The 5 Biggest Mistakes First-Time App Founders Make


Listen Later

Before you dive headfirst into development, let's explore some common pitfalls that can derail even the most promising app ideas. 
In this video, we'll discuss the top mistakes first-time app owners make, including:

  • Trying to perfect your MVP: Don't aim for perfection initially, you can iterate and improve later based on user feedback.
  • Too many features: Keep it simple, overloading your app with features can confuse users.
  • Focus too much on downloads: Prioritize user engagement and retention over raw download numbers.
  • Too Big Too Soon: Start small and scale gradually. Trying to build a massive app from the outset can be overwhelming and resource-intensive.
  • Marketing <> Product: Your marketing efforts should accurately reflect your app's value proposition.
  • Book a consultation call:
