If you sold a million copies of an app worth $1 you would be considered rich in all western countries.
So /g/, why haven't you made your killer app yet?

Wouldn't you only get $0.05 per sale though?

Lets assume $1 profit then. But you're right taxes + app store fees can be huge
>>61284742
70, i think
minus (((fees)))

As it is related to marketing you actually need to have multiple design steps to an app even before you get programmers onto that job.
Why haven't I made a killer app, I have. The market in the application field is very competitive and selling one million copies are for those company who paid for advertisements on buses and online ads.

That means you'd have to sell an app for $4 to net a dollar profit. Then you have to add in taxes, which run 30-50%.

Not to also speak about TV ads and further exposure stunts. Making software functional does not mean your app will show up in top ten. It quite a different field when you reach market vs product.
You really need to know marketing instead of just think flat by focusing on just software. The whole stack is needed and not just the product.

Removing margins, how will you even sell your app if you believe simply selling it will bring profit.
You have no advertisements ad believe an app will sell its self. If that is not an fail start-up when I see it...
Most platforms take 30% or more. Taxes for everything take another 20-40% in most places.
Getting rich isn't easy, only staying very rich is.

$1?
I am not making a fucking game that hooks retards into making micro transactions here...

OP is just an underage cunt who thinks everyone in app development can just hammer out a Candy Crush tier app after their 6 month boot camp.

>Micro
>Transactions

Give it away for free and just sell their data instead, That's far more profitable.
>>61284849
Why not both?
>>61284812
I would have to agree with that.
I sense OP is one of those cunts who think programming jobs are "20 mins tops" jobs.

Also invite users to buy coins to a false sense of achievement hole.
>>>Buy coins which improves nothing in your life
>>>Free game with timers of everything
>>>>Improve with coins
