We're Android first. Exclusive actually. Barrier to entry is almost zero and none of the time-wasting finger-crossing hurdles you describe. We're self-sustaining with a top ten paid app and about to release another exclusive that can only be possible due to Android's open nature.

Clarification - your app can only be possible on Android because it's a widget app which Apple doesn't allow. So it makes sense you're Android only. Some paid apps like yours do well on Android (congrats) but I am really referencing bigger products / services.

Our next app has that potential. We are thinking multi-platform, but it's very limited on iOS so not sure how well it will go.

I'm an HD Widgets user and all, but AFAICT, you guys are in 15th place right now.

We go up and down. We were at 10 a week ago. We've also been distracted with the new app.

App ranking is hard to keep up with.

Not for us. We have an app for that:

... actually, I am defending your point that you were 10 last week, 15 this week.

Got that. Was just plugging our app =)
