https://www.sprinterval.com/ https://www.sprinterval.com/ It's like Couch-2-5k for sprint intervals. I think that not a lot of people are into sprint intervals, or understand why they should be. Got around 70 users of the app per day on ios&android combined, but just couldn't get it to get any more traction. Pretty much mothballed now, removed from app stores.

Fitness apps are brutal. I have my failed fitness side project [0]. I thought a killer feature would be to have the popular 7-minute workout free with nice images, and customizable intervals. I even paid for some adwords and facebook but the market it brutal. The funny thing is alternatives were at the time (IMO) not better. They were corny, had ads or crazy permissions. I also made a free calculator as I was frustrated no ad-free calculator existed for ipad (at least one first few search pages). That was a dud too. Sometimes having a good product is not enough [0] https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.twelve31labs.lujafitness&hl=en_US https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.twelve31la...

  Thanks for making OpenCalc. I can’t explain why Apple doesn’t add a calc app to iPad OS. And the amount of shitty, ad-infested alternatives borders on horrifying.

  Apps look great. Where it fails is the thumbnail. It has the correct feel but something about it prevents me from considering clicking it. What did you use to make the logos?
