Agree with the ratings; that's probably one of my biggest struggles right now.

I was considering asking users to leave a rating during onboarding, but based on recent news, Apple has patched that method and doesn't count them as actual reviews.

I also think rating numbers are localized to the user's country (might be wrong on this lol), because on App Store Connect it says I have 37, most within Eurasia.

Regarding the name, what other keywords do you think might be good for an alarm app? There's a 30-character limit for the name, so It's hard to optimize

I built Unsnooze, a mobile app that makes you do physical challenges in order to turn off your alarm clock.

So far, it has around 3k users and makes a little over $400 MRR.

I published this back in the spring and kind of brushed it off during the summer, but I recently picked it back up and wanted to try scaling it.

If you're able to offer any advice or critical feedback, I would appreciate it!
