Indie devs, say hi πŸ‘‹

Vi is Fasting
6 replies
I'm Vi, a designer and app developer from Europe. A few years ago, one of my apps grew to 1 million users within 9 months with zero marketing investments. πŸš€ After that, I was thrilled to sell it, gaining some free time and cash after years of hard work πŸ’Έβœ¨ The joy and pleasure of life led to gaining 20 kilos in a very short period of time. πŸ°πŸ˜… I’ve been creating mobile apps for more than 10 years, developing over 10 apps as personal projects and many more for clients around the globe. As an app developer, I believe any problem can be solved with an app 🫣 So, I tested around 50-70 diet-related apps like calorie and fitness trackers, which introduced me to Intermittent Fasting. I found it a really natural and easy way to lose weight without much effort. I tried a few of them, and it worked - I lost 4 kg in two months with no effort πŸ“‰ But as a developer, I was annoyed with the pricing these apps ask for. They play with people’s beliefs and expectations so badly... 😀 I decided to build a no-bullsh*t, free fasting app with optional premium features (the free version is already cool and effective). So, here we are - www.wait-fasting.com πŸš€ Share a few words about yourself. What makes you get up from bed every day? What are you building at the moment? Let's connect! 🌟

Great initiative bro, doing projects that fits your needs makes you very passionate about it. My current project is also motivated to solve a problem of mine! I think this is a great way of brainstorming new ideas - what better problems to solve than yours own?

Hi Vi, I'm looking forward what you come up with for this weight losing app. I'm lucky to say I won't be needing anytime soon, but definitely you can help a lot of people! Wish you good luck! And interesting story about your first app, congratulations, pretty good life after it ;) If you'd like to know about mine, I'd love to hear from someone with your experience, what's your take on Wingtap? And feel free to get notified for when I launch as well, it will be this week! Hope you can support :) and use it, to make a different kind of impact than wait-fasting!

Hey, cool app, looks handy for IF! I'm currently building out my SaaS site, a developer platform for adding Passkeys to your app. Let me know if you'd be interested in trying it out - I see your app has a nice onboarding experience with Apple and Google - would you envisage it allowing users to log in using biometrics, via Passkeys? If so, feel free to sign up to the Beta :)
