About

Hey there! I’m Jonathan Gillman, and I’d love to share my journey with you. It all began in 2012 when I bought my first Android phone, the HTC Dream, also known as the T-Mobile G1. This device sparked a passion in me to create apps for the Google Play Store. With no formal training, I taught myself how to code and developed my very first app, a “Death Clock.” It was a quirky, satirical concept, but when I earned my first dollar from it, I realized that making a living as an independent app developer is possible, if I put in the work. As time went on, I created more apps. Some failed, but others thrived, amassing hundreds of thousands of downloads. The real turning point came when I got my first iPhone. Releasing my apps on Apple’s ecosystem was a game-changer, and it continues to be a blessing today.

My apps have evolved to help students with in-text citations, thesis statements, real estate investing, personal finance, and automation tools. I have many more exciting projects in the pipeline, spanning various niches.

The joy of sketching out app ideas and bringing them to life in native programming languages for iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and Windows 10/11 is unparalleled. The additional revenue is a bonus, but the real reward comes from the heartfelt messages I receive from users. Knowing that my apps have helped students succeed in college is incredibly fulfilling. However, I have some bittersweet news. Due to new endless policies, including Google’s requirement to reveal developers’ home addresses and the constant changes on the Google Play Store, I decided to discontinue support for Android apps as of July 8, 2024. I deeply appreciate the support from my Android users over the years, but the challenges have become too great.

On a brighter note, I’m still actively developing new versions of all my apps for the Microsoft Store, Apple App Store, and Mac App Store. Exciting new releases are on the horizon!

I’m always here to help with feature requests and any issues you might have with my apps. Just drop me an email. Here’s to many more years of innovation and success!

Cheers
