I saw on Google Play it says 100+ users. The next step is 500 so there are only between 100 and 500 sales (Free42 has 100k+ downloads, I guess you are your own competitor here), I don't have the iOS numbers but I hope you don't have to live from this.

Sales have been slower than I expected. I figured I'd sell at least 5,000 units, 5% of Free42 users being willing to pay for the upgrade seemed like a reasonable guess, but so far I've only just gotten to 1,000 (Android and iOS combined).

On the positive side, the app has gotten nearly a hundred ratings so far, and without exception, they are 5 stars, so at least the people who have bought the app appear to be happy with it. So maybe sales will continue to come in, even if at a slower rate than I had originally hoped. But I am going to have to find myself another 9-to-5 job, because this won't be sufficient for me to be able to retire early, especially with outrageous housing prices and general inflation making my savings disappear before my eyes. Fun times!
