I used to run a few mobile apps (serving with ads), the revenue is not so much, just around 200-300$/month but it's kind of a good passive income (because I lived in Vietnam at that time, the living cost there is so cheap, 500$ would be good for a family of 3 in one month).

Now moved to the US and stopped running the apps, the only thing I do out of office hours now is blogging and crypto trading, neither of them gained me any money :sobbing:

It was the iOS version of Google Keep (they didn’t have iOS version at that time). And when Google released their own iOS app, somebody reported my app, lol. It was taken down and for some reason, I gave up.
