Launch the smallest, easiest-to-make version of your idea as the MVP and keep adding to it and taking from it while you try and grow it into the best version of your idea. Every time you put out a new version the people already using it are able to provide feedback if you talk to them. You still have to find users but you don't have to find very many to start.
You can actually watch this process in action on Steam's Early Access, a platform for selling games during development. Mobile app stores also provide that feedback loop where your users are able to share their frustration or happiness each time you update and may even segregate feedback by version for you.
Don't confuse the smallest version of your app for a pre-registration launching-maybe page either, that's the smallest version of a dream about building a startup.
