We finally released our beta version of Habyte on Google Play 🍾
Problems we have faced:
- It was our first ReactNative App, and we started with two architectural mistakes very at the beginning
- To fix these issues, we almost started from scratch after the first internal dev release in June
- Automate Habits by using some data on the phone sounds easy, but it ended up in a very complex creation flow 🤯
- We redesigned the habit flow 3 times before we were satisfied and were able to cover near to every habit use case
Some lessons we have learned:
- It took more than one year from the idea to the first release. This is too long and next time we will start with a smaller scope and less perfectionism 📅
- We failed in getting early customer and need to improve our marketing
Besides the issues, we have faced and the problems we have in front of us, it is time to celebrate the first release that is publicly available🎉
