I can’t believe we’re on week 8 now. This app has challenged me in ways you don’t even know lol.

Here’s our totals as of today:
7924 users +705 this week
412k messages +75,031 this week
801k swipes +120,700 this week
8732 matches +2,339 this week
18,238 games +2,332 this week
6,215 combined days locked +977 this week

I’ve updated the match algorithm to allow for better match chemistry and likelihood of linking, as well as added our own “super liking” feature we call “Keys.”

Today, I launched “Stables” which is essentially our version of Reddit but optimized for chastity and keyholding. I’m excited to see where the community takes it.

I can’t overstate enough just how amazing our community is! It’s so easy to find and meet people and we’ve truly fostered some genuine relationships.

Everything LockedFans is now is because of the feedback from the community. Which features would you like to see next?

7 weeks ago, I posted about an ambitious goal of building the Instagram for chastity… fast forward to today and not only have we built something kinda incredible, but I am plugged as I am writing this because my new Keyholder ordered it 😇.

Where are we now?
- 7,290 active users across 109 countries
+ 879 new users this past week
- 337,187 messages
- 679,952 swipes / 6,393 matches
- 15,906 games played
- 14,025 cage checks / 5,238 days of lock time logged

*more detailed stats posted on my LockedFans story

So crazy to think less than 7 weeks ago, we only had 85 users! And I almost didn’t build this! I’ll talk more about this later but it really boils down to fear. Theres SO many moving parts to running an app like this and it can get quite scary navigating it all as a solo founder.

Anyways- I found my Keyholder on my app and it’s been really fun getting to use the app like everyone else and build in features I really want to improve my own experience with a Keyholder.

Just this week, I added:
- voice messaging
- journaling
- rule tracking
- Keyholder organization and efficiency tools
- and one surprise cute one I’ll let you discover 😜

My personal favorite is the last one and voice messaging. I love replaying voice notes my Keyholder leaves me 😇.

As far as challenges this past week, I’ve really been focusing on how can I make the experience as engaging as possible for users so they keep coming back. We’ve built a strong community and while our growth is healthy, there’s still a pocket of users who don’t come back for a particular reason. This is an ongoing challenge I’m actively designing for, and why I post here- feedback helps the app improve.

Oh- and I almost forgot! Showdowns now carry stakes for voters. When you vote on the losing contestant, you get added time to your session.

If you’re a user, what do you love? What keeps you coming back? And what could we improve?

I first posted here a little less than 6 weeks ago about my idea for a social network for chastity… an “Instagram” for chastity if you will. Fast forward to today, and we’ve got just about 6400 active users (6422 to be exact). Growth in the past week slowed a tad, yielding only about 400 users, but still progress!

Totals to date:
Users: 6422

*more detailed stats on my LockedFans story

The liveliness of our community continues to be a strength of our platform compared to others in the space— due in part by our addicting games 😜, and overall genuinely accepting and welcoming culture we’ve cultivated. It’s long been my goal to build a community that, regardless of body type, age, race, gender, or sexual orientation, prioritizes kindness and inclusivity above all else. I’m proud to say, I think we’ve managed to at least get a good head start in that area. I get countless messages from happy users expressing to me just how easy it’s been to find friends on the app, and I’m so happy to have been a part of that.

Over the past week, despite being able to experience the app myself intimately for the first time by finding a Keyholder and truly becoming immersed, it was still met with some challenges. I probably shouldn’t say this but I believe in transparency, and owning up to my own faults- we got hit with some bot traffic that took many nights of parsing to spot them all and suspend. It took a bit, but I think we’ve got a decent bot detection algorithm that spots them pretty quickly. The algorithm coupled with user reporting has been a big help.

All in all, it’s been quite a learning adventure. So far, I haven’t regretted embarking on this journey once… okay maybe once this week but we all good now!

If you’re one of my existing users, thanks for bearing with me! If you haven’t yet joined, enjoy some premium games on me! https://locked.fans/r/cm

I posted last week about the “Instagram for Chastity” I’m building and we’ve had some decent growth since then and the OG king of chastity himself- cagedjock joined (more on that later)!

First, where are we at on stats?

Week five (33 days from launch):
-Just shy of 6k users (5,944 to be exact)
-235k visits to the site (64.5k last 7 days)
-200k messages sent
-421k swipes on match
-3.8k matches
-10k games played
-22 minutes daily average time spent on the app.

*I’ve added screenshots with more stats to my story on LockedFans

I’ll start with some wins:
I ended the week with a huge one- cagedjock responded me on X and joined! He says he loves the app and design. I screamed so loud when I saw his message. So crazy to think someone so dominant in our space likes something you built. I’m excited to see how we can serve his audience via LockedFans so stay tuned for that!

We’re so close to getting payments set up within the app. NSFW apps are notoriously difficult to secure processing and we’ve gotten some positive signals from banking partners whom I should hear back from this upcoming week with final decisions.

Our retention rate has INCREASED after my last post. Adding the in app tour I think helped, and I think our free premium trial has helped users get a better feel for what the app has to offer (https://locked.fans/r/cm).

Some challenges:
-Found out a bug in our match feature was limiting match results prematurely. It’s fixed now!
-Our For You algorithm had a couple screws loose limiting reach and feed performance. This was patched.

Not the sexiest update yet again, but just wanted to give yall one. As always, I’m open to feedback and suggestions! I’ve added several of the suggestions from last week already. What do you love? What can we improve?

Continuing my “build in public” series where I share my journey building the the next “Instagram for Chastity!”

It’s been almost a month since I first posted about my chastity app, LockedFans (locked. fans/r/gaychastity) - the social network I built for locked subs (and doms).

About 26 days in, here’s where we’re at:
-4,500 users across 54 countries
-2,347 new matches
-158k messages sent
-7,058 posts
-6,129 games played

*and a bunch more stats I’ll add screenshots of on my story on LockedFans. Kinda crazy to think I came so close to not even building LockedFans (more about that later).

Aside from the truly warm and welcoming community we have, the popularity of our games was probably the biggest surprise. What I’ve learned is games have served a much greater purpose than just having a stranger add time to your lock session- it’s become a mechanism of connection and comradery. A muse for mutual accountability. This, I believe, is why in-game chat was requested - which I added soon afterward. It’s probably the biggest driver of our community so far- and I’m super proud of how far we’ve come with it. I’m working on another game right now that builds community even further, and I’m super excited for that.

Of course, like I’ve stated before, it’s not, and never smooth sailing. As a solo founder, I’m wearing a dozen hats and constantly putting out fires it seems 😅. Our users can attest- there have been bugs, and I try my best to zap them as soon as I’m made aware!

Aside from ongoing bug optimizations, I think the biggest challenge I’m working on is keeping users coming back after sign up. While we do have a pretty healthily engaged userbase, I think it could be better. One thing I added recently is a guided tour that helps users learn all the bells and whistles. Although I’ve tried my best to make the app feel as intuitive as possible, I understand it can still be a bit overwhelming at first and it probably scares some people away. So, starting today, there’s an interactive guide that gives you a tour of all the features we have to offer. I’ve also added a free premium trial so users can try everything out (via locked. fans/r/gaychastity).

Not the sexiest update but just thought I’d give a shout! I’m really trying to build something great. As always, I’m open to feedback! What’s kept you coming back? What can we improve?

I posed two weeks ago about the social network I built called LockedFans (https://locked.fans/r/chastity) and I've learned a lot. Firstly, the chastity community as a whole is fun, inclusive, humble, and horny asf 😅. We've been able to channel all our horniness into some killer games that have been a hit such as Lock Roulette - Double or Nothing, and Dominion Roulette. In these games, subs go up against each other and take turns playing roulette with their lock times.

It's been really fun getting feedback that has ultimately improved the experience for users. We've since added in-game chat, and multiplayer support with the new Dominion Roulette game where keyholders pit their subs against each other.

As far as growth, we've went from 85 users two weeks ago to over 3500 users across 54 countries. We've had over 120k site visits in two weeks bottlenecking signups at first but l've been able to increase our limits to allow more users to get through and still have a good experience while on.
It's not come without some hurdles of course, lots of bug fixes and things breaking at first but we've ironed out most of the kinks... for the most part... and today, I decided to be bold and launch video on the platform 😈. Up to 2 second loops for now but as we grow and are able to monetize a bit better, we'll be able to handle longer length videos at scale.

Anyways, just wanted to post an update. Please feel free to let me know your thoughts! I'm still open to feedback as it only makes the experience better for everyone 🤗. What do you love, what can we improve?

Firstly, the chastity community as a whole is fun, inclusive, humble, and horny asf 😅. We've been able to channel all our horniness into some killer games that have been a hit such as Lock Roulette - Double or Nothing, and Dominion Roulette. In these games, subs go up against each other and take turns playing roulette with their lock times.

It's been really fun getting feedback that has ultimately improved the experience for users. We've since added in-game chat, and multiplayer support with the new Dominion Roulette game where keyholders pit their subs against each other.

As far as growth, we've went from 85 users two weeks ago to over 3500 users across 54 countries. We've had over 120k site visits in two weeks bottlenecking signups at first but l've been able to increase our limits to allow more users to get through and still have a good experience while on.
It's not come without some hurdles of course, lots of bug fixes and things breaking at first but we've ironed out most of the kinks... for the most part... and today, I decided to be bold and launch video on the platform 😈. Up to 2 second loops for now but as we grow and are able to monetize a bit better, we'll be able to handle longer length videos at scale.

Anyways, just wanted to post an update. Please feel free to let me know your thoughts! I'm still open to feedback as it only makes the experience better for everyone 🤗. What do you love, what can we improve?

I discovered chastity about a year ago and within the past 6 months or so, I started practicing it, truly having the experience. I found this subreddit, among others, to be a great resource, however I felt like Reddit alone isn’t enough to truly build and engage with the community. While I have tried other apps in the space, they didn’t quite address my needs and I found myself going back to Reddit or Twitter for more meaningful interactions.

So I thought, maybe I need to be the one to build the thing all these apps could to do wayy better- build community, promote active user-ship by design, and be a place we can express ourselves creatively, while building lasting friendships, and also- find that Keyholder to engage with 😏.

So- I built LockedFans (https://locked.fans/r/cm). I’ve spent 82 days testing and iterating with about 85 beta users and 7 days ago, I made a post in r/chastity and as of today we have 3k users!

Please let me know your thoughts. What do you love, what do you hate?

Some core features include:

- A real feed designed for chastity content — posts, photos, comments, reposts, the social stuff you'd expect, but the whole community is people in the lifestyle

- Keyholder/lockee matching with filters that actually make sense — online-only vs IRL, experience level, dynamic preferences, interests. Swipe-style with mutual-like detection.

- Interest tags at signup so your Discover feed surfaces people you'd actually want to follow, not random profiles

- Direct messaging, story-style posts with reactions and replies, and a comments system built for actual conversation

- Session tracking at its core. Every post you make fulfills the daily cage check requirement to verify your lock status while locked— log your lock-ups, build, show streaks on your profile, meet milestones, or choose a lockup session based on specific goals

If you've tried other apps in this space — what worked, what didn't? Genuinely curious what people here would want from something like this.

Can’t wait to hear your thoughts! I truly want to build something we can all be proud of.
