WOD has been on the app store for two full weeks now. It went up on October 8, after being submitted on September 30.

In the first week, I got lots of great feedback about the app, in email and through ratings on the App Store. The feedback was so good that I submitted version 1.1, which has some bug fixes and additional features, this past Monday (still waiting for approval).

To my surprise, it’s been selling reasonably well: right now, it’s sold 287 copies, most in the United States, with some in Europe, Great Britain, Australia, and Canada. This means I’ve personally made about $400 (+/- for exchange rates…). Not bad. It’s beer money. I’m mostly just surprised every morning when I see that it sold a consistent number the previous day. No big jumps, no drop-offs so far.

As far as I know, this has come purely from browsing the App Store or by word-of-mouth, because I don’t see a lot of traffic on my own web server and haven’t found much on the web linking to it (CrossFit West Santa Cruz let me put up a link on their blog, and another CrossFit affiliate picked up the link, but little else). I don’t know how big it will get, or when I’ll saturate the market for people who would want to buy it.
