Ask HN: How do I sell my iOS app?

Is there a Flippa for mobile apps?

Scotty - thank so much for the shout out man, this is Jonathan, I am the founder of Apptopia. To help add some value to the convo:

We actually partner with AppBusinessBrokers - good guys. They handle the $200,000+ spectrum while we really specialize in the $1,000-$150,000 range. SellMyApplication is unfortunately more of a marketing site and lack the real data/stats and the ability to help with the actual transfer.

We are happy to help however we can, and actually thought you might find this informational post about iOS transfers specifically really valuable: http://blog.apptopia.com/iosappstransfer/

If you want to sell an app all you need to do is take it down off the app-store, transfer your code to the buyer and collect your money. The buyer would be responsible for re-listing the app under his/her account. As for websites, I think I remember coming across one called "sellmyapp" or something similar. Try Googling that.

It's www.sellmyapplication.com

Check out http://www.apptopia.com/ I haven't sold an app through them, but it looks great. Similar to Flippa, but mobile only, and perhaps better and more credible than Flippa. It's great to see someone finally doing this right...

Chad Mureta, author of App Empire, recommends these guys.

Care sharing your app here? Maybe someone is interested.
