Just launched Beakly: a daily news briefing app for iOS 🚀
After months of building, Beakly is live. It's a reaction to news
apps that optimize for engagement — instead of an infinite feed, you
get one short daily briefing on the topics you choose.
Now the real challenge begins: distribution. If you've launched a
consumer iOS app, I'd love to hear what actually moved the needle on
your first 1,000 users.

I'd be careful treating this as a distribution problem too quickly.
The harder question may be whether the reason someone installs Beakly is the same reason they keep opening it a month later.
Those can look aligned early on while pulling the product in very different directions.
Thanks for feedback.
You're welcome.
One reason I raised it is that I've seen products reach a stage where the difficult part isn't collecting more signals.
It's deciding which signals deserve to shape the next set of decisions.
That's usually where things start getting interesting.
