My cofounder (15) and I (15) just launched Ascent in TestFlight

It's an educational scrolling app that redirects your scrolling to something more meaningful.

People love the idea of the product, but the next morning just go back to tiktok, insta, or youtube.

Not because Ascent is worse. Because Tiktok, Insta, and Youtube is muscle memory.

Our Current Process so far:

• Building in the open

• $0 spent

Our Questions:

1. How have you dealt with getting people to switch their habits in your products?
2. Is "Better Tiktok" more intriguing than saying a new scrolling app?
3. Any advice on growing without paid ads?

Early beta is available right now: ascentwaitlist.vercel.app

Happy to answer questions about the build, decisions, or more about the product. Any suggestions on how to improve retention?
