About the Event

Learn fast. Fix faster. Get roasted.

We’re back with Roast My App, where mobile apps get live, unfiltered feedback from people who build and grow apps.

Theme #3: Retention

This time, we’re going all the way through the user journey.

We’ll start on the App Store, download the app, go through onboarding, hit the paywall, explore the product and keep using it until we’ve had enough.

Then we’ll ask the most important question:

Why would I come back tomorrow?

We’ll discuss and roast:

What makes the first impression?

Does onboarding actually get us to value?

Does the paywall make sense in context?

What makes us want to keep exploring?

Where does the experience lose us?

What would make us come back tomorrow?

And ultimately, does this app deserve a place on our home screen?

No slides.

No prepared speeches.

Just real apps, real reactions and honest feedback from the room.

🔥 What we’ll roast

Selected mobile apps from the community.

Bring your app. We’ll experience it like real users and tell you what we think.
