Hey Tamil, I’m building apps under RelayByte alongside my day job, and I’m still figuring out the traction side myself. One thing I’d check before launching is whether people understand the app without you explaining it. With Trayage, someone asked whether it summarised downloads, when it actually helps you decide what to keep, move, or delete. That showed me there could be a gap in how I’m describing it. For Kiiwi, I’d lead with a short sound-on demo. Let people hear a few switches and see how easily they can change them. Then have a few Mac users try the whole process, from your website through installation to hearing their first keyboard sound. Watch where they get stuck. After launch, I’d ask what made them keep it enabled or turn it off. That would give you something concrete to improve beyond launch-day likes. My biggest suggestion: make the core experience easy to understand and try before feeling pressured to add more features. Getting an app shipped is one part; I’m learning that helping people see why they’d use it takes just as much attention.
