How much does Color Filter make per month?

Based on our ML-calibrated revenue forecast, Color Filter earns approximately $500/mo. This is a US-storefront-equivalent estimate; global revenue can be several times larger for internationally-distributed apps. See the methodology page for the full formula and confidence bands.

Is Color Filter profitable?

With estimated build cost $130K and monthly revenue $500, Color Filter looks well below break-even — current monthly revenue is much smaller than the estimated build cost. Profitability also depends on paid-acquisition spend and refund rate which the public model doesn't see.

How many users does Color Filter have?

Estimated audience: ~83K lifetime downloads, ~9K monthly active users, and ~1K daily active users. Derived from ratings count × category installs-per-rating × age decay. US-storefront-equivalent — global audience can be 5-10× larger for internationally-distributed apps.

📝 About this app

This app shows an overlay (always on top window) showing a color chosen by you which dims the screen or filters its colors. This may help a night to relax your eyes as most phones screens are to bright and could permantly damage your eyes when staring at it to long while it's dark around you. 

Additionally screens with a tint of blue have been associated with insomnia when stared at before going to sleep. By selecting a red or yellow filter some of the blue colors emitted by your device aren't shown anymore which might prevent this (No scientific confirmation on the effect of this app)… View full description on the official store →
