30,000 active users. Android. Health app that was coded in 2 hours. Ads were great at $14-19 a day. Using the app myself, I noticed the ads interfered with the experience. I removed them. $0 for 4 years.

I'm stopping smoking today. I plan to create an Android app every three days. Hopefully, I can get a little side revenue coming in.

I agree that Ads kills the experience. I am working on few more apps and not planning to add Ads (will add optional buy feature)
