I bet so many people will fall for this, thinking it will fix their marketing. I gave it a shot this morning, it's just a wrapper with AI prompts, which you could do on your own, so I'm a little confused about the actual value it gives tbh.
Today we're introducing the world's first AI CMO. Enter your website and it deploys a team of agents to help you get traffic and users. Try it now at okara.ai/cmo

I've also just realised I'm avoiding marketing my app and defaulted to let's do some more development 😭

Starting to think I should add Analytics to one of my new apps to try to understand its usage. What's everyone using these days, as I would like to avoid Firebase / Google Analytics

Burning through credits, but so far the information coming back is good, and it's actually found me a few savings 🎊 - of course, I will be running the spreadsheets via my accountant.

ChatGPT wins with the same prompt I got this -

Well, that prompt was a total failure 🤣

Whoa, that was a slow review time with Apple. Finally, after 5 days, my app went into review and was approved within 2 minutes.

In terms of SaaS products whats the best method for payment these days - I'm still assuming Stripe?

So it's finally clicked over the last week I've created two different products that solve an exact issue I'm facing which has finally led me to finishing something for a change.

Anyone else having issues with claude code? I've asked it in a new project to follow 400 lines of instructions and it's been thinking for 5 minutes now...

Decided to set myself a challenge with marketing which I tend to avoid like the plague to see if I can improve this over the next 30 days

Has anyone got any good links on how to use Claude Projects? Ideally, with use cases such as app marketing?

Finally made a new app to solve an issue I had with duplicate contacts - although there’s lots of apps out there I made my own with no tracking, cloud stuff or AI integrations 😎 apps.apple.com/gb/app/clean-…

iOS devs 👋 How are you handling App Store screenshots for multiple languages? I’ve got an app with: • Localised UI • Screenshots framed in an iPhone • Promo text outside the device Manually recreating these per language feels a complete pain in the backside 😅 Are you using: • Fastlane / Snapshot • Figma / Canva templates • Dedicated tools (Shotbot, AppScreens, etc.) • Or some cursed but effective workflow? Would love to hear what’s actually working in 2025 👇 #iOSDev #IndieDev #AppStore #ASO

Can anyone recommend a website to track iOS app store ranking / features that does not cost an arm and a leg?
