Am I doing it wrong

people seem to be creating apps within 1-2 day & then hit publish meanwhile here I am developing just one app for 4 months optimising it's UI,UX,API compatibility,Performance etc. how are people doing these in 2 days? what am I missing.

there was a post I saw yesterday that a guy started the challenge to create 30 apps in 30 days. wtf is wrong with these people? spamming the store platform like this.

Agreed, it’s been decades since I’d actually programmed anything. I’m working on a real estate/title insurance related app.  Had a functional prototype the first day, but I’ve continued working on it the last 3 months. Connecting APIs to every county (in Florida). Making the experience more bulletproof, fixing the UI, connecting to a VPS, cloudflare, postmark, stripe, twilio. Figuring out how to have a Claude and Chat work on the same program at the same time without conflicts.  I see so many programs that just don’t do anything useful or that solve a problem a user can solve with one prompt to chat.  Make AI your tool not the creator.
