Setting up my first ASA (Apple Search Ads) campaign - Does it make sense to bid for a keyword that you're already ranking #1 for? First thought is "obviously not" But bidding for those keywords can: - overpower competitor's ad - occupy entire screen = high % install not sure

All user feedback I have received on my app are from non-English paying users Coincidence? Maybe the non-English users part, but not the paying users part (I believe) Paying users are more invested in the product and can help improve it significantly! Also, localization >>>

Wtf @X ? Just going to flag accounts if they don't buy Premium after spamming discounts? I've never botted a single comment, post, like, never even scheduled. Meanwhile, thousands of bot comments out here with Premium badge. L Anti-bot system

TRIPLE DIGITS!!! no better feeling than this constant re-iterations and ASO are slowly compounding monitoring usage activity has been game-changing, speaks louder user feedback planning to make use the $100 Apple Ad credits and see where things go next goal: $500!
rookie numbers for most on here but this feels like a milestone already things are slowly but surely falling in place and I'm here to constantly try -> test -> learn -> repeat next goal: triple digits!

Rewrote the title, subtitle and keywords + localizations with some more ASO research and learnings 馃搱 Appfigures blog pages on ASO tips are underrated!

Received some more solid feature suggestions and bug fixes from my German user (I don't speak German myself) Would never have received them had I not localized my app Localize your app 馃
Today, I received a feedback from a user requesting for features that already existed. Realized it may be difficult for new users to find features that are hidden behind a click & should be easier to find on the main screen Shipped the fix which I'm personally much happier with

What you see: indie dev hitting $100K/month. What I see: hundreds of experiments, burned budgets, a banned account and starting over more times than I can count.
