All was working out great, and in the first month I had 100 downloads and the reception was phenomenal. Only five star reviews on App Store.

Is that a typo? Really only 100 downloads? If that's true then the app store is even more of a crapshoot than I thought.



It's only a crapshoot if all you do is drop your app in the store and assume that people will find it by magic.


I've heard several very successful iOS devs say that they basically did exactly that.

I think the secret is finding a rich but unexplored niche but of course that's getting more difficult over time.


The thing about crapshoots is that sometimes you win.
