Bro really tried to sell his subscribers a “50$ a year” subscription to a “wallpaper” app.
Interesting points about the “app”:
- the app has premium and free wallpapers
- the free wallpapers are only available in sd quality and if you want hd youd have to subscribe
- in order to unlock the sd quality you have to watch two 30 second ads.
- theres a wallpaper called “orange” thats just the color orange

Way more than that.
- requires crazy permissions like user location
- wallpapers are in a publicly accessible s3 bucket
- profit split for wallpaper creators is 50/50 which is worse than most app store splits
- most of the creators actually seem to be current MKBHD employees
- app is either built from a template or an old app that they bought
