You're facing an uphill battle. Angels and Seed Funds see a new app every hour of the day. Same goes for incubators and accelerators. No one will invest cold because there is no way to protect it. There's nothing patentable. You'll have to show rapid user adoption. If you can hit 10-20k users wit...
I founded one of the first independent app development studios just as App Store went live in 2008. In addition to building this successful indie studio, I've helped dozens of companies launch successful apps on App Store and Play Store. Congratulations! Ten thousand downloads a day is a great s...

Hi First of all, well done for building a business - getting users and downloads - this isn't an easy thing to do. The best option (based on what you mentioned) for selling your app, would be to use one of the following websites: 1. https://www.businessesforsale.com/search/websites-for-sale 2. ...
