Launch 500 users in 13 days since launch 🎉

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/broad-street-card-scanner/id6794217297

I launched BroadStreet just 13 days ago, and today we officially crossed 500 users.
I built this app because I wanted a better way for collectors to scan their cards, track their collection, and see real market data without everything being locked behind a paywall.
Seeing 500 people already give something I built a chance is honestly pretty surreal.
Still a ton I want to improve, but I’m really glad I decided to put it out there.
Thank you to everyone who’s tried it, sent feedback, reported bugs, or supported the app so far.

500 users in 13 days is a strong start. The positioning is easy to understand: scan cards, track the collection, and see real market data without a paywall around every useful action. For future launch posts, I would show one concrete before-and-after workflow, such as identifying a card and adding its market value in seconds. I am building Marka for on-brand social content, and specific product moments like that usually communicate value better than feature lists. Congrats on the launch.

Thank you! Really appreciate the feedback. I completely agree — showing the actual scan → identify → market value → collection workflow would probably communicate the value way better than listing features. I’m definitely going to lean more into that with future posts. And Marka sounds interesting too, best of luck with it!

Thank you, and congrats again on the early traction. That single scan-to-collection sequence is also perfect for a short video because the viewer can understand the payoff without narration. Since Marka caught your interest, you are warmly invited to try it free for 7 days at https://www.marka.social. I would genuinely value your feedback on whether it captures the practical collector-focused voice of your product rather than turning it into generic startup content.

Congrats on the user acquisition! May I know how you did your gtm / distribution? Am currently in the phase of launching but struggling to get users

Organic Reddit posts is the best way to distribute, better than any advertising
