Hello everyone,

I guess it is about time to make a thread in the journey section.
Every time I visit the forum I mostly check this section and I always want to create one.
Today is the day.

The main reason for this journey is
motivation.

A little introduction about myself:
I am 28 years old who discovered the mobile industry by coincidence back in 2013.
I just finished school back then with a computer science degree and was having fun making apps in my spare time.

After about a year in 2014 one of my apps went viral and income started piling in.
Two years later I had a company with well established apps and was making mobile apps for Android full time.
My last day of income was
3662€.

I never forget that day.
Everything ended with one mail:

"this is a notification that your google play publisher account has been terminated"

I spent the next two years in depression and suicidal state.
After some therapy and world traveling I feel much better now.

Now about this journey:

I believe that anything can be achievable as long as you set goals.
Achievable goals.

My goal for this thread if to have 10 apps by the end of this year.
On both IOS and Android.

I will be sharing my knowledge and experience along the way.
If you have any questions.
Leave them below.

Please note that there will not be any daily updates but I will do my best.

Wish me luck.
Much love to you all ❤️

It's interesting to know why they closed your account. Can you explain this?

There was no specific niche.
My apps were app tools
No reason was given.
I appealed and everything with no success.
 
Following, so are you going to make the same kind of apps again, or something different?

My goal is to have 10 apps live on each platform.
Niche is not important atm.
I am not concerned about IOS but Android as Google can ban you anytime.
 
Hi, sad to read your story here, I'm also an android and web developer and a UI/UX designer, I wish you all the best, if you want to collab maybe we can all work together or with any other devs here too? Have you ever tried making games? even basic 3D games right now created in Unity can go viral after a while. Can you explain what your app is all about?

Will be following this and wish you luck on your journey

Will your apps be white hat?

Do you plan to use any multi platform framework like flutter, xamarin,ionic, cordova, etc?
 
A little update about the journey

Currently build and submitted two apps.
One for Apple and one for Google play.
I will make a detailed reply if they get approved.

On a side note:
Should just update the thread or I make a reply like I just did ?

They are different apps but same niche.
I do not build cross platform apps:
Every app is build with its own language.
Swift in IOS and Java for Android in my case.

I just got a reply from Apple that something is not working on iPad.
I will be fixing it today.

As of Google Play.
Still waiting for app to be approved.
Somehow they take manual reviews for new accounts.

Will update once I get the app approved of rejected.
Until next time.
