You committed "substantial effort" to building these apps, and your total revenue was £584.23, resulting in a net loss of £200? I hope you're doing this as a hobby.

Props for sharing all the data though.

Yeah, even the gross is what, 2-3 days worth of a mid-level+ developer's salary.

All the money I've made in mobile has been for building apps for businesses doing "boring" things that were subscription based. Sounds like I make more in a week of that work than I'd make in a year doing my own apps.
