Netflix generates personalized thumbnails using AI (netflixtechblog.com/artwork-person…)

retroreel.app previously used official posters for as thumbnail. We don't have fancy AI, but now we make much "cleaner" ones. Has significantly increased time spent in app.

retroreel.app Android app DAU over 350 this weekend. A month ago it was ~170

We're now doing a better job with notifications. People often forget they even have an app installed 💁‍♂️

Next: Personalized notifications 🚧

I've never posted there and my app is not the PH type, but I guessed why not 💁‍♂️

Game/App Tip: Split testing.

Trying 3 app icon variants for retroreel.app, one is 3x better (v small sample, take w/grain of salt)

Imagine getting 3x lesser downloads because of your logo,screenshots,etc

Just keep testing! EZ

Best thing about making an app for the classic film community:

Today was very unproductive, felt bad. Sometimes have trouble sleeping after such days.

Opened inbox and saw this mail just before going to bed.

Turns out today wasn't bad after all!

after a few months of inactivity, a big ui update coming to @RetroReelApp, my #madewithunity movie streaming app

#buildinpublic #indiedev #unitydev

First project with the G2 headset by @PicoInteractive I wish their SDK was clearer but I got things running well.

Custom VR UI input using github.com/adrenak/spatial

#vrdev #madewithunity #buildinpublic

Internal tools can be fun with some extra UI effort :) A little admin app for @RetroReelApp

Made with my #unity3d #ui framework that's build with dynamic UI content in mind.
