A Buzztouch app is #54 top paid!

Just scrolling around the App Store today and noticed that iFunny+ which is currently the #54 paid app, is undeniably a Buzztouch app - https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/ifunny+/id437525479?mt=8&uo=4 I don't know if Kristi Grubbs is an active forum member, but HUGE congrats to her. This is the highest paid ranking I have ever seen a Buzztouch app achieve (of course, I may have missed others). Seeing successes like this is exciting and inspiring..I'm really happy for her and happy for Buzztouch I hope it is not considered to be bad "forum etiquette" to link to other users apps. If the app developer or the BT team disapprove of this post and feel the need to delete it, I completely understand

Seems like all of her apps are from BuzzTouch. Lucky for her, she got a five star comment for the one that says "The app wont even open" !!! The remainder of her apps were last updated in mid-2012. This one was updated in March-2013. At $2 per download, that's mighty cool to be #54 on the list of paid apps! -- Niraj

Rock on! However unfortunately and ironically, I have found quite a bit stories like this this past week. I even have reached out to the members here ( both active and inactive on the forum)and they told me an unfortunate common reason why they are not vocal with regards to their successes. So many copycats out there that are people are nervous about being ripped off. As much as I too am fond that Miss Kristi Gubbs (assuming she is a girlie) has shown the success that can be achieved Buzztouch, I am now waiting for all the copycats after your post. Hopefully a model that is similar will appear and not her direct content. Either way congrats on the find and well wishes to everyone's creations! Sheri

Yup, good stuff. @Sheti has a good point and for sure we wish we could do more to prevent the copy-catters. I'll reserve comment on the number of me-too's we see around here :-) But, all that aside, rock on #54 paid. Somebodie's getting a few bucks stashed away!
