Great Work Maros! Could you make a video on your marketing strategies/ASO ?

[@user-pg1li8hw4j]

Could you please make a ios developer roadmap. Which are the things to learn and how much time it might take. And please add some sources too if you can!❤

[@sampittko]

You are a great inspiration to me, Maros. Wish you the best luck with Trading Tracker and beyond!
I've made this mistake myself, to give up on my full-time job to pursue my passion project. After 2 months time, it became apparent it is not a sustainable approach. Right now I am contracting + side-hustling while keeping the work-life balance right. Love how you described your journey, was able to find myself in it a couple of times.
Looking forward to another video!

Speaking of work-life balance, would you mind sharing how you keep yours in another video? I would be definitely interested. Cheers

[@thisismaros]

Thank you very much 🙏. I totally understand. It's very tempting to do something you're really passionate about and that brings you joy. I've been there multiple times throughout the years but I always came back to the point from my video - with proper time management I can do both - working full-time and building my own project.

It would be nice to get more info about Slovakia LLC managing and living in another European eu country. And how you manage taxes.

Good video, Maros 👍

[@thisismaros]

Thanks Sean! Appreciate it 🙇‍♂️

[@vladimirmoor]

Is it possible to convert free app to paid and then to in-app purchase? What about users who download app when it was free?

[@N7Tonik]

your setup looks so clean, which monitor are you using?

[@thisismaros]

Thank you! I try to keep my setup as clean and as simple as possible. The monitor I am using is Samsung M7 Smart Monitor. But I don’t really recommend it. The viewing angle and colors are only correct if you’re sitting right in front of it. I will be upgrading to something else very soon.

[@N7Tonik]

@@thisismaros okay nice, waiting for it then ;D

[@TheMrPifagor]

I think it’s really hard to work on daily job and make your own apps. No time for life

[@claragoodlow4377]

Can you make me a app for video
