These are the apps that you don't need to make (unless someone is paying you).
1. Freemium Games
We all know the trending formula in the mobile gaming industry. You download a free app, you spend some time and you realize that you could pay to have more fun.
A lot of games exploit this feature knowing that spending 50 cents is pretty straightforward to anyone that can afford a smartphone but the actual game in many ocasions is hideous; either you have to spend 24 hours so you can make a little progress or you have to wait to try again.
The game by itself won't be able to sell if it's not hooked in the formula of another that has already millions of downloads. You won't believe me? Try searching for the word "crush" or "saga" in the Play Store then buckle up.
2. Theme apps
You are not the only one that saw Iron Man and the Jarvis interface. Deal with it.
There are thousands of apps that turn your phone using cool features and creating a new interface for you. Sure the screenshot looks very cool but in numerous cases you will have to root your phone; rooting a phone not only will decrease the number of downloads but it is a sign that the app is doing something that shold not be allowed and many users take care of what they put in their phones.
Rooting the phone is the first problem, after you test your app you will see how much memory and processor power it spends just for standing idle. Not everyone out there can afford the most powerful smartphone and in the sight of a few bugs the feedbacks will bury your app deep down in the bottom.
3. Steal Wi-Fi signals
It's illegal. Any doubts?
Google can and will scan some of the code in your app. If they find suspicious behavior in your app they will remove it and they could ban your account.
Does it worth it? Absolutely not!. There numerous public spaces with free Wi-Fi now. Most places offer that as part of the service. Hotels, stores, restaurants and the list goes on and on.
4. Fake features app
You are smart enough to realize that an app can't turn your screen into a fingerprint lock screen.
The user will download the app and once they realize of the scam there goes the negative review. Usually the reviews are a heads up for some bugs but with this kind of apps there is nothing to fix because there is no features at all!
Just don't waste your time in this.
5. Hello World apps
We are very proud of the community. I encourage everyone to go out and publish their apps and make a living of it.
But honesly, press a button then here is a kitten it's not going to make it. If you don't have a suitable idea that can actually be useful for at least 1 person then save it, learn more and try again later.
Thank you for reading
