HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (319 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

used to be such a good app (been using it for more than 5 years), but it is now pretty much garbage. sad, considering it was so good before. information is now almost non-existent, except for a rough position (within 100-500m). wont use it again.
