Where can you listen?

The mobile app economy is a multi-trillion-dollar market, yet most apps fail within 30 days. Lucas and Luna dissect the strategies behind the hits and the graveyard of misses. They explore iOS vs. Android monetization models, from subscription fatigue to the rise of super apps in Asia. They analyze the economics of user acquisition, the psychology of retention, and the pivot of legacy companies like Microsoft into mobile-first design. Each episode takes a specific app category — health, gaming, fintech — and a specific company inside it: how did Strava build a social moat? Why did Snapchat survive while others faded? What does the EU's Digital Markets Act mean for indie developers? Lucas brings data on install-to-pay conversion rates and ad revenue benchmarks; Luna challenges assumptions about UX and market timing. They talk about the craft of the product, the business of the store, and the tension between growth and profitability. This is not a 'how to code your app' show. It is for product managers, founders, and investors who want to understand the mobile app business as a business — its unit economics, its platform risks, and its next frontiers. Can an app survive without venture capital?
