⏳ Earn Your Screen Time — building ❌ Momentreel — failed 📈 Learning in public

Joined August 2026
Your phone shouldn't be free. I just launched Earnit: it locks the apps that eat your day until you earn the minutes back by walking, studying, or doing push-ups. Then you spend them in a deliberate 5, 10 or 15 min session. When it ends, the lock comes back. apps.apple.com/us/app/earn-s…

Been using Wow Keywords by @DanKulkov lately to improve the ASO for my first iOS app. After weeks of barely getting any App Store traffic, I'm finally starting to see impressions and product page views grow 📈 Still early, but it's honestly been a huge help. Feels like my ASO efforts are finally starting to pay off! Thanks for building this, Dan 🙌
i just solved ASO meet — WOW Keywords 🤖 > agent finds keywords > localizes them in 50 languages > analyzes where you app underperforms > optimizes your AppStore listing runs on your Claude Code / Codex subscription i am never finding keywords manually again 💀 link 👇

Unpopular opinion: your results with AI depend heavily on how smart you are.

I built a 3-rep push-up demo into onboarding. The camera counts each rep on your iPhone. It doesn't add minutes; it lets you try the idea before you finish setting up

First sale as an indie hacker! A stranger paid for something I built, and that changes what feels possible from here 🚀

I’m also redesigning my app icon and curious which direction feels stronger: A — Original: forest, night sky and moon B — New: minimal hourglass with a darker EarnIt palette Which one would make you more likely to stop and check out the app — A or B? And why?
i've been re-designing my app and curious which design looks better: left or right?

Gotta start somewhere 🫡
$90 today across three products. 🥳🥳🥳 $25.11 subscription renewal on BeatMotion. (Pro rata) $49.00 written tool review for @zinnhub on LaunchIt. $16.27 plan upgrade on Blipix. (From starter to pro) It's not complicated… Build something people want, then actually tell them it exists. Stop looking for the clever move. Ship and market.

For a long time now, I've been watching other people describe the feeling of earning their first dollar online—when a stranger pays for an app they created. Today, it happened to me. It really is exciting.

It's just a free trial, and it's just one person, but it feels so good!
