Quotes from Ania Wosocka:

"Fast forward a few years, I learned a lot of different tips and techniques that helped me to understand anxiety, where it comes from and really just learn to manage it in my daily life. And that is the promise of Rootd.

And I think one key point is that as a bootstrapped app, it made a lot of sense for me to get users who are downloading via the keyword and they are getting what they’ve searched for exactly.

Often local papers want to feature local entrepreneurs and so that who it started and that was the first one I did when Rootd was launched and it was picked up by local papers.”
