KJ Jones, I totally flubbed my monetization strategy when I launched. I started off as freemium with IAP to unlock features. But nobody — not even my mom! — was spending to unlock. So I finally succombed to running ads. To assuage my guilt and to offer my clients some incentive, I unlocked all the features and have been asking them to make an IAP to get rid of those pesky things. It’s working — they’re buying.

I think you should consider 2 things: get some honest feedback from those friends that bought the app and then decide whether to 1) keep working on it, or 2) let it die and apply your learnings to a next project.

I’d be happy to do some user experience testing if you want to throw a promo code my way.
