I have many apps in Astro. It would be great if keyword updates happen for the currently selected app first. @matteo_spada Right now, I often wait several minutes for keyword updates and the app I care about is updated last. PS: https://t.co/Ui4iKZbiVQ if you want to try it

Google has made an awesome proposal, subject to court approval, to open up Android in the US Epic v Google case and settle our disputes. It genuinely doubles down on Android's original vision as an open platform to streamline competing store installs globally, reduce service fees
Exciting news! Together with Epic Games we have filed a proposed set of changes to Android and Google Play that focus on expanding developer choice and flexibility, lowering fees, and encouraging more competition all while keeping users safe. If approved, this would resolve our

We haven't confirmed this, and haven't taken any steps related to it on our end, but: The tweet below suggests iOS 26.2 Beta 1 allows installation of AltStore PAL and Epic Games Store in Japan.

So I released an app with a unique name (iOS & Android). There is no app like this with such a name (to my best knowledge). Results after 7-10 days from the release: Google Play, the app is #1 if I type the exact name App Store, the app is not even indexed 🤡

another update on my new couples app, trying to get to $5k/month by end of year last 24 hours my post BLEW up on here and brought in around 20,000 downloads… i’m very excited to keep working on this app :) but it’s really not even close to where i want it to be, super wild

A huge change is coming and Apple is bracing for impact. Why did Apple release their App Store as a website after 17 years? 1. They're getting ahead of the regulators. 2. They want way more people in the funnel. 3. They're rebuilding the tracking and ad system they broke

I’ll post a video on Sora, it will get 0-1 likes. I post the same video on TikTok, it will get 600+ likes. Now most of my videos don’t even leave Drafts. It is pointless to post them on Sora. I avoid the feed like the plague, endless Shaq videos. I wish I could block Shaq cameos.

I never relied on organic traffic in the App Store 1. It’s unpredictable and unstable For me, organic growth is a nice bonus, but never a real strategy. At any moment, a dishonest developer can boost installs and push you out of the charts — it’s happened to me more than once.

I got so irritated at Gemini I deleted all my chats. In digging through the settings, I found that it had "reference other chats" enabled by default as well as "custom instructions" that I never set. I wonder if that was why Gemini was misbehaving? Trying to keep track of too

@billpeeb Why am I paying $200 for a subscription, creating character cameo, and still getting a video with a watermark? What’s the point?

Anyone else having problems after updating their purchases_flutter package to >9.0.0? My lifetime purchases were never consumable and I still get reports from Android users that they can't restore their purchase on another device 🤔
