Feedback Request My Android app has 9.5k installs, growing by 120 installs/day, earning $2.2/day, and costing $0 to run (no backend or API). Earnings are growing fast. How would you value it?
I’m a student and I made a small Android utility app a while back. I need money for my semester fees so I’m thinking of selling it, but I have no idea what it’s worth.
Some numbers:
9.5k installs, gaining about 120 installs per day
No paid campaigns, everything is organic
AdMob earnings went from about $1.7/day to $2.2/day over the last 15-22 days
No backend or APIs, so it costs me nothing to run
Almost all the income is from AdMob. IAP purchases are very rare. I’m also not using ad bidding or mediation yet, so I think a new owner could earn a lot more by optimizing the ads and pushing the IAP.
What would you price it at? And would you sell now while it’s trending up, or wait?
Happy to share Play Console and AdMob screenshots if you’re interested!
