How do I find an app idea that makes money?

Start from what already earns. Look for a small app with high revenue for its number of ratings, check that its market has plenty of poorly rated apps, then that a free keyword lets you get found. With all three proofs, the idea holds up.

Is copying an app legal?

Taking a concept, yes: ideas can't be protected. Another app's name, logo, code and visuals, no. Build your own version, with your own design and angle.

Where do the revenue figures come from?

They're rounded estimates, built from public App Store data. They give you an order of magnitude to compare niches, not a bank statement.

What app ideas should I build?

The ones that already have customers. In the explorer, ideas are recomputed every day from App Store revenue, markets and keywords: pick one, find your angle, ship.

App ideas

Your next app idea? It's already making money.

How it works

Find the app idea to build in four moves

Start from what earns
An app already making money is proven demand. A blank page doesn't pay.
Aim small
An app with few ratings and real revenue: one or two devs built it, so can you.
Check the market
Apps in place that disappoint, users still active: there's room left.
Find your angle
A free keyword, a forgotten language, an underserved country: that's where you get ahead.

What earns

Small apps, real revenue.

Victoire spots apps that earn a lot for their size. Few ratings, solid estimated revenue: proof a niche pays, with no giant in front.

Where ideas come from

Five sources, one number each.

Every idea starts from a signal measured in the App Store: revenue, a strong launch, a missing language, a free keyword, an underserved niche.

Proven revenue
A poorly rated niche
A free keyword
A country not yet served

The traps

Four bad good ideas

Ideas that look great on paper, and earn nothing.

The idea with no buyer
Everyone loves it, nobody pays. Look first for an app that already earns.
The exact clone
Taking a concept, yes. Another app's name, logo or visuals, no: do better, not the same.
Giants' turf
An idea that pays, but against apps with 100,000 ratings: no room left for a solo dev.
The idea that's too broad
"A social network for…": too big for a first launch. A precise niche ships in a month.
