Deepr v1.0.26 is now available. - You can now use the share sheet to save links silently. - Creating profiles is easier too. - You can do it directly from the link edit screen. - For pro users, I added per-profile themes. - You can turn off clipboard link detection if it bothers you.
Organic users in Shelfy add 14 products on average. The base is small but the utility is high. People use tools that solve real problems. 10 users & 140 items is better than 100 users & 0 items. It shows the app works for those who find it. Focusing on value first.
