IH launching iOS apps in 2022?
Hi y’all. It’s that time again, I’m kicking the tires on a new idea to build a profitable side hustle business. Has anyone as of late been able to make it on the iOS App Store? Is the bar set too high for a bootstrapped indie maker to compete against large budget (VC) apps?
I made an iOS app back in 2015. I reckon it's a lot more work than building a website, and there are a lot more hoops to jump through. The biggest hurdle is getting the first build of your app onto the app store. After that is up, putting out updates is much easier.
I've been building a new iOS app over the last few months and hope to get it through review in the coming weeks. The process seems a bit more complicated than it was in 2015 (there are more rules and forms). Will let you know how it goes.
Ya good luck on the new app you're building. What sort of idea validation did you do on the new app? This is the part of the process I'm currently in .. do I just build it and trust my gut (knowing I don't have a large marketing budget and no marketing team) or do I look for feedback on the idea alone from people who I think might be future customers.
