A simple recipe for growth (after 5 years on mobile development): 1. Find your scale and what you’re done with Ship a lot. 10, 12 apps if that’s what it takes. Clarity comes from building, not planning. You only learn what works by shipping. 2. Pick one paid channel. Go deep. Start with what you can afford. Test slowly. Stay patient. Master one channel before you touch the next. 3. Reinvest. Every month. No exceptions. A big chunk of revenue goes back into growth. No toys. No shortcuts. Reinvestment outlasts motivation every time. No magic formula. No growth hacks. Just shipping, patience, and putting money back in month after month.







Why are Android users like this?


The Apple App Store rules are borderline illegal. This isn’t about security. It's not about malware. It's not about user experience. It’s about control. - Use Google login? You must add Apple login - Sell digital products? You must use Apple payments - Apple takes 30% of your revenue (this is frankly insane) - You can’t tell users about cheaper prices outside the app - You can’t use a different payment system like Bitcoin - Apple can reject your app with vague reasons (or bend over due to political pressure) - You can’t install apps outside their store (most regions) They own the platform. They compete with you on it. And you still have to pay them. Is this a monopoly or a mafia gang?
