How did Lim come up with the idea for Mobbin?

Jiho Lim, the founder of Mobbin, came up with the idea while he was working as a freelance designer. He noticed how tedious and repetitive it was to research well-designed apps for UI/UX inspiration. The process involved downloading apps, taking numerous screenshots, and then deleting them, only to repeat the cycle for each new project. This frustration highlighted a gap in the market for an organized reference library that designers could use efficiently.
