Time Out App - Transform phone addiction into fitness motivation
Unlock a revolutionary approach to managing phone usage with Time Out, the exercise-based app blocker for iPhone.

You can set customized exercise goals that must be met before regaining access to apps you've designated as time sinks. Time Out fundamentally changes your relationship with your phone, converting passive scrolling into active movement. No more mindlessly wasting hours; instead, each potential distraction becomes an opportunity to move and improve your health. You'll find yourself more motivated to engage in physical activity, knowing it directly impacts your ability to use your device. This app provides a unique solution for anyone struggling with digital distractions, offering a healthy and proactive way to regain control. It helps you build better habits, reduce screen addiction, and integrate more fitness into your daily routine, promoting both mental well-being and physical health.

For figuring out my churn or bounce rate, this has been invaluable! Really didn’t think people would take the time to fill out the quick google form, but they did!

New idea time ✨ As an iOS dev, to see my full user acquisition journey, I need to check App Store Connect + Firebase + RevenueCat. So I’m building FunnelKit where you can plug all of your existing tools together to see the full picture.

iOS devs: what do you use to track a funnel from App Store page view right the way through to onboarding steps and onto in app subscription purchase?

Right now I’m using GA for tracking onboarding steps, RevenueCat for purchases and then just eyeballing App Store analytics for page views. #iosdev

Is it just me or has iOS app review slowed down a bit? Nothing like the old days of multiple days, but still over 24 hours now?

Maybe I’ve just had a few bad runs

With basically no marketing, Time Out has crossed €100 in revenue!! Lots more features to come, and also stronger marketing efforts 💪 #indiedev #sideproject #iosdev #screentime

Am I wrong or can you not easily use the SF Symbols app with the new Icon Composer? Feels like SF Symbols should be embedded in the Icon Composer…

The FoundationModels framework being free to run is pretty sweet, but I guess that makes sense seeing as it’s in device. Wonder how good it is out of the box 🤔
