✨AI Revenue EstimateCONFIDENCE: HIGH
The iOS app "BorrowBox" by Bolinda Digital generates no direct revenue from users, as it explicitly states there are no in-app purchases or fees. The app functions as a free service for library members whose local libraries license the BorrowBox platform from Bolinda Digital. Bolinda Digital, the parent company, has an estimated annual revenue of $38.5 million, largely driven by its library services like BorrowBox.

Simple much appreciated.…
★★★★★ BorrowBox is the best.
While firstly experiencing back issues and resultant back surgery, I would not have survived without BorrowBox. Easy to download both audio and ebooks, BorrowBox kept me sane.…

🌍Geographic ReachNot ranked
This app is currently outside the top 100 grossing in all 9 countries we monitor (US, UK, DE, FR, JP, CA, AU, BR, IN). Niche or new apps often launch this way — popularity rankings appear once daily revenue clears the regional threshold.
Profile is built from iTunes Lookup + developer site scrape + ML revenue model. Empty fields show "Not found" — additional sources (Crunchbase, X, IndieHackers, Acquire.com) coming.
