if your annual plan is only $67, you're going to struggle with paid acquisition
consumer apps are priced so f*cking LOW
solutions:
1. add more in-app purchases (to increase AOV)
2. best solution -> web2app funnel to dodge the apple tax and add order bumps OTOs

Worked great but was definitely some drop off
Hoping to see good results with Web2app

I know Glam AI hit $70M ARR earlier this year, in large part to their web2app funnels.
They’re a cheat code especially when scaling apps with paid ads.
You can build one in a day with tools like FunnelFox (instead of hiring a dev), and keep 95% of your revenue instantly.
Worth checking out.
Top app companies are migrating to web2app using tools like funnelfox. People say it doesn't convert well, but you can actually charge more $. (more revenue)
If you're at the $100k MRR mark, you should be testing different trial offers. (Not free)
DM me I can help run your campaigns

I only recently added login system to my app lol
My app has been out for more than 7 months btw.
I only added it because i'm considering adding web2app funnels at some point and I have credit system now.
Many founders add registration because competitors have it.
But every registration screen is friction. Every extra step reduces conversion.
Before adding sign up, ask yourself: what becomes impossible without an account?
For most apps, the answer is nothing. If your app works without registration, don’t force users to create one.

I think most people can see where I'm going with this:
A *real* web2app sales funnel that auto tests itself with AI ad creatives
The prelaunch part is just the beginning. Slowly getting everything working with lower stakes (idea validation) vs real users processing real sales.

Building apps that actually make money is hard
So I built a platform that validates app ideas for you
Instead of spending months building an app that flops.. now you can validate your app ideas within a few days
Just enter your app idea and this tool does the rest for you:
→ analyses your target market
→ generates the ads
→ creates an entire fake sales funnel
to assess REAL purchase intent…
to find out whether you should actually build the thing.. or try something else
its called prelauncher and its available now

Tomorrow I start testing web2app vs in app subscriptions
I think most people miss the importance of this.
If you’re using stripe, you get your money in 48 hours or less.
Meaning you can reinvest way quicker.
Any quick pay, paywall service takes 3%.
Which makes your total fees 19%.
If my new CPA is any less than 19% I win because I can reinvest so quick now.

The 5 distribution channels I'd focus on in 2026:
• ASO
• Apple Ads
• Meta Ads Web2App Funnels
• Content-First Validation
• A controversial growth hack we've used for 10 years

I did the same for my own app. Once organic visitors started to flow in I thought adding web2app will be solution but turn out it's working much better when I just direct them to the onboarding, paywall and make the app web based - much better RR!🤯
Perhaps it's just the use case with my product.

the split is the interesting part
2 week old app and web2app is already bigger than App Store
that means the landing page is not just checkout. it is the test:
can you sell the promise before Apple hides all the context?

to make it legally compliant if you need i.e. purchase from Saudi's you need to register company/taxes there somehow - that's why big no for saas/stripe web2app for me
