How much does Markers make per month?

Based on our ML-calibrated revenue forecast, Markers earns approximately $1K/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 Markers profitable?

With estimated build cost $160K and monthly revenue $1K, Markers 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 Markers have?

Estimated audience: ~1.1M lifetime downloads, ~44K monthly active users, and ~8K 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.

How much would Markers sell for?

Estimated acquisition value: $20K (marketplace range $15K – $25K). Calculated as 18× monthly revenue using the standard multiple for the detected monetization model + adjustments for age, rating quality and category demand.

📝 About this app

<b>Markers</b> is a simple, multitouch, pressure-sensitive drawing app. Some of its features include:

NOTE: It may take a minute or two of continuous drawing for Markers to adjust to your device’s touch panel, so be patient! (If your device has an active stylus, like the Galaxy Note or HTC Flyer, the true stylus pressure will be used instead.)</li>… View full description on the official store →
