Day 61 of #Shipaton2026
v1.3.6 approved — last update during the hackathon.
Since August: early mornings, late nights, weekends. More features, more skins, first time on TikTok and YouTube.
My first hackathon, genuinely fun. MyFes keeps going.
#BuildInPublic #Shipaton

Day 60 of #Shipaton2026
v1.3.5 approved and live, way faster than expected — anonymous analytics so I can see where people get stuck.
v1.3.6 submitted right after, fixing a display bug on Hype posters.

Day 59 of #Shipaton2026
Worked through the weekend, Devpost final check nearly done. Downloads are creeping up too.
Submitted 1.3.5 today: anonymous in-app analytics, to see where people stop. My data used to end at the landing page. Fingers crossed for approval by Sep 30.

Day 58 of #Shipaton2026
The last update got through Apple review before the deadline. Finalized the Devpost growth section and submitted the Shipaton Showcase form.
The hackathon gave me a deadline, not a finish line.
#BuildInPublic #Shipaton

Started as just a poster maker. Then Hype (react to others' festivals, say what you'd pay), a few photo skins, and now artist names link straight to Spotify.
Deadline is Sep 30 (RevenueCat's Shipaton 2026). More after that.
#Shipaton #Shipaton2026

My first shipped app, seven updates during a hackathon, and one update that made it through Apple review right before the deadline — was genuinely worried it wouldn't make it in time.

New feature: tap any artist's name on your lineup, go straight to their Spotify page. Live on web now, iOS pending Apple's review.
Updated the Devpost submission with the latest numbers. Downloads are up 30% over two weeks. Small, but steadily climbing.

Day 55 of #Shipaton2026
Working on a new feature: linking artist names to Spotify pages.
Spotify's API now needs Premium app-wide. Subscribed today, still waiting on it. In parallel, tested MusicBrainz as a free alternative — 94% accuracy verified.

What a near-identical app taught one indie dev about building in public, reserving your name early, and choosing a fix over a fight. #shipaton2026

Day 47 of #Shipaton2026
A little over a month since I shipped on Aug 14. Since then: new features, submitted to Devpost early, opened TikTok/YouTube accounts, wrote about it.
Shipping isn't the finish line — getting people to know and use it takes work in every direction.
#BuildInPublic #Shipaton

Day 47 of #Shipaton2026
Approved for Apple's Small Business Program — commission dropped 30% to 15%.
Two more photo skins went live today. Offer codes for all 7 are done.
Submitted a 9th skin, DUOTONE — a new two-tone process, different from anything shipped so far.
#BuildInPublic #Shipaton

Day 45 of #Shipaton2026
Two YouTube Shorts went live tonight, as scheduled. Split into "Create" and "Hype" — each shows what MyFes does in under 20 seconds, text-heavy, same format as the TikTok videos.
#BuildInPublic #Shipaton

Day 45 of #Shipaton2026
Weekend work: submitted the next two photo skins for review. LIGHTHOUSE had a purchase bug on TestFlight that cost a day, but it's fixed and in.
Offer codes for every skin are in progress.
#BuildInPublic #Shipaton

Update: the ocean skin just went live.

Day 42 of #Shipaton2026
Three TikToks in. Billie Eilish is clearly outperforming the others — current, active artists seem to move faster than nostalgia acts.
A new ocean-themed skin is in App Review. Two more built and ready to ship.

Day 41 of #Shipaton2026
Mostly backend work. Found a spam-like post disguised as a festival in Hype, deleted it, added a filter.
Also learned: posting TikTok from a browser gets zero views. Posting from my phone fixed it instantly.
#BuildInPublic #Shipaton @revenuecat.com

Day 40 of #Shipaton2026
Made a short video for TikTok.
Almost went with a feature walkthrough. Killed it — the UI doesn't move enough to carry a video on its own. Stripped it down to a question, a poster, another question. Nothing else.

Day 39 of #Shipaton2026
Submitted to Devpost.
The demo video I'd been poking at since late August finally came together. Two minutes, my own English narration on top.
Next: more skins, a few short how-to videos.
#BuildInPublic #Shipaton @revenuecat.com

Day 35 of #Shipaton2026
Demo video: audio done. Narration, captions, music, logo, somehow.
Now the app screens. Recorded my iPhone via QuickTime, made the phone frame in Keynote.
More tomorrow. Chip away over the weekend, maybe submit next week.
