Thanks for the kind words. I'm glad that you like the onboarding.

I get your point about the subscription screen. It's something that I've been experimenting for a while. I found many users activate the subscription during the onboarding, that's why I keep it.

I've been working on this app for almost 5 years at this point. Also, congrats for the app. Feel free to share the link, I'd love to check it out.

I think this is the toughest part for me as a technically inclines person - selling. It's something I want to become more comfortable with.

Well done persisting. That is a lot of hard work! Any tips on keeping up motivation? I've been working on my app for only a few months now and had to dig deep a few times to keep going.

Thanks, I'm still working on making it a bit more marketable, but here it is: https://dingdongdoorbell.com/

A friend of mine is working on a an app to help devs sell stuff - he might benefit from your feedback - https://gitwallet.co/
Looks really nice. I've worked on lots of open source code for > 10 years now. But I've never done a project where the product itself was monetized directly. Would still be happy to give him specific feedback if he wants - my contact is indirectly in my profile :)
