About this listen
The ultimate guide to building an app-based business - now revised and updated
Apps have changed the way we communicate, shop, play, interact and travel, and their phenomenal popularity has presented possibly the biggest business opportunity in history.
In How to Build a Billion Dollar App, serial tech entrepreneur George Berkowski gives you exclusive access to the secrets behind the success of the select group of apps that have achieved billion-dollar success.
Berkowski draws exclusively on the inside stories of the billion-dollar app club members, including Instagram, Whatsapp, Snapchat, Candy Crush and Uber, to provide all the information you need to create your own spectacularly successful mobile business. He guides you through each step, from an idea scribbled on the back of an envelope through to finding a cofounder, building a team and attracting (and keeping) millions of users, all the way through to juggling the pressures of being CEO of a billion-dollar company (and still staying ahead of the competition).
If you've ever dreamed of quitting your nine-to-five job to launch your own company, or if you're a gifted developer, a seasoned entrepreneur or just intrigued by mobile technology, How to Build a Billion Dollar App will show you what it really takes to create your own billion-dollar mobile business.

Great reference guide
I found the progressive nature of the book really helpful as I embark on my journey to build and launch both an app, and the business it will support. Love the frequent references to research and use in my actions.

Covers a lot or great factors
I wish I listened to this 5 years ago. Covers a lot of great factors that I had to learn the long way. Its good advice and should be considered in all app start up adventures. I do wish they made simple edits, by updating the stats on the company's they mentioned. Its 2020, a lot has changed.

Touches on everything
The book shares some great tips and insights into how to think and prepare your app for greatness. I really enjoyed this and gained a lot from it as someone who is on this journey themselves. it was narrated clearly and even at 1.4x I could follow it easily.

There is nothing that this book teaches you
Everybody knows Whatsapp sold for $19 billion, snapchat was good and Instagram was acquired and so on and so forth. The author clearly has no idea of how to build an app like that and is beating around the bush , repeatedly talking about apps that the world already knows. I have never rated an audio book earlier and I felt compelled to rate this, because of my disappointment.
