Now we’re two podcasts with one community of builders. So whatever stage you’re at in your app journey, podcasts by @RevenueCat have you covered:

🎧 Listen to Launched: launchedfm.com
🎧 Listen to Sub Club: subclub.com

Each episode, Charlie talks with indie app developers and creators about what it *really* takes to ship something new — from late-night builds to first downloads.

🔍 Where to look:

- App Store & Play Store reviews
- Competitor reviews (see what they get wrong)
- Reddit, Discord, TikTok comments — all signal, no survey bias
- Customer support tickets
- Search queries

⚒️ Here's how to mine reviews for subscription app growth:

1️⃣ Separate reviews from ratings: filter sentiment vs. stars to identify feature gaps
2️⃣ Tag reviews by intent and opportunity
3️⃣ Borrow your users’ words for copy that builds trust
4️⃣ Use AI and LLM tools to scale analysis
