리뷰가 말하는 불만
경쟁앱 리뷰 90개에서 추출
- “Trying to use weight converter and the adds at the bottom block the numbers.”
- “the ad at the bottom of the screen covers over the ZERO. It is IMPOSSIBLE to enter a zero.”
- “I can't get to the decimal key because your pop-up ads block it.”
Treat the keypad and result area as sacred space that nothing ever overlaps. A converter you can always actually type into is the whole pitch here.
- “Hate the ads for porn. Deleting it minutes after installing it.”
- “people don't want to see naked women while trying to see what temp their oven should be.”
- “2 stars for showing me porn when I want to convert miles to km.”
Ship with no ad network at all. A clean screen for free users is a real differentiator people are emotional about, not a nice-to-have.
- “Now they want $25.00/year.”
- “But the only option is to subscribe, lol, we're not doing that.”
- “Why did you make it a premium for functionality?”
Keep all everyday conversions free. If you charge, use a one-time unlock for niche extras. Never gate basic units behind a recurring fee.
- “you have to erase the last number digit by digit before you can enter a new number to convert.”
- “Would be perfect if you could easily swap back and forth. It's really tedious to scroll to find inches then cm.”
One-tap clear and one-tap from/to swap, plus pinned recent pairs so common conversions are instant instead of a scroll hunt.
- “today lm missing 'microns'. missing ft-in.”
- “I want to convert linear miles to klicks (kilometers) NOT SQUARE MILES.”
- “I wish it had a liquids conversion option. Liters to quarts and gallons.”
Cover the everyday gaps people name: compound ft-in, linear distance, cooking liquids, microns. Get the common cases exactly right before adding breadth.
1인이 만들 수 있나
개발 난이도와 리스크를 분해
The build is a weekend of offline math and a clean keypad. Winning has nothing to do with code. It is about being found next to a 186k-review incumbent and finding money in a thing people expect for free.
만든다면, 이렇게
1페이지 기획서 (출발점, 정답 아님)
A unit converter that just converts: offline, no ads over the keypad, no subscription.
Everyday converters such as home cooks, travelers, tradespeople, students, and overseas workers who convert a few times a week and just got driven off their old app by ads and a paywall.
The most popular converters were bought and turned into ad and subscription machines. Ads cover the number keys, some are pornographic, and basic features now sit behind a paywall. People want the simple free tool they used to have.
- ·Offline conversion for length, weight, temperature, volume, area, and speed, with a keypad nothing ever covers
- ·One tap to swap from and to, and one tap to clear, so no deleting digit by digit or re-scrolling for units
- ·Pinned recent and favorite pairs like cm to in, kg to lb, C to F at the top for one-tap repeats
- ✕Any banner or popup ads near the input keypad
- ✕Subscription paywall on basic conversions
- ✕Live currency at launch, it needs rates and adds scope, hold it for a later unlock
- ✕Accounts, login, or anything touching location or personal data, privacy was its own complaint
One screen, six everyday categories, fully offline, no ads, free. Ship it and watch whether clean and free pulls any organic installs against the incumbent before building more.
Honest answer, weak. A one-time unlock around $2.99 for scientific units, currency, or niche conversions, with all everyday conversions free and ad-free. Subscription is off the table, it is the exact thing this market is fleeing. Plan for small revenue and use this as a clean portfolio piece or top of funnel.
솔직한 경고
이 기회의 가장 큰 함정
The whole market is rage-quitting the ad-and-subscription incumbent, but conversion is free in Google and the built-in iOS Calculator, so the same people won't pay you either. Clean and free wins downloads, not revenue.
