After adding a subscription model, Adobe's revenue has skyrocketed. A great motivation to stick to subscriptions when building something new🙂

Discovered a new black hat marketing hack🥷 Save to your bookmarks 😁 1) Create tons of Reddit accounts. 2) Increase the "trust" of those accounts by following/commenting for a few months. 3) Publish a post like "What is the best app for ..." 4) Use those accounts to mention

Tell me another business niche where you can spend two days to create a passive cash flow that keeps working for years. The revenue in this pic is from an app I created in one weekend a while ago. I haven't changed it since then, but it still generates some cash. This study

Uploading 5.5-inch screenshots is no longer required when publishing iPhone apps. One less headache, thanks to Apple. Sometimes they deliver more than just bugs in App Store Connect
