Always remember: you are not your customer.
A new user spent $30+ in Steps & Beasts - just 40 seconds after installing. 🤯
I’d never do that myself… but that’s exactly the point: you are not your customer.

Update 1.3.7 is live! 🚀
Steps & Beasts now has a 3D tilt effect — layered Beasts, animated particles (like leaves 🍃), and a parallax motion that reacts to your phone’s tilt.
Took some time, but… tada! ✨
What do you think?

I’m not a UI designer.
But as an indie dev you can still build beautiful UIs.
Look at what you like → rebuild it → tweak it → repeat.
Focus on consistency. Iterate.
Bit by bit you’ll get faster, better — and proud of your designs. 🙂

70% of my subs come right after onboarding.
Make users excited first (personal goals, motivation, personalization), then show a soft paywall - works especially well with a free trial.
Indie devs: Don’t forget to sell. 🙂

“I mean even God rested once a week.”
Got this as user feedback for Steps & Beasts — and it made me smile.
Listening to users is key. I’ve heard this request a few times now… so the next feature is set: Lazy Days. 🐾

You are not your customer.
I’d never pay for an app without trying it. But many users do — right after onboarding.
That’s why I show the paywall early in Steps & Beasts. And yes, people buy. Even the €30 lifetime.

Turned off cancellation & refund push notifications for my app.
Not ideal business-wise — but much better for my brain. 😅
I still check stats regularly, just on my terms. Dopamine is exhausting in both directions.
