- 💰 Revenue: Marginal — $200 - $1250/mo · INDIE tier · medium confidence, trajectory unclear.
- ⭐ Quality: 3.0★ across 27 reviews — weak — significant quality concerns.
- 📍 Market: Not yet charting in any of the 9 monitored markets.
- 📈 Growth: Insufficient signal to assess trajectory.
- ⚠️ Risk: Moderate — no material risk signals detected.
🎯 For competitors: Mixed picture. Worth competing if you have a clear UX or pricing edge — otherwise crowded segment.
💵 For acquirers: Estimated asking range 18-32× monthly = $9K-$16K. Portfolio play ($2K/mo combined) commands premium.

★★★★★ This App is Amazing!
It has everything I need to get ready for RootsTech, and then some! The details on each class helps me choose which I’d like to attend. And, my favorite part is the feature to be able to create my own class schedule! That is so awesome! Tha…
★★★★☆ So changed my mind
I saw on someone else’s review it’s only for in person attendees. I’ve waisted over an hour trying to log in. It would be nice if you had that information on the app before I downloaded it.
However, for what I can do with it, it is good.…

★☆☆☆☆ I’m registered!!!
So I registered for several classes. The app won’t allow me to log in because FamilySearch and RootsTech never sent to QR code. Could be a bit more professional or at the very least you could stop promoting this app.…
★☆☆☆☆ Also cannot sign in
I registered on my computer online. Downloaded the app so I could listen at least while I went about my day. Go to login. Then it says enter code. No code is ever sent to my email. Can’t login. Very frustrating. Why have an app for my mobil…

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.

About this analysis
Why low confidence: only 27 ratings · no founder-verified revenue (model estimate only) · revenue figure is directional only.
📌 Final verdict — read this before you trust the numbers above
RootsTech SLC is a small / niche iOS app in the business space with weak public traction — only 27 ratings, no founder-verified MRR, and not ranked in any monitored grossing chart. The app appears to be monetised, but public signals are too sparse for a precise revenue estimate.
Bottom line: treat all revenue, audience and acquisition-value numbers on this page as directional only — not founder-verified facts.
