Into the app stores

A phone app is harder to take back than a website. Whatever you ship sits on people's phones, keys included, and old versions keep running for months. App reviewers test with only your notes. This trail covers the problems vibe coders hit getting into the App Store and Google Play, and keeping the app working once it's there.

Other trails

  • Who may see what

    Sign-in, permissions, and the leaks AI-built apps ship most often.

  • The life of a click

    Follow one button press from the browser to the database and back.

  • Money and secrets

    Keys, payments, webhooks, and reading what your AI changed.

  • Data you can lose

    Agents that reset production, backups that are a day old, rollbacks that break.

  • Bills that explode

    Open AI endpoints, bot traffic, fake signups and functions that loop forever.

  • Working with your AI agent

    Dangerous commands, fix loops, deleted tests, prompt injection and invented packages.

  • Launch day

    Emails that never arrive, sign-in errors, timeouts, stale prices and connection limits.

  • Keeping it running

    Silent errors, empty AI credits, expired domains, leaky logs, risky updates and retired models.

  • Accounts and privacy

    Login codes, reset links, email changes, account deletion and customer data sent to AI.

  • Don't trust the browser

    Prices, webhooks, uploads, form limits and coupons: what visitors can change, and what your server must decide.

  • Teams and sharing

    Removed members who keep access, invites anyone can use, exports that leak other customers, guessable share links.
