apps.apple.com"Recent growth has been completely organic: the app generated $173 in the last 28 days with no paid advertising and only a handful of posts to its ~1,000-follower chess Instagram account. Direct purchases increased after I removed the free trial. The app requires minimal maintenance and has no server or AI costs. A buyer could grow it through consistent short-form “get roasted by Svetlana” content, ASO and additional character-led features. I’m selling to focus on other projects."
