In my mind step 1 is using the native APIs rather than React Native. You can do a lot with RN but in my experience, you will never reach the fluidity that you get so easily and freely from a native app.

Love the icon! This looks super useful. I always love to see a macOS app on Product Hunt! Congratulations on the launch @nuanced_ !

Post-launch update (Launch +3 days): After waiting a few days for all the data and charts to fully update, I wanted to give some extra stats on the launch: 👀 App Store Product Page Views: So far the Product Hunt launch has generated about 115 product page views (unique devices) on the App Store. 💾 Downloads: For those 115 views, there were around 70 downloads, a 60% conversion rate. Mattebox...

My approach was to only use dark mode 😆. But it’s a photo app, so there’s some logic to it

I think a tool about channel optimization could be interesting. A lot of small businesses feel overwhelmed with the number of channels people on the Internet tell them they "HAVE" to be using to maximize growth. Instagram, TikTok, X, Pinterest, YouTube, LinkedIn, their podcast, their own email list… An AI tool could look at their engagement across platforms, try to figure out which ones are...

Of course this is announced 2 days after my launch—fml 😅

I just launched on Saturday, and more than 20 people reached out via LinkedIn and email to sell upvotes. One seller offered 400 upvotes for $100, with guaranteed #1/Product of the Day placement. (The most sophisticated sellers offer performance guarantees.) When it's so cheap to guarantee #1, people WILL buy votes. Personally I did not buy any upvotes, but looking at the graphs of other...

Congrats on the launch @roopreddy ! It's impressive how much is packed into this product!

Midday update (1:30 PT): Sitting at #7 all day, and spending most of my time responding to people on LinkedIn who want to sell upvotes 😅... In case you're planning a launch and wondering what kind of impact ranking #7 on a Saturday might have, here's one small data point: mattebox.com has seen 750 visitors today, which is about a 10X over a normal day in the past week. I'll follow up tomorrow...

I love the concept, and the app has a very approachable look & feel. As social media becomes more and more about growing & monetizing an audience, I hope Mozi signals a trend, and we get more apps that focus on "real" connections.

Mercury is one of those rare products that makes you realize that literally every other product in the category is garbage. I know that sounds harsh, but think back to the iPhone introduction. It just made every stupid touchscreen phone and T9 flip phone look exactly as bad as they were. That's Mercury for banking. I use Mercury for two businesses, and I could write 1000 words about how much I...

Congrats on the launch, @rohithreddy! ResumeUp.AI looks impressive. Putting together a resume can be so intimidating—you want to put your best foot forward. I'm sure this will help a lot of people!

Oh man, I love the visual identity of the app and screenshots. Congrats on the launch!

Currently we're using Reply.io, and it works fine. You can also have it send LinkedIn connections/messages as part of a campaign. However I'm curious to see what other people are using. @natalia_toth, I'm going to check out Drip!

This is so cool, @vengat_klenty! I'm curious how the ICP/targeting works. What if you have a very specific profile? In my day job, I'm looking for CEOs/owners of businesses of a particular size within an industry vertical. Do you think SDRx could work for that, or is that getting too picky? 😅 Congrats on the launch!

Pace yourself 😅

You absolutely should! You have a great niche audience of early-stage indie hackers & founders. As a group, they don't have a ton of money to spend 😅 but they will make small, strategic investments as they try to get from "side-hustle" to real business. You probably have a better sense of what founders want from talking to them, but some random ideas: 🔧 A set of tools (Notion templates,...

For blog posts, it's sourcing images. I know that blog posts with several images do way better than text-only posts, but I don't always have great photos or illustrations to match the post.
