Over the weekend, I built the onboarding flow for my new app - and I'm giving out the entire playbook for free🫡
Here's the thing:
your onboarding screens are the most important part of your app. Not the features, not even the UI... the onboarding is where you convince users to stay, subscribe, and pay.
This is the moment you control the narrative:
show them why they NEED your app (the value)
get them emotionally invested (ready to buy / warmed up)
and guide them naturally toward the paywall.
By the time they hit the Paywall, their decision should already feel obvious.
Follow this order:
onboarding → sign-up → hard paywall --- and you'll convert more users.
PS: Hard paywall = the subscription screen that blocks access to your app until they pay
Happy building!
