I feel like an imposter. I am running an IOT startup alone and it's in development phase.
Product and the app ecosystem is working so well that it's scaring me. Other products are quite finicky. I haven't worked long enough. I imagined it would take an year to develop. My code is quite simple. I just don't know why it's working so well compared to the works of others. I am scared I missing something huge.
I am in depression because work is going smoother than my expectations.

    I feel you.
    I would say, check every permission level, and when the app is published, make backups daily

    It's not just apps. It's a hardware startup. That's why I am this scared.

    I read my rant again. It's not clear about the hardware thing. My mistake.

    Which kind of devices (hw) are you working on?

    Door Locks? Light controls?

    @shelladdicted Both. But main focus is on creating an infrastructure around it. A central server with focus on lower latency and firewall. An ecosystem that you wouldn't hate using. Light controls are almost finished. Door lock(including biometric sensor and NFC) is done except for the video conferencing part.

    Ask a second opinion to be sure?

    How about you try to break it for testing purposes?

    Abuse it really hard?
    Like, do all the things you wouldn't expect people to do with that stuff.

    And maybe get test parts to your local hacker/ maker spaces.

    Here in Germany, it's the chaos computer club.

    Seconded what RageBone says, try to break it as hard as you can, give it all you got, then have others have their way with it.
    If in the end your system is still alive and well, you can go celebrate. If not, you'll know what to fix.
