    The app is currently ranked #11 in the US Mac App Store. Visible on the front page. 🤯 Here's my little app, squeezed between Things and Photoshop. 😍 This makes no sense. 😭

    Results of raising my app's price: ❌ Doubling the price: Too high. ✅ $1 increase: Success! I'll try to increase it again in a few weeks. 📈
