It’s been a while Bluesky!
Building my own journaling app is forcing me writing journals everyday and reflect on my days
I didn’t know it was such a good habit to do for your mind

Which app should I install on my 3 months old MacBook Pro?
- changed keywords removing "text behind image" (again x3), and tweaking some others. removed also space after comma which enabled to add another keyword
Let's see how it goes, pretty sure there will be improvements
Yesterday I made some changes trying to improve ASO for Tebi - text behind image.
- Moved the name after the keywords so now is: "Text behind image - Tebi"
- Subtitle is now: Add stylish text to photo (prev: Easily place text behind image -> no need for text behind image again)
I’m starting to understand more and more that the sweet spot for a SaaS is building a great software along with solving a valuable problem.
When the two are combined, users will love it
Ps is there a beta available somewhere?
I thought about it during 2024. I think it’s a bit more difficult than other languages to find a good project to start from
I chose swift which is very similar in some aspects
What are you using it for? OS models are extremely powerful but couldn’t find a way to use them in my workflow
Me too! Tons of new followers and 0 engagement 😦
On Jan 1st Tebi reached $1k of revenue!
When I was building it I had one goal: cover the cost of Apple developer program ($100)
Just yesterday it made 10x that! 🚀
Ps To avoid the issue I should have extended the offer to 48h to cover all the edge cases (I’m not even sure this was the problem)
Being called scammer or not honorable is not nice. It’s the price to be in B2C, I guess. But people need to start respect the work of others.
A 1 star review is the worst you can do to an indie dev. Especially if it’s not related to the app itself but to an offer you weren’t able to get.
On Dec 20th I launched Tebi on AppAdvice. The results? Incredibly good and surprisingly bad.
Incredibly good:
- 8k downloads
- 80 reviews/ratings
- excellent reviews
Surprisingly bad:
- 1 star reviews. Why? Because the offer expired and they couldn’t get the app for free.
It’s done for me as well. Canceled last week.
There is no value whatsoever. It feels like talking to the void
In the last 3 days, I traveled to meet my family for the holidays and spent 2 days away from my MacBook.
Revenue in the last 3 days?
7$
Tebi still relies a lot on marketing and content I create (or not) every day
Eheh I knew it, it was just a matter of time 😜
Oh man I don’t know what you are doin but it’s fascinating
The first few days it made me dream some very weird and vivid stuff, now it’s doing its thing
What works (not always) for me is melatonin 1hr before sleep, drink an infusion while reading
It reduces stress and thoughts and improves the sleep. It’s not always effective but couldn’t find a better solution yet
Very interesting. I will dig into this, it might be useful for creduse.com
I love APIs too! I built an API SaaS , creduse.com, and it gave me so much satisfaction
Agree! The agentic thing works pretty well and also you don’t have to think about which files to include since it scans the directory
Building something new
Calling all designers attention 🚨
My app’s font are too basic and boring. I want to 10x them.
Shoot your favorite font 👇🏻
Ahah that’s a good idea. There’s a review section in the chat sidebar in Cursor. Check it out, it’s pretty good at identifying errors, improvements and so on
Pizza made last Saturday 😀
I’m falling in love with Swift
