Research method
How does iOS Niche evaluate an app opportunity?
Each opportunity combines a narrow user problem with a current US App Store evidence snapshot and a scope that an indie iOS developer can realistically test. The result is a research brief, not a revenue forecast or a promise that the idea will succeed.
Latest App Store evidence snapshot: Oct 1, 2026
See plans and benefitsWhat evidence is included?
We show the Apple search query, matched apps, public ratings, cumulative rating counts, prices, versions, developers, and update dates returned for the US storefront. Every snapshot is dated and links back to the corresponding App Store listing.
What is an editorial hypothesis?
The niche wedge, target audience, monetization angle, and MVP scope are editorial hypotheses derived from the observed market. We label them separately from Apple-sourced facts and do not invent revenue, downloads, keyword volume, or historical rating growth.
How should you use the research?
Use a report to shortlist a problem, interview likely users, inspect recent reviews, and test willingness to pay before building. Recheck the live App Store because listings and ratings can change after the recorded snapshot.
