Magical number: 10,000 Searches!

It feels so good to celebrate a milestone such as this. People have actually used something I've built more than 10,000 times to (anonymously) search for something.

Milestones like these help give more confidence and motivation to continue building and expanding. I hope there are more like these to come.

    Keep rocking 💪Did you validate your app idea before you develop it, and if yes would you like to tell me how? Thank you in advance.

      Thank you! 🙂

      To be honest, no. I didn't put much into it. I started building it initially with the intention of solving a problem I faced. Almost everything I searched for led to ads on Facebook, Instagram, Google or anywhere else. It started to piss me off.

      When I had something I could use, I just hoped if I improved on it, it could be something everyone could use, so I continued building :)

        Great, solving a personal problem is one of the great ways to validate your idea. Now, just keep going, listen to your customers, and everything will be better by time. I wish you at least 10,000 DAU soon 🙂

    That's cool , what analytics tool do you use to track that?

      Thank you so much @a2svior!

      It's on Android, so nothing better than Firebase for this! :)
