we finished our app in 7 days it blocks your phone until you walk. But now, we are stuck.. WATING for the screen time apis to get approved by apple so In the mean time I decided to design some achievement badges for gamification and when i say desing, i mean we just sent a prompt to Rork app builder using gemini 3 and it generated them + added them to the project in 1 prompt. Meanwhile Mau Baron was setting up the MMP to start running ads hopefully we get approved later today Or tommorow And we can finally submit Step Lock And scale this to $30k/mo

We finished our 2nd app in 7 days of coding. Step Lock is an app that blocks your phone Until you walk. 1000 steps = 1 hour of screen time. Built using ( Claude 4.5 opus ) We are only waiting for apples to approve then screen time api Then we can launch What do you think of the idea?

This GenZ app prints $100K/mo and it’s literally just a glorified widget. The app syncs your lock screen with your “bestie or partner” That’s it.. This video alone got 9M views for an app called Ustwo They built the viral features right into the app. And now they can just spam this format to keep scaling. Keep this in mind when building your product. ( viral features )

Hot Take: The New Camera app on iOS 26 is GREAT i initially hated it when i first saw it on the keynote, but now that i've used it, I'm loving it It’s familiar while being really simple I've always felt that the Camera app on iOS has gotten really complex and convoluted in these last few years, and the new one fixes that, while still being as nuanced as the old app if you configure it the way you want it to behave takes some time to get used to, but this is great, it really does simplify the whole Ul but, this could've been the perfect time for Apple to introduce Manual controls as an Option in the Native app, even after all this redesign, Apple is still stubborn on not adding Manual Controls it's 2025 Apple,if you're gonna let users shoot LOG Video from the Native App, let us have Manual Controls as an option in the Native App, instead of downloading third party apps👏 i wonder how people shoot LOG Videos without Manual Controls💀

This is literally a $1M app idea...😭 This post has over 2 million views and 12k+ comments asking for the app its literally just an app that helps you replicate aesthetic pictures. Pain killer apps sell, but pain killer apps for women sell out and is so easy to market... → Start to hire 8-10 UGC creators → 60 videos/mo each → Use hooks like "If your husband takes your photos, you need this" Congrats you now make $1M/mo from the dumbest app idea ever

I built this app for myself in the first lockdown of 2020, because I spent way too much time on Instagram and online news. After using the prototype for two weeks, I noticed my screen time was down 44%…and decided to publish it on the AppStore!

What happens when you swipe right on Sorce? 1. Your application is added to our queue. 2. A browser picks it up and starts filling it out, usually within a few minutes ( you can watch it happen live on the app) 3. If the application asks something we can’t infer from your profile, our AI will ask you in the app. 4. Once it’s complete, you’ll see the form details and a replay of the browser session in the app.

Rork Max is one of the most inspiring things I’ve ever seen. I had an app idea at 15. I spent ~$40k on multiple dev teams, worked on it for over 2 years before we even got it to market, and in the end opportunity and monetary costs killed it. Rork Max rebuilt it in one prompt Rork will create the next generation of entrepreneurs for the sole reason that it democratizes the ability to create. Letting visionaries create in minutes not months or years. The future has never looked brighter for consumer app founders.

you're asking for app reviews WRONG Ernesto Lopez and i got 2,700 reviews in the last two weeks on 16,000 downloads that's a 17% review rate higher than 99.9% of apps here's the playbook: don't ask for reviews at the end don't use a random social proof screen to ask for it that's what everyone else does ASK for the review right after the AHA moment the emotional peak the moment the user thinks "this app actually works" examples: - right after a shocking insight - right after the user gets their first win - right after they FEEL the value in our case we ask for the review right after: - their first prayer - their first streak - around 10 minutes of time investment by then, we've already hit them with shockers like "you'll spend 16 years of your life scrolling... but you can't give God 5 minutes?" then the app becomes the solution the relief the reset by the time the review prompt shows up people are convinced they need the app
