The Mobile Startup: Episode 3 - New Relaxation App into an extremely overcrowded space.

I have just released "Relax Utopia": A new iOS app for relaxation, yoga and meditation, featuring scenic photography, music and nature sounds. There are no ads and no purchases.  You can get the app here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/relax-utopia-sleepy-sound-gallery/id1223240574?mt=8

The plan is:  to get as many users as possible, and get at the core essence of solving a very common consumer problem.   I also believe that while every other competitor is nickel-and-diming everyone on in-app purchases, I can figure out a better way to monetize the whole thing much later on in the cycle.  This app is going to remain free for a long time.  
Most importantly: this app is made on a reusable, generic platform, which can be used to quickly make similar apps in the future.  Currently, the bottleneck is by far marketing and distribution. 

I will mainly be looking for ways to customize it to what the majority of people want most.   Enjoy!





From the iTunes description:
This app is the ultimate nature relaxation experience for the iPad or iPhone. A Lush, Seamless flow of gorgeous landscapes and chill sounds to fill your senses. Everything happens automatically. Just lay back, relax, doze off, or simply leave this on your table, to get lost in Utopia. Use this for your yoga workout or meditation, relax after work, as you are going to sleep, or as an animated picture frame.
