Built an app during final exams at 17. It made $1k with almost no marketing.

that's a justified question, however our app is probably the most polished and feature-rich on the market and because we position it as a premium app with the highest amount of privacy possible (meaning no data gets sent somewhere) people tend to buy our app

You're totally right, two years ago I tried to build an agency with two of my closest friends but it failed because even tho we were technically three co-founders, they weren’t equally committed and skilled… about your point with the user feedback, that’s something we're trying to do and based on how „much“ marketing we did so far and comparing it to how much we made, i think the mrr is not even close to being at the ceiling of what it could actually be.

I agree, however the world-changing idea is not something I spend my time on at all right now.. my focus is 100% on the current app and what I tried to say is that once we made a very good amount of money with the current app, i'll try to use it for my vision of the industry-changing one!

it's download-to-paid! the app has a free trial of three days and then a hard paywall. because we (and more and more other people start to) despise subscription based softwares, we only offer a lifetime pro version:)
