<p>My product is a polished, ad-free universal TV remote app for iPhone and Apple Watch, live on the App Store since August 2026. It controls Wi-Fi TVs and streaming players from Roku, Samsung, LG, Vizio, Sony, TCL, Vestel and more over the home network. Features: Lock Screen and Dynamic Island remote (Live Activity), widgets, Control Center controls, Siri and Shortcuts, Apple Watch app with Digital Crown volume, scenes, multiple TVs, touchpad, keyboard and voice input. Already updated for the foldable iPhone (v2.1). Localized into 15 languages, rated 5.0. I built it as a privacy-first alternative to ad-heavy remote apps.</p><p><b>Key highlights:</b></p><ul> <li>Annual revenue: ~$52 since launch (Sep $26, Oct $26), annualized ~$200</li> <li>Annual profit: same as revenue, no running costs</li> <li>Churn rate: n/a (one-time purchase)</li> <li>LTV: one-time Pro unlock</li> <li>CAC: $0, 100% organic</li> <li>Business margin: ~100% (no servers, no paid tools)</li> <li>Last 90 days: ~64K App Store impressions, 1.75K product page views, 1.1K first-time downloads, 2.5% conversion</li> </ul> <p><b>Team</b></p><p>Solo founder. I designed and built the app (coded with AI assistance) and handle releases and App Store listing.</p><p><b>Tech Stack</b></p><p>Native Swift app for iOS 17+ and watchOS with widgets, Live Activities, App Intents (Siri/Shortcuts) and StoreKit in-app purchase. No backend: everything runs locally on the device and home Wi-Fi.</p><p><b>Marketing and growth</b></p><p>Only App Store search optimization (localized listing in 15 languages). Zero ad spend so far, so paid search ads are an untested growth lever.</p><p><b>Revenue and profit</b></p><p>Monetization: 14-day free trial, then a one-time lifetime unlock. Proceeds: Aug 2026 $0 (launch), Sep 2026 $26, Oct 2026 $26. Expenses: $0. Revenue is low because of the one-time model, not lack of traffic.</p><p><b>Return on investment</b></p><p>Category leaders monetize TV remote apps with weekly or yearly subscriptions. Switching the paywall to a subscription and adding Apple Search Ads on top of the existing organic installs can raise monthly revenue quickly and shorten payback to a few months.</p><p><b>Startup assets</b></p><ul> <li>App Store app transfer (listing, 5.0 rating, ranking history)</li> <li>Full source code (iPhone, Apple Watch, widgets, Live Activity, App Intents)</li> <li>Brand assets: name, icon, screenshots, App Store copy in 15 languages</li> <li>30 days of handover support.</li> </ul> <p><b>Risks</b></p><p>Competitive category and dependency on App Store search ranking; TV makers can change local control APIs. Mitigation: keep the app updated, diversify with paid search ads, and add more brands.</p><p><b>Summary</b></p><p>A finished, well-reviewed, no-cost-to-run utility app with steady organic installs in a high-volume category, priced low because it has never been monetized aggressively. A buyer with a subscription paywall and a small ad budget gets an easy upside.</p><p>✅ $52 TTM revenue</p><p>✅ 14 customers</p><p>✅ Business model: LTD</p><p>✅ Built with Swift</p>
