I have published an app on both Google Play and iTunes that allows the user to create fake magazine covers using either the device camera or photo from the device gallery. The app is named "Mag Your Pic". The app has over 160 templates to choose from and you can create realistic looking magazine covers easily and fast. Upload or take a photo, choose your magazine cover and share with friends on social media. Please take a look at the app and let me know what you think.

Yes, Im struggling to market my apps The iOS version has made some IAP sales but really going slow. My Google Play account was terminated for an entire year, I managed to re-appeal and eventually win after around 50 emails, so lost a lot of installs through the termination. Any advice on app promotion would be great, thank you.
To make an app successful, there are 2 aspects for you to struggle. One is the app quality, you have made it. Your app is well designed. Another is to boost your app in public to attract users. Also, it is difficult to reach the goal. For your reference, I would like to share you some methods for app promotion based on my experience. Free ones Exchange installs & reviews/Cross promotion Once you published your app in Store, you can market it with cross promotion with other apps by installs and reviews exchange. It is free while it is still hard to find that publishers like you. You may try some Cross-promotion networks (CPN), Facebook group or exchange forums. And there are many groups on networks where publishers can exchange installs and reviews each other. However, generating installs or reviews from users will take much longer time. Social media networks Having a Facebook Page for your app is a must-have where you can ask them how they like your app designs and features and any get feedbacks. Also, you can share any news about your app, etc. However, remember not to make your posts only about your app, though. That is boring. It’s like talking to someone at a party who only talks about themselves. Make a video Videos shows great ability even just 30 seconds, it has power to show users why the App is worth a try. Make up a story of your app? Show the real life? Yeah, both OK. Offline promotion Make connect with your friends and families. You may ask them to help you spread your app in their relationship circle. Also, participate in meetings or conferences that are relevant to your App, and make full use of it to build partnerships. Paid ones Buy app rating & reviews One app can get reviews, it must get installs firstly. Reviews provider like BestReviewApp will guide real users to install app, play and reviews it with ratings. This method will help a lot on app overall ranking. At the same time, the traffic is from real users which is organic. It will Not have bad impact on apps. Paid advertisements CPI ad networks would be better for app installs than CPC, CPM. Run advertisements on some Android forums, Google ads or social media, it is one common method for publishers to promote app. But you know, there are many people browsing Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc. There are less targeted audience for your app. Generate installs Higher ranking is extremely helpful for app visibility. App can get installs from users directly via download link. Or drive install via keyword search. The former method is straight forward install amounts singly. While latter one aims at helping app ranking in App Store search results. Keyword optimization also will guide real users to install the app via targeted keywords relevant to your app.
