Apps of the Week

Every week we pick a few indie apps and take their App Store screenshots apart: what the first three frames get right, what they cost, and the one change worth making. Free to submit.

The first edition is being put together

We are reading submissions now. Send yours and it will be considered for the opening list.

How we pick

  • We read every submission, and we run only a few. A list that takes everything is worth nothing to the apps on it.
  • We look at the screenshots first. That is the thing we know well enough to be useful about, and it is what the feature is built around.
  • The teardown is honest. If we would change something, we say so. A page full of praise convinces nobody.
  • A small app is not a disadvantage. Download counts are not how we choose. Plenty of well-made apps have almost none yet.
