I've been using Flurry for the past year and thinking of switching. I don't like the way Flurry presents data on their platform and the website is really slow.


We're using Flurry and I find their site really slow too and the graphs are a bit ordinary. Would much rather get live info.


I launched my first app in March 2013 and it's basically paying off my school tuition. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/spinme-alarm-clock-guarantee...


This is clever! Bought -- and good luck with school!


Thank you! :)


How you make money? Ads in app?


If you haven't made an account yet I could refer you to airbnb and you'll get a $25 credit. http://airbnb.ca/c/aalshurafa


Thanks for the referral. The $25 credit only applies (to me or you) when I book something with over a $75 base rate. So you won't get it today but next time I go on vacation for longer you will get it.


Nope.


Still waiting too.


ditto.

It might be nice if someone who did get one could confirm that they have indeed been sent...?


Nothing so far. I think the moment they're sent there will be an item on the front page.


Last year I made my first iOS app as a fun side project that solved a problem I had - waking up on time. http://spinmealarm.com

I spent most of my reading week making the app, and then another 2-3 weeks polishing it. A few months later I decided to post it on Hacker News as a "Show HN". It only got a few upvotes but a TechCrunch journalist somehow saw it and decided to write a post on it. It's done pretty well in the App Store, reaching #1 in its category at one point. Nowadays it hovers in the Top 100 Utilities category.


Working on updating my current alarm clock app http://www.spinmealarm.com to have a social aspect that will gamify your wake up experience.


Do you ever plan to bring this to Android? In this day and age, it'd be a shame if you didn't.


You know when you learn a new word, and then you suddenly start seeing it everywhere? You've probably been seeing the word your entire life but you haven't noticed it because you didn't know what it meant. This is pretty similar.


Isn't this basically like the Magic Cube laser keyboard? http://www.celluon.com/products.php


I'd be interested in a free account too!


Sure thing, shoot me an e-mail at support@freshpost.io and I'll get you one
