In 2016 you had to know how to code.
In 2026 you have to know how to sell.

[Viktor Seraleev @seraleev]

It finally happened!

For the first time in the mobile industry, global app revenue has surpassed game revenue.

In-app purchase revenue for apps reached $85.6B in 2025 (+21% YoY), overtaking $81.8B in in-app game revenue.

Just 4 years ago, game revenue was nearly 2× higher than app revenue.

The Android dev history can be split in two phases:

1.Before Kotlin & Compose
2.After Kotlin & Compose

The biggest revolution Android dev has ever seen.

[Ananthakrishnan KR @ananthakrishnkr]

@JSLSUX @adamlyttleapps @seraleev Yep! Cross-platform with Compose Multiplatform.

🚀 Launched my 2nd iOS app 2 months ago after the failure of my first app

This time, I learned from legends like @adamlyttleapps & @seraleev and applied their strategies from Day 1 📈

Now, it's growing steadily 🙌

Thanks for your inspiration and efforts to the community ❤️

[Ananthakrishnan KR @ananthakrishnkr]

@m_0_r_g_a_n_ @adamlyttleapps @seraleev Yes, 100% ASO✌️

[Ananthakrishnan KR @ananthakrishnkr]

@m_0_r_g_a_n_ @adamlyttleapps @seraleev Thanks. Yeah, that’s from the last 30 days. The app is 2 months old.

[Ananthakrishnan KR @ananthakrishnkr]

@adamlyttleapps @seraleev Thanks, Adam! Coming from you, that means a lot. Learned so much from your ASO strategies. Looking forward to your next video! ❤️

[Ananthakrishnan KR @ananthakrishnkr]

@ramkoo9999 @adamlyttleapps @seraleev Just organic downloads. Pure ASO.

[Ananthakrishnan KR @ananthakrishnkr]

@seraleev @adamlyttleapps Thanks so much! Your insights were a huge part of the learning curve. Excited to keep building! 😍

EVERYONE SHOULD START A BUSINESS

1. because AI agents make it possible to move like a team of ten
2. because you can start one while you still have a job (and probably should)
3. because it rewires your brain
4. because $100 and an audience gets you further today than $1M did in 2010.
5. because AI just created the biggest entrpreneurial opportunity window of human history
6. because it forces you to get good at storytelling
7. because it gives you an absurd amount of leverage in the job market
8. because you get to help people
9. because you can test demand before writing a single line of code.
10. because you can automate the boring parts and focus on the fun
11. because you can test ideas in 48 hours, not 48 weeks
12. because your ideas deserve more than a Google Doc
13. because making money in your sleep never gets old
14. because you get to stand on the shoulders of giants building on their tech (openai, shopify, cloudflare etc)
15. because it's 2025 and you can even get free startup ideas backed by trends @ideabrowser
16. because it's a rollercoaster of emotions and you'll learn a ton about yourself
17. because maybe you can't stop thinking about an idea and it's driving you mad
18. Because life is short and it's fun

Compose for iOS is officially Stable! 🎉

Now you can write your UI in Compose for both iOS and Android, share widgets across platforms, and it compiles to a native app on both platforms! Amazing!

On my auto captions app I made the progress bar exponential

The first 50% takes only 25% of the time
The final 50% takes the remaining 75% to complete

I found the video generation too slow when you’re waiting for a linear progress bar

But when you get a quick win you feel more invested
