Show HN: FollowTheseApps - App Changelogs in Your RSS Feed

1 pointsby manifest23about 12 years ago
When we were developing our main project, ForkJoy (https://forkjoy.com) , I noticed that I had downloaded almost every food app in the AppStore. I ended up with 3 folders full of food apps just so I could keep up to date with what the other guys were doing. I never used them, I just wanted to see what changes they were making. Our team's developers had the same problem, so one of them did something about it and made a service that scraped the Android/iOS app stores and put the changelogs into an RSS feed that he subscribed to.<p>We figured that other people would have the same problem, so we decided to release the product as a service.<p>We're proud to introduce Follow These Apps (https://followtheseapps.com) . This service is useful for the following niches:<p>- App development companies<p><pre><code> * Following competitors * Keeping track of internal app releases </code></pre> - Tech bloggers<p><pre><code> * Getting notified when popular apps (ex: Facebook or Twitter) put out new releases </code></pre> - App enthusiasts<p><pre><code> * Keeping track of their favourite apps * Being notified when certain apps are updated that are not available in their region </code></pre> I'd love to hear some feedback on the idea.<p>Check it out at https://followtheseapps.com
