i love being in nature. hiking, biking, running, swimming... and when im not in nature: shipping 🫶
i got invited to Founders Inc. Lab to build from there :D Ive been scaling my app to 100s of users past few weeks and finally got the invite. if any one wants to build cool stuff together, and love iOS development just comment below or hmu!!
shipped a hard paywall, got almost 60 free users now so i think it makes sense. apple approved. now time to distribute!!
submitted my app to apple that i built over a weekend. (theyve taken a week just to reject it btw)
day 4 of building in public till 1 million users. today i: fixed an annoying bug that kept signing out users. built a typewriter effect in chat. made a bunch more content. i cant believe i was sleeping on making content for this long... tiktok is literally a free resource to get users. time to craft my own style of content now and go all in.
today i made the app more agentic,
redesigned some ux elements,
made a bunch of content to market dolph AI.
stats:
76 users,
8500 followers on tiktok,
$0 mrr (purely focused on users for now)
day 2 of building in public to 1 million users
went all-in on reddit marketing today.
big lesson:
don’t drop links in posts.. it'll get auto deleted.
instead:
find people already asking for what you’re building
then DM them with value.
pull, don’t push.
day 1 of building in public till 1 million users
i will either make it
or die trying
