I can think of worse places I've done my payroll run from.
Absolutely loving this Mac Neo too!
It's been great for doing the odd check in when I've needed it while on holiday.

Absolute winner of a day.
I give it an hour before I have to go and seek shade because I can't handle the sun.
🚨 SetReps has to fully rebrand.
Got an email this morning from someone who owns the trademark SetRep in the fitness space.
Tried to pivot it and approach an acquisition of the trademark and assets, but they're not up for it.
Gutted, I really liked that name too! #buildinpublic
Yeah there's some apparent dark patterns when it comes to trial and paywalls. I feel like some people just want the first payment for the MRR boost and they dont car for the churn.
I want to build something longer term and want my users to stick around and help the app grow
Yeah, that's an interesting thing to think about there.
Ads = low quality
Paid = premium
With it being a fitness app I'd be tempted to extend the 7 days so people can have a really good go of it.
Yeah, I think that's the way I'm leaning towards. I'm seeing quite a bit when doing research about people getting really frustrated with paywalls, and I can't be bothered with annoying users at launch.
I just want people using my app so I can learn from how they interact too
As an app user (not as a developer, which most of us are)
Which process would you prefer?
- Free app, no time constraints on usage, basic ads around the app, pay a small fee to remove ads permanently
- Free app, 7-day trial, small fee to unlock the full app after the trial
Yeah this app isn't getting released until I'm happy using it myself.
Will be onoarding a few people in the next couple of weeks I think.
I’m super close to launching the free test flight version to people on our mailing list! If you fancy becoming an early user, sign up here launch.setreps.app
I’ll hopefully be in touch at the end of the month to sort your access.
So it appears that I pulled my chest during yesterday's workout. Thought I was having a heart attack for a second.
Realised I probably should have stretched for a while before working out.
Anyway... that's now a new feature in the @setreps.app 🤣

Well, this just changes everything for me in MyFitnessPal.
Top-tier feature this.
Your competitors' lowest-rated reviews are a goldmine of product insight.
App Issue Map just makes it fast to find the patterns. 🤯
Feature requests are open on the site, looking to actively work on this over the next month or so with improvements!
🔗 appissuemap.com
How it works:
➡️ Paste up to 10 competitor URLs
➡️ The tool collects their lowest rated reviews
➡️ AI clusters pain points + ranks by severity
➡️ Real user quotes as evidence
Apple and Android are in the same report.
No subscription. Pay once.
I got tired of manually reading competitors' lowest-rated app reviews.
I built a small tool that automates this for me. 🙌🏻
It collects low reviews from App Store & Google Play, then uses AI to find patterns and rank the pain points.
Only took a few hours to build.

Weighted Lunges are the worst leg exercise ever.
Absolutely hate that the @setreps.app decided to throw that into my leg workout today. 🤣
Could just delete that exercise 🤣
Head over to setreps.app (to see the live stats) and sign up if you’re looking for this sort of app.
I’ll be sharing early access at the end of Feb with anyone on the waitlist. It'll be a free app if you're on this list too!
Nearly 100k lifted so far by SetReps test users.
I'll get that over the line later. 💪🏻
Testing is going well, added new features and some performance tweaks.
My to-do list is much smaller now, it's nearly ready for launch!
Promoting launch to the end of Feb.
Thank you Montse!
Cheers Dave!
Thanks Jem!
Cheers Gaz!
Thanks Simon!
Completed level 43, on to level 44 now.
🎂
Head over to setreps.app and sign up if you’re looking for this sort of app.
I’ll be sharing early access very soon with people on the waitlist.
The @setreps.app is getting closer to launch!!
I've been using it for a month now and started noticing some design inconsistencies, so I've taken a screenshot of absolutely every screen in the app.
I can easily see what needs tweaking next from this! #buildinpublic
Bought a new camera to test out for some content creation. Will eventually use this for my app's videos, too.
How did I do? www.tiktok.com/@shanefromse...
I'm well outside of my comfort zone filming stuff like this.
My personal TT following my fitness schedule www.tiktok.com/@shanefromse...
The main @setreps.app account, which seems to be getting decent views. www.tiktok.com/@setreps.app
I'm a few days into creating content for TikTok and I now have a newfound respect for people that don't daily.
This is a real grind to get things edited and published.
If you're active over there see what you think of my first videos and give me a follow 😋
⬇️⬇️
Three iterations of the same screen in my fitness app.
1️⃣ Initial wireframe idea (top section planned for video).
2️⃣ Updates after real workout use exposed friction.
3️⃣ Refined after sharing and getting feedback.
Much happier now. It’s starting to feel like a real app!
