I started this after leaving Fancy.com where I led the product team. Our apps were listed in Best Apps of the Year from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. I’ve since spent the last 2 years watching great apps struggle to be found and I’ve been trying to help them any way I could. I built app marketing tools, advertising platforms, and redesigned entire apps (for free) to help them, but the bigger problems became clear; the App Stores have mounting problems and aren’t built to make app developers succeed. I knew I could build something better.
Here’s what’s next for Neue Store; in the next few months we want to launch our Reviews and Ratings product and be Rotten Tomatoes for Apps. We believe reviews from credible, verified reviewers would be much more helpful for apps and consumers alike. After this, we have a few tricks up our sleeve for more tools to help apps and app consumers, including support for Android and VR apps.
It is with constant improvements, feedback from developers, and a superior store experience that we hope to build a better App Store altogether.
Happy to chat in the comments. Thank you!
