Simple Apps, But Making $1,000,000+
A big idea isn’t always a GREAT idea.
We thought that only big ideas make millions of dollars. But sometimes a simple idea is what you need.
A simple app that solves something. But if it is a consumer app, that solves two problems. Either save money or save time, or in the best case, both.
I have been building apps for around 3 years, and the only successful app that I can say is my AI wrapper app (chat.adarsh-gupta.in). Although it wasn’t an explosive success, I got around 100 users and 8+ paying customers.
I try to validate ideas, but I really found something very common in most of the apps that are making money. They are simple and solves an unique problem.
Here are some of the simple app ideas that made it big.
1. Texts.com
We were having Twitter chats, Gmail chats, Facebook chats, Instagram chats, and whatnot.
But there wasn’t an app that could allow a user to chat with all these apps.
That's what Texts.com solved, and recently it was sold to WordPress for a whopping $50 million dollars.
