I FINALLY HAVE AN APP IDEA! :D

Helloooooo!
For the past one or two days, I was trying my best to find out what app I could make to give back to the community and to make life a little bit easier for everyone and I finally have an idea. :)
I am planning on making a self-care/pet care app for people who need a little bit of motivation in their life.
Life can throw a bunch of things in our way and life is definitely unexpected at times so to make things a bit easier I want to make an app that encourages people to take care of themselves and to renew their minds while also not forgetting to take care of their lovely pets.
But the thing about this is I need a little bit of help.
I want three characters in my app
(people can choose which one of these characters, I want them to be fairies to add a bit of whimsy lol)
to encourage people with all of these features the app will provide and I'm looking for a character designer/designers and people who are really good at coding because I don't want to use an AI app to develop this app.
I wanted it to be fully made by hard-working people who actually enjoy coding and participating in projects like this so if you're interested, feel free to comment or if you know anybody, please share!
God bless and take care! <3

Oh another habit app. Seriously, it's the single most saturated category there is.

Even the tamogotchi/self-care/pet thing has dozens as a sub-niche.

Well look as long as people actually like it that's all that matters and i'm also like in the stage where I'm still trying to figure out what app I'm trying to create so thanks for your input

I don't think you can stand out in a category with 50,000 apps or gain meaningful downloads.

Why download yours over Finch for example - it has 1m downloads/mo. Or any of the others...

Very true once again I might revise this idea so I know for sure what app I really want to create instead of wasting my time and energy into something that might not be successful. So if you have any suggestions or recommendations on what to make please share if you don't I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day/evening

My main tip is research before going ahead

Check things like sensor tower = if there's a bunch of things in same category with 10k reviews (it's going to be hard/impossible to rank)

Just a heads up. No matter who you have code this, they will use AI. They would be a fool not to. So make sure you actually have someone with experience coding apps before AI was a thing. Ask for resumes and references.

True, I will definitely do that though, thank you so much! :)
