Instagram – tags for likes

Just tried out the hastags on tagsforlike for my instagram image. It turned out really good and i got more likes then I’ve ever had in just a couple of minutes. The image is not the one I uploaded btw…

Tap for tap paid promotion evaluation.

So i tried tap for taps paid promotion out for my new app Pexture. The result came out pretty bad in my opinion. An install rate of 0.0002%. Definitely not worth it.

The image I use was the tft standard one for the banner and my own appwall-image. My icon isnt the best and the look of the banner isnt very self selling of the content.

Allmost all of the impressions where ont the banner. I will change the banner to a self-designed one and try another campaign with paid promotion.

 

Pexture just released

Finally, Apple approved my new app Pexture. It got released two days ago on the 10th of june 2014 after some issues uploading. Got it rejected by apple five times because it was som hassle with my provisioning profile. Still I had to wait about 7 days every time I uploaded it for a new review.

But now I’m really happy its finally up! The first day it got 22 downloads (it was not a full day) and the second day it got 277 dowloads! So i’m really happy with that. Today I tried out some promotion for it. The platforms I choose was 96apps for a cost of 6.99$ and tap for taps paid promotion with 10$ a day. I will evaluate the effects of it later on.

Check out the 96apps link:

Jay Productions – The background

I founded Jay Productions in the summer of 2013 after getting a consultant job from a friend. The job resulted in the website http://tingspoang.se . I was just finished with the first year of a 1.5 year education called ”Mobile Application Developement” on a school in Stockholm.

During that summer, I had also started working on my first real iOS project. My intentions where big, but the result yet small. But my skills as a developer where getting better and so was the app. After the summer I started my internship at one of Swedens best app companies, Monterosa ( http://monterosa.se ). 

At Monterosa i developed an app for the swedish enviromental protection agency together with one of my classmates, Cia. I also co-produced and helped out with smaller things on some other projects.

Later that fall, i released the app I had started develope that summer, Collage Collection. Which came to be my first release i made all by my self.

 

In this blog. You will follow my way, hopefully to some sort of success. In the app business. I will try to share as much information and statistics as possible. What ways i took. What mistakes I made. So the way for you can be smoother as a developer. Cause it is a jungle out there.
