Many of us have built an app, a landing page, or a ministry tool and then asked, “Now how do people find it?” Lovable just launched Growth Tools. In the same chat where you build, you can now say something like “Help me get my first 100 signups” or “Get more people to my Saturday class.” Lovable will: ✅ Make a growth plan based on your app and your audience ✅Help you get found on Google Search and in AI search (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) ✅Set up your Google Maps listing if you have a physical location ✅Draft posts for the online communities where your people already spend time ✅Create ad images, videos, and copy from your app ✅Launch ads on Google, YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram 💡 You approve everything before any money is spent. Ad costs are billed by Google and Meta directly, and Lovable adds no extra fee. Learn more here: https://lovable.dev/grow

What caught my attention in this Reddit post is the pattern: small apps built around one specific hobby. The people using them already care about that hobby, spend money on it, and want tools that fit their world. Teaching moment: When you’re looking for an app idea, pay attention to what people repeatedly do, ask for, or struggle to find. A focused solution for a real community can be more useful than another app trying to serve everybody. The revenue figures shared in the post come from Sensor Tower. 🌱 💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰 The pattern i keep seeing in this year's top grossing charts: small apps built for one specific hobby. not "productivity", not another AI assistant. learning irish. ear training. rock hunting. a few that launched in the last 12 months, all with under 1,000 ratings, already making real money (iOS estimates): HeyRua: learn irish by speaking it out loud. launched in august, ~$100K/mo with under 600 ratings Pitch Trainer: ear training for musicians. ~$80K/mo Family Tree Maker: build your family tree with photos. ~$70K/mo SlowRead: a pretty bookshelf + focus sessions so you actually read. ~$40K/mo RockHoundR: a map of where it's actually legal to dig for rocks and fossils. ~$20K/mo with 124 ratings why it works imo: hobby people already spend money on the hobby. $5 a week is nothing next to a guitar or a rock hammer they're obsessed. they open the app because they want to, not because a notification told them to the communities are tight. one good post in an irish learners group or a rockhounding sub and you're set big companies don't bother. nobody at google is building a rock hunting app hobbies i'd look at next: knitting, fly fishing, woodworking, beekeeping, bonsai, metal detecting, home brewing. each one has a crowd that buys gear and argues about it online. What’s a hobby you're into that still doesn't have a good app?

🔐 Before you hit publish, flip through these slides. I sat in on Lovable's security session with Ayoub Fandi from their Security Team, and turned the key takeaways into 7 slides for us. Most of us are building with AI, not code. That's a strength. But it also means security can slip through the cracks if we don't know what to ask for. Here are the 5 things to check before you publish: 1️⃣ Each person sees only their own data 2️⃣ Your keys and passwords stay hidden 3️⃣ You run a deep security scan 4️⃣ Important rules live on the server, not the page 5️⃣ You can prove it's safe Each slide shows what to do in Lovable AND what it's called on other platforms like Bolt, Replit, Cursor and Bubble. Pick one app you've built this week and run through the list. Comment DONE when you've checked it, or drop a question if you get stuck on a step. Let's help each other build safe. 💪
