Today
- Prepare the G3 check for the close: list the five “a person sent me the game” answers by install and date (SIM-12) → G3 (new installs a person sent). Done at 07:13 and written to SIM-12. Of the five answers, one is a tester the founder invited himself, and two look like one phone installed twice. G3 reads at most 3 against a target of 5, before the founder marks the rest.
- Settle whether the Pet Med Reminder ads lead to installs: check that the App Store tap is counted inside Instagram’s in-app browser, and read downloads per ad from App Analytics (PMR-57) → P1 (external installs with a first dose inside 48 hours). The day 1 read found about 42 phone visitors from the ads and 0 or 1 App Store taps. Either the landing page loses them or the tap is not measured. App Analytics data for the first two days should now be in. An install today still has its 48 hours inside the window.
- Read the Show Notes store page by hand: page views and first downloads since 1.5.0 (SN-58) → S1 (strangers who read a summary of a followed show). Done by the founder on Oct 7.
Show Notes and Paroletta start nothing new, as the Oct 1 amendment says.

Clear.
- Default Alive 1.0 (16):
WAITING_FOR_REVIEW, 5.3 days (submitted Oct 2). Inside the 5 to 9 day budget. When Apple approves it, it is not released (manual release, held for v2). - Pet Med Reminder 1.12.1 (27): submitted Oct 6,
WAITING_FOR_REVIEW, 1.3 days. It adds the Meta SDK for app promotion ads (PMR-60). It releases automatically on approval. Name, subtitle and keywords are unchanged, so the store listing hold to Oct 10 (PMR-37) is intact. - App Store agreements: active to Oct 23, 16 days away (read Sept 26, not re-read).
- Uploaded and not submitted for more than seven days: clear. Default Alive builds 17 and 18 went to TestFlight on Oct 3.
Since yesterday
- The Pet Med Reminder ads delivered on day 1: 35 link clicks for $13.35, about the same for both ads. Almost no visitor tapped through to the App Store, or the tap was not counted.
- A redirect straight to the App Store was tried and refused by Meta: its Traffic objective does not accept App Store links. The current test keeps its landing pages to its Oct 12 end.
- Pet Med Reminder 1.12.1 went to App Review on Oct 6 with Meta’s SDK, so a second round can use app promotion ads that open the store page directly and count installs. Review takes 5 to 9 days, so this serves the next cycle, not P1.
- The ad account now has a $200 spending limit. It was not set before Oct 6.
