Short excerpt

“My first 3-4 apps failed.”

Revenue clues

Weightify and seed identifier mobile apps reached $1K MRR in under six months. Older posts showed $2K MRR in April 2026. Android contributed about 80% of revenue and iOS about 20%.
The author moved from freelancing and part-time work into mobile apps. The first 3-4 apps failed; Weightify was built in one day, and the seed identifier shipped to iOS/Android in two days. He says there was no paid marketing and most metadata was AI-generated.

Summary

This is a micro mobile-app case: fast shipping, app-store search, AI-generated metadata, and a portfolio of utility apps. It is useful for comparing Android and iOS monetization in small AI/utility apps.
