I have seen many ppl repost this and not sure why but it seems to be working so let's test it. I'm 30. solo founder from Canada 🇨🇦 If you're a builder, indie dev, parent, or just here to make interesting connections then let's connect

What's your monthly AI bill? Mine isn't cheap. 😂

I think the better question is what's your ai bill compared to revenue. Mine is -300

Well everything good doesn't last forever I guess. This was a big part of me staying with codex so now that is gone I might go back to Claude for a while

The rise of AI usage costs is inevitable. They spend 8 dollars on every dollar they earn. This can’t keep going on like this forever. I think we will expect a 5-10x raise of AI-prices within the next 2 years

Yeah sadly this won't be sustainable for much longer at this current pricing. Guess we should better make the best out of it while it's still cheap enough

Depends on the niche. I've done this thing for Sober Tracker; my revenue tanked. This experiment is one of the reasons my growth is less than in previous months. The second one was a price experiment with lifetimes.

The #1 mistake I see EVERY new app builder make is offering a free trial. Pure garbage. Enjoy the billing errors, immediate cancellations, and refund requests. Convinced anyone that has "success" with them could A/B test no-free trial and would see ARPU double or triple. MINIMUM.

Did you use to have free trial or are you testing this now ? I have found for my apps free trial really doesn't work

Maybe it's known issue but why does the codex app take so much ram? Mine is currently sitting at 36GB and more than half of that is swap because I only have 16GB Anyone has a fix for this or should I just ask codex to fix codex

I’ve barely been posting, but I’ve lost 20 followers in 2 days. I get unfollowing someone who’s constantly filling your timeline. But if I’m barely showing up, what reminds you to go unfollow me? I'm not upset I'm really just curious

Replying to @codebyjorge

If that's what's happening then I welcome that. No need more bots in my timeline or comments

Startup idea 💡 Real iPhones as a service for AI agents. Most services today offer iPhone simulators, but they have major limitations. For example, you can’t install apps from the App Store. Imagine giving an AI agent access to a real iPhone so it can use any app, just like a human. Essentially, an iPhone in the cloud that your agent can control

Good idea but a logistics nightmare

If you have an LLC, just sign up as an organization and you skip the testers completely Same $25 fee, and you go straight to production review. No begging 12 people to keep your app installed for 14 days

First time uploading app on Android, no reason not to have the extra Revenue also the 14 testers is a myth, you don't need that

Has anyone here submitted their app to be featured on the AppStore? How did it go?

Things seem so obvious once they are pointed out. Never thought of this. I want it.

Apple should REALLY add a sliding dock to iOS so we can fit more apps. How is this not a feature yet? 😭

This reminded me of the old days where you can jailbreak your iPhone and install Cydia packages

I'm not sure how accurate it is but if you want to grow followers you have to have the blue checkmark because the algorithm and monetization favour this sadly

Well this app was supposed to be ready by shipaton but I guess taking almost a month for an approval is the norm now. Should've known better

So much for the "90% of apps are reviewed in 48 hours."

I think this might be true for updates but not for first time apps
