Congrats! I am always super excited/impressed by people who can take something all the way like this, just because I know how monumentally hard finishing any project is.
I'm at least decently familiar with the first half of "end-to-end" but don't have a lot of experience in the back half.
Was there something cool/unintuitive you learned while having to figure out how to market and support your weightlifting app that you'd be willing to share?
- strongpigeon 4y agoEverybody says it, but the marketing part of it matters a lot. As a shape rotator, I struggle with putting myself out there and really have to force myself to "just do it". The app store is a big, noisy marketplace, so having other channels to get people to try your app and give you ratings is crucial. That really help me get through the initial wall and now my app is showing up pretty high in the search result.

- strongpigeon 4y agoiOS has this control to prompt users to rate your app. I made it so that the prompt appears after the user has completed a workout, at which point they are probably happy with the app (and aren't getting jarringly interrupted).
