CodeWithChris I have a fitness program I’ve been giving to friends for free since 2006. One of my friends suggested I present it via KZbin video series. I figure a next step up would be an app. If I can develop it myself, at least sell it to those who have promised to try it. Then it’ll be a marginal success. Whenever someone asks, how do I get and like that? I’ll point them to the app.

I think firstly you have to figure out what you love doing. If you love making money the most then developing apps is not the (only) answer. If you love making awesome apps by yourself, you need to learn other skills like marketing to earn money from doing what you love. Or, you might cooperate with your friend who can do marketing. You can be an app millionaire or not but it doesn’t matter. You’ll able to earn enough for living in this industry if you’re really serious

I'm building my first app and hoping that it will work out ok. It is not something for the general public, instead it is geared towards a specific niche market in which I used to work. If it doesn't sell it is not going to break the bank for me but of course it would be nice if it does well.

hi! do you have a video or could you please tell me if you want to build an app just by paying an app development company to make it, how much would it cost to make it. (good apps such as pokemon go, clash of clans, candy crash etc. how much would it cost ?)

[@w0mblemania]

I completely agree. It's not enough to code and design. It's not even enough to ship a great app. Don't fool yourself that if you build a great app, people will flock to it. You're not going to get some huge viral hit based on the intrinsic wonderfulness of your app and word-of-mouth sales. The app store doesn't work that way anymore. All those "indie hits" you hear about? They almost always have great marketing and/or social-media connections, usually through major influencers. So, you need MARKETING. If marketing isn't a CORE part of your app release strategy, then, frankly, you don't have a viable app strategy. p.s. I hate marketing, but I had to learn to get over myself, and treat app development as a business instead of a purely creative exercise.

Great honest video, I published my first paid app just over a month ago. It took me 3 months to make and Ive spent around 80 nzd on marketing it. So far sitting at 55 downloads and $92 nzd revenue. I'm happy with that but for the time and money put in it's a massively low return :( I figure as long as I'm enjoying the development process, it's fine but for anyone thinking it's a get rich scheme it's definitely not.

[@CodeWithChris]

So I made the math.... (well, thanks Google!). 80 nzd is $50US. Well, the most important part is that you made a return in investment but the biggest return is also what you have learned because this can be priceless to an employer in the future who needs help to build his dream! I know only less than 1% of apps make it to the front page (like Flappy Birds and such!). Still believe in what you do and code with passion! PS: I made $0 on my app!

Any money it makes would be nice, but not required. I'd be sad if it makes less than the costs of setting it up.

If making money is what you are after, app development isn't it unless you work for a company. The vast majority if apps will not make a dime.

I'm trying to build my first app on my own.. I'm downloading online books about android, java and Xcode...at the national library.. I understand them very well because I've a financial and scientific professional background... I'm not a software developer, and I don't have any clue about programming .. But as You said, it is really hard.. but I will try to keep going until I have it... I'm trying to settle a problem in the soccer sector in my country. I hope I can solve it with the app that I'm currently building. And yes, unfortunately I'm doing it for the money.... Thanks for the video 🙂

So far, I have earned less money than I spent on registering as an Android developer, which costs $25.

[@CodeWithChris]

Oh same for me, but the thrill of having an app on the App Store is rewarding! -Adrien

[@alixsonpl7973]

ive got 7 dollar for 4 years. lol

[@babatundeonabajo]

This is true for most people. It's worse with Apple because the fee is $99 *every year* and you need to buy a Mac which can be upwards $1500, so it's definitely loss-making for sure.

[@ichliebejava5115]

This is everyone's story.

[@davidlide6941]

I am learning to sell apps as part of my marketing agency to clients.

[@CodeWithChris]

[@Laughter513]

How to start building apps?

Funny you ask, we have a couple of videos about this: bit.ly/BeginnersPlaylist @AdrienVillez

[@ManeelxAkosAdor]

I don't see too much overhead on having the marketing part down. You dont need to be a "marketing master", just segmentate your target correctly when paying for Google Ads: you don't need to be too clever either to know which is your target. If you dont get downloads is because Google Ads system is bad at its own job and not showing the add to the relevant target (or the content of the add is not engaging enough to trigger the download). Am I missing something?

[@CodeWithChris]

Thanks for sharing! - Pat

[@EnriqueDeloSantos603]

New subscriber here My motive is to make $ I have an app idea that I feel very strongly about and I want to see it through but don't want to go bankrupt in the process I contacted developers here in the states who charged me more $ than I make in a year I also reached out to a developer in India who at first seemed promising but we ended up hitting a wall when he stated that there were limitations to my expectations on some of the features Looking forward to learning how to build my app and seeing if it flys on the market or not
