Day one went well. Day four went bad.

The launch itself turned out better than anticipated. Stable traffic, nice feedback, a few hundred signups. I spent the night answering all of it.

Then Thursday came and traffic was at zero level. No just low but zero. For hours. There wasn't any special plan for Thursday because all the advices which I had seen were for the launch day only.

A user uninstalled my app over a time format, and I only found out because he left a review

Got a one-star review this morning. The whole thing was one line: no 12-hour option, only 24-hour, uninstalled.

He was right. My reminders app shows times in 24-hour format and never checks what the user's phone is set to. I'm from Uruguay. Here everyone uses 24-hour. It genuinely never crossed my mind that it could be a problem.

for People who use scrapers a lot, what are the most common pain points?

recently i was checking out the scraper services and it seemed like easy to build at first but when i thought about scaling it, that's when it got really difficult.
still i wanted to know the opinions of the people who use the scraper services and what services do they use commonly in general and their pain point, that way i will just focus on those points and try to build the first iterations.
really appreciate your thoughts on this matter.
