what happened to QUITTR??? once a very popular porn-addiction recovery app. its est. monthly revenue fell from $200K in April to just $25K in Sep 2026. that’s an 87.5% drop!! I’d genuinely like to hear what happened.

your mom lives alone. she didn't text back yesterday. this app has one button. she taps it every morning: "I'm good." if she doesn't tap by 10am, you get a notification. not a GPS tracker. not a camera. just one tap that means "I'm still here."

How do you make $750,000/month with no free trial and no pricing decoy? You weaponize EMPATHY. Yuka (an Apple Editors' Choice app) uses a "Pay what you want" slider for their premium features. The psychology is brilliant: - Defaults to $15/year to anchor the price. - You can slide down to $10, but the cute carrot mascot loses its smile. - Slide up to $20, and the mascot cheers. By shifting the checkout from a "transaction" to a "donation to the project," it frames the purchase as supporting the developer rather than just paying for the app.

a food scanner app making $150,000/mo... Olive's old paywall had a monthly plan and a yearly plan. the newer one has a "7-day Free trial" and a "$1.99 trial." both lead to the same yearly subscription. old vs new teardown: - removed the demographic opening. the newer version makes you pick an identity avatar - the old version had one fear screen (a line graph). the newer one has a full sequence - added a "Reality Check" scorecard right before the paywall - moved push notification prompt, framed as a health-safety tool - the 7-day trial is unlocked if you share the app via iOS Contacts, the old version gave a 3-day trial for free - the newer paywall offers two options ("Free 7 days" and "$1.99 for 30 days"), both auto-renew to the same year subscription - annual price dropped from $79.99 to $29.99 but buried inside trial decoys -purchase changed from an immediate barcode scanner to a gamified dashboard

Most apps fight to get you on a free trial. This $150k/mo calorie app fights to get you OFF it. 🔥Look at this insane paywall sequence from Calz: • "Try for $0" anchor. • The Shield. "We'll remind you before your trial ends." • The Decoy. $15.99/mo vs. $39.99/year. The free trial is ONLY on the annual plan. 🤯But it gets crazier. The moment you subscribe, an immediate post-purchase pop-up offering 50% off if you forfeit the trial and pay right now.

a BIBLE app is pulling in $40,000 MRR🤯 it literally launched 4 months ago. an app that just sends you Bible verses. Insane. It completely blows my mind what people will pay for if you package it right: - feature carousel to build premium value - deep, emotional personalization quiz - a tricky "Free Trial Enabled" toggle on the paywall that pushes you to a crazy expensive weekly plan if you aren't careful Stop over-engineering your app. Just learn how to sell it!!!
