I’ve been effortlessly developing my MVP for 11 months now. My iOS app was done way early but I was not mentally ready to release it. Every time I wanted to release I would tell myself that I just need to add another feature and that the app is still premature.
Without noticing I fell into the rabbit hole and was implementing every feature I was thinking of.
What happened after 11 months of doing this? The to-do list was just getting bigger and bigger, and I was mentally and physically exhausted. I knew in my heart I cannot continue like this.
Saturday after work I came home to continue on my app but while opening my laptop said I just couldn’t continue anymore and said ‘screw it’. I suddenly decided to release it as is. It is now or never!
I hit the release button on App Store and was waiting for a big fail. Less than 1 day and it started making sales!!!
What did I learn?The M in MVP stands for minimum guys! Minimum! It took me 11 months to learn this. Don’t do my mistake! Do the minimum and release. The rest is different story!
