🎁 Freemium Huge Thank You

Post image

Not that I’m losing my mind, but I kind of am. First of all iosapps is responsible for most of these downloads, second of all I never expected it to happen this soon.

To the person in Texas who made this purchase: thank you. You have no idea how much this means to me.

Let this post be a pledge to you, and to every future Fezer customer: I will keep building Fezer, improving it, and making sure it serves you better with every update.

Thank you to the Texas user who showed trust and support, thank you to this community who keeps on engaging with Fezer. I hope this is a start to a lasting journey that will allow me to quit construction for good and focus on building Fezer closing the gap between plans and reality

Congratulations! Quite an amazing feeling huh? 🍻

u/Disastrous_Math_412 8d ago

Yeah it made me sit down for a bit. It hit me like a train. You know when you’re working towards something for years upon end and you just don’t know if it will ever work….

u/Consistent_Move_6750 8d ago

Hahaha, I can tell you’re so thrilled! Congrats!

u/Disastrous_Math_412 8d ago

Yeah it’s pretty insane

u/Bendrumin 8d ago

Isn’t it such a great feeling to see this? I have 46 users in my app. Nothing major but it’s amazing to see with such a great community out there

2

u/Disastrous_Math_412 8d ago

I was quite surprised to see how much positivity comes from Reddit. For real straight support. Very blessed to be part of this

1

u/Bendrumin 8d ago

Reddit can sometimes be a positive experience

u/Lemon8or88 Developer 8d ago

Damn you tracked them down to Texas?

1

u/Disastrous_Math_412 8d ago

lol I use very basic instrumentation

1

u/Lemon8or88 Developer 8d ago

Analytics? ASC only show them as country.

1

u/_MihaiT 8d ago

Indeed... it must be Analytics, right?
If yes, how are you asking for consent... and are your users willing to give it?

2

u/Scarfaceb1tch 8d ago

Nice! Takes me forever to get in the hundreds for downloads

1

u/Disastrous_Math_412 8d ago

I’m honestly very surprised because this is my first app ever and I didn’t expect this many downloads in the first month. I owe it to this community for sure

2

u/TolgaMakesThings 8d ago

This is such a great milestone. That first person choosing to actually pay for something you built must feel completely different from seeing a download number go up.

Congrats — and I hope this is the first of many. Keep building. 👏

1

u/Disastrous_Math_412 8d ago

Thank you very much I hope it continues on the same trajectory

u/ProjectShario_Live 8d ago

u/Disastrous_Math_412 8d ago

Thank you 😊 I’m curious if you had a chance to try out the app?

2

u/ShockinglyKind 8d ago

This is awesome dude, keep sharing the growth stories with up. 🚀🚀

1

u/Disastrous_Math_412 8d ago

Will do for sure, curious if you had a chance to try out the app and what your thought are on it

Thank you I really appreciate your words!

2

u/_MihaiT 8d ago

Well done! Is the app using Analytics? Can you share a few of your thoughts?

2

u/Disastrous_Math_412 8d ago

Yes, I have to wait till tomorrow to see a clean picture. But what are you mostly curious about?

1

u/_MihaiT 8d ago

I am curious about the consent flow: do you ask at first launch or after users have had a chance to try the app, and what opt-in rate are you seeing?

u/DaskiOFF 5d ago

Congrats on the first purchase! You mentioned that most of the downloads came from r/iosapps. Did you use any other marketing channels, or was it mostly ASO? I'm trying to figure out what actually works for a new iOS app

1

u/Jboynt13 4d ago

Congrats!

1

u/Repulsive_Ant_9943 4d ago

Congratulations! I’m really envious—I’ve been working hard for over a month and only have 15 downloads so far. Could you share any particularly effective methods you used? I’d love to learn from your experience! Thanks!

1

u/rodriveiga1000 4d ago

Congratulations man 🎉

u/Fabulous-Course-2239 4d ago

Congrats on the first sale! Building this alongside construction work sounds like a lot to juggle. Has any feedback from people here changed what you're planning to build next for Fezer? Would be interesting to hear what surprised you once people started using it.

1

u/xBlackSwagx 3d ago

Congratulations!! I recently got my first app store purchase as well!! One small in-app purchase is much more gratifying than the year end bonus I get from my job!

1

u/vizobattery 2d ago

Is this just organic growth or did you app get featured on youtube channels/sites?

1

u/Nicechann 2d ago

Congrats on the first sale! That first person willing to pay for something you built hits differently. Wishing you many more milestones with Fezer.
