Ask Yourself Everyday

Airport is a new service designed to be “an App Store for TestFlight apps”. Launching there turned out to be an absolutely tremendous idea. I’ve got ~50 more testers less than in a day. Plus, it gives you access to their Slack community where you can mingle with fellow indie developers. Anyway, the beta is going well, people are using the app & seem to be liking it, and all it seems like I’ll be launching on App Store soon: just finished Onboarding today which was the biggest missing piece, how it’s just subscription infrastructure & polish

Oh my this was so scary. I really wanted people to start trying out the app to see if the idea works, and what I came up with is just sharing my progress on my Instagram stories. I'm sure most of the people there don't really care, but some do, and some really do. And that's awesome! I was able to get about 20 beta testers just by sharing the app with people I already know. Feels great!

I think for the first time in my life I tried using Sketch before jumping straight to code. Surprisingly, I liked what I came up with, and it didn't take long to settle on haw the app will look and to start working in the technical side. It's quite bare bones for now, but I need to test the idea first before I commit to launching the app.
