So it only makes sense to focus on widening the top level funnel, bringing in as many as possible to see if the app fits them.
Maybe after this is a localization push for even more reach?
3/3
Something I’ve noticed is that for users where Bartabs setup clicks with their way of working, it’s really sticky. Some users have been using it consistently for several years now and I’d definitely say it now offers more value than ever, hopefully fitting into even more peoples work.
2/3
Menu screen inside Bartab, showing a single menu item and a top aligned text stating 0/50 monthly free transactions left.
Order sheet inside the Bartab app, showing a total amount to order. At the bottom of the sheet is red text stating ”Monthly transaction limit of 50 reached”. Below the text is a yellow button saying ”Get unlimited transactions”
Excited and scared to put the final touches on the update that will push Bartab to a freemium model with anonymous login support.
But I’m very hopeful this is something that can really push the needle for Bartabs numbers.

Likewise! Love Slices season in general 😍
I would never call it Microslop! That’s deeply disrespectful to Microslop employees and leadership.
So pretty! 🤩 also Metal driven?
This is something that (I think) won’t be used often, but needs to be a smooth, easy and reliable experience.
Polish and reliability feels more important than ever with so much slop hitting the App Store.

OAuth and anonymous sign in all done, with linking and unlinking in place for a smooth and controlled experience 👌
This ”Last used” badge is an easy UX win that I always appreciate in services I use. Stored in keychain so it persists across reinstalls!

Ok, way too many hoops to jump through for Facebook OAuth.
I have a feeling a lot of my primary customer group (small businesses) might use Facebook to sign in, but needing a verified business to leverage OAuth feels like unnecessary friction.
But what do I know 🤷
#buildinpublic #indiedev
Setting up OAuth flows is the least fun I’ve had in quite a while 🙃
I just deleted my account instead 🫣
Not surprised with Tim Cook at the helm.
Sounds like your opinion is nuanced and up to date 🙃
I mean, I think we agree the badge here is nonsensical, but it’s still not a product of an opinionated framework but rather a developer choice?
Iirc this is not the default behavior, so the badge is a developer choice.
Is this really related to which UI framework is used? 🤔

Since its Pokémon Day, I should probably remind you that I make the nicest Pokédex app out there, Ketchup: apps.apple.com/ie/app/ketchup...

This is so awesome! Preordered to try it out with my kids 😊
Think I noticed that earlier! Thanks for being transparent. Seems like it’s fixed now?
Luckily for my use case it’s pretty unlikely two waiters ring up the same order without syncing. I can imagine it can get pretty hairy for others though!
I can imagine, it felt safest to stick with the proven default 😅
I’m just using the default, which is ‘last write wins’, but you can adjust this if you want.
Focus is state. Now in the browser.

I’ve also been doing some significant ASO changes with the last few updates, hoping that can pull some more downloads to trickle down into the (hopefully) more efficient funnel.
Previous research shows the current setup is shedding A LOT of users before they even see the proper inside of the app, so I’m very curious to see how this will pan out.

The biggest reason I unplugged my thumb from my behind and got this done is that the next Bartab update is probably the biggest change, business wise, since its inception.
I’m moving to anonymous access AND a freemium model, hoping to heavily reduce first use friction to get more users in the door.
Finally took the time to set up local instances of Supabase and PowerSync. Surprisingly simple to get up and running actually.
Also set up Cloudflare tunnels for them and the local Vapor server, so I can develop on real devices.
