In 2020 I was leading an iOS project involving multiple teams in a fast-paced startup environment, which meant lots of bite-sized releases. But with every app release, we faced these challenges: - "Is the app live yet?" questions from the project manager and other peers. - Uncertainty about when to test on TestFlight for our QA team. - Marketing struggling to track app version releases for SEO impact. - Delayed reactions to app rejections. To solve these, I created a simple script that posted real-time updates to Slack about the status of the app. It worked great, and I open-sourced it. Today I'm launching the SaaS version, Statused, supporting multiple accounts and channels. The advantage of the SaaS over using the open source version is that it's now super easy to manage multiple apps, and you don't need to waste time setting up and maintaining your own server infrastructure to run it on your own. Your support can help add Google Play, new channels, and insightful metrics. I'd love to hear any and every feedback you may have! 🚀 Don't forget to check out the exclusive coupon for Product Hunters, PRODUCTHUNT, for a special 20% off on your first subscription.

Congratulations! Introducing a feature to sync with multiple Slack channels for larger teams would be an awesome feature. Additionally, it could be interesting to explore integrating other app stores apart from just Apple's and expanding the review monitoring capabilities.

@naveed_rehman thank you Naveed! 🙌 Absolutely, expanding to Google Play is already a feature some users want, and also expanding to other tools like Teams and Telegram. I’m not sure what you mean by syncing with multiple Slack channels, could you explain? You mean sending the same notifications about an app to different Slack channels (eg marketing channel vs engineering channel)? If so? That’s already possible! And by “expanding the review monitoring” you mean Apple’s app review monitoring, or monitoring user’s app store reviews? Greatly appreciate all the feedback!🙏

We use Statused at Tellus and it is a must have for companies with mobile apps. It brought us a single source of truth for our app's status and even non-technical members of the company can now always be up-to-date and have more reliable metrics of conversions data. I can't recommend this product enough!

@matolah thank you for your support Mateus! 😻

We use Statused and it's really great at automating app status updates from the App Store. It has reduced the amount of manual work required to update the company on when new app updates are approved and go live.
