: 🇺🇸 🇫🇷 🇩🇪 🇪🇸 🇵🇹 🇧🇷 🇯🇵 🇨🇳 If you're building apps globally, your tools should feel global too. #iOSDev #IndieDev #Localization #BuildInPublic

I wanted Appstead to answer two questions: “How is my business doing?” Then… “Okay… but why?” That’s why I gave every app its own details page. #iOSDev #IndieDev #BuildInPublic #AppStoreConnect

This never gets old. I love instant conversions as much as anyone. But seeing someone use an app I made for a while before deciding it's worth paying for... That feeling is hard to beat.

One of the biggest design decisions behind Appstead had nothing to do with the UI. I didn't want your credentials or business data living on infrastructure I control. NONE. No backend. No accounts. No copies of your reports. That's the promise. #IndieDev #iOSDev #AppStoreConnect #BuildInPublic

One of my favorite moments as an indie developer: A feature you’ve only ever tested in debug mode finally reaches the point where real time takes over. And it works exactly as you hoped. That feeling never gets old. #BuildInPublic #IndieDev #iOSDev #AppStoreConnect

There are enough things to remember when you’re shipping apps. Payday shouldn’t be one of them. It’s a small feature, but it’s one I wanted Appstead to have from day one. #iOSDev #IndieDev #BuildInPublic #AppStoreConnect

New Home Screen widget: Downloads by country. See where your downloads are coming from at a glance. I’m working on Appstead for iPhone and iPad. App Store Connect on your terms. #iOSDev #IndieDev #BuildInPublic #AppStoreConnect #SwiftUI

Sometimes you don’t want to open App Store Connect 🫤. You just want to glance at your Home Screen and know how your portfolio is doing. Reducing friction is one of the reasons I’m building Appstead. Clean widgets felt like a great place to start. #iOSDev #IndieDev #AppStoreConnect #BuildInPublic

I made clipping feel a lot less hidden in the next CreatorCaps update. Clips Tray is coming to iPhone next week. Pull it in from the edge while you’re still in Clip Mode, preview what you’ve saved, then tap one to open the export sheet. Also: The app is now fully localized in German 🇩🇪☺️ #IndieDev

The next version of CreatorCaps lets you start captioning straight from Photos. No need to open the app first: Select a video → Share → CreatorCaps. A little less friction between recording & captioning. Available on iPhone and iPad as a one-time purchase: apple.co/4sT5vRu #IndieDev #iOS #Edits

If you prefer a bigger screen than your phone to keep an eye on your app portfolio, I've got you covered. Built for iPhone and iPad from day one. #IndieDev #iOSDev #BuildInPublic #appstoreconnect
