Making $100K/month with iOS apps (BREAKDOWN)

Synopsis

Solo breakdown of the $100K MRR mobile app blueprint: pick a high-frequency daily habit as the wedge, validate demand on Reddit before building, hook the user to a first win inside 60 seconds (ideally inside 24 hours), price at $7–40/month with a 7-day free trial and a $49/year annual anchor, layer in streaks and progress indicators, and combine organic content with paid acquisition. Four example ideas are worked through: a dog allergy scanner, migraine weather guard, silent study timer, plant-watering AI coach.
